Last week Lampgon, Prgggp g l-futh. !nc., conducted s. mo» successful sale of mink pelts 1g- tho Assoolsted For Farms, 1nd, New Holstein. Wis. ‘Their pelts are marketed under the name of the silver Moon collection. Every jelt offered was sold at an estimated 20 percent over present market‘ 161/815. Much of the credit for the successful sale was given by the buyers to the produces: of the lnods, Lengenfeld Bros, because their selection of the sales date- mid-August. ‘There had been plans to market these goods in April but the shippers changed their minds and held back till last week and it was considered the most favorable time for ranch mink.

According :0 some trade observ- crs the brothers Langenfeid made an extra profit of between 80 and $6 M!‘ skin above the price they would have obtained had they sold their pelts some months ago. Mr. Langenfeld was of the opinion that he had bet- tered his average by l3 by holding off. The top price for the best bundle of extra dark male Yu- kcns and the best price of the day was $82. This topped the collec- t.on of 11.428 skins. Mr. Langen- feld reported the average for his 10.500 skins as $22.00. This is well below last year's price for s col- lection from the same farms, but. it ls by far the best average for anything the mink ranchers have offered this season thus- fsr. The heavy demand is said to be due to the fact that the end of the season is approaching and these were the last fine goods believed to be available to the trade,

In addition it is pointed out the retail businus in mink has been better than expectations and con- tinues to nold up. Female mink skins of the collection scored a substantial advance part of which is said to be due to the demand for light. weight mink garments. Garments made of female mink are up to one-third lighter in weight than costs of male mink skins of the some size.

Following the successful sole of the ranch mii-k the Langenfelds offered their collection of platin- um and full silver fox pelts. These were 100 Dercrnt sold. The plat- inums consisted of 751 pelts, the i011 Price “w s54 and the aver- age about $38. The best. price rea- lized for the 4.296 full silvers was $88 with the average about $00. This compares favorably with a- bout an average of $17 ‘for the approximately 14,000 pelts offered by Nlemans two weeks ago Tho official report states there was a good demand for these pelts and prices slightly higher than the open market.

Dr. T. T. Ohaddock of Fromm Laboratories. who recently visited this Provincq has an article in the National Pu: News entitled Toll Chewers in Mink. He states that tail chewing ls quite a com- mon condition, occurring in mink of all ages and classes in which the animal of its own will per- forms numerous tall amputations. The treatment recommended by Dr. Chsddock is the use of Pow- dered Urea, (>0 p.c.; sulphathis- zole, 20 p. c: Suifsnilamide, 20 p. c Olesn, fresh marsh hay or clean rags should be placed in the nest box so that. the chances of tail infection ls reduced.

Most anchors have the idea that the continuous feeding of horse meat in large quantities during the fall months - that is to say from September on - is liaible to give cffcolor pelts and the practice has been to cut down the horse meat to about one-half and make up ‘the difference with tripe. rbr s while it looked as though no tripe would be available but we understand tint in the past week shipments ‘of tripe have reached suppliers here and the probability is that it will be available in suf- ficient quantities throughout the fall months-

Our friend Jim Tuplin. who made a great success of raising silver foxes at Black Banks and secured some of the highest prices st auctions in the days of old. was strongly of the opinion that horse meat should not be fed to foxes that were being pelted. st least in the fall months. We re- member visiting his ranch in November, 1913_ and seeing the large quantities o! tripe he was feeding to pelters. Some of the foxes were immense. They look- ed almost as big as sheep and a photographic reproduction in our memory showed them blue-black with very bright silver. That fall we came away with the last fox he sold. a very small female pup for which we handed over $8,500 re-selllng her a few days pfter for

The buyers were manufacturers and dealers but; practically the whole colleczlon was bought for the trimming trade which is said to be absorbing about 95 percent of e silver fox pelts sold. ‘The cioa trade ls reportedly a con- signment user of this type of {roads and rho trimming trade is active. producing goods for the coat houses. While prices are still very low the fox breeders have the consolation of having to deal with an active market, according to Mr, Langenfelds statement.

He was far from minimising the poor pe“. situation and cited the case of some platinum skins which two ycars ago he sold for $235 aplcce. He remarked that. breeders are now 1n favor of re- striction of production of silver fox and will continue their ad- verttslng campaign with the hope of a revival of interest in the not too distant future.

