Utility Poultry Club
The third monthly report has been issued, and it may interest some of our country readers to learn that an Eaton Bray Poultry Keeper heads the list in the 16 weeks laying competition now being carried on under the rules of the above club.
As the competition is open to all England, this is highly creditable to Mr Caleb Bird, whose four Wyandottes produced 164 eggs, each one over 1 1/2 ozs in weight, during three months ending Jan 16th.
