FACT AND AO.
The Belgian Hare as "Health Food"
Mr. GreIner's Comments

=
Nr. GreIner's Comments.
Now that the Belgian hare boom is
dead and buried, apparently beyond
prospect of immediate resurrection,
comes Mrs. Rorer, the exponent Of
good cooking and expert on cooking
materials and methods. and not only
Urges In her lectures the use of Bel
gian hare meat and cooks it before her
classes, but also has gone into the bust
ness of raising hares on her farm, in
tending to sell them next fall at %
cents pound In the Philadelphia mar
ket. The present price there Is said
to be 80 cents She says, according to
q statement in the Bucks County In
telligencer: The special value Of the
flesh is its being highly nutritious with
out being stimulating, as rich In nitro
gen as beef without the stimulating
quality thought deleterious by physi-
clans. The hare meat Is white, Of del
icate flavor, resembling capon. 1t Is
now used in hotels and private fami-
lies Canned hare meat is also being
placed on the market"
All this is only in line with my ear
lier remarks and expressions on this
subject, says T. Greiner in Farm and
Fireside. The Belgian hare, after first
being ignored, then eXtrayagantly
doomed and denounced, VIII finally
find the true level of its worth. There
certainly is place for it In rural and
domestic economy which 1t can and
will fill. This at least is the conclu-
sion ut which | have finally arrived.
Give the hare reputation as health
food" and its new boom will be as
sured. Whether Mrs. Rorer, however,
will find it quite so easy task TO raise
the Belgians as she evidently and pos
sibly without much practical expert
ence supposes is in my estimation not
quite so certain. The recent Belgian
hare boomers have advertised the ami
nal as practically exempt from dis
ease. We used to find it so years ago.

ally the crosses between Belgian

III asure both in confinement and In
orchards and groves outdoors. But
times have changed. Some disease, the
nature of which we do not understand,
carries off the young stock by the
wholesale and without previous warn
ing when kept in confinement and kills
many older ones. We simply find the
animals dead in their pens. The mat
ter of feeding seems to make no differ
ence either.

RURAL ROUTES
STARTED WEDNESDAY,

Wednesday morning, at eight o'clock
the four rural free delivery carriers
started from the Danville post office on
the first trip over their routes. This
is the Inauguration of this system in
this county and it marks new era tor
the residents reached by the service.
They will have a daily delivery, Sun
days excepted, and will thus be brought
into closer contact with the great,
busy world and its doings.
There is much enthusiasm over the
service and its advantages will he ap-
preciated even more after it has been
in effect for a time. There is some
delay i'll putting up boxes because OF
delay in their shipment. There are
quite number of rural routes in 9TH
er counties and states that will also
be started today and this has caused
such demand for the boxes that the
manufacturers are puahed to their ut
most capacity to fill orders. The fol-
lowing are the Montour county routes
and carriers:

Good Wood Gning TO Waste.

Farmers are complaining about the
scarcity of help, which they very
much need at this season to assist in
cutting and husking corn III order to
be prepared for winter. Besides, there
are many who have plenty of dry
wood upon their farms and they feel
that they now might make some money
out of it, but they have no time to
prepare it for market. A we'll known
farmer III town Monday was heard
to remark that if all the good wood
that is going to waste within radius
of five miles could be got into Dan
Vile the people here would have no
cause to worry over the fuel problem
even though the coal strike should
last all winter.

Runs and Turkeys.

The deadly enemy of grasshoppers
and other insect pests, according to
Field and Farm, IS the plain domestic
turkey, which farmers, sugar beet
growers and fruit culturists all over
Colorado are now raising and turning
into the fields and orchards to eat the
insects. The turkey as bug killer is
creating a good deal of interest in all
sections. and turkey eggs for Matching

School Buildings Warmed With Wood.

Wood is being used with fairly good
results in heating our public school
buildings 1t was feared that it would
not prove at all adapted to the fus-
naces of the heating and ventilating
ystems employed, but it is found to
answer during the present mild wealth
er, although it keeps the janitors
pretty busy looking after the fire.
Cold weather of course will make
the use of coal necessary and this
brings the school board face to face
with another phase of the problem.
The school buildings of the borough
require three hundred tons of coal an
nually, which is usually made up of
No. and No. 6 sizes in equal quaint.

TO procure hard coal the present sea-
son seems out of the question and the
board has decided to see what results
can be obtained with soft coal. Should
it be found to answer the purpose the

worse off for the coal miners strike.
The price paid for No. coal last
year was So. SO per ton; for No. 6 81. 59
per ton. Soft coal is already selling
for 81. so per ton with the probability
of its soaring much higher, by which
it will be seen that the price of coal
for the schools this year under the
most favorable circumstances must be
considerably over a dollar ton above
the average price of last years sup
ply. This increase of cost is an item
in the expenditures of the school dis
trict which the board had not figured
upon, and is only another evidence OF
how far reaching and burdensome are
the effects of the tie-up at the coal

In late years men have made for
tunes out of the tallings of gold
mines. The mills i'll which the ore
formerly was crushed and the crude
processes then in use allowed large
percentage of the precious metal to
escape, and that loss in some cases
amounted to fortune. The stomach
is just like a stamp mill in this re-
spect, that when it is not in perfect
order it allows the escape and waste
of much of the precious nutriment con-
tanned in the food. That loss when
continuous means the loss of man S
