jarred PI\?mouth Hocl(s- q^HE BARRED PLYMOUTH ROCK has been termed America's Idol. It can be depended upon to yield a generous supply of eggs and savory flesh. For meat, size, laying qualities, vigor, quick growing and attractiveness combined there is no breed that will not suffer by comparison. This difficult union of qualities makes the Barred Plymouth Rock a peiennial favorite. For market they are one of the best, being large, with plump bodies and full breast, with clean yellow legs and skin. For table fowls the)^ have but few equals, being sweet, juicy, fine-grain- ed, tender and delicate. As layers they are considered above the average. A larger percentage of their eggs hatch and fewer of their chicks die than any other breed. They always mature early and are splendid foragers, fast growers and compactly built, very hardy and healthy. The hens are the most patient and best of mothers, so determined are they to bring up a family that they often adopt stray chicks. Prices: Choice cockerals S1.5(i; good cockerals $1.25; pullets $1.00 to $1.25; trio $3.00. Yard No. 1. This yard is mated and headed with an extra fine cock up to standard size, well barred, with dark clean cut bar, he is medium dark in color.
