THE BROAD VIEW

The Superintendent of the depart- ment of "Co-operation with Mis- sloiiary Societies" should be a wo- man of vision. Her aim ts not merely to have every woman in the W. M. S a member of the W C. T. U. Her aim is to have every woman in a Missionary Auxiliary clearly convinced that beverage alcohol is the implac- able foe of the Church of Jesus Christ. I-Ier aim ta to have every woman a. pledged Total Albstalner.

For some years the Total Ab- stinence Societies have watched a, near-tragedy taking plaice, viz» an everwidenlng gulf in the rela- tionship between them and the Church. An eminent divine in the United States said not long ago: "The sin of our churches today is riot of commission. But their omissions constitute something of a crime. for they have made tenns with the situation as delicately as possible. Until Christians get back to a less casual discipleship, the Church has very little to con-~ tribute to the social and industrial problem."

Dr. s. W. Hughes. of tirest Britain. now sounds the clarion note of an awakening Church. “Every Christian a pledged Total Abstalner" and "Every Church pledged to a. National Temperance Crusade!" Hundreds of leaders in Temperance work recognize a new variation in the Temperance graph of the future. The closer the con- tact between the W. C. '1‘. U. and the Church the more effective will be its contribution. Here at. hand is our contact: "Co-opera- tion with the Missionary So- cieties." .

"In the fullness of tune" God answers a need. This department under discussion has oorrie "in the fullness of time." It ts of vital importance not only to the W. C. T. U. but to a Church that ts arousing itself to engage in a life- ignd-cleath strugje with a deadly oe.

There is only one thing further to do about this department. WORK IT,

IN INDIA

In several Hindu provinces the party, inspired by . has now assumed power. The attitude of the great reform- er with regard to alcohol liquor has always been rigorously hostile. He demands the progressive in- troduction of the prohibition of al- coholic beverages, His disciples having reached office, are pre- paring to carry out. these ideas. This is the case in the province of Madras where the Prime Minister, Mr. Rajagoialachart. has introduc- ed prohibition in the district of Salem and will extend it to those of Chlttoor and Cuddapat on the 1st of October next.

Ari article in the London Times reports on the Hindu experiment. 'I'he difficulties are chiefly of a financial character for the State derives important revenues from the sale of alcoholic beverages nearly £200,000 from the district o! Belem alone. Nevertheless the correspondent of the Times. a pa- per which hns no prohibition sym- pathies, is inclined to think that the social results of the measure are favorable the poorer classes greatly benefited and the cases of illicit dealing and production are not so numerous as w cause alarm. At. my rate the measure has the support of the population. the wo- men ln particular are enthusiastic.

HOW TO LIVE

All able and. intelligent people must give an account of them- selves in the world. It la not en- ough Just to live, but the duly is to live justly, sympathetically. making on honest living, yet meanwhile, amid all gains and in spite of all losses achieving char- acter, and so conducting oneself as, on passing out of this world. to leave it at least a little better than it was when we came into it.

Animals are engaged in a con- stant struggle for a mere exist- ence, and after a night of terror in the jungle are sctisfield if they see the light of another day, but men must have purpose. and achieve results in a co-operatlng society.

Life, too. for them means both

TYIMELY sores ON TOPICS CONNECTED WITH

Silver Fox Farming '

The Fur Trade Review of New York, one o! the leading organs of the fur world, has changed from a. monthly to a weekly. In a special Qnaouncement to its readers it IS): “Time forces changes. The 1 industry la no exception. In re- Nnt years it has been wept aims it an ever increasing tempo. The fur business is no longer leisurely; it: is quick w re-act to change in world economics, finances and poll- tlcs. Fncing these facts and heed- ing the constant r_ nests of our readers we have dec. ed to n- lnue the ubltcation of our Fur Trade Rev ew Monthly and com- bine it with our rur Trade Review weekly."

The next auction sale Of Silver 10x skins to be held by Fromm Bros, Hamburg, Wisconsin. will commence Se tember 1st on the Fromm ranc , Ten thousand Fromm silvers will be catalogued, of which 8,090 will be fresh pelts not. offered at auction previously.

A standing room only crowd f.lled the auditorium and tea room of Frederick and Nelson, high-class fur-rlers or Seattle. Washington. last week when the Company open- t-d the season with an eiabOIBf-s fur fashion snow featuring some high style fur coats.

Four thgusnnd» worrien packed the

I NeLherland-Plaza Hotel in Cincin-

nati, to attend the show put on by the retail furriers association. Five thousand tickets were d stributed and hundreds who hnci not rcceivtd tickets asked for them.

Indications are that an excellent mink business ls in the‘ makingfor the coming rail and winter. Prices or mink apparel are low com tired with any standard except 193 . All mink coats are being advertiscddn the cheaper grades of blended skins for around $600, Real 8°°d "link coats are SOVBPlL-SCG for a5 11m? B5 $1 500.

