Of distinct English breeds the Dorkings have become tho most cele-

the mature cocks fully ten pounds, the hens eight to nine pounds, and at 
o year old from six to eight pounds. They are of good size, plump, 
compact, with strong heads, full wattled, and with single serrated comb, 
short necks, short white legs, with five toes, and full plump breast, the 
plumage pure white and without spot. They are tolerably hardy, good
