THE POUTER AND OTHER HIGH-CLASS BREEDS, WITH SOME REMARKS OK THE MINOR VARIETIES. Jn writing on fancy pigeons it has generally been the practice to say something about their origin, but in all the works that I have perused I think the writers left the matter as they found it. I have not the slightest pretensions to put forward as a scientist, and therefore what I might say would be little thought of by those laying claim to that title; while, on the other hand, the opinion of the most learned naturalist, without great experience in breeding fancy pigeons, would be of very little weight with the unbelievers in the stockdove or rock-pigeon theory. For myself, I have never in fifty years' experience of pigeon breeding seen anything to make me a believer in that theory; neither have I seen in the writings of any naturalist anything strong enough to convert me. I will therefore leave it, as others have done, to be still a bone of contention, and proceed to give my views on some of the most beautiful varieties, troubling myself little about how they originated or where they were bred in the first stages of their existence. The bird used to be called the English pouter, and rightly so, for it was beyond question first bred in London, but, as we have done a good deal in Scotland to preserve it when neglected in its native place, I think the simple heading is quite sufficient. It is hopeless at this time to say for certain how it was first brought up to something like what it now is. Moore's origin of cropper and horseman I cannot receive as a likely one, for what could the horseman --a coarse carrier--give except the serious fault of "rumping" which Moore lays to its charge. The old Dutch cropper, as I remember it, was far more likely...
