THB BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW. 



Settling the Meat Question. I 



f 



NEARLY every one who is thinking of engaging: in the business of rear- ^ 

 ing Belgian Hares, asks in regard to the profits to be made in rearing © 

 and selling them for their meat. Eventually, the bu'^iness will prob- ^ 

 ably reach that basis, but the man who embarks in the business now need g 

 not trouble himself abOut that feature for two or three years, at the most; © 

 and, by that time, his profits will have been so great that he can afford to ^ 

 gii'e away what stock he has o!i hand, if he can't sell it. The returns are ^ 

 ver}' quick. The profit is in rearing the very finest, pedigreed stock. It © 

 costs more to start, but the other expenses are no greater, while the profits 

 are many titnes greater. A pair of hares that cost, say, $40.00, will, at a 

 most conservative estimate produce 50 young in seven months. Even at 

 fc.oo a bead, which is far below what choice, pedigreed stock brings, the 

 returns wouM be $2^0.00 in seven months, from an investment of about 

 $50.00. Where is there another business which offers such profits? We 

 know, that, for the next two or three years, our stock will be taken at high 

 figures, just as fast as we can raise it At present we are not worr3'ing any 

 about the meat question. The man who goes in nozt\ and goes in fi^/it, is 

 going to make some money. There is nothing surer than this. For de- 

 scriptive circulars and prices, address
