Mr. and Mrs. Frank B. Auld,

Covehead Road. have arrived home after a very pleasant trip to New York and other cities. Mrs, Auld was wearing a beautiful silver fox neclcpiece yesterday afternoon when I had the pleasure of meeting her with her genial husband. They discussed with me the popularity of silver fox in the cities they had been to and described some beau- tiful exhibits in exclusive fur store windows of New York City. 'I‘he furriers they called on in New York admired Mrs. Auld's fox scarf and one of them made the remark that the Norwegian skins were very beautiful and very clear, but lack- ed the density of fur that the Canadian pelts have. which con- nrms the report made by Mr. George A. Callbeck of the Canad- ian National Fur Marketing De- partment. on his return from Icn- don recently.

fur farm problems. Fox farmers can write questions to it which are answered in the same issue as the question appears. Here is one re pilling foxes. Question:-"1 am just starting in the fox forming ‘business and would like to know the usual practice followed when pilling foxes. I intend to use Wor- mex and my kennels are outside the pens. Would you advise shut- ting the vixen out of the kennels and take the pups right away and pill them and hold them until the liquid has gone through which may take three hours, or should I re- turn the pups to the kennels im- mediately after the medicine isad- ministeredt” _

Answer:-"After the first pilllng

it is usually best to return the pups ‘ to the vixen within ten minutes or `so after treatment. After the sec- ond treatment when the pups are four or five weeks old, it is slrlght to keep them under observation to determine whether worms are passed. . . Personally, we have nev- er administered liquid worln medi- cine to pups under ilve weeks, but we understand that some breeders used this method last. year with success....The vixell 511011111 W kept out ot the kennels until the pups are returned".

The new technique for treating

fox pups which is now Used at the Vimy Ranch, George A. Oa1lbeck’S. Dr. Leo Frank’s and other ranches is as follows. The female and pups in her denare taken out to ll. warm building or shed where the female is placed in a clean nest box in which there is il “Shi CW' erlng of clean straw. The pup! are dosed with MacKinnon’s Lid' uid Worm Remedy, a small half- 'teaspoonful' being given to each pup. and each litter is placed in a. box. -At the Vimy Ranch tripe

Charles E. Kellogg, in dilrp I

the Bureau of Biological Survey, United Statcs Department of Ag- riculture, differs from those who say that the quality of silver fox

Der cent Scandinavian, and were f¢P°rted to be _somewhat disap- l>0inr.ing in color. The exchange 1 rate was 4.91 1-4. All classes of Pells except full silvers were from 10 to 16 per cent lower in price than in the January sales of 1936. The full silver skin on the other hand sold 7 per cent higher in 193'! than in 1936. and the average sale price was 15% per cent higher than that of the tive-year average 1932 to 1936. This indicates that full silvers are becoming increas. lnsly popular ln me small sales. This is undoubtedly because of the interest exhibited in European countries in the silver fox skin as e trimming fur.

Although the nve-year average,

price of full silvers is 121 less than that of the three-quartorsib vers and in 1938 the avenge prioe of full silvers was only H cents morethanthatof thethree-quarter silvers of 1937. full silvers brought $7.62 average more than the three quarters in the January, 1937, Lon- don auctions. The full silver fox skin in the British markets is now selling for 24.6 per cent more than the three-quarter silver.

Except for lull silvers it is

quickly evident that the price of silver fox pelts is decreasing, in spite of the fact that the general quality is improving from year to year. A decreasing market value with increasing quality of pelts means but one thing-that fox farmers must put still greater em- phasis upon quality production .combined with more economical methods of feeding and manage- ment. An expanding market of course has a buoyant. effect on prices".

Mr. Kellogge' remarks are quite

apropos, and it is certainly sur- prising information to learn that full silvers have averaged nearly 25 per cent more than three-quar- ter silvers, The writer had no idea _that such a disparity existed, al- though iuliy aware through sales of pelts that the full silvers were ‘ much more desirable.

‘ Mr. Kellogg’s statement that we , must lower our feeding costs and management costs has been dis- covered several years ago. \>8¢H\186 there is no fox farmer today in this country but has not recom!!- ed the fact that the ditlerence be- tween the cost of production and the price obtained for the finished product does not leave a marsill sufficient to warrant extravagance or recklessness of any kind.

There is very great llmltstlonsto

the lowering of feed costs. While experiments may be conductcd or even under way, that will find some cheap substitute foods that can be used instead of meat and the cereals which now form part of the foxes ration, yet this hope ls pretty visionary. and the most practical of us know that where we have established a feed for-

well-grown pup and nicely matur- ed adll\ fox pelt fur and a fairly good, clear colored pup skin. it

or perhaps not as well, yet our

ollr marketable furs are readl' sellers at prices that yield a satis

gloss price

deal depends on the judgment ex- ercised by the feeder. Some stock- men are so expert and have such a way with animals that they can grow them good on several diets. Others of us must stick more to beaten tracks, using the previous year's experience with modificat- ions to guide us during the fol- lowing year.

Now is the time to start clean-

ing up around the fox ranch be- fore the hot weather arrives. Rake over your pens, or if board floors are used clean them outthorough- ly, burning the debris such as straw, etc., or piling it far sway

Y '~ OUR MOTHERS

Rev. James L. Gordon, D. D.

The greatest word is God. The 504396-lit word is soul. The longest word ia eternity. The s-wines; word is time. The nearest word is now. The darkest word is sin. The meanest word is hypocrisy. The broadest word is truth. The strongest word is right. The ten- derest word is love. The sweetest word is home. The dearest word is mother. -

The home! Here the child begins

the study of nature and human nature. Between the two heads of the table what a vast territory for the inspection of infant eyes and dissection of youthful hands. Was ever a boy bom blind or a girl born who could not see? The most sensitive thing in the universe is the soul oi’ a little child. What im- presslons are being made on the camera. of childhood! A man's biography should be written by his own children. James H. Stoddard, the famous orator, in reverting to certain youthful memories, re- marked: “My poor mother gener- ally looked on the dark side of things while my father was ex- travagantly optimistic." And so a wise Providence has arranged- it, that in the home life all human charactcrlstice should meet, and all human eccentrlcitles be tolerated.

There is only one absolutely un-

selfish and God-like love. It is mot.her’s love. A mothor’s love is the best illustration of God's love. A mother‘s love is the best guaran- tee of God’s love-the God who can create a. mothers heart. God is love, and lov: is the mother heart of God. Theodore Parker was the first and, so fer as I know. the only preacher who in his public prayers addressed God u "the Father and Mother of us all." Oh, my friend, read your theology beneath the candle light o fa mothers love. That theology ia hard, cold, stem 1 and unbending which cannot find a place in the heart of a mother. Oh happy phrase, "The mother heart. of God"l And let us thank Kipling, too, for those glorious

A great many of the poor pelts have their origin in lack of decisive measures in this respect. Some extra labor should be em- ployed to clean the ranch up if necessary.
