Urged by Government
Helps Out in

Rabbits, which have proved a
valuable source Of food in Europe
during the present war, may well be
raised more extensively in America
by way of reducing the drain on the
ordinary meat supply. according to
biologists of the United States de
partment of agriculture. The bust.

lists point out, can be carried on by
youths and adults not engaged in
military or other national service, or
in regular industrial employment
The animals may be raised in back

Urge Turning City
Garbage Into Prok

Use OF city garbage for feeding
hogs will add materially TO pork pro
duction and also substitute a more
economical garbage disposal system
for the wasteful practice of buryins
or burning city waste according TO
the United States department of ag
riculture. To make city waste most
available for feeding 10 pigs, every
household must be required and
trained TO separate its household
wastes carefully so that dangerous
material like broken glass or bits OF
metal, burnt matches and wood and
other inedible material will not be
mixed with food scraps, vegeta BILE
parings. and bones useful for feed
ing. Cities should enforce existing
ordinances requiring every house
hold 10 separate wastes carefully an0
TO put all feeding material in one
cOntainer and all inedible trash into
the ash receiver.
Utilization OF garbage for feeding
animals will save the people in the
cities an important sum of money
annually and contribute materially
TO the local food supply.
Dwellers in small towns and even
in the suburbs and on the outskirts
of the large cities, in many instances
also could help meat production.
Many vacant lots provide a suita BILE
site for hog pen which will annoy
no one and some of these lots are
enough 70 a

erage family will not have enough
