RAISE RABBITS
TO ADD TO MEAT
SUPPLYOF IT,
Especial Star. Bulletin cO.respOudsncel

WASHINGTON, d. c., July IT,
Rabbits, which have proved a valuable
source of food in Europe during the
present war, may well be raised IL ore
extensively in America by way CT re
ducing the drain on the ordinary meat
supply, according to biologists Of the
United States Department Of AgrIcul
ture. The business of growing rGb,
bits, the specialists point cut. can be
carried on by youths and adults no;
engaged in military or other national
service, or in regular industrial EN-,
ployment. The animals may be
raised In back yards of cities and
towns as web as. on farms.
The Belgian hare, says a statement
by the United States Department of
Agriculture, breeds rapidly, natures
quickly, and produces a palatabe and
highly nutritious meat. The cost o.
production is less than that of any
other meat, not excepting poultry
The supply can be greatly increased
within a few months, without reQuir.
ing space that may be needed for the
production of crops. Practical ex-
perience has demonstrated that rab.

quantities at a cost of about 6 cents
q pound; and by utilizing lawn cut
tings and other vegetation that would
otherwise be wasted, the cost can be
made even lower.
The Belgian and Flemish giant rab-
bits are recommended for meat pro-
duction, as the ordinary tame rabbit
Is smaller and develops more slowly.
Stock of Belgian hares may be bought
from breeders in nearly all the states
at 81 to So each. They may occasion
ally be had from pet stock dealers.
Fancy pedigreed stock is not required
for meat production.
Rabbits are easily kept. They eat
hay, grass, lawn cuttings and green
vegetation Of many kinds. Females
should be allowed to breed when
eight or ten months old, and during
the year should raise four filters Of
about six young each. Well fed, the
young reach marketable size when
three or four months old and average
from five to six pounds live weight.
The Department of Agriculture has
published a bulletin on raising rab-
bits which will be helpful to those
who wish to engage in this pursuit.

TO BE CONSIDERED

With the return OF Land Commits
Fioner B. G. Rivenburgh from the
mainland. toe board Of industrial
.hools is in a position to consider
more fully the two offers made TO
set out to pineapples the 400 acres
OF land at Waiaiee now held BY the
boys industrial school.
A committee composed OF Circuit
Judge ". II. Heen and Mrs. F. w
Macfarlane. members OF the board,
j and Frederick Anderson, superinten'
dent Of the school, recently conferred
with Governor Pinkham as regards
the offers, the governor suggesting
that the board wait until the return
Of Commissioner Rivenburgh before

:. One offer to plan: the land to pine
apples has been made by the Hawaii
Preserving Co. and the other by a
Japanese pineapple planter. The Of
fer OF the preserving company was
made about q ~-eek ago,
Under the plan proposed, the Ha'
waii Preserving Co. offers to advance
to the boys industrial school all
money necessary TO raise the pine
apples on the 400 acres for five years,
which means a yield Of three crops.
The company offers to purchase the
fruit for use in Its cannery, deductfng
from the crop returns the money al
ready advanced. Il has been suggest
ed that the school do what labor 1t
can, using preferably, boys who have
been paroled from the institution.
The company estimates that the
three crops would be worth approx
imately $4,000. After deducting the
cost of all work. with the exception,
possibly, OF. keeping the fields clean,
which could be done by the boys, and
the money advanced by the preserving
company, IL Is Estimated that the in
dustrfal school would clear about
100000, or about $4,000 . year.
II Is also the plan Of the company
10 place the entire work in the fields
under the direction OF the superinten.
dent OF the school The company pro
poses 70 pay for the pines at the rate
Of SIS ton, or on the sliding scale,
whichever system the board may
fsyor. The company also offers to
construct quarters for the laborers and
hoys, and the necessary sheds, as
well as paying the. paroled boys a
wage ranging from s1.20 day up
ward.
II is understood that the plan Of
the Japanese Is % do al the planting

HAWAII PINES
IN BIG DEMAND

The demand for Hawaiian canned
pineapples is steadily increasing anG
local dealers will have no trouble in
disposing of their entire product at d
good price, according to the leaders in
Hawaii's pineapple canning industry
Although there VAS some diftiCuL'
ty experienced in marketing the
produce several years ago, at present
the Hawaiian pineapple is in such
demand on the mainland that the
island producer has no reason 10
worry about getting rid Of his pro
duct" said Kenneth b. Barnes, sec
rotary OF the Hawaiian Pineapple
Company. Ltd, Of which J. d. Dole is
president. ~
This fruit is we'll known all
through the county and the orders
have come in such numbers that W
will be kept busy filling them"
The price OF Llneapples mas been
forced upward on account of the war
The increased cos is due to a 50
per cent increase in the cost Of the
tin cans, an Increase in the price OF
sugar bought by the canneries Of
about l cent a pound. and 2 general
increase in the cost of producing the
fruit. There is not an increase in
the profits, say the Gamers, but an
increase in the cost of production.
The variety nos, common. the Pr
inch can containing the best of the
sliced fruit, is selling now at 81 d
case to the wholesaler, while it for,
morely sold at about $1.75. This price

USE TILE TO DRAIN LAND
AND MAKE MORE MONEY
Division Of Extension, University of
Tennessee.)

There are thousands of acres In
Tennessee which, if drained, would
make excellent farms. In some sec
tons we are farming only the poorer
upland, leaving the best land idle year
after year because it is too wet to pro-
duee good crops.
Land may be drained either by
means Of open bitches or tile. Tile
drainage is the more satisfactory be-
cause it is more permanent and is not
IN the way in oultivating crops. Much
valuable space is taken UP by open
bitches II they are allowed to grow up
In grass and bushes, and 1t is often
necessary to allow them to grow up,
as otherwise they would spread over
too much ground.
