TRAPPING.

I notice a letter in your columns this week on the difficulty of humane trapping. I wonder if the trap committee of the R.S.P.C.A. have ever considered the possibility of utilizing electrocution? This would, of course, be impossible on remote farms, but since the use of electricity is spreading it should be considered, and could be tried on many estates.—M. C.
