WHY NOT CAPoNIzE TURKEY
Improvement in Quality and Increase
In Size Would Make industry
More Profitable.

There is every reason to believe
that caponizing other poultry would
prove as advantageous as it does with
chicken cocks.
The turkey cock, particularly, would
be a good subject to operate on, and
if the increase in size and quality
should prove as great as in the capon-
lied cockerel am sure that it would
make turkey growing vastly more
profitable than it is under normal
circumstances, says Missouri writer
in Farm Progress.
So far as I know, no such practice
has been set up in this country or
elsewhere, but if the emasculating
makes a so much finer bird than the
ordinary cockerel, it seems to me that
the improvement in quality and in
crease in size would surely be as great
relatively in the turkey males.
am presuming that the operation
would be as simple in a turkey cock
as in the chicken. OF course, there IS
no reason to believe that the turkey
caponized would be affected in any
wise differently from the chicken
cock.
1 am quite sure that anyone who
win caponize some early-hatched tur-
key cocks this summer and market
them as capons next fall will find it
a paying operation.

SOME GOOD POULTRY FACTS
Early Hatched PuIIets Produce Eggs
in Fall and Early Winter-Best
Time for Matching.

Pullets must be well matured be
fore they will lay many eggs.
Pullets that start to lay in the fall
before cold weather sets in will, as a
rule, lay all winter.
1t is the early Matched pulIets that
produce eggs in the fall and early
winter, when prices are high.
February, March and April are the
months to do your Matching In order
to secure early Matched pullets.
Yearling and two-year-oId hens do
not lay many eggs in the fall, as they
are Noting at that time, and the
feed they consume goes not only to
keep up the energy and life OF the
birds but also to put on or grow a
new coat Of feathers.

TOO TAME FOR YOUNGSTERS
Former British Golf Champion says
Game Has Few Attractions fer
the Average Youth.

Harold Hy hilton. the former
British champion, In an editorial In
the golhng magazine OF which he is
the editor, expresses the opinion that
golf is a game that possesses few at
fractions for the average boy.
Hilton believes that the boy who
plays golf receives much benefit
therefrom, but he thinks that most
boys prefer more active sports in
which their youthful enthusiasm can
find a natural outlet
In view Of the boom which the
junior tournament idea is passing
through on this side Of the Atlantic
just now the great British golfers
idea is particularly interesting He
says in part:
Youth demands a vigorous outlet
for the natural fund Of animal spirits
which is present in nearly every boy
Of tender years, and it can hardly be
said that the game Of golf supplies a
sufficient outlet for the vigorous en-
thusiasm Of youth. It<has few Of the
characteristics which appeal to the
true, natural boy, and notwithstand-
ing the outcry against the advisable
ity of allowing schoolboys 20 play the
game, we cannot believe that 1t will
ever become supremely popular with
the youth Of the country unless some
subtle change is taking place In the
characteristics Of the boyhoOd of
Great Britain.
But notwithstanding the absence
OF discipline, that 1t is an excellent
training foundation for the young. IN

convinced, as :: teaches the boy to

have kept Mammoth Pekin ducks
with considerable pleasure and profit
during the past ten or fifteen years.
My method is to keep the birds out of
the chicken yard so as to prevent the
soiling Of the water which the chick
ems have to drink, writes D. G. D.
Wells of Fayette county, Illinois, in
Orange Judd Farmer. A two-foot wire
fence has proved satisfactory. OF
course, the chickens can fly over this,
but the ducks cannot. In eight weeks
from Matching l can make young
ducks weigh four pounds each, and by
June 1 at this weight can usually get
twenty to twenty-five cents a pound
in Chicago. During the past years the
demand has been increasing annually.
There is no trouble about rearing
ducks. The brooding time is only
about half as long as that for chick
ems and the ducklings do not need
nearly as much heat in the brooders.
Ducklings should always have bulky
feed. I give a mixture of one part
each Of bran and beef meal to two
parts of corn meal. The beef meal
must never be omitted as it is essen
tial to make the ducklings thrive and
grow large. To the mixture l add
about five per cent of sand so as to
supply grit I always have an avail
able supply of clean water for the
ducklings to drink, but not enough
for them to paddle in. They cannot
do more than get their bills wet. It
is necessary that they should do this
SO as to prevent clogging Of the nos
tri1s with food.

BIG ADVANTAGE IN POULTRY
Soon After Matching There Are Many
CoekereIs Ready for Market and
PuIIets Begin to Lay.

production is that returns come
quickly. With the exception of straw
berries, there is practically no line Of
small fruit on which you can begin to
realize inside Of three years A mich
COW does not approach her full power
of production short of three years; ap-
pie trees do not begin to bear freely
short of seven or eight years. How is
1t with hensz Three weeks from the