Every day we meet fox ranchers who ask us what ls the outlook? Can you tell us anything about sliver fox? We are always pus-sled to give a satisfactory reply be. cause there has been so little do- ing in the markets showing a ‘hopeful trend up until the last few weeks. We arc therefore pleas- ed to give the above reassuring statements from one of the large mink arid fox Aireeders in the U. S A., a firm that. produces high quality goods The figures sre so

much below what we would ex- pect to realize that they do m; produce any great exultstion in us. but as we have remarked be- fore_ in these notes. a hopeful thing ls the fact that silver fox furs are moving.

‘Ibo reason they are moving is the United States government has very wlseiy removed the 20 percent exclso tax on silver fox furs used fm trimming purpaggg and the trade has been quick to take advantage of this and cloth and suit manufacturers sre work- lng over time in order to get gar- ments resdy for fall delivery. Would that our Finance Minlstgr Abbott could see the light and confer the some benefits on the Canadian producers of silver fox. We would then be enabled to move the-quantities which are banging over the market in were. houses in Montreal and elsewhere and so clean up and be prepared for the znarketinl of the 1047 crop in 1040.

Those were the halcyon days, the days that bring back mem- ories that ‘cannot be extinguished. We certainly never envisaged then the pfcayune prices of today. Our friend Jim Tuplin is still activr and energetic. although he must be over four score years. His out- door life and his jovial nature and friendly manner ts what has car- ried hlm along so happily through

this vale of tears. His stock formed the foundation for the Carruthers-Lantz ranch. from

which we understand s lot of the Bonnieview (George E. Brown) strain came. They became the progenitors of the majority of prize winners of the present day.

The sales results were not. csllod surprising on the basis of the muskrat trodes activity in the iast ten days. Manufacturers say that. retailers clamour for low priced muskret coats.

Tlll AMERICAN GOLDEN-EYE

After the storm of Oct. 2'1. 19-15, s duck was picked up, dead, on our shore and brought to me for identification. I was at s loss, for it seemed to have plumage that. resembled several other species. I was about to "glvc 1t up", when I chanced to raise the membranous covering, thus disclosing the bright yellow eye. Now I turned to the books and found I was looking at an immature male of the American Golden-eye. To some extent the discovery corroborates Francis Balnfls remark that this duck breeds in P. E. 1. But young or old it ls an unpalatable bird, since 1t feeds on marine shellfish, principally mussels.

Annerlcsn Golden-we. or Whistler AOU. 151. Summer resident. Head appears large and slightly crested because of puffy feathers; eyes bright yellow. Adult Male: Head and throat black with s, grcenlsh gloss, a round white spot between the bill and the eye. The whole neck, breast. underparts, speculum most of the scapular: and wing covcrts, white; the rest of the upper parts black. Fcmele: head and upper neck brownish. Scepulum white. but no white wot in front of the eye. Adults l8 to 23 inches long.

Barrow‘: Golden-eye. AOU. 152. A late fall migrant, paid to breed in Unis/vs. "Two shot at It. Peter's Bay 1010." Eyes bright yellow. The male has a white crescent in front of the eve. The female resembles that of AOU 101, very closely.

Troslles of the Bird-watcher

Ornithological works often con- tsln warnings that certain duck-s resemble other species, and it will generally be found that the female ls referred to. Her colors must not. be conspicuous, but must "melt into her surroundings‘ as she sits brooding on the nest. This cem- oufisge uses the brownish tinges mostly, while the carefree, fcot- loose male ls often brilliantly colored. Here is ‘the first of the wstcherfis troubles: he must learn the plumage of both male and fe- male, the latter not being is easy as one might. suppose.

Thcse readers who have followed up these bird notes. will be swore that some birds have a winter plumage of much different color from that displayed in summer. Home. however, like the common crow. have neither sex nor reasons]

NOTES -

changes of plumage. ‘

A very few birds have “color phases" which further help to puzzle the bird watcher. I can only remember one example of this phenomenon which, s; Reed says, "is independent of sgc. sex or sea- son." 'I'he Screech Owl has two phases: one bird may have brown feathers while its brother (or sis- ter) may have gray feathers.

Lastly there ls the problem of the young or immature bird. It, as e rule, has the sober colors of the adult female. even though 1t be a male. so colored, the duckling is almost invisible as it. crouchcs among the weeds. Tire coloration is thus most useful toil: 1n the most defenseless period of its life, but it can induce a bit of s headache for the inquisitive naturalist.
