In drawing up a standard for this variety it is neces- sary to note that what is usually recognised as Ticked, namely, the presence of dark feathers on thighs, and of dark underflue, cannot well be admitted ; and seeing that variegation in some form or other is the ol)ject aimed at, therefore it is necessary that a wcU- dehned Cinnamon mark or tick must be clearly dis- ccrnilile. And as an Evenly-marked liird is the highe t form of variegation, it is desirable the object of breeders should be directed to try for the nearest approach to evenness of markings, wliilst still retaining all the essential Yorkshire cpialities, so that while form and a|)proximate excellence in marking will count above equally good form and merely irregular variegation, still superior jorni will count above ani/lliinii in this class. (The I-;venly-marked liirds of this variety will have to be shown and judged as ICvenlx -marked Yorkshires.) Type and length as for other Yorkshire varieties. Slia[ie Maxinaim Head.
