To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some breeders hold that in mammals if a pure-bred female becomes pregnant by a mongrel she is forever after incapable of bearing pure-bred offspring. Poultrymen, how- ever, do not hold such extreme views. It is doubtful whether it has been clearly shown that the breed- ing qualities of a pure-bred hen have been injured by a previous mating. Cross-breeding has rendered a great service in the formation of new breeds. The Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes are familiar examples of breeds formed by cros...sing well-established breeds. It is of doubtful economy to cross pure-bred fowls of well-established races, except for special pur- poses which will rarely be of service to the general farmer. It may happen that skilled poultrymen will find it to their advantage to cross distinct breeds for Pure-bred Stock 163 the production of a speciality which has become quite famous. Successful practices of this kind are comparatively few, and are of foremost interest to the speciaUst. Whenever pxu-e breeds are crossed it is for the production of a merchantable product, and the use of these fowls for the production of pm-e- bred stock is therefore lost.
