animals. This demand is very linn
tied and must soon cease altogether,
and then we will have Belgian hares
on the market so cheap that they
won't pay for the food they eat.
Everybody will have an abundance
of them, and unless there is a good
market for them as food the breed
ers must lose money or go out of the
business.
1 do not write this to discourage
any n who is raising tho hares, but
merely as q matter of caution. l
say go slow and lind your market be-
fore venturing too deep in the indus
try. If you are sure of customers
then there is no more profitable in
duStry today. But when the markets
begin to close down on you, then it
is time to reduce the number. Mean
while L put more faith in poultry,
which if bred and raised properly in
sures a continuous though not very
large income.

BELGIAN HAREs AGAIN.

correspondence of The Progressive Farmer.
| was induced to try a few Belgian
hares along with my poultry when
everybody, including the papers, be-
gan to boom them, and a word of ex-
perience may serve as a warming to
some. 1t is not that the hares do
not do about all the wonderful things
claimed for them. They are GER
tainly prolific and excellent growers,
but the question that is more i'm
pOrtant to all growers is, what are
you going to do with them after they
are raised? Is there q market for
them? Recently 1 made inquiries
among marketmen of two cities
New York and Philadelphia-and 1
must confess 1 was disappointed. 1
supposed that the demand was so
great for the hares that the market
men could hardly get sufficient sup
plies but they were all unanimous
in their conclusions. There is d
limited demand for Belgian hares as
there is for the wild cottOn-tail Of
the woods. A few spOrtsmen and
cheap restaurants take the supply
nobody else. l intimated that l had
heard the remark that the Belgian
hare threatened to displace poultry
in certain lines as daily food. This
caused a smile. There was no i'm
mediate danger of this.
In short, 1 found that at present
the boom in Belgian hares is entirely
in the breeding. Very few outside
of the breeders have started q boom
in eating them. While their meat
is good, and may with judiciOus adj
vertising be introduced in the cities
as a common article of diet, there is
certainly very little use for it at
present. Those who talked so much
about making profits III raising the
hares are the first ones TO abandon
the industry. They have raised the
hares for breeding purposes and they
have sold their animals for fancy
prices to those anxious to raise the

Live Stock.
FANCY BREEDING OF STOCK.

Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer.
Few farmers find the time or in
clinatiOn to attempt fancy breeding
of stock, and many consider it too
expensive and rather out of their
line. Nevertheless there are prac-
teal farmers who have found this
industry profitable in connection
with their ordinary farm work and
and cattle feeding. There is of
course a good deal in fancy breeding
of stock that none but an expert can
master, but on the other hand aprac-
teal, common sense owner of stock
can accomplish results in this direc-
ton which will, to say the least, give
great satisfaction and ultimately
prove profitable to him. Fancy stock
will always prove of value in i'm
proving the condition of the herd
which may be raised merely for mar
ket purposes. This should not be
lost sight of. 1t will in many ways
pay for all the outlay of time and
money.
There is alwa-s a certain amount
of valuable experience obtained in
raising fancy stock of cattle, and
receives from it Il good deal of pleas
ure as we'll as practical Experience.
There is nothing like making an

to stimulate ones ambitions and
love for a calling. By securing one
Of two fancy animals whose standard
of perfection is unquestiOned, one
has something to look forward to
that will give him a new zest in life.
There is a constant and increasing
demand for fine full blOOded stock,
and a market a easily be found for
all that the farmer or breeder can
raise. One should not be deferred
from trying his hand at fancy breed
ing because of the difficulties that
must of necessity come in his way.
There are many things to learn in
breeding pure blooded stock which
will prove of great practical value in
handling the ordinary herd. A good
breeder of fancy stock invariably
makes a successful breeder of ordi-
nary grades. The reason is very
simple. He has become accustomed
to methods of c~arefulness in feeding,
selection and breeding which he
naturally applies to the common
stock. He is constantly looking for
ward to further Improvement in the
animals, and as a result the herd
does we'll. 1t is this looking forward
to better things, the striving to make
the next generation superior to the
present, that makes success in stock
breeding of any kind, and any work
that will tend to improve a breeders
methOds should be encouraged.
Therefore a little experimental work
in fancy breeding, carried on in ad-
ditiOn to the regular farming, as a
sort of side issue, must prove of
great benefit and value to the farmer
or stOckman. JAMES RIDGwAY.

anywhere invest $1.25 to better adj
vantage than by sending that
amount to US for a copy Of Prof. l..
H. Bailey's principles of Agricul-
ture." This is a work which tells
the 'whys and wherefores"-the
DrinciDles-Of the ''business" Of
farming. It is written by a man OF
great ability who knows his subject
by long years of actual experience
and scientific study. The farmer
who a copy Of this work
and studies it during his spare
moments this summer will not only
find much pleasure thereby, but will
find greater interest in his work, a
broader view of his profession and
the probability of making many
more dollars as a result of his study.
There are many books upon the
market, but not for many years, we
firmly believe, has n been issued

paper so badly needs. The work is

Many experienced and successful
sheep owners declare that the wool
alone will a for the keep of the
sheep, and that the money derived
from the sale of lambs and mutton
should be clear gain. Upon such d
basis there would seem to be little
doubt that the profit from them
must be greater than from any other
class of stock.

Many farmers fail to realize how
much easier and cheaper it would be
to do more of the required cultiva-
ton before the crop is planted. Be
gin your preparations early enough
so that when you have your land all
ready to plant you a just leave it
alone for a week or more and then
harrow and cultivate the surface all
over again. One crop of weeds will
thus be destroyed at a light expense
and the surface will be brought into
liner filth and better prepared to
receive the seed. On lands liable to
suffer from drought this process may
be prOftably extended for weeks or
months before planting the crop.
