IMPERIAL PEKIN DUCKS. 



The Imperial Pekin Duck is the most popu- 

 lar of all ducks, and is most extensively raised. 

 They are large white ducks, in many in- 

 stances they are a rich creamy white, but this 

 rich color does not show at all times, only 

 when they are in full feather and in prime 

 condition. They are very hardy, having seen 

 ducklings at the age of eight weeks weigh 

 over four pounds and in full feather. They 

 are splendid layers, having been known to 

 lay as high as 75 eggs in succession, but they 

 lay best when in small flocks. If kept in large 

 flocks they do not lay so well. Their eggs 

 usually hatch well, and ducklings are strong 

 and vigorous. Pekin Ducks usually weigh 

 from 7 to 9 pounds each. Setting of eleven 

 eggs. $2.00 Drake, $3.00 ; Hen, $2.00.

WHITE HOLLAND TURKEY. 



Are more domestic in disposition than 

 Bronze varieties. They present a very fine 

 appearance either in the flock or when 

 dressed. They are great layers and make good 

 mothers for their young, not being much in- 

 clined to roam about and get the poults wet 

 and chilled. Mature Toms weigh 25 to 30 

 pounds, and Hens 16 to 18 pounds. This 

 variety is coming into great favor, and 'we 

 consider them an excellent one. The young 

 are very hardy and quite easily raised. We 

 have a choice flock of these excellent Turkeys, 

 giving them free range on a farm. Give them
