The pure-bred male is exerting a tre- inendous influence upon the quality of the poultry flock everywhere. An enor- mous business in the aggregate is done every season in this country in the sale of pure-bred cockerels for breeding purposes and the business will continue to grow as more of those who are engaged in poultry culture come to gel acquainted with the results obtained from the introduction of these pure-bred males into their flocks. With the aid of male birds from a well- bred flock of some pure breed, a flock of common fowls can be greatl\' improved in uniformity, in size, and in egg produc- ing ability in the first generation and their profitableness greatly enhanced from a comparatively small investment in the males introduced into the flock. Espec- ially is the gain great, where cockerels are purchased from some strain which has merit in the purely practical qualities. That there is a very great difference in the profit winning capacity of different strains of pure-bred fowls is not as gener- ally recognized as it should be, for the benefit of those who are purchasers
