Speaking about rabbits, n New York
trade journal tells us we need not be-
surprised when purchasing the next
new fall hat to find prices materially
advanced. particularly in regard to tho
better grade of felt" hats. 1t is fur
;hcr explained that these hats are made
mostly of rabbit fur. and It requires
the skins of from forty to fifty rabbits
to make a dozen hats. over 10000, 900
felt hats for men are manufactured
in tho tnited States during the year.
and it requires the fur Of from three
TO four rabbits to make one hat The
breeding OF rabbits is not carried on
10 any great extent in this country
Most of tho skins come from Australia
The greatly increased cost OF ocean
frcights combined with the added ex-
pense of breeding and feeding approx
mately 100000 900 rabbits q year ac-
counts TO great degree for the higher
price of hats There ought to be good
money in the fur of the Virginia rab-
bit in these times.
