To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An experiment was once tried which will illustrate this. A pair of black pigeons was put in a large loft, and allowed to breed with- out any introduction of fresh blood. They were well and carefully fed. At the end of two years an account of them was taken. They had greatly multiplied, but only one third of the number were black, and the others had become spotted with white, then patched, and then quite white ; while the latter had not only lost the characteristics of the breed from which they ...descended, but were weak and de- formed in every possible way. The introduction of fresh blood prevents all this ; and the breeder for prizes, or who- ever wishes to have the best of the sort he keeps, should never let a fowl escape him if it possesses the qualities he seeks. Such are not always to be had when wanted, and the best strains we have, of every sort, have been got up by this plan. There is one thing worthy of remark : none of our fowls imported from warmer climates are subject to roup, as Spanish, Cochins, Brahmas, and Malays.
