legs of a Cambridge Bronze. The advantage in crossing 

 these two varieties is that fresh blood is introduced, which 

 increases the size of the birds, and improves the laying quali-

 them for stock purposes, as they are of a mixed colour, of 

 course, not being pure. My own experience is it is better to 

 keep them pure, and procure fresh blood every year.
