to be called after this CITY is puz-
cling.

Belgian hare must be great meat
producers. Supposing q doe raises
five littery Of eight young each, she
has forty to her credit. Presuming
half of this litter to be does, there
are four, and these four, if all goes
we'll, will produce two itters by
the end of a year. Figuring on
the same basis they will preduce
l04. 1t may be presumed that
the second litter of the original doc
will produce once, and the basis of
figuring there will be sixty-two
more, making a total Of 1876 hares,
as the increase of one doe. If they
are of good breeding they will weigh
eight pounds each at the age Of
eight months. Thus it will be
seen that three figures are required
to express the weight of the increase
of one doe in the course of year.
