Many fanciers of Belgian
at the Local
With aYIew to Securing Choice. Stock for New Hatches
Be Started The Little Animals Valuable as
! Meat Producers.
The Belgian hare loom is gradually
and surely growing In Oregon, and the
lal rabbltrie are receiving numerous
Inquiries; from all portions of tlie state
for fine ; graded hrec ling ; stock, a tid
this demand la not 'only noticeable in
Oregon, 1 ut the Southern California
breeders of the little nnlmals find that
tlie demand is growing in every portion
of the country. . j
Belgians am W.mlng In the East
and Middle States, j Inquiries, followed
ly orders for fine stock are being ri
eeived by' tlieni from Nebraska. Min
nesota. Kansas, Illinois and lVuusyl
vauia. and even tht New Orleans press
are coiumc m ing to solicit Belgian hare
advertlsemehts. The inquiries are
mostly for extra tine stock and eople
are willing to give a gotI price for- the
same when they feel sure that they
are getting their money worth. It is
predicted by all those who are "on the
inside": of tlie industry "that breeders
will not be able to till the ortler await
ing tlieiu a soon as tlie cooler weather
set In. The lower1 grade of stock tliat
IwasU sonic sort of a iiedigree but is
unworthy of the same, is luing sacri
ficed and that it 1 being killed by the
huudred for table use, is not a niisfor
fu tie, ax many deem it, but the great
est lieuelit tliat eau hapien to the in
dustry. . j
This industry is now recognized a
one-that is sure to lieeome a most im
Mirtaiii and valuable one, not only for
'fancier who will breed for the pur
luise of producing high-scoring stoek.
lMt as a nuat Htdueer of nsi mean
protmrtions. That Belgian hares make
tlie tin est of table meat I conceded by
all .ami as the little animals are very
chanly and live on a strictly vegetable
diet, they are peculiarly ntted for food
ud' where tliey tire plentiful the meat
product is eagerly sought by all epi
cure. This meat can be produced for
far less 'uuMtey than lteef. pork, mut
ton or poultry, is very tender and
toothsome and exceedingly nourishing,
and has a finer flavor than turkey or
du k. i , ; :
That t lie- Belgkin hare has come to
stay and i destined to take a perma
nent phice among the great Industrie
if Auicric.i fact that Is conceded,
and few who' have given the subject
serious consideration, will .doubt It.
The country is thoroughly in earnest
with the Itcltuau. stud nowhere in the
world is the little animal Itetiei appre
ciated than in this country.
thecal rabb'trh are now well stock
ed with cltoico strains of Belgians,
many of them very high-scoring ani
mals, and nil active demand, has re
sulted for their progeny. Tin- litters
f young, that have appeared In sev
ral of tin hutches, are ready for those
. fanciers who are desirous of becoming
breeder and getting a start, and a few
are taking advantage of opportunity
thus offered to secure line stock at
low rate, for the purtioso of stocking
their new hutches and engaging in the
business. .- t . .
The San Francisco Evening Post, in
a recent issue, has the following Inter
esting article tun the growing opuIar
ily of the hare and Its economic value
as si table product:
, "The growing opularity of the hare
' as :i table product is- demonstrate! by
the numlK-r of holding restaurants and
hotels that find an Increasing call for
it. A careful estimate will warrant the
cn lesion that the future local de
mand for the hare as a meat product
will more than keep pace with the Mip
ply. This is tml antieiitihg canneries
that will certainly lo established when
the supply of the product will warrant.

Mrs. A. M. Itush. editor of the Bel

California, in writing of ltelgians for

gives Instructions -how to treat the
little animal, in the following:
"Morning Mash composed of one
quart middlings, one small handful of
Hpseed meal and one tensjoonful salt.
Mix with hot water into a stiff.. crum
bly mas: when cool, give each animal
a smalt hamlfuL Hay and; water.
"Noon Carrot and onion, all they
will eat up clean.
"Night One cupful of whole oats or
whole whtiit, or stale bread fed alter
nately. A small quantity of hay;
water.
"Also feed occasionally Kinail quan
tities of other vegetables and branch
es or the eottonwood, apple, apricot or
eucalyptus .tree.
"Again, never ke-p exhibition Bel
gian on the bare and dusty ground,
a. the soil get in the fur and take
all the oil out of it. making it look dead
and faded. -'It Is difficult to make the
novice believe this, -and the argument
frequently advanced in favor of the
ground floor is that tlie soil I the na
tural provision and consequently must
le the proper one for the rabbit. This
sound rational, but let us find the
fallacy in the argument: I2d you ever
see the wild rabbit select the middle
of a dusty roadway for their play
