It is believed by
■hoee who have studied the matter
that the male has more influ-
mce than the female in transmit-
ting egg-laying qualities to the off
spring.
Inexplacable as thus ap
pears, experience seems to confirm
i.
These gentlemen, acting on
the theory, are breeding from hens
bred through generations of high
isvers and using males from the
vonderful O. A. C. 300 egg strain.
And they offer in our advertiseng
