There is little doubt that Richmond will
capture the convention in 1901. It will be
the greatest money-spending body that
ever met here. Fully $4,000 Elks will at
tend. and the most of them will be in
Richmond week.
It is said Mr.. Ben. Metzger was the first
person to suggest the idea of trying TO
capture the convention for 1901. He was
at the meeting in st. Louis last year, and
found that many of the members were
anxious to come South. The Richmond
Ejks went to work and the members have
given freely of their time and money in
s'booming" Richmond. The lodges all over
Virginia have rallied to the support OF
Richmond, and the Elks throughout the
entire Commonwealth will do all within
their power to have the Capital City OF
the Old Dominion chosen as the next place
of meeting.

BERLIN, May 23.-The Reichstag to-

AS it has passed the Reichstag, in addi-

that until December 81. 1903, the importa-
ton of fresh meat shall only be allowed
in whole or in certain cases. in halt car
casses, and that the importation OF pre-
pared meats shall only be permitted when
it is proved to be innocuous, which is re-

the importation of meat shall either be
regulated by fresh legislation or the above
mentioned provisions remain in force.

BELGIAN HARE CRAZE.
Poultry Farmer VIII sim ;5oa
Profitable Dusincss

The Belgian hare craze will be
benefit to poultrymen who have the
grace to resist temptation and stick
TO an established and recognized in
dustry for whose product there is a
consumers market, because ii Will re-
lieve them from the competition of
great deal Of energy and capital, some
part of which would certainly have
been devoted to the poultry business.
Whatever may finally come of the
Belgian hare business. at present it is
wholly speculative, the only estab-
lished market for hare stock being
with those wilo wish to raise hares to
sell to other people. 1t Will be found
that this is by no means an ''endless
chain," but a chain which will come
to an abrupt end some day, after
which he only market VIII be for the
meat and tho pelts. The public is not
educated to the consumption of hare
meat. ard there is 10 more difficult
task than to educate the community
to the consumption of IL Mew article
of food. The housewife uses eggs
every day. and there is a constant de-
rnand in every family for table fowls
in the various stages of their growth.
If anyone enjoys raising Belgian
hares and follows the business for the
pleasure there is in it, tina, settles
the matter so far as he is concerned.
and his profit is the fun he has. But
as Il matter of business, common
sense should teach anyone that it is
whose product there is an established
demand to engage in one for which
the market must be ed.-Ssn
