which is the line extending from the back of the neck 

 to the tops of the shoulders. Some of them show three 

 colors which should not be. Two colors are all the

 ing this stock, and bucks with good strong markings 

 should be used with the does that are not so strong on 

 these points. Never breed them when moulting, and 

 enter them in the show room only in perfect condition. 

 The demand for this rabbit also exceeds the supply, 

 and we now find it being raised from the Atlantic to 

 the Pacific. Fanciers visiting the Chicago show in 



AMERICAN SPOTTED GIANT, "SPOTTED WONDER," Owner, 

 Horak Bros., Cedar Rapids, la., First Chicago, Jan., 1916. 



January, 1916, will never forget the wonderful display 

 of more than fifty of this beautiful Giant rabbit. The 

 cuts show how well they are being bred in America. 

 Good, first class specimens are bringing from $25.00 

 to $50.00 each. A fancier seeing one of these specimens 

 for the first time finds it difficult to leave and often 

 tries to purchase at once.
