These, în their turu, will apply breeding stations. Each of the larger prov incial mentres will have 100 breed- ing does; the smaller stationa. will have 20 each. It is hoped that all allotment societies, food production societies, and women's institutes, and many factories, munition works, schools, campa, ete,, will form rabbit clube to be sfilisted to the association.
