rabbit breeding" II was not long, how
ever. until this hesitancy on the part Of
the would be breeders was overcome AMI
now Belgian hare breeding has beco re
one o. the fixed industries OF ihe ccm-
munity.
There are many pedigreed and regis
tered bucks and does and several large
and growing rabbitries in the vicinity.
Some OF thHe rabbitres lave even gene
so far as 20 import stock from England
direct,
So great has been the growth OF the
industry in Houston and Harris county
within the past four years that a Num-
Der Of enterprising breeders have drawn
themselves together and formed what IS
known as the Harris County Belgian Hare
club. The membership is restricted to
Harris county breeders and Its objects
are 10 protect and promote the Belgian
hare interest AT the PEI stock exhibition
during the Fruit Flower and Vegetable
festival in Houston last year several fine
specimens OF Belgian hares were eXhib-
tied. aud it is no doubt due 20 this eXhi-
hilton that the industry has grown so
tremendously during III mast year. The
Harris County Belgian Hare club vi
have a number OF fine animals on eShi-
bi,iou at the next Fruit, Flower and
Vegetable festival or about that time, and
enecial Belgian hare judges will be on
Inc ground TO score for the exhibitors.

~
The practical and unitarian side OF the
Belgian hare has been somewhat neglected
on account of the incessant demand for
breeding stock and exhibition specimens.
So pronounced is this demand that up to
the present the supply has at Zines been
inadequate to meet It, with the result
that large numbers OF Belgians are bsing
constantly imported from England. Owing
TO this 1t is but natural that those new
to the business should feel an interest
IN the economic value OF the Belsians ir-
respective OF the demand for breeding
stock pure aud simple. Attention is given
the matter because the subject is OF wiae
Interest.
