Barnyard Fowl Takes the Place of Disappearing Game Birds-New Favourite On the Table of the Epicure-Long Lineage.
By MALCOLM MACDONALD.}
The world is no longer anfe for the guinea fowl.
A few years ago this particular Mype of barnyard creature was sure of long life and respectable aki nge. To-day the tribe faces constant threat of early appearance on the fashionable dinner tabic.
The evalution of the guinea has been one of the interesting phases of Ameri enn development. Until recent times the farmer found the fowl, more or less of a nuisance, with a.harah, penetrating cry that interfered with the peace of the household, The chief rongón for tolerating the creature's existence was his valve nas watchdog.., The far- eaching ery of the guinea has long, been recognized as an effective means of protection against marauders in the poultry yard.

Farmers Bee New Value. With the rising value of the guinea as a table délicacy the viewpoint of the farmer has experienced radical change. The fowl has gained an important place in barnyard economics. He is no longer raised with a flock of turkeys for the mere purpose of giving warnings "of midnight marauders. In the up-to-date poultry yard the guinea is recognized for qualities possessed by none of his neighbours.
This economic revolution has been brought about by the tendency of epicures to classify the gaines as worthy, of a place with the game birds, of the well-supplied dinner table. With the growth of population there is rapid disappearance of such treasured fowi a the grouse, partidge, quail and pheasant. The guinea has achieved widespread, vogue, as a gobstitute for the birds of this type. The demand for lle barnyard, for it increasinice each Year.

The shell of the guinea egg is thicker than that of the ordinary egg with which most of us are familiar.
This characteristic, combined with a darker colouring makes it difficult to test the juoduct by candling, and for this reason the guisen egg is in moro ar luka dis- favour with the average dealer.
Hens Are Best MotherA.
In raising guineas there is ample room to study the workings of the maxral instinct Students agree that the gain hen is by no means the best mother for her own chicks. First pluca for correct muthering is given the ordinary hen.. Results show that the Perdentage of successful development of the brood is much higher when the every-day type of chicken holds tha place of active parent to the young guines chicks."
The reasons are various. For one thing the mother guinen or the mother turkey cannot be trusted to keep the children's feet dry. In warm, dry weather the turkey and guinea hen uro successful yurdigna for the rising generation, but when there in rain or heavy dew tie babies are in sering dunger. The ruinen or turkey mother more thun it to drag the chicks through the w. grans, regardless of a lack of overshoot and the wetness and chilling cause many deaths among the misguided youngsters. .
Then there in the question of shelter. Neither turkey, hens nor guinea, hens can be persuaded to seek coop shelter at night and during storms. On the contrary these guardians will remain wherever they chance to be when over- taken by darkness or a rain. In conse quence many of the youngsters are killed by exposure to cold and damp- , as a result of the inadequate pro- tection provided by maternal "hover. ing."
Chicks Love Foster Mother. With the ordinary, hen na a foster -mother the guinea chick has a life of uage and safety.
