1905 LETTERS FROM SECRETARY SILVER WYANDOTTE CLUB of AMERICA









Boosting the breed ,a very important part of the early days of a breeds life, these two letters from the Secretary, outline what is happening concerning yearbook to be published and extra last minute advertising available,to all interested.Competition from other breeds is mentioned to let the reader know not to be slack in response, if this is the breed they want to prosper by they need to work hard on behalf of their club. 


The early days of hen fever and continuing new colours and breeds are somewhat like pyramid selling, the early ones on board with the new breed have most to gain, it was only the strong commercial , exhibition birds that would survive. most breeds, and colours within them had  BOOM  at some point or another, and then in the 1930's the commercial aspects of certain strains, developed in the 1920's with trap nesting, laying contests, progeny testing, brought forth a second BOOM for certain breeds.
