CAPONS.
BY q. Il Conkey.

GLOW can turn surplus males
to rr fl 7" That's the big question
10 the mind of every poultrv
raiser who ia working for real suc.
cess, and while the problem petsa
lot Of attention 1t deserves more.
Ii IL u problem that will bother
the poultiyman until such lime N
science comes 10 his aid with n
means of controlling or dIstlnRu.
ishiDg the sex in chicks.
To raise early broilers is a pret.
ty uncertain proposition, but they
are always in demand at a price
that liz quite in keeping with the
difficulty OF their production. On
the contrary, cockerels Matched
after March or early April do not
command the top prices obtained
for broilers aud ut the same time
they are then being produced
more plentifulIy. So arises the
question of making these later
Matched cockerels a source Of
greater profit.
The answer is caponizlzing.
While In some localities there ID
such good market for capons
hat tome poultry raisers make q
speciality OF their production,
even when the price of capon Ia
no greater than ordinary fowl It
will pay to capoDize when killing
IL not done at the broiler age, BE-.
cause capons mean Improvement
in flesh, increased size and q
greater ease in handling.
FEEDING.
CapOns Can be housed more
cheaply than laying stock and
they also stand more crowdlng
There Is no denying this fact. A
good growing mixture will answer
all feeding requirements. No
feeding is necessary
aside from finishing off the birds
with q fatteniBg ration during the
last few weeks.
BEST BREEDS.
The heavy and medium weight
breeds are used quite entirely
since large capons bring the best
prices. LegboIns and small
breeds are seldom caponized. In
selecting u breed for the purpose
% sure the color of the legs and
kin are In keeping with the d.
hands of the market to which
hey are to be sent.
CAPoN PROFITS.
For a few months after caponiz.
