WoMENS HATS GROW LARGER
AND LARGER EVERY YEAR
Why Freight and Express Rates on
Millinery Goods Are Raised.

Waa shington, April 7-Women's
hats have been growing larger and
larger every year. They have also been
growing lighter and lighter in weight.
SO now woman's hat weighs less and
takes up more room than they did ten
years ago. A freight or an express
car will hold only tenth of the hats
it once did, and the carriers raised the
rates to make up the difference.
That is the answer of the railroads
and express companies to the COM
plant of the Millinery Jobbers' ASSOC
citation, which was heard before the
interstate commerce commission today.
1t was purely a question of hats, into
which the length of the pins does not
enter. The milliners say the rates are
too high and the carriers say the evo-
luton of the headgear simply made
them put on the increase.

Demand for Capons.

There is a market for capons in all
large cities, where they find sale at
much higher prices than common
fowls. The season for them is from
the holidays till young broilers come
In early summer. The commission men
are anxious to get them, because they
are ready sale and move quickly.
Every farmer and poultryman could
add much to his income from poultry
each year by caponizing all Of the
male birds and feeding and holding
them for the winters trade. The same
method is always used with hogs and
beef cattle, which sell for only five
to eight cents pound, while capons
sell at from ten to twenty cents a
pound, which is very large profit on
even high priced grain.
