WASTE OF RABBITS
WILL BE STOPPED

Fully 2OOOOO,OOO Wild rabbits are
killed in the United states every year
according 20 estimates made by the
Biological Survey Of the United States
Department OF Agriculture.
Many Of them are jack rabbits, the
majority Of which have not been util-
lied in the past. II all the rabbits kill
ed were consumed, they would furnish
between 100000 and 100000 tons Of
valuable food, and IL proper measures
were taken to insure the collection OF
skins, these alone would have a value
Of S2O,OO0OOO.
The Biological Survey has frequently
been called upon 10 help Western far
mers in coping with the rabbit pest.
In view Of the probable econimc value
Of rabbit meat and fur in the coming
few years, the energies OF the farmers
and ranchmen will be directed TO the
conservation Of this important re-
source.
Already a number Of establishments
for collecting, dressing, canning and
shipping rabbit meat are I'm operation
in Western centres. As In Australia the
transition OF the wild rabbit in this
country from its status as a pest to
10 source OF profit is assured.

athletic. enthusiasts are rejoicing over
the fact that at last just recognition
has been given to Grinnel's athletic
ability and that she is now to take her
due place in the athletic world Of the

Grinnell College is no longer MEM
Der of the Iowa athletic conference. At
4 recent meeting of the officials Of the
Missouri valley athletic conference
held at Kansas City. Grinnell was
rendered membership in this organiza-
ton. Notification OF this action on the
part OF the conference officials was
received early this week by President
Main and favorable action was taken
upon tho matter Immediately by the
local athletic authorities.
As to the effect of this change on
Grinnel's immediate athletic relations
little is vet known, but in all probab-
ilities it will not greatly alter them until
after the 1919 football season. At the
meeting in which Grinnell was elected
to membership the question of 1919
football schedules was threshed out.
Not having a representative at the
meeting Grinnell OF course did not
enter into the schedules made. Basket
have already been arranged for but 1t
is the hope at Grinnell that a few con-
ference games may yet be scheduled.
