Heavy Fowl that Lays White Eggs
The United Stales Department of
Jtgrieulture is very proud of a new
howl which cne of the experts of its
Bureau of Animal industry has produced
by nine years of careful breed
Ing. This expert is Henry M. Lamon,
after whom the bird has been called
"Lamona." The great advant' gcs
which tliis fowl haa over other breeds
is that it combines the heavy qualities
of the Plymouth Pock with the white
ggs of the white leghorn.
In the Journal of Heredity (Menoaha,
Wis.) Mr. Lainon describes in deSail
the long process of breeding by
which he has developed this remarkable
bird. He says*
"At the present time au of our general
purpose breeds of chickens are
tayers of brown eggs. At the same
time some ox the best markets of the
aotmtry show a preference for whiteshelled
eggs and pay an increased,
price for them, which is an important
consideration to the man who is producing
market eggs on a commercial
scale."
But the white leghorns, which labile
white eggs, are not heavy enough
xbr food purposes and, therefore, do
not recommend themselves to the
farmer who needs fowls for eating as*
well as for laying.
Mr. Lamon started with a stocky
aHver-gray Dorking hen and a white
Plymouth Rock rooster. The chickens
from their eggs he bred to a single
comb white leghorn. In the sue

hiekens that most nearly approached
the standard he had set, interBreeding
them until he reached the
ideal. In his article he tells the details
of the process step by step, and
shows pictures of the hens and roosters
which participated.
There were other qualities which
Hr. Lamon sought, besides flesh and
white eggs. These were yeliow skin,
yellow legs, red comb and four-toed
feet. These complicated the process
sard the breeder is not yet perfectly
yatisfied. But the new Lamona breeds
true, which is the main thing.

Florence Potato Growers Realize

Two thousand barrels of Irish pota- r

$2.00 per barrel was the result of or- e
ganization and cooperation among 1:
Florence county farmers during the

the market. t'
To start at the beginning of this
story, a contract was made, before the u
time for marketing, with a buyer who ii
was attracted to the Florence potato p
market again this year because of the t!
satisfactory way in which potatoes c
were handled in that market in 1920. 1<
Then the leaders in the Florence pota- c
to organization put on a campaign for b
proper digging, grading, packing and
shipping of the crop. Instructions i;
were given by letter to all member' ij
growers and assistance was given t:
where needed. .n
Potatoes were ?equired to be ma-1
chine graded, and growers who did b
not have enough potatoes to warrant
buying graders individually were aided
in securing graders jointly. Strict' p
grading was required for the market g
was falling, and on a falling market 1;
grading is doubly important. |s
Farmers who did not work through j,
the organization received $2.00 per (_
barrel for their potatoes, tl.us paying' o
a big penalty for their failure to real-' h
ize in time the value of organized ef-1 fort.
