THE RABBIT IN TRADE.
Skins Exported Annually from
Australia to Europe,

Rabbits are small things, but, like
microbes and measles, they play
havoc with men and things when
they get thick and spread over large
areas. They literally eat up things.
New South Wales, Australia, once had
nearly 1oo,OOo,O0O sheep. That col
ony now has less than 50,OO0,0OO. The
droughts of the country have been
bad enough, but the rabbits have been
the worst pest which ever afflicted
the land of the New South Welshmen.
The area really devastated by bunny
is more than 10O,OOO,00O acres. In one
year there have been killed over &c.
100000 rabbits, and their skins paid
for by the government under the
rabbit destruction act" Probably
twice as many died on the CRASHES
plains, by poison or from starvation
or thirst in their own warrens within
the fenced-in area or out upon the bare,
broad earth from which they ate
every vestige of grass or leaf which
fed them and the hapless sheep of
the western backplocks along the
Darling river. and it's contiguous ter
ritory. London is opening a frozen
rabbit market for the colonies. There
were imported into Great Britain last
year more than 100000 pounds Of
frozen rabbits and more than 10000
900 rabbit skins for fur and spin
users. This is some compensation,
but not enough for the loss of 50,-
100000 sheep in one colony-fully
100000 of the loss being due direct
ly to the devastation of rabbits-and |
the financial wreck of the banks of |
the country in 1892 when financial in
situations closed their doors with liza
bilities at more than $40, 900, 900. The |
Australian rabbit is becoming the
competitor of the Aus
tralian sheep, both for the grass on
the ranch and for the consumptive
market of the frozen meat trade.

sible, then shave over the upper sur
face of all the cakes with a carpen-
ter's adze. The shavings of ice are
swept into the crevices between
cakes. When freezing cold, a little
water is sprinkled over the whole sur
face to cement the layer solidly to-
gether.
As each layer is completed, the
sawdust should be filed in around
the sides, level with the top, and sol
idly tamped down. Allow no sawdust
to remain on top of the various lay
ers until the ice house is filled. The
cut shows the sixth layer in and ready
for the sawdust. Ice is preserved
by being packed away from the air.
AS hot weather comes on the ice will
settle some. Be sure to keep the
sawdust tamped down around the
sides frequently during early sum-
mer, and see that no alrholes form.
When the ice is all packed in, cover
with 10 to Is inches of sawdust. Leave
the gables open more or less to al
low free circulation of air over the
ice. I hope that this description, with
sketch, of our own successful harvest
ing and storing of ice in a cheap pole
frame ice house, will encourage many
farmers to decide to have some ice
next season. And may they thorough
~ enjoy, for the first time, the cool
ing benefits which accrue to the for
tunate possessors of the CONCEALED
fuid.-J. II. Brown, in Rural New
Yorker.

FILLING AN ICEHOUsE.

Over Carefully,


The sketch shows a cross section
OF our own ice house, with boards
nailed horizontally on the inside
OF the poles. From IL to Is
inches should be left between the ice
cakes and the walls. Locate the ice
house where good, natural drainage
may be secured. Tile may be laid,
as indicated at A, to secure more ade-
quate drainage if needed. Cut the
cakes so as to break joints, say 1Sx36
inches, or 15X30, as conditions may re-
quire. 1t will be impossible to make
the cakes fit together perfectly, no

lator may be. On this account, we

soiled, with consequent trouble at milk
ing time. 1t hardly pays to build a
regular modern bridge, however; it
costs too much and is not durable
enough, especially under such condi-
tons as usually exist in pasture
streams. Rather should the simple
affair be resorted to shown in the illus
tration. Stout posts are set at an angle
against each other, thus bracing one
another perfectly, and over these are
laid rough logs, the remaining space
being filled in with dirt. Grass will
soon grow over all, and keep the soil
from washing, and this will add to the
attractiveness as well as durability of
the bridge. Such a bridge can be built
strong enough to drive over with heavy
loads.-F. o. Sibley, in Ohio Farmer.

Common Sense in Shipping.

The profits are sometimes absorbed
in a manner that may not be easily mo-
ticed, and frequently the loss is in the
manner of shipping an article to mar
ket. Il costs no more to market $40
worth of butter than it does to send
two or three bushels of wheat to mar
ket, while wheat is more costly, COM
paratively, than butter, considering
the receipts from each. The best prod
uce should be marketed as such. In.
ferior grades should never be shipped
with that which is good, as the inferior
article will regulate the price.
