to take me with her to the poultry: yard when she went to feed, helping me to toddle by her side with a scarf around my chest, under my arms; and she often expressed the hope that I would love to feed the hens when she was gone. Being raised on a farm and always a fancier means something in the development of the poultry breeder. Following your natural ‘bent helps any man. All my life I have stuck to the thing I like best. I think it I first had to have the poultry. and then constantly to breed it better, while telling the world about it via the poultry shows and the adâ€" vertising columns and catalogues. I now have 25,000 customers in the United States alone, and have a big business in every clvilized counâ€" try in the world, and several thousâ€" and custohers here in my native Dominion of Canada. There are beâ€" tween 7,000â€" and â€"8,000â€"Whiteâ€"Wyanâ€" _ Men who ought to know tell me that in the last twenty years I have built up perhaps the most profitable and largest fancyâ€"poultry business in the world. in addition i run a mixed general farm, over which my _ Wyandottes have unlimited range. Dairy cows, poultry, and hogs are my prosperity insurance. I have 200 acres of land which we call the Regal Poultry and General Farm. It lies on Silver Lake, skirtâ€" ing the village of Port Dover, Onâ€" tario, Canada. This farm and business are the realization of the ambition of my life. My dreams have come true even better than I had planned. When I was teaching in the high school, I used to build air castles, and plan and hope; but 1 never really thought my dreams would come so true as they have. I have capacity for this work because I love it; and it is capacity for work that the successful poultryman needs, for to go to the top with poultry you must have more kinds of equipment and ability than is reâ€" quired in most other «Jines. ‘The program that has made it possible for the business to succeed is this: Love of the chicken business was no doubt ‘bred in me.

He was placed in the breeding pen in December, and the eggs were very fertile. From ‘this mating a number of early chicks were hatched, and when the Dominion Exhibition of ‘Toronto ,came on the latter end of August the cockerels and pullets were full grown, and the pullets laying. 'l‘he] cockerel that headed this pen was | without a rival in a class of thirty. !Hls plumage had a dazzling white ness that made other birds look |ybliow. I named him Regal II. At , this show I was awarded the dip |loma and medal for best display, and since that time the name of Regal has become a familiar name | of breeders of White Wyandottes. I have throughout my work clung to my ideal of a stylish, attractive, cobby bird with plenty of size, but not overdone in anf way. Many judges have told me they can pick out birds of Regal ibreeding no matter where they see them. ‘ncy; are the sensible type, combining the fiseful and the beautiful. I have studiously avoided all fadsâ€"fads for the short body and the small bird, going al for color and size and to disregard shape, which fad was --l tirely wrong, as shape should be the outstandihg characteristlc of a I was very fortunate in obtaining my foundation stock to get several hens almost ideal in shape and color, at least in those days. These hens I bred to a quickâ€"maturing cockerel of an excellent heavyâ€"laying strain. The pullets from this mating I bred to the grand old cock bird, Regal I., a firstâ€"prize Ontario winâ€" ner. This bird proved to be a won: derful breeder, and he stamped his excellence on the whole flock. He was a wonderfully vigorous bird, standing very wide, fullâ€"breasted, and broad in every section. He had a fieryâ€"red eye and extra good head points. ' only the best. One strain would exâ€" cell in shape, anotherâ€"imtâ€"cotor; anâ€" other in head points; but they all excelled in utility qualities, I deâ€" cided that it would be unwise to use a strain that was not strong in utility qualities, no matter how strong the show quality. These strains I gradually combined into a new one, and I called it the "Regal" strainâ€"the success of which, along both fancy and utility lines, has become history. ; When I began breeding White Wyandottes 1 obtained the ver; choicest stock from several of the leading strains that it was possible for me to get. I was compelled to do this because I could not find any one straim having all the qualificrâ€" tions that I wanted. It pays to get Shortly ‘before this decision I had quit highâ€"school teaching and was in the piano business with my two brothers. The White Wyandottes took me ahead so fast that I sold out my interests in the piano busiâ€" ness to devote all of my time to poultry and the farm. White Leghorns, which 1 kept for five years. White Coching I kept ‘during 1391â€"1892;~~and "wbout ~this time 4 had Brown Leghorusâ€" also. â€" My White Leghorus were of the 1 had started keeping White Wyandottes during the year of the Panâ€"American Exposition, 1901. At the Panâ€"American a beautiful lot of White Wyandottes were exhibited. And among the winners were some exceptionally fine specimens in type, color and condition. I was one of the many admirers of this popular white fowl at this great show, and perhaps no one observed and studied these White Wyandottes any more closely than I did. Look:â€" ing back on that occasion, I can see wherein it was the most momentous one in my career as a poultry fancier; for it was there and then that I decided to make this breed my sole specialty. Within two years the results were so gratifying that the keeping of White Wyandottes became my main occupation. years, just as a hobby on the home farm. But ! made no business of Some time after taking up the Barred Rocks I obtained the White faced Black Spanish and kept them developed thisâ€"Mock all through one hen that produced the best eggs, from which I was able to rear about forty pullets the first year. After disposing of all the White Leghorns, I tried the Partridge Cochins and Langshans, all the time keeping Barred Plymouth Rocks. Late in the nineties, before I finally decided upon White Wyarldottes as best adapted to my purposes. I, kept some Golden Wyandottes and some White Minorcas. It was the fine laying of the Golden Wyandottes that led me to take up the white variety. for s Story __. _ Limb&® up! _ Quit complaining! Get a small trial bottle of old, honest &t.
