A Friend to Unsuccessful Sportsmen.

Down at the market, says a Boston
gossipcr in the Amcrican Cu!tiu"tOr,
there is facetious dea' er in game, who
is constantly buying at this season of the
year all kinds of beach birds, as we'll as
the usual assortment Of partridge, quail
and woodcock. Although some epicures
wish their wild fowl rather gamey be-
fore being cooked, the dealer ouly suffers
a portion of his stock to become 80, and
has driven thriving trade in birds that
have but Just come in. The occupant
of an adjoining stall, whose customers
all like their birds rather 'gamey," as it
is called, was very curious to know how
1t was that the other had such demand
for fresh birds and obtained such su-
perior prices for them, and as a reward
for his close observations he obtained
the secret the other afternoon, when a
bronzed young man, clad in the garb of a
sportsman, with shooting sacket, leg
gings, game bag and gun, dropped IN
and was heard to say: 'No luck again
on this trip, Mr.. =. so you'll have to
fit me out again with an assortment.
don't propose to be poked fun at when
the market can help me out " This IS
but one of the goodly array of similar
customers which this shrewd and close
mouthed dealer has Oh string.

Vegetables Of National Importance.

The importance of vegetables in the
United States, says writer IN the lnde-
ptnient, has been partially demonstrated
in late years by the regular establishment
by Congress OF the "Section of Vegetable
Pathology" since, while this section at
tends to the diseases of vines and fruit
trees, it also investigates those of vege
tables. A small appropriation was
granted to the Department of Agricul.
ture for the support Of this section, and
those in charge of it have already gath.
cred a good deal of information as to the
porats rot in the United States. The
Botanical Division has also published
II, 900 copies of the ''Circular No. f."
on Treatment of the potato and tomato
for the blight and rot"
~ How strange all such Government as.
sistance would have seemed to the Eng
lish 800 years ago, wheL, as Smiles tells
US, gardening, Though long practiced
by the monks, had become almost lost
art in England"
In 1895 we are told that sum equal
to twenty shillings was paid at Hull for
six cabDages aud few carrots. And a
writer of 1850 tells of an old man who
remembered 'the irst gardener who
came into Surrey to plant cabbages and
caulifowers, and to sow turnirs, carrots,
and parsnips and early peas all of
which at that time were great wonders,
we having few or none in England but
what came from Holland or Flanders. !"

Australia,s Rabbit Pest,

Mr.. James Watson is making more
desperate and successful fight against
the rabbit pest than probably any other
man in Victoria. The best means of ex-
terminating the rabbit is the most i'm
portant question that now confronts the
people of Australia. Incredulous as it
seems, pair of rabbits in Australia will
produce 1000, 900 rabbits in two years.
Rabbits begin to breed when two months
old, and they give birth to an average
of four litters a year. The litters usu-
ally consist of four does and two bucks
These pests are running New South
Wales, and land that few years ago
was worth $40 per acre. is now worth
only. 81. Two years ago MIR. Watson
purchased one of the finest estates in
Victoria, consisting of 30, 600 acres,
which had been abandoned on account
of the rabbit pest. Mr.. Watson began
fighting the animals by establishing a
rabbit factory upon his property. Last
year he canned 500, 900 rabbits, all of
which were killed on his land, and that
many more in addition were killed.
The rabbit factory is paying handsome
market, and that is limited.
"You can imagine what terrible af-
Fiction the rabbits are" salo MIR. Wat
son, "wheu the government is building
a fence of wire-netting 5000 miles in
length, which will include Queensland
from New South Wales. The rabbits
have not obtained foothold in Queens
land, and the fence is to prevent them
from getting over. 1t costs the govern
ment of Victoria $625, 600 year to keep
the rabbits down on the Crown land,
and landowners are compelled to keep
the animals from increasing on their
property. To do this the owner Of
10, 900 acres is required to employ 100
men. Owing to this many are forced
TO give up their property, as they can
not afford the expense. Men who are
experts in killing rabbits make nice
thing out of their occupation. The
government pays 10 cents for pair of
dead rabbits, and good men can make
$40 per week. Three of the best ways
of getting rid of the rabbits are: To
scatter arsenic on fruit on the ground,
by phosphate of oats or by the ordinary
rat trap. The trap is the means most
generally used. One man can work 100
traps, and still this is very slow way.
The government offers 500, OOO for a
means of exterminating the little animal,
and it is partly in hope that Yankee in
genuity will aid us that I visit shis
country. Pasteur has recommended the
inoculating of the little animals with
chicken-pox, but the cure is worse than
the disease. 1 have recently employed Al
man from South America, and he thinks
he will capture the reward by introduce
ing the South American skunk into
Australia. Twenty years ago we had no
rabbits in our country. but few were
imported from England for sporting
purposes about the beginning of that
period. ."-NeD York World.
