None of the rabbits ofmy acquaintance could, I admit, overturn a mowing-machine; but thenneither could I myself balance a coach-and-four upon my neck, yet I haveseen men upon the stage who could and did. The first object of theefficient trainer would be, of course, to select suitable rabbits. Surely something too might be done with white mice? By gnawing throughthe tent ropes of a sleeping enemy--especially on wet and stormynights--they would engender a sense of strain and insecurity among ouro...pponents that could not be without an appreciable influence on theirtemper and _moral_ throughout the campaign. The tents of commandingofficers of notoriously choleric nature should be the objects ofpersistent attention in this way. The suitability of parrots for use in warfare is obvious. Their especialduty would be to give misleading words of command at points of criticalimportance during a battle. A stealthy night attack might be convertedinto a hasty "strategic retirement" by an observant parrot ingratiatingitself among the enemy's ranks and raising the cry, "Up, Guards, and at'em!" It is perhaps late in the season to utilise the services of trainedwasps to any extent, but the possibilities of other insect auxiliariesshould not be overlooked.
