CAPONIZING SETS 



What are Capons? — A capon is a male bird (cockerel or rooster) from which the testicles have been removed. As in 

 other animals — bull, horse, boar, etc. — this operation changes his nature entirely. He has only one function in life — to get fat. 

 He makes quick meat, tender meat, and much of it, and best of all, he makes the highest-priced meat in the market. Properly 

 killed and dressed, he attracts the attention of the best buyers — people to whom money is no object if they can get what they 

 want. ^ 



Best Time to Caponize — Fowl hatched any time of the year make fine capons ; no ill-results follow the operation at any time in the year. The bird 

 should be from two to three months old (not over six months), and weigh not less than a pound and a half. The size is equally as important as the age. 

 April, May, June, July, August, September and October are the months general^ taken for caponizing, for the reason that spring chickens arrive at 

 proper age and weight during these months ; also because cockerels caponized then arrive at the proper age and weight for market during the months of 

 November, December, January, February, March, April and May, at which time there is the greatest demand for them in the cities and highest prices 

 secured.

All Poultry and Pigeon Bands Postpaid 



Made in single compartment, consequently easy to handle and to store 

 away. 



On the front and back sections the wires run vertically, and on the side 

 sections horizontally. 



The wires on the side sections are spaced to make a narrow mesh, and 



are so arranged that when the coops are set side by side the wires on the 



. adjoining partitions alternate, making a mesh of one-fourth inch, thus 



rendering it impossible for the birds to peck or fight each other between 



the coops. 



The use of this design for cooping shows is very effective, as it permits 

 a, splendid view of the entire show from any part of the room. 



Standard, 24x24x27 inches high. Price, $2.00. Wood bottom, 60c. 



Poultry Pen Coop 



The construction of the Pen Coops is like the single coops heretofore 

 described. 



Has two doors, making it especially convenient to secure the birds inside, 

 and which also retains the coop uniformity of the show room. 



It can be used as a two-compartment coop by inserting our removable 

 partition. These partitions can be put in or taken out at will. 



Made in one size : 48 x 24 x 27 inches high. Price $3,25
