Pasteur has deputed four doctors to carry out his rabbit extermination system m Australia, and they will leave on Thursday. Sydney, February 20 A rabitter has applied at Wilcannia for medical treatmen. He is supposed to be suffering from a disease that is devastating the rabbits m that district, and which is of a scabby nature. Sydney, February 21.
