In spite Of their good qualities as
food and game, cottontail rabbits In
many localities become a great nuis-
ance to orchards and farm crops, and
control measures are necessary to pre-
vent their increase. In addition to the
natural checks effected by diseases and
predatory animal enemies, the usual
ways Of preventing abnormal in
creases in their numbers. according
to the biological survey Of the United

by hunting, trapping. fencing, or pois-

be observed. The game laws for 1922
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture as Farmers Bull
letin 1888, shows the requirements In
each state. In some states rabbits may
be taken with dog, trap, or snare at any
