Mass. He won a special as the whitest bird in the show. Some Impressions of the Great Georgia Poultry Show By JUDGE F. J. MARSHALL. W. G Archer’s iirst pen of Buff Rocks was wonderfully uniform in color and shading, a quality hard to get in buff. The type was good, too. The second prize pen of White Rocks, owned by Paul Wright, city, contained a cock of remarkable type and breeding, as w’ell as show qualities. He would have made a hit in the singles. The first prize Barred Rock cock, owned by the Atlanta Poultry Yards, is a wonder, such as one does not see in years of judging, with that clean, clear-cut sharp barring so hard to get as every Rock breeder well knows. Such a bird is almost worth his weight in gold. In the third prize pen of Black Orping tons of K. L. Sutton, Clarkston, is a hen that stands out as one of rare merit. She has that broad, heavy type of body, with the bottle green plumage shining like so much glass. The cockerel heading the pen of Black Orpingtons, owned by Southland Poultry Yards, Clarkston, Ga.. is only seven months old. but shows great possibilities. The tail is not out in full, but with that developed and the broaxler boily of more age will make a bird to he heard from. The first prize Browm Leghorn pen of H. T. Boyd, of Sweetwater. Tenn., win ning sweepstakes of the show, deserves more than a passing notice. The hens are uniform in coloring of back and wings, being that soft willowy brown so hard to secure. The cockerel is fine in style and snappy ami bright in the black st pipings of neck ami saddle. ’l’he Red Pyle Bantam cock, owned by The Bantamry. city, is one of the In st stationed birds 1 have evor handled. He has that low <arrie<l whip tail, long shanks and clean snaky head. Watch the game fanciers look at him. Atlanta Poultry Yards, in their Houdan exhibit, are showing two of the best hens Hogs.

This is one of the old and reliable breeds that is gradually coming into prominence again. Coop No. 790. White Orpington pen, owned by H. O. Kefersteln, Hilliard, Fla., contained a male bird of sterling worth, but the hens were not properly mated with him to win. A. V. Clifton, of Stone Mountain, Ga.. is mighty proud of his first prize Black Orpington pullet and well he may be. She is good in comb, broad, deep amd car ries a good shaped tail. She is not quite up to her prime, either. About four weeks more will help her very much. The first prize White Wyandotte cock erel, bred and owned by M. F. Morris, Stone Mountain, with the eceptions of a slightly defective comb and sickle feath ers of tail not full, is mighty near what a particular Wyandotte breeder is looking for.
