A friend of the writer with whom
he was chatting last summer was ask
ed why he didn't kill rabbit that was
running about in his young orchard.
Being sort of tender hearted fellow.
he said he didn't like the idea Of kill
ing the little animal. Yet this rabbit
or its immediate ancestors had girdled
seven or eight and killed outright two
or three Of his fine young trees the
winter preceding during spell Of
deep snow. The rabbit is parasite
and should be shot on sight by the

the birds during their regular visits to
these feeding places.
