The Cornish Indian Games were some 3-cars ago introduced into this country from England, and while they at the time gave promise of becoming a popular market fowl, they for some reason or other, are not much bred here at the present day. Their weight is : cock, nine pounds ; hen, six and a half pounds. See Plate XII. The tenth class comprises Ornamental Bantams, other than Games. The breeds and varieties are numerous, but I illustrate only a few popular favorites in colored Plate SILVER-LACKD WYANDOTTKS. Bantams are bred mostly as pets for children, but are often profitably kept on city yards and village lots for their eggs and meat. For this service the Seabrights are an old and popular breed.
