We want to write just a word or two as to the difference between a Strain for the production of eggs and of Show Birds. It must be remembered that a great laying Strain cannot be, at the same time, a Show Bird, at least not under the present requirements of the Association, because a great egg layer must have size, and must be bred to produce size, and not inbred to secure fancy Show points, which produce a bird without constitution, and eggs from birds of the show class are small, the fertility runs low, and, in many instances, their hatchability is so poor as to be hardly worth speaking of. Corning Largest Specialty Farm in World The Corning Strain Single Comb White Leghorn is an egg machine, a large bird, of vigorous constitution, and typical Leghorn shape. The Corning Egg Farm is the largest poultry farm in the World devoted entirely and exclusively to one single purpose--the developing and breeding of the great egg machine, Corning Strain Single Comb White Leghorn. Points That Mean Success Just to repeat in regular order the points a Breeder must observe if he is to make a permanent success: Suitable location for houses and runs. Properly planned, arranged and constructed houses. Right breeding stock. Hatching eggs from a farm that has “made good.” Care in incubating and brooding. Proper handling of the pullets and cockerels. Careful selection of breeders. Regularity in feeding and attending. Properly balanced ration. Clean, sanitary quarters, fresh water, and pure air, all the time. Constant adherence to one Strain, and that the best Strain. Be jealous of your reputation, because it is on your reputation that you build up a demand for breeding stock and eggs for hatching. Care, and courtesy, and regularity in serving customers. You will know after reading this Book that on the Farm we have little idle time on our hands, and yet we are always willing to advise and help those who are really seriously seeking information, and who are willing to accept what we may be able to give them, in addition to the contents of this Book, and in our regular way of furnishing it. THE AUTHORS. BUILDINGS ON THE CORNING EGG FARM AND MANY HANDY DEVICES These plans and drawings are of sufficient size to show quite clearly the construction of every building on the Farm. Those who care to do so are entirely welcome to duplicate the entire Plant, or any part of it. As the dimensions are also given, it is a simple matter to reduce the size of the buildings to suit a flock of any number, because, as we have made clear in the Book, the Corning Method and Buildings are equally suitable for the largest flock, or the few hens and a rooster kept by the average family.
