Range is very important for poul-

The fowls must have feed and shelter
when they need them.
When one is about to increase the
number of hens it is well to see that
those kept are worth keeping. Poor
hens are not an asset; they are gen.
orally a liability.
1t may not be possible to tell when
hens are worth keeping and when they
should be sold. In fact this will be
impossible unless records are kept.
But no chances should be taken on
very old hens or hens that have never

RETAIN BEST POULTRY STOCK
Sell Everything That Is Not First
Class, Keeping All High Pro-
ducers for Breeding.

Two factors are working to reduce
the stock of poultry on hand. One is
the high price of poultry, both live
and dressed, which obtains at present,
and the other is the high price Of
feeds. The latter condition will likely
continue throughout the year. From
reports received, we find that in many
places farmers are selling practically
their entire stock because of these two
conditions. Under ordinary cireum4
stances, we believe this to be mis-!
take and that it will be we'll for our
readers to retain their usual amount
Of laying and breeding stock.
In all probability, eggs will continue
to bring good prices and, even though
grain is high, the price of eggs will
probably parallel it. Those who sell
off and depend upon buying their
eggs or breeding stock in the spring
In order to replenish their flocks will
run the chance of being disappointed.
Our advice is, don't sell too closely,
However, the standing advice always
In order, is: Sell everything that is
not ffrst-class stock.-Pennsylvania

the same time as If their threats had
been cut, and are exactly as good for
table purposes as If bled in the latter
I way.
A set Of tools for caponizing costs
$1.5O to So, and with each set are sent
directions that anyone can follow.
After the caponizing the cockerels
become docile and quiet; they lose
ambition and their combs cease to
grow. In fact, they shrivel, and when
fed they eat their fill and sit quietly
around until feeding time again.
Capons always retain that sweet.
ness and juiciness of flesh that are
characteristic of the spring chicken
the reason they bring such a high
price.
They are fed much as other fowls
would be, only eating more. About all
they eat goes to the formation of juicy,
palatable flesh.
A few years ago capons commanded
hardly any attention in the West, and
do not yet bring the prices they do in
The eastern cities.
By the last of March good capons
sell readily in Chicago at II cents per
pound, as against II cents for dressed
chickens.
AS the average Plymouth Rock ca.
pom will weigh seven or eight pounds.
1t will be seen that the capon sells for
from 40 to SO cents more than the
chicken Of the same age, and the diff
ference in the cost of raising is inslg-
nificant.

No one is better situated to raise

There are many stories told about
the size to which capons grow, while
the truth is that the ordinary capon

Commission Will
Fine Ball Players
For transforming

New York, Oct. 25.-President
Tener Of the National league takes
issue with David L. Fultz, president
Of the Players Fraternity, who has
protested against the contemplated ac-
ton Of the National compassion in
fining ball players for transforming
after the league season is over Mr..
Tener said that in each contract
signed by the player there is a clause
in which the player agrees not to play
after the season without the consent
Of the commission. This clause was
inserted, he said, to protect territorial
rights of the different clubs.
The National league president de-
clared that the commission has power
to fine players for any such infraction
of the rules, but would not say that
such fines had been levied against the
Boston American players for particle
pating in a game against New Haven
a few days after winning the worlds
series. He asserted that the New
York Nationals and Philadelphia Ma
tionals and several other individual
players also had violated their con-
tracts in this respect and added,
There undoubtedly would be a gem
