F. R. Brown, agricultural agent of
Morrow county, is trying to get the
farmers interested in starting a eanir
palgn to destroy the rabbits in Mor

from 6 to 8 inches above ground with
two barbed wires on top as a safety
guard to keep all range stock from
getting inside the enclosure. Tim
formula used will be alfalfa hay,
