Though his seven wives are snow white, the children of Jock the big brown rabbit, are as often gray or black as they are brown or white. There are about 60 of them, few being under a month old. They ere as social as school children and as the mesh of the wire fronting their pens is too large to keep them in their home pens, the little fellows visit back and forth; when hungry, they dine at the nearest lunch counter. So far, no mother has denied them. Though I did think, one doe looked rather be wildered when she found hersell surrounded by a dozen ravenous ly hungry babies. And her with but eight "set-ups". Ever so often, I go out and reparcel the lot of them, though to return them to their lawful mothers is now utterly impossi ble. Sometimes when I open a pen door, a barrage of furry mites catapults out at me and into the tall grass about the pens And you should see how their agitated little rumps scurry tor cover! As I swoop down on one, grab him, he will open a pink mouth and shriek. In the pens the mothers thump an alarm. If a rabbit mother did try to count noses, before she could figure out which ones she is obligated to feed, the little ras cals would have got their fill and be off to other pens; where, no doubt, they would take on further nourishment. Don't tell me the communal life cannot succeed. I've seen it In operationl Several babies called on their .father this morning while I was at the pens. He was hospitable In so far as it was possible for him to be and never it any time tried to discipline them. But he was definitely short on rations. A little experimental research convinced his offspring that the ' paternal cupboard was bare. Lift- ! ing disillusioned, whiskery faces ! they eyed each other speculative- j ly and then, with a flick of small ; heels they were off and away ' A few such disappointing visits ; and I fear the father will find himself sadly neglected by his children. But there will be oth ers. With rabbits, there always are. I Olive Barber's 1 Letter iWi fSL.:-J L. C.
