raised annually, and on one farm 5,000 cockerets are held for 
caponizing. The industry is growing rapidly year by year and 
the supply does not equal the demand. 
It is to be expected that the amount of caponizing done in 
the West will gradually increase. Those wishing to try the 
growing of capons will do well to secure an experienced 
operator. Good men at this work receive five cents per bird. 
Poor operators are dear at any price, as they produce a iarge 
number of worthless slips.
