CAPONIZING—-HOW IT IS DONE, 9” 
To bring them to their full and most profitable size, 
they should be kept until the second year. By giving 
them corn-meal steeped in warm milk, and providing a 
warm house, they will grow during the whole winter, 
and their flesh will become very white, sweet, and juicy. 
A good capon of one of the large breeds will \weigh 12 
tc 15 pounds at 22 months old, and will bring at the 
holiday season $2.50 to $3 each.”
