Another benefit of alternate irriga-

When it comes to the strenuous life
in rabbit hunting it is the concensus
of opinion among the friends Of Her

were such that no other hunters cared
to venture out. F'riCay morning the
two started with tWo-horSe team

knows a place ir which rabbits abound
in great numbers. and although a.
northwest wind was blowing in a
way that was piling up snowdrifts

they could reach the hunting grounds
in safety. When they got up on the
hills however they encountered a wind
that was living gale and laden with
snow, and every gust of which said
