BELGIAN HARES.
The New Fad That is Sweeping the Country
Reaches Grand Rapids.

The Belgian hare first attracted
attention in this country eight years
ago at the Worlds Fair in Chicago,
where a nice exhibition of these valu-
able little animals was admired by
thousands of people. Since that time
many people have turned their atten-
tiOn to the growth and cultivation of
this species in many parts of the
country, some for profit and others
for pleasure, until in certain sections
it has become perfect fad, notably in
California and Colorado.
While Denver is looked upon as the
pioneer city in the Belgian hare busi-
ness. Los Angeles without doubt at
present boasts the greatest number of
enthusiasts. There is great interest in
California and state association has
been organized.
The amount of money that can be
made in the hare industry was
eXemplitied few years ago by F. B.
Cox, Los Angeles, who invested $3.50
In ten months he had realized $4,000
from the Investment, and with it he
purchased 116 high class animals, two
thirds of which were sold for $4,000.
This is the result of the animal being
very prolific.
There is now great demand for
pedigreed stock at fancy prices, and
the price of some animals is as high as
800, while Fashoda, the champion
buck of the world, owned by DR.. Platt
of Los Angeles, is valued at $1,000.
Godefry Brudeli, the shoemaker, on
Cranberry street, West Side, and Dale,
son of S. L. Alexander, have each
secured pair of these hareS and
anticipate much profit and pleasure
in the breeding of them.