Anerit the disposition to feature mink now being shown by leading furrlers, a noted writer says: ‘The breeding of ranch mink is grflwlflil rapidly, and the skins are imPTQV- in. steadily in size, quality and color. The articles must therefore soon receive strong fashion promo- tion or become a drug on the mar- ket. Last year it 1s estimated that the United States and ‘Canada pro- duced about. 225,000 mink. Some of these were kept for breeding pur- poses but the bulk of them Wflv

lted. The supply for 193B should

la er than last o1’ last year un- less cl temper-which has broken out on a number of mink ranches for the first time-will eliminate a large number of breeders and Y0lm8 mink. It. is estimated that the World product-ion of mink pelts will have risen to over a million by 1942.

Yesterday I discussed t-he ques- tion of mink versus silver fox with Arthur Dawson of Td-yon. Arthur is a shrewd observer and studies a question well before comlnK t0 8. conclusion. He ts very much of the some opinion as the writer, that mink is now in the expandin stage and that the number of mjlk 0n breeding farms is under-est/mated. because Europe, particularly Germ- any and Norway, have gone in very extensively for breeding mink and a; the fur is practically a one-type fur, unlike silver fox which is pos- sessed of a great number of color phases. there does not appear t0 be the same future for it

Art has a. fox population of about 400 youn and old, and devotes a great den of attention to them. and keeps his ranch very sanitary. He has specialized in three-quarter silvers and I have it from Art Doyle of Winnipeg that they are a classy bunch.

The Dominion Bureau of Statis- tics has released its census of the fur industry. The value of Canada's production of raw furs for the sea.- son o: 1936-1937, twelve months endtn% June 30th, 1931, is placed at $16.86 375. These totals comprise the value of pelts oi’ fur bearing animals token by trappers and pelts sold from fur farms. The value of the fur farms production is approx- imately 40 per cent of the whole. The three prtnc pnl kinds oi‘ fur are silver fox, $5,986,410; miiskrat. $2,249,615, and mink $2.240.3'75.

The number of silver fox its W115 204.388, an increase of 1 .129 from the preceding season. ‘The number of mink pelts showed a de- crease, but the value increased by over half a mllllon dollars, The sv- erage price for mink pelts advanced from $11,011 to $16.28. and the liv- erage for muskrat pelts from $1.32 to $1.40, while the average for sil- ver fox pelts dropped from $32.91 to $29.29. Practicall all the silver fox pelts are from ur farms. while of the mink its probably a third may be credl ed to the farms. The

SUPERIOR JUDGE HARRIS AND BEER PARLOURS

In sending two San Francisco Beer Parlour proprietors to jail for two years each, Judge Harris said: "When these people come before me I am going to deal out what I believe is Justice. I am going to clamp down on people who con-

tribute to the delinquency of minors. While these sentences = might seem severe, I want it

change and growth. The call islsolknown that I have no sympathy

comes to higher things. "Ti live is to outlive." The past ls simply s foundation on which to build s. better future. Live. then, for all that you are worth, and for the

for people in the beer business who will contaminate the youth of the city. We didn't stand for it in the old days, and I don't see why we should stand for it now."

highest priced fur is Fisher with an average per pelt of $52.85. and following that in average is lynx

with an average of $34-93

Hr. W. E. Russel, wall known authority on silver fox farming, addressing Ontario foxmen at the r nnnual field day. said that many ranchers do not know what a really true colored fox looks like, because they never attend pelt or live fox ShOWs or even visit neighboring ranches. He explained that the un- derfur should be a dark grey mouse color and should be voluminous and strong enough to hold up the guard fur. Black should be black and sil- ver a shiny metallic silver with plenty of lustre. In handling pelts the fur should have enough elastic- ity so that when it is brushed from the hind quarters to the shoulders it will spring back into place again.

The pelt should not have too fine a texture because the trend of the market is for a strong fur that stands up and wears’ well. Good size in the breeders gives gOOd size in their pups. Feed a ration tn which there is plenty of meat. Markings should be quite abrupt. Only foxes wzth desirable markings should be kept as breeders. Do not useanimals for breeding that have black saddles. If the animals are not fed a good balanced ration the bar tends to become shorter. In some cases the shortening of the bat‘ may be due to internal para- S 8S,

W_ H. C. Ruthven said that he considered wire floors were super- ior to board floors for pelters, be- cause the belly fur does not become discolored from excreta. Second, the foxes on wire d0 not take as much exercise and seem quieter and come up to feed more quickly. He Puts his foxes on wire when they are seven weeks of age. Pienté of marsh hay is supplied and-th is changed every two weeks.

J’. J. McCagiue, leading Ontario breeder. said he had a better growth of fur, better color, renter volume and strength of fur w th his foxes on wire than those on boards. In fact he found, that out o! all the yearling females he had chosen for showing, only those on the wire bottom pens were of high enough quality, Those on board floors do not measure up to those on wire

oors.
