J ackpine Rabbit Snow Shoeing To Destruction

— re

In our ramblings about the: country we meet many kinds of persons who have various hohbies—some: interest- ing and-some not so. interesting. - We met one fellow once who talked much

about jackpine rabbits and“ snowshoe |

He seemed to be quite an So one day we called at

rabbits. anthority,

‘his home o short distance out from a

pros.erous settlement, -to have a look see, Our welcome was cordial and a vouple uf hours passed without 2 hiteh. If came time for the man of the Lunxe to milk the family cow and do other things around a small farm that apparently have to be done each evening before dark or soon after, We were left in the house with the better haif and everything was quiet and peaceful, We were getting some. in- formation and enjoying ourselves.” | Suddeniv there was a erashing nn no eracking and we thonght a herd of Ingose were going through the farm. We rushed to the door and were all Int toppled over by the man of the house who barged in, puffing and btow ing ang snorting, He grabbed a light and barged out again, and his snorting nnd blowing and puffing could be yet hear] as he disappeared into the brush, We hurried’ after and got #1] tangled up in fish net that was spreas} over the fence. That was the end of our chase. After a while the man of the house, a short stout, came look- ing for us and got us out of the fish net. He was still snorting and blowing

fond puffing and excited.

“Well, we said, “that’s all the row?

“I got it, I got it,’ was all the reply we received,

“Got what?’ we asked.

“That jackpine rabbit with snow- shoes on.” he replied between snorts,

“Well what about it? What are you going to do with it?”

“This is the happiest moment of my Hfe. Don’t you know the provincinl game hoard wants us to eateh jack- pine rabbits with snowshoes? We are to examine them and count the ticks. if any, and ascertain how many ticks the jackpine rabbit bas passed over to the deer in the mountains and in the valleys, We have full authority ta get this Information. eren to the ox- tent of threatening death to the jack- pine rabbit if he does not come across with! that information. The game board is anxios to protect the deer and if necessary, that is if we ean show that the jackpine rabbits are sticking ticks into the deer, and thus causing their death, the board will forbid the

Jackpine rabbits carrying any — ticks about with them.” Thit was enongh for us, We left.

We were going to take no chances on eating amy tieks that were in, on or about that jackpine rmbbit with snaw- shoes on, And, by the way, that was the auswer to why all the fish net on the fences at this farm.
