Excerpt from How to Win Poultry Prizes
Man is combative, fond of emulation, and ever on the alert to possess something new. These peculiarities show themselves in various ways: sometimes in the display of dress or equipage, sometimes in trials of personal strength or endurance, and in other cases we see only a generous and good-natured competition about the possession of some desirable and useful article of property. This rivalry often causes genuine improvement in live stock, and results in benefit to all parties concerned.
