Fine parents 
make better birds 
Feathers make pretty birds —none 
prettier than Kerr-bred poultry. 
But it is breeding that makes 
egg production. We point 
proudly to the heavy laying 
stock back of Lively Chicks. 
Every chick has a dam that 
passed rigid flock culling. She 
laid profitably or made potpie. 
We entered pens of our breeding 
in the big 1923 competitions— 
and they won. From pedigreed 
stock like this come our cock¬ 
erels to mate with pure-bred, 
farm-raised pullets, giving you 
Lively Chicks, bred to lay. 
Full count delivery, alive and 
vigorous, is guaranteed. We 
will refund or replace, if any 
should be lost in transit.

{Continued, from page Vf) 
Now to be sure, as far as meat is con¬ 
cerned, the Leghorn is nothing to brag 
about. But it has been our experience 
that it pays best to get the young roosters 
off to market in the shape of squab 
broilers. Getting them off early saves 
feed and a whole lot of bother, releasing 
a lot of valuable time for additional care 
of the pullets. 
Easy to Select Layers 
There is another feature of the Leg¬ 
horn that means a whole lot to us and 
that is the ease with which it is possible 
to identify the layers in the fall. They 
stand right out in the flock as though 
they were birds of another color. In 
fact they are of a decidedly different color 
compared to the non-laying cull that 
pays more attention to primping up and 
keeping her feathers clean than she does 
to the egg basket. By selecting out the 
k layers every fall we have been able to 
w build up quite a breeding pen -with the 
result that the average production of our 
flock is considerably above the average. 
As far as eggs are concerned, there is 
not a breed that we know of that can 
compare with Leghorn. I’d like you to 
print this to see if anyone has a breed to 
nominate to take the little white bird’s 
place.—J. H. D., New York.
