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.

While most people buy the
Brunswick because of its superior
tone and its ability to play
all records at their best, no one
overlooks the beautiful cabinet

In this particular, it is natural
that the Brunswick should be
supreme, for the House of
Brunswick has been noted for
nearly a century for its craftsmanship
in wood.
Brunswick makes its own cabnets?they
