"Evidence is not only lacking to wpport the contention that there g5 an egg-laying type in the do- mum: (owl (type here balms eon- gidered from the standpoint oi skeletal structure), but s11 avail- able evidence suggests that. tbs type oi the bird, as influenced by the skeieton, has no significant re- lationship to egg-producing ability." Thus. Morley A. Juli, iorm rly oi

_ Msedonad College, disposes oi the disputed view that there is an egg- laying type pi the domestic fowl which can be picked out by its vis- ible physical characterlstiu. _

In order to secure definite ovi- dence as to whether there is any significant relationship between the so-called type oi laying iowl and its laying ability, an extensive survey was carried out by Professor Juli and assocla‘ on’ the United States Department oi Agriculture. All the leading poultry authorities were consuited, and a. number oi m asurements oi live birds. car- casses. and bones oi dead birds were made. The conclus'ons arriv- ed at, in addition to the tact that it is not posshle ior the human to separate‘ good irom poor breeders based on diiierencrs in sc-calied "body type" were ss iollowsz-
