son—Remove Defects.
By I. K. FELCH.
To fit birds for the exhibition season
Is an entire season’s work. It Is legiti
mate to remove all defective feathers that
nature may help you by a renewal of
color true to the breed For Instance,
Ftrav black feathers may appear in a
white specimen or appear In the white
or parti colored breeds, like Brahmas and
Columbian Wyandottes. Ts these foul
fathers are removed, nature often, in
fart in a majority of cases, produces a
feather that Is true to the color of the
bird.
Young cockerels often have their plum
age marred by the cruelty of a domineer
ing cock. Feathers thus damaged grow
narrow* and pointed beyond the wing
Perhaps the sickle feathers are injured
and these defective feathers if removed
xx ill be repuaced with good feathers of
proper color.
The only way w*e can keep stock in a
p r esentable condition is to remove all
defects, all excrescences and to remove
al broken plumage, otherwise the fowl
must wear his damaged feathers until
nature replaces them in the .fall.
The first thing that nature does in case
« ' a wound Is to try to repair It. In sin
gle combs or pea combs sometimes the
middle division grows too fast for the
M'|p divisions. If discovered In an early
s : age and the point is lanced with a sharp
lance* the growth will be checked until
1 • side divisions develop in keeping with
‘he middle division. Sometimes single
f i : Us develop into a twist. I saw* a mag
rificent Partridge Cochin pullet in a
” -nd's yard. He remarked that it was a

and I picked her up and lanced

BODY MEASUREMENTS
NEEDED FOR STANDARD
Among the most unscientific meth
ods of the many unscientific features
of t'he poultry breeding industry none
stands out more notably than the
present method of judging poultry.
The Standard of Perfection, which is
supposed to be the basis of all judg
ing, is a most incomplete volume at.
best. And it gives but a suggestion
of what judges ought to know about
the birds they are awarding prizes to.
A suggestion for adding measure
ments of body parts to the standard
of perfection has been well made in a
recent article tn Reliable Poultry
Journal, which is here given:
In response to your courteous request, 1
will state several points bearing on the
improvement of the Standard of Perfec
tion I will nbt in this article dwell on
the matter of artificial vs. natural stand
ards, but will confine myself to explain
ing a scientific system which wjll, I be*.
Sieve, sensibly strengthen the .standard
and appeal to progressive poultrymen.
Whether one’s tendencies are to empha
size the fancy or the utility features of
fowls, he must welcome a method which
makes the standard definite and decided
as to shape and size.
Some years ago I attended a great ag
ricultural exhibition near Berlin, Ger
many. One day as T stood watching the
judges of cattle at their work I noticed
one man using a pair of big calipers
measuring the important parts of the
body of the different cows In competition.
An assistant recorded the measurements
and these data were used In awarding
the prizes. Ever since that occasion 1
have hoped that the plan of accurate
measurements, according to a standard
of excellence, might be adopted in scoring
and judging poultry in America.
A Weakness of the Present Plan.
A very faulty feature of the present
plan of judging poultry is the dependence
resting on the whim of the poultry judge,
especially in regard to the size and shape
of the specimens.
Fanciers and breeders of fine fowls often
decline to exhibit their birds at a cer
tain show because they know the judge,
who is to place the ribbons, favors a
shape or size different front the ideal of
the poultryman. who avoids the danger
Os defeat by keeping his birds out of the
show
I have purchased pure-bred Barred Ply
mouth Rocks approaching Brahma' size
and a’ the same lime obtained a trio
of the same breed not more than two
thirds as heavy One breeder bad bred
largely for meal, while the other sought
to develop a strain that should produce
plenty of eggs as well as a reasonable
quantity of flesh Some breeders strive
almost solely for perfection in plumage
and neglect the body
Many breeders have sought tn increase
the size of Leghorns and in some oases
they have carried the process so far as
to destroy the delicate graceful curves of
the typical Leghorn shape and to produce
a block' bird with Wyandotte .or Rock
characteristics.
Standard Measurements.
Tn correct the tendencies tn extremes
and to establish a definite, decided size
and shape for each variety. I suggest add
ing to the weight specifications a stand
ard " r measurements of I" dy parts for
each breed, the same to apply to all va
rieties of the breed.
To determine fairly and accurately tin
proper proportions of the important parts
of the body, we shall need to have the
co-operation of many breeders of' prize
winning and choice birds of each brefd.
It was my purpose to work out the de
tails for on ■. of our leading American
breeds ic g. the Wyandottes, before I
placing tlte plan before the poultry pub? ■
lie. but I have concluded to offer the |
crude plan now and invite tlte assistance
of man? poultrymen. who, I feel sure, I
w ill be interested and will aid in develop- I
ing and perfet ting the plan.
Ever.' bleeder has a "best pair ' of Ijirds
of his favorite breed or variety l.et us
have the measurements of several hun
dred or a thousand of these birds which
in their scores approach perfection Then
n , „ hi fl*m the average breadth of skull,
width of brews'. '»ng'h <-f keel, width of
hips, depth of hndv length of bones of
wtng' and legs, length -oread of '*n’
bonet, and an,' other desirable measure-
THE ATLANTA’GEORGTAN AND NEWS. SATURDAY. JULY 13. 1912.
ments, and establish our standard on the
basis of the best, typical, symmetrical
specimens in existence.
Using the Measurements.
I need not dwell on the importance of
the relation of these body parts to each
other or to the brain, lungs, heart, di
gestive system and breeding organs, or
of the value of this system in studying
the utility problems of meat type, laying
type, etc.
The objection may he raised by the
showman or judge that it is too much
trouble and would require too much time
to take all these measurements in judg
ing large classes at an exhibition. An
swering this objection I would say that
specimens need only he measured when
the judge is in doubt or when his awards
are challenged. Then the measuring tape
and the calipers will quickly determine
which of the competing birds comes near
est to the standard measurements.
Furthermore. tlte fancier and even the
amateur will be able to make the meas
urements of his selected birds and ascer
tain which come the closest to perfection
according to standard
Again, it will bring the utility and fancy
breeders nearer together, because while
the plumage will still be a very Important
pari of the standard, shape will receive
full consideration and size will be em
phasized with definite regard for sym
metry. The proportional relation of the
body parts to each other and to per
formance or production will be fixed. Se
lection and mating will be on a more
definite basis and ea’-ler of accomplish-,
. ment than heretofore Young poultrymen
will be encouraged t engage in breeding
the best birds and poultry breeding will
become more progressive along natural
and scientific lines.
1 have ajready secured measurements
of fine fowls of several breeds, hut not
in sufficient numbers to strike an aver
age and state a standard. I will append
to this article a ’lst of measurements
which I suggest for triat I cordially Jn
vlte. poultrymen to measure their best
birds according to this system and report
results to me I will carefully consider
the data thus .collected, calculate aver
ages and report 1 shall welcome laying
records of the females and of the mothers
of the male birds measured. Any addi
tional measurements may he made and all
suggestions will, be candidly considered
and* credit given.

wish for blanks for recording measure
ments should write me a’ Brooking®. S.
