TURNING PESTS INTO PROFITS
United States Department Of Asr:cu'-
ture Has Plans for Dealing With y
the Rabbit Problem.

Fully 20H.O0O,000 wild rabbits are
killed in the United States every year
according to estimates made by the
biological survey of the United States
department Of agriculture. Many of
them are jacla rabbits, the majority Of
which have not been utilized in the
past. If All the rabbits killed were
consumed, they, would represent be-
tween 100000 and 100000 tons of val
liable food, andf IL proper measures
were taken to insure the collection OF
skins. these alone would have IL value
Of $2O,OO0,o0u. The biological survey
has frequently been called upon to help
western farmers in coping with the

The government has entered this line

Action, but the scarcity of the Oil,

APPRECIATION FOR RED CROSS

Another reminder of the apprecia- tion in which the French people hold the work of the American Red Cross has been received in San Francisco. This time it was in the shape of an autographed picture received by Law renee w. Harris from General Petain, Commander-in-Chief of the armies of the North and Northeast, and let ter of appreciation to all San Fran ciscans for their splendid work in con- nection with the Red Cross.
 General Petain extends to all citi- zens of San Francisco his personal recognition and that of the French armies, of the devotion with which all have co-operated in the magnificent work of the American Red Cross"
 The photograph and letter were sent through Oscar Beatty, another San Franciscan in Red Cross work in France, and the son of the late Judge Beatty.
 The translation of General Petain's letter follows:
 Dear MT. Beatty:
 General Petain, Commander-in- Chief of the Armies of the North and the Northeast, asks me to send you the photograph attached hereto, sign ed by himself, intended for MT. Law renee Harris, who was Aide to the Commissioner for Europe of the American Red Cross.
 "The General-in-C Chief is happy to extend to MT. Harris, as we'll as to his fellow-citizens of San Francisco, his personal recognition and that of the French Armies, of the devotion with which all have co-operated in the magnificent work of the American Red Cross.
 "The General-in-C Chief asks me to convey to you his best wishes, to which l permit myself to add, dear MT. Beatty, the expression of my de- voted sentiments"
