May Start Rabbit Farm. Chief Michael H. Grimshaw ~may venture into an auxiliary line of eh- deavor this spring. Anxious to: do something to increase the nation's food supply, he is considering starting 4 rabbit tarm. The chief alregdy has nearly two scare of rabbits at his home on North Main street and he. has learned that there is an invitiny mat ket for all the rabbits that he can provide for sale. He has a letter from one of the big soup manufacturing concerns of the ceuntry, a firm whose name is a house- hold word, inguiring how many rab- 1 bits"he can furnizh upon order. The concern does not indicate that the rab- bits to be furnished will go inta anr particular kind of soup, but tnere is a possibility that they might be used in place of chicken. Chief Grimshaw has had mare than a little experience in raising rabbits and feels that a venturd in supnlying them in large numbers would meet with much suceess at the present time.
