In reply to several queries regarding
care, etc, of the Belgian hare:
II you are new to the business, it would
not be advisable to purchase the very
| best stock at first; good breeders can
be gotten for from $40 per pair up; I'M
less you intend to breed on an extensive
scale, it is not necessary for you to get
buck when you buy your does; an ac-
cOmmodating firm will breed the does the
first time for you free. Get pedigreed
stock, and buy from a firm that can be re-
lied upon to furnish bona fde pedigrees
with their animals.
Provide for each doe a hutch made
from dry goods box three or four feet
long by two feet square, in the following
manner:
Remove the top, or one of the sides,
whichever is the more convenient, and in
the opening thus formed, which is to be
the front of the hutch, place an upright
support, about one by two inches, as far
from the right hand end of the hutch as
the width of the nest box you intend to
use, which should be about twelve inches.
Ihis upright is part of the door casing.
Cu' VI IN men SUN make Il QOOT
one-fourth of an inch smaller all around
than the space to the left of the upright.
Cover this frame with 1-inch mesh poul-
try netting and hang by two small hinges
to the left end of the hutch. Place a
wooden or metal button on the upright to
fasten the door with. (See Fig. IL
There is now left at the right of the
hutch space one foot wide, by two feet
high. This is for the nest box. This
should be box about twelve inches
square, and twenty to twenty-four inches
long. In the front end cut a door six
inches square, and in the left hand side.
near the other end, make an opening six
by eight inches; the bottom of this open
ing should be three or four inches from
the floor of the hutch. The door in the
front end of the nest box is used in ex-
aiming the young without attracting the
attention of the mother. The opening in
the side toward the interior of the hutch
is for the doe to get in and out Of her
nest. (See Figs. and 81
There Will still be left an open space
above the top Of the nest box. This can
be covered with wire, or boards, as you
prefer; If the hutch be large and roomy
boards would be tho better, as does like
to have dark retreat. If the hutch is
rather small wire would be preferable
for the sake of ventilation Do not build
the nest box up tc the top of the hutch
as the young will worry the doe trying
to nurse If she cannot jump away from
them.
The above is general plan, that can
be changed according to the size of boxes
you procure.

When the youngsters have reached the
age of three months begin to feed a pint
of oats for each four young, still giving
them all the hay they can dispose Of.
When four months old. if raising for the
market the amount OF oats fed should be
increased, and a menu Of corn chops and
peas added The celery tops from your
table will give a fine flavor to the meat.
II intending to reserve some for breed
ers, begin feeding at this age just as you
do the cider animals. but do not breed the
does until they are six months old, and
never use the bucks until they are seven
months old The sexes should be separ-
ated at four months.
Five months is the most profitable kill
ing age. II the hares have been properly
fed the maximum amount of meat at the
minimum cost is attained at this time. To
kill, strike the animal sharp blow be-
tween the eyes, or on the back OF the neck.
This blow will stun it. and the throat
should be Immediately cut, and the hare
hung up by the hind legs TO thoroughly
bleed. To skin. cut off the head and feet,
and make an incisloF on the under
side from the throat TO the tail, and split
the skin on the legs on the inner side from
the first Joint to the cut previously made.
The skin can now be removed whole. Clean
the carcass, and put in a cool place until
wanted for cooking. Stretch the pelt on a
board with the hair side down, and rub
the flesh side thoroughly with mixture of
equal parts Of powdered alum and salt.
Before going further with the curing. find
out from your furrier just how he wants
the pelt.

Place these hutches in dry place, and
where no draughts can blow upon the
animals; in the exceedingly dry atmos-
phere of the West, many breeders have
what is called an "out door rabbitry.'
which Is simply roof over the hutches,
with the front of the hutches to the
south. IN this climate, where We coca
sionally have fogs, 1t would be better to
have the animals inside four good walls,
with the windows and doors open during
bright days. The Belgian Hare can stand
almost any degree of cold, but dampness
is their great enemy.
You are now ready for your does. At
first their feed should consist of one
quarter of pint OF oats twice day and
a small handful of clover or alfalfa hay in
the evening, together with a cup OF water
daily. One half and one-pound earthen-
ware butter jars are best for feed and
water cups. If the does have been bred.
about two weeks afterward their feed
should be gradually increased in quantity
day by day. The young will arrive in
about thirty days after the doe has Wis
tied the buck. The litter should not be
disturbed for three - four days after
birth; an examination should then be
made to ascertain If any are dead II so.
remove the dead ones, and do not open
the nest box for two weeks. About this
time 1t is well to put clean straw in the
box for the young hares' bedding: they
will now have begun to come out of the
nest box.
Nine out of ten does will make their
own nests OF hay and straw that should
be provided about a week before the
young are born. II by that time she does
not begin making a nest You should fill
the nest box about two-thirds full of soft
hay or straw. A few hours before the

young arrive she will pluck a quantity of
fur from her body and line the nest
with 1t.
From four to ten weeks is the critical
age for the youngsters. Hay should be
kept before them at all times. and the
doe should have a coed supply of oats on
the nest box where the young cannot yet
jump. A small quantity of rolled oats
every few days when they first begin to
eat is good for them; they should have
very little whole oats until they are five
or six weeks old.
When they are six or seven weeks old
take half of them away from the doe and
put in a hutch to themselves, feeding
plent.- of hay, and n pint of oats per day

litter should be taken from the doe grad

All the care the Belgian hare requires is
a few minutes spent morning and evening
in feeding it, and thorough cleaning out
of its hutch at least three times per week.
This does not take long, and is the first
requisite to a successful rabbitry. The
cleanliness of its surroundings cOmmends
the Belgian hare meat to invalds, and
persons desiring 2 perfectly clean flesh.
In regard to a market for the meat. the
demand for breeding animals is SO great
that there is practically no meat market
for them this side OF Los Angeles; that is,
the supply is small, and very irregular.
Breeding animals are bringing good prices
everywhere. and the most money to be
made at present is in raising them.

The past week In the stock market has
been an important one. Business has
been immense. and fluctuations in prices
have been larger than ever before. But
this has not been the thing of greatest
Significance. II has been a test week in
the boom of 1900-1901. The selling of
stocks to take profits has been on a tre-
mendous scale. II is quite certain that
never before in the history OF the stock
exchange has there been suca vast un-
loading Of securities. The question is
whether the boom is big enough to alb
sorb all this stock and continue on ifs
course. 1t cannot be said that the qlss-
ton has been answered as yet, though
the market has shown strength and a
buoyancy hardly conceivable after every
decline. 1t may be said, however, with
perfect truth that many careful market
people are extremely optimistie over the
