DARK CORNISH FOWL

Cornwall “DOUBLE BREASTED” 
Dark Cornish—‘“The Table Fowl Su- 
preme’”’. 
The Dark Cornish fowl is a grand old 
breed which was originated in England 
from the Jungle Fowl of India crossed 
with old English breeds, and bred up to 
its present state of perfection by Eng- 
lish and American breeders. 
Among Cornish breeders it has be- 
came known as “THE TABLE FOWL 
SUPREME” because of its delectable 
food quality, the enormous pheasant- 
like breast and the large cuts of legs, 
thighs, wings and back. The Cornish 
fowl is much sought for in the markets 
because of its quality and the larger 
percentage of meat per bird. 
The Cornish is a bird of stately ap- 
pearance, enormous size and weight, 
compact, flat iron-shaped bodies (dress- 
ed fowl of Cornish can be readily iden- 
tified by their peculiar shape, resem- 
bling an old-fashioned flat iron with the 
handle removed) light and closely set 
feathering. It is a fair layer (compares 
well with the American breeds), excel- 
lent mother and persistent forager. The

birds are light eaters, grow rapidly and 
are easily confined. 
We have produced five-pound birds 
in four months. This fast growing char- 
acteristic makes them good subjects for 
caponizing and a cross of Cornish with 
American breeds make excellent capon 
material and is used largely in the pro- 
duction of the “Chicken of Tomorrow”. 
Our stock originated from some of the 
best domestic blood lines and for the 
past four years we have mated all of 
our females with males that we have 
imported directly from Cornwall, Eng., 
the home of the Cornish fowl, from one 
of England’s prominent line breeders of 
“Cornwall” and “Clampitt” line Cornish. 
This infusion of new blood each suc- 
ceeding year has had a wonderful effect 
in the size, style, shape, station, sym- 
metery, stamina, solidity of flesh, com- 
pactness of body, type, carriage, plum- 
age and hardness of feathering in my 
young stock. 
We breed particularly for broad 
“Double” breasts, wide backs and heavy 
compact bodies. The imported cock in
