~ Now that Christmas is over, we
'must all make our bow to the New
Year of 1926. January, from time
‘ immemorial, has been known as the
month of beginnings, and as we stand
‘on the threshhold of the year we
should realize that the world is full
of unfinished business. The New
Year opens wide the door of oppor
‘tunity; so let us welcome that which
‘ it brings us, and make this the very
best year of our lives. Let our
motto for the New Year be: ‘“Let
us make the world a Brighter and
Better Place for our Being in it.”
Again we extend to one and all the
wish that they may enjoy peace,
good health and happiness to the
fullest extent every day of 1926!”
’ Cold wind and ice and frost! A
good time to creep in by the fire and
}v:atch the blaze, while we think over
big things for the days to come.
Just the time to plan for better
‘crops. Winter won't last long. So
‘pile on the hickory sticks of courage,
faith and hope. Let the wind howl
outside! It is good and warm in
here and the world is a good place
to live in!

Frank E. m Poultry Spe
cialist, of the Georgia State College
of Agriculture, has the following in
formation concerning selection and
care of males for breeding:
Now that the mating season is al
most on us, we should give particular
attention to the male birds which we
intend to use for the coming breeding
season,
‘All during the brooding season and
Summer we should have culled out
all of our weakest and slow growing
males so that by now we would have
a good lot of young males with only
our healthiest and most vigorous
cocks saved from last breeding sea
son.
Before going over the males * for
their final selection, it is well to look
over the females, remembering that
only good healthy hens and well ma
tured pullets can successfully be
used as breeders. Count the num
ber of females and figure under av
erage conditions that it will require
1 male to 10 females for the heavy
breeds; with 1 male to every 12-15
females in the lighter breeds. This
will vary ‘depending on the vigor of
males and conditions. under which
birds are cared for. :
The outstanding factor in the se
lection of a male bird is vigor. In
these days of breeding and high egg
production, we have sacrificed vigor
to some extent. Males which show a
good clear eye, broad head, glossy
plumage, good bone and have made
good growth are vigorous individuals.
Cockerels to be used as breeders
must be well matured. Do not use
birds that are dull, inactive, which
show no fight and are not good eat
ers. See that the bird stands up
well, is not knock-kneed, has plenty
of life and fight. The best ones
seem to be able to crow the loudest,
‘and move about very sprightly.
Having gone thus far in the se
‘lection, handle the best birds, ex
amine for defects, such as, faulty
plumage, deformed back. Don’t hes
itate to eliminate any birds showing
standard disqualifications. A good
\male bird should possess the follow
ing characteristics:
The head should be broad, fairly
long. Avoid birds with snaky head.
The face should be smooth and free
from wrinkles and fat. The eye
large, oval, bright, prominent and
full of color. Wattles of good quali
ty, thin and even. Comb of good
texture, fitting the head nicely, not
too coarse. It appears that most of
our Leghorn males are running to too
beefy combs. A good stout, well
curved beak. is desirable. Avoid a
bird with a thin, straight beak as it
indicates weak constitution.
The neck should be well arched
and stout. Long necks are charac
teristic of weak birds. The hackle
of the male should be abundant.
The breast should be well rounded
and carried well forward. Avoid fat
breasts, particularly where they cut
up sharp into the thigh.
Always select a bird with a good
‘broad back, as capacity is manifested
‘here. Length goes with depth.
Good strong wings carried close and
well folded.
Tail carried at proper angle and
well spread with shanks and feet
straight, stout, not too long and
showing good bone.
The bird that is symmetrical with
a good finish is desired. The wing
feathers should be broad and strong,
body feathers broad and the webbing
good. Feathers should be tight.
Loose, stairy, unkept feathers indi
cates either disease or poor condi
tion.
Before the birds are mated, see
tHat none have long, sharp spurs.
Where males have been running to
gether peacefully without fighting,
upon being mated up they may at
tack each other and are liable to in
flict permanent injuries, -
Do not keep birds too fat or too
thin. In either condition they are
very poor breeders.
Having selected the right kind of
birds it is well to insure good fer
tility by keeping the males in good
condition. Green feed is just as
necessary for the male as for the fe
male. Examine males often to see
if they are in fair flesh; if not, feed
them an extra amount of grain, If
they are mated, have the pen ar
ranged so that it will be easy to care
for them.
