Rabbit Meat for Wartime Food.

Wartime conservation of beef and
pork has enabled Kansan to develop
rather extraordinary business in the
marketing of wilG rabbits, both jacks
and cottontails. a rabbit-packing plant
has been established and is now ship
ping frozen Dummies by the tens of
thousands.
A recent contract called for 100000
pounds of jackrabbit meat. The jacks
average four pounds each when
dressed. This means that approximate
ly 10000 rabbits were required to fill
the order.
The fur is disposed Of at a handsome
profit. 1t is used IT. the manufacture
of high-grade felt, such as enters into

All waste products are converted
