was only about twenty men in line in

things for the enterprise. 1t says:
Now we do not like to discourage
Sample, but he certainty does not ap-
preclate the task he has taken upon
himself. Mr. Reinlnger of this office
embarked in the business of hare rails
ing few weeks ago and he is almost
swamped already. One doe has twelve
hares at a litter and she has six litters

produce at the age of five months. Then
counting half of each litter as females
it can be figured at the end of the first
year the one hare will have increased
to over 2,OOO The second and each sue
ceeding year the number must be mul.
tiplied by 1000 and at the end of five
years Sample would have over sixteen
quadrillion hares. Counting the hares
worth $50 a head, Sample would be
richer than Monte Cristo. '-Nonpar-
