Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 64, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 March 1911 — Trainmen Hunt Rabbits. [ARTICLE]

Trainmen Hunt Rabbits.

The railroad men say that In the Central Branch country the rabbits are unusually numerous this winter and that jackrabbits are more numerous than for years. The trainmen get a chance to hunt occasionally on account of the poor condition of the engines. Whenever an engine goes wrong the trainmen enter the fields and hunt rabbits. When the engineer .gets through with the work of repairing the engine he pulls the whistle cord, and then the trainmen come back to the train and resume their work on the road. At Parnell last week one crew had time to have a rabbit supper.—Kansas City Star.
