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.

OUR NEW MINISTER

Denman Thompson and George w.
Ryer'S comedy. Our New Minister"
will he presented at the New Ogden
Theatre, Sunday. Oct End.
With the original cast and all
scenic effects and accessories that dis
tinguished its metropolitan run The
comedy Is by the authors of The
Old Homestead" 1t is a humorous
tale Of life in small village. Hard
scrabble is the name OF the settle
ment In the state of New Hamp-
shire The humor of the play is
evolved from the quaint ways, say
ings and dougs of a score of rustic
characterizations. 1t is very funny
and amusing In the way the story
carries the folks through the play,
the ministerial element is the least
of the plays factors The comedy in
a word Is broad inlOol at the quaint
people OF a small country town
Among the many amusing types
shown are the four original rubes,
country constable who imagines
himself a great thief catcher, and
Sltinflint known as the meaneSt man
In Ll1ardScrabble. and another Hard
scrabbem known as the best informed
man about the village, the postmaster,
veritable encyclopedia of names,
dates and general information. The
boy from New York, the town tattler,
the old minister, also the new minis
ter. Then too. is presented a Hard
scrabblcT just released from a term
in the county prison, his daughter,
the minister's sister and others. Part
OF the town doesn't want the released
prisoner back in It's midst. another
part welcomes the eX-prisoner'S re-
turn. This creates the friction that
moves the situations. The scenes are
mostly humorous, although as in the
other big success by the same au-
thors. The Old Homestead" there
is an underlying current of serious
ness. 1t is generally conceded that
at least five of the characters OF the
comedy roles, are OF biG enough in
tereSt To be called star parts. The
comedy is in three acts. the first act
showing the postpf1ce and country
store in Hardscrabble; the second,
the sitting room at the parsonage,
and the third the workshop of the
