grass and weeds are most productive OF
jacks The buggy is driven to the right
OF these tufts and along their edges.
The rabbits, if there be any, will then
break TO the left, thus enabling the
gunners to air and fire in that direction.
To shoot to the right in a sitting posi-
tion is an extremely awkward task un-
der any conditions, but doubly so in the
close quarters of buggy.
Snow-tracking the animals is favor
ite pastime OF the Western small boy.
1t is only possible, however, when snow
has freshly fallen or during thaw.
The small hoy on his snow-shoes rap
idly overhauls the jack. and the whole
thing resolves itself into finding rabbit
tracks ana capturing their owners.
Jack-rabbit stuffed with savory herbs
is excellent; put him in pot-pie and he
is delicious even II he has just sug-
gestion OF his native sage brush; boil
him and smother him in onion sauce
md you'll sing his praises; stew him in
rich stock and hc'll live IN your memo
~; but serve him with other meats and
he somehow suffers woefully by reason
OF their proximity.

clubs exist their membership rolls will
be found TO contain the names OF the
majority of the leading citizens. They
contain in a good many cases the social
clements which are the ratsoR d'etre of
the club proper Of the East The more
ambitious Of these organizations have
their own parks"
The greyhOunds used in the sport are
either imported or the descendants OF
famous English stock At Hutchinson,
Kan, for example, two-thirds of the
dogs used by the club OF that town have
the celebrated Master McGrath blood
I'm their veins. The Victor Belladonna
and Cy belle strains are equally numer-
Gus.
The clubs have their informal and
regular meetings At the former no
prizes but a certain amount Of mild
betting observes. Al the meeting proper
the proceedings are conducted in ac-
eordance with rules almost identical
with those Of the English organiza-
tions.
The sport is undeniably fascinating.
