Rabbit Cookery
Rabbits are a serious pest in some
parts of the country', and.rabbit shoot-
ing is one of the most popular sports,
;So I think that some rabbit recipes
might prove useful. " Rabbits are
]cheaper this year, but last year' I
ifnund that rabbit was more expens-
'`ive than chicken. The other day in
a. grocery store; I noticed canned rab-
,bit. It was cheap meat, as a 2 pound
'can was 47 cents.

Western Ontario, declared: "We are

of the word.
Alsike and Clover Good
This year alsike and sweet clover
are very moderate in price and both
will produce an abundance of late pas-
ture or may cut as hay. The alsike
can be mixed with timothy and it,
like the sweet clover, can be sown
any time during' May or June. Alf-
alfa also will supply a lot of feed if
sown alone any time during these two.
months. Furthermore, any of the
crops .mentioned here can be left, ov-
er the winter and they will give a
gond crop the next season,
Heavy Winter -Killing
Of the 670,000 acres of winter
wheat sown in. Ontario last fall, only-
509;000
nly509,000 acres will be harvested, ac-
cording .10 an official estimate. The
difference of 161,000 acres represents
the amount 'winter -killed. The per-
centage is 24, as compared with 5
per cent. in 1929 and 9 per cent. the
average for the ten years 1920-1929.
Ontario also lost 16 per cent. of its
hay, and clover crop by winter -killing,
as compared with -5 per cent, last
year.

Approximately 15,00(1 acres of flue -
cured tobacco will be• under cultiva-
tion in„Norfolk County this year, ac-
t carding to an' official computation by
5. I; Perrett, departmental field man.
This compares with 10,000 acres in
1929 and 5,000 acres in 1928. The
waren weather in earl;”' May brought
the plants on rapidly and planting
started the middle of the month, con-
tinuing during the .past two weeks.
