THE GUINEA FOWL. Demand for These Birds Shows Steady Increase in Cities. The great majarity of guinea fowls p are raised in small flocks of from 10 rto 25 upon farms in the middle west and in the south, but a few of the large poultry raisers, particularly those who are in within easy reach of the large eastern markets, make a practice of raising a hundred or so guineas each year. Many formers keep a pair or a trio of guineas more as a novelty than for profit, and from these a small flock is raised The guinea fowl doubtless would be more popular on farms were it not 1 for its harsh and, at times, seemingly never-ending cry, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. However, some people look on this cry as an argument in the guinea's favor, as it gives warning of marauders in the poultryyard. Similarly, their pugnacious disposition while sometimes causing disturbances among the other poultry also make them show fight against hawks and other common enemies, so that guineas sometimes are kept as ^ guards over the poultry yard. Often a few guineas are raised with a flock of turkeys and allowed to roost in the same tree, where they c. n give warning if any theft is attempted during the night. The value of the guinea fowl as a ^ substitute for game birds such as I. grouse, partridge, quail and pheasant becoming more and more recognizv ed by those who are fond of this class of meat and the demand for these lowls is increasing steaany. Many hotels and restaurants in the large cities are eager to secure prime young guineas and often they are served at banquets and club dinners as a special delicacy. When well cooked guineas are attractive in appearance, althought darker than common fowls and the flesh of young birds is tender and of especially fine fla vor, resembling that of wild game. ^ Like all other fowl, old guineas are r* very likely to be tough and rather l>4 dry. . <, o RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS Town of Kingstree, Quarter Ending 1 Dec. 31 1920.
