paeity of this infant industry, Mrs
Hiibourn writes, she was compelled to
order n supply of collars and tags
from Portland, numbering the tags
in her own office and having them
riveted onto the leather straps. All
told. she states. $50 collars were man.
ufactured in this manner by herself
and assistants.

After DR.. II. Y. Reese had Suf-

Our First Person Singular.

Is not English the only great Ian
guage in which the pronoun of the
first person singular is capitalized?
How monumentally imposing is that
upper case "I!" If writer is ego
tistic the capitals stretch across his
page like cOlOnnade. When he
writes "we" he descends to the lower
case. But this photographic solipsism,
mark you, is shared by Americans.
Canadians, Australians, New Zea-
landcrS-all who use the English
tongue. 1t is therefore not to be set
down to inSularity, but to individual
ism-a stark, ineradicable, valuable
quality of these various folks whose

In the spring is the best time to
take stock of ones condition. If
the blood is thin and watery, face
pale or pimply, if one is tired and
listless, generally weak, a Spring

America At present capons are
most universally known and apple-
Gated in France. although the busi-
ness of producing them has advanced
gradually in America. This industry
is most important in that portion of
the United States east of Philadei-
phia. though increasing numbers of
capons are being raised in the middle
Western States on general farms.
In selecting the breed best suited
for caponizing several factors mus.
be taken into consideration. Large
capons bring the best prices. Conse-
Quently, the breed should be large. II
does not pay to caponize small fowls,
poultry experts Of the United States
Department of Agriculture say. The
Plymouth Rocks, Light Brahmas,
Cochins, Indian Games. Langshans.
and Wyando;tes are all recommended.
by different producers. as are also
various crosses of these. The Orping-
ton also makes fine capons, but the
white legs and skin are somewhat OF
a disadvantage in this country.
