Paris Council Will , '
Raise Rabbits And
Pigs to Reduce H.C.L.
. Paris, Nov. 12. Municipal pigs
and aldejjmanic rabbits will soon be
on the JTincr tables of Parisians.
The Faris council has decided to go
into the farming business on a large
scale in an effort to . bring down
the. cost of living.
Experts spent months studying
the cost of raisinir different animals
.for.fookl and finally fixed on pigs
and rabbits as multiplying iastest
and being fed and looked after the
easiest.
Enormous quantities of vegtable
refuse now thrown away at the cen
tral markets will be used to feed the
animals. Ir was calculated that
about 20,000 rabbits and 10,000 pigs
can be thus provided with food free
of cost. The animals when slaugh
tered will be sold to the public at
cost.
