THESE FONL DO NOT CROSS THE ROAD Gertain Breeds Stay Put When, Automobiles Approach Rloomsburgh, Pa., Dee, b= Al- though the reason a chicken crosses the road never has been settled to the satisfaction of everyone, the fact that most fowls attempt to get on the other side of the highway is responsible loss to farmers in this part of the e, and many other sectlons. Automobile mortallty” is one of the chlef sources of loss to poultry- ment, it s declared, and two pro- tective steps are belng taken. ©One fs the removal of the chicken pens to points far distant from the road, and the other the breeding of birds that have shown, under observation, a readiness to stay on their own side of the road when an automoblle cemes along. 7 Tests made with nearly 100 flocks of a certaln breed revealed but a half dozen chickens which went ross the road. With other breeds there were less than a half dozen of entire flocks along the road which did not try to cross. Some of the farmers are not slow to realize the differesce and are furning to those breeds which “stay put” and avold the losses, On farms along main highways the logses to flocks from motor cars hine heen as high as 25 per cent. Tn wome cases a single passing automo- t11e has killed four chickens G ierman Teams}er.
