Gruskin - Feldman, Inc, New York City, have taken a new up- proach in the presentation of sil- ver fox. Their little wraps are far removed from the conventional five-skin cape-jacket or cape stole, and all the bulk is remov- ed by plotting the skins lll simple, yet dramatic silhouettes. Ol spe- cial interest is what can be done with two full fox skins. For ex- ample, they take a suede girdle

Another happy blending of fur and suede is evident in the fox "toga." Small, btit swish is the one side fur drape that loops a single skin in a complete circlc

of the ranch mink was sold with only good lots moving. They oon- sidered the limits were too high on ranch mink. One nice lot of malts, Yukon sizes, brought $17.50 and a similar lot slightly weaker, brought $16.50.

The Red-poll is one of our win- ter visitors, making heavy incurs- ions every tour or tive years, ac- cording to my records. Whether these visits are cyclic, or merely of accidental occurence, is it prob- lem for future bird-watchers. The Redpoll is as well-known in Britain

farmers most valuable friends. Riedpolls are readily attracted to the vicinity of the hdiise by scat- tering any kind of waste feed on a cleared lpot on the lawn. In 1944 luch a spot, Just outside n window, afforded me an excellent. chance of observing their plumage and habits,
