Descrizione

In preparing it the writer has endeavoured to preserve the same plain and practical character which Obtained for the Practical Poultry Keeper such a wide popularity. Theo retical discussions have been eschewed except in a very few cases, where a few words seemed likely to throw practical light on questions of deep interest to pigeon fanciers, such as the origin of Tumblers and of Tumbling, and the true ideal standard for Owls and J acobins. The object has been to get the greatest amount of practical information on practical points into a small space. How far that Object has been attained must be left to the judgment of the reader.
