Facts About Blood.

Recent laboratory research on the

which It defends the body against the
invasion of bacterial diseases has
opened up field rich in present in

ise for the future. This work became
possible through the discovery OF the
microscope, by means OF which the
apparently fluid blood was found TO be
filled with floating fiat, circular discs
OF pale yellow color. So minute are
these discs that it takes 5000 of them
placed in straight line to cover the

BELGIAN HARrs.

The statement from an Eastern
paper to the effect that owing TO the
scarcity OF turkeys during the holi-
days there was considerable demand
for Belgian hares, recalls the fact
that II has been but a few years
since everybody in this country was
going to be made fabulously rich ere
this through the propagation Of that
animal. Every one remembers the
alluring advertisements that were
printed, and the imaginary bank bal
ances that were shown on paper that
would belong to the person who In
vested a dollar or two in Belgian
hares and waited a week or two for
the natural increase. The fad, II
such II may be called, died OF II own
exploitation, with the result that very
little Is heard these days OF the mat
ter-so little in fact, that when one
reads in newspaper that there was
demand for the animal in the open
market, he takes noSe of II.
But the truth is that good deal
that was claimed for Belgian hare
was correct. There is no more de-
lightful flesh for food. They thrive
with little care, and increase rapid
ly, and why they were not more
generally raised can only be ac-
counted for on the theory that, as
stated. the fad overdid itself Too
many people expected TO get rich In
q day, and when they saw that
wealth through the cultivation OF
Belgian hares is not to be had In Luch
abundance as they were led TO believe.
they gave up the buslness-and prob
ably invested their money in mining
shares.
However, now that the fad Is a
thing OF the past, the business OF
raising hares for market ought to
become solid enterprise. There is 10
question about the demand for the
flesh being easily created In any COM
munity. But such demand il not
created spasmodically. 1t is a matter
OF growth, or evolution. II the meat
stores would keep on hand at all
times few Belgian hares, properly
prepared for the cooking, and then sell
them at reasonable prize, 1t would
be but short time until the people
would come to understand the actual
value Of the animal as a part of the
daily diet. There is connected with Il
none of the objections to the common
variety of hares or rabbits, and per-
sons who have used them in their
families for years state that one does
not become "tired" OF them as he does
of ordinary game.
