Kearney Ranchmen Give Up Chickens To Raise Rabbits Ed Powel came in from the "1733" ranch near Kearney Saturday with a Joad of cattle that brought $12.50 a hundred, which is considered good for the class that made up the herd..

The ranch originally consisted ' of 5,000 acres, but has been reduced to 1,640, and is de voted to the raising of pure bred cattle of all breeds. Mr.- Powell - said a number of ranchers near Kearney had given up raising chickens and are devot ing their time to the raising of rab bits as a substitute. They say rab - bits can be fed at considerable less than chickens and point out that the meat of a rabbit is more delectable than chicken.
