Since caponizing is attracting 30
much attention all over the country,
the following from the pen OF MIR. J.

We do not write on this subject from

Perhaps many persons IN the Yves,

know what they are: but In the East

at one place that some parties were

get TO operate on. this being done when
the chickens were large enough TO fry.
The chickens We're then kept BY their
several owners until they matured. and
then sold TO the parties who did the

The lowest price obtained for them
was 10 cents per pound, and II the
