Profit in Capons.— The wise farmer, 

 looking to profit, sees more weight in the 

 6teer than the bull. Poultrymen are finding 

 that it pays. well to raise capons instead of 

 cockerels. What to do with the cockerels has 

 been a problem, as they are hard to fatten. 

 On the market the capon always finds a 

 quicker sale and at nearly double prices than 

 ordinary chickens. A very instructive book 

 on raising capons has just been published by 

 George P. Pilling & Son, of Philadelphia, Pa. 



It shows how farmers and poultrymen can 

 easily make a big increase in the revenue of 

 the poultry yard by caponizing. There are 

 instructive chapters on feeding and dressing 

 capons. Readers of the American Bee Jour- 

 nal can obtain a copy of this interesting book 

 by sending to George P. Pilling & Son, Phil- 

 adelphia, Pa., enclosing a stamp for postage. 

 A full set of capon tools are sold by the above 

 firm for S3 50. They will send you a set with 

 full directions including book on receipt of 

 price. Please mention the American Bee 

 Journal when writing.
