"The '1_‘eu Caterpillars.”

"If it is too much bother, don't bother about it." ‘

These are just a few hand pick- ed specimens of the many unusual requests received by the Publica- tions Branch o! the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa, in the reg- ular course of its work. with over 420 publications, bulletins, pamph- lets and circulars available for frcc distribution and with thousands of requests coming in daily, to the ex- tent of 7,790,751 individual pieces of printed matter being distributed by the Branch last year, it is to he expected that a. few requests of un usual interest will show up.

Here is a. request from the Niaga- ra district: “I have a rabbit and he is perfectly nil right, except his hind legs, hc can't move them at all. he has to drag them."
