Studies Fox Industry In Europe

Mr. G. Innis Smith. Superin- tendent. Dominion Experimental Fox Ranch, Sumner-side, arrived home recently from an extended European tour. He attended the Seventh International Genetic Con- gross at 11h from August

2nd to August 30th. By special request ofthoee in charge of the congress he presented a paper and gave an address on his funda- mentals of llnebfitfidlflB. Where they were accepted as something dif- ferent and defined iinebm-edlng and irmreeding in a definite and ap- ropriate manner. He also gave a alk on fox breeding, to which many of the leading fur breeders in the British Isles were invited.

Visited Fur Farms

During the tour fur finms in Norway, Scotland and lmgland were visited. The Norwegian fox breeders give a great deal of thought to their ranching methods and their ranches are kept scrup- ulously clean and in u. most satis- factory sanita condition. Very few standard siver foxes were seen in the ranches and the majority, whilst having a good colour and a wide silver bar, were very loose- l_v furred and on the whole were not of a very good quality.

With the decline in the price of Norwegian standard silver fox pelts the breeders are taking up on a large scale the raising of blue foxes, mink and the new variety of the so-called platinum foxes, Mr. Smith states. In one ranch visited there were over 2,500 blue fox pups. The Norwegians ap- pear to be very fortunate in hav- ing obtained very good quality blue foxes from Greenland. These ported foxes had very dense fur of a. beautiful texture and a clear blue colour, the density of the fur be- ing the outstanding feature. A large percentage of the better quai- li-y blue foxes in Norway were des- cendant from one Greenland blue male.

Platinum Foxes

A large nurrber of platinum foxes were examined. The platinum foxes have a very showy pelt but it appears that they arc very dif- ficult to raise. There is a. heavy ‘death rate at birth und Dr. Roch- man stated that there was a loss

-of 50% of the pups that were rais-

ed t0 one month of age, which he stated was due to_a faulty metabol- ismz-an inability to digest food. The same mistake made in the early stages of silver fox ranching 'is being repeated with the platinum foxes and many such foxes are bfilng sold for breeding purposes w ich undoubtedly should have been pelted. All oi’ the foxes ex- amined had a ve-y poor girth and conformation and it would appear that the platinum variation ap- peared with foxes of poor con- formation. There is a probability that this combined with Imfmiper feeding was the cause of the num- erous fatalities rather than a link- age of the platinum character with a faulty metabolism. as supposed.

The quality of the foxes in the fox farms in Etngland and Rot- land was well up to the average Canadian ranch and with some of the ranches visited their average gelling price of the pelt- for the last season was between $30.00 and $40.00.

Meat Prices bow

1n many cases the prices paid for meet were ridiculously low. Fresh sheep tripe was bought at i-10 of a cent a pound and fresh bee-f at 1-5 of a cent e. pound dur- ing the summer months. The sla hter houses and abattoirs in the and cities were not fit- ted up with refrigeration plants and they are very glad to get rid of the ripe at any price during the summer months. During the winter the beef and tripe is sold for human consumption; during that season both beef and sheen offals can be purchased at a low rice. The cost of feed in Norway

is on about the same level as in Canada, certainly not any higher.

Large quanti- ties of cheese mode from skim milk is being fed to foxu and mink in the Norwegian r es.

_ Retail Trade

During his tour Mr. Smith visit- ed a large number of retail stores in different paras of England and Scotland. Fur models were dis- played on ladv mannequins and as- sistants for his particular benefit. He was surprised to find a lack of comprehension in than stores with regard to the particular kind of fur suitable for the wearer. When it was pointed out that darker models were more becoming to some of the lady mannequins than the lighter ones, and vice verza. they could immediately see that it was so. Fox breeders appear 00 have been very slow in advertising the fact that a suitable fur will enhance the appearance of ~ its wearer. The vogue of silver fox furs is not dependent upon the whims and fancies of fashion. but on the effect it produces upon the individual. which varies according to the complexion.

Visits were also made to the cut- ting and designing departments oi the fur houses. With high priced silver fox capes the skins are in- verted, the heads being placed at the bottom edge of the cape. Only tightly and densely furred pelts can be used for such models. The buyers and designers absolutely taboo brown bellies for all classes of cane". ln capes the entire skin is used and. with a clear black belly the stripe variation has a very fav- ourable effect. Both the designers and the buyers stated were not demanding an extra long fur for capes; their chief require- ments appeared to be densely and tightly furred skins with a clear colour and no brown bellies. Also they avoided a very heavy hide u the. capes must be light In weikht.

' Mink Furl

Special inquiries were made re- garding the class of mink furs used in the higher priced coats B110 fur models. The designers stated very definitely that the ranch reis- ed mink were tco dark. In the cutting and designing rooms them was a wide assortment of mink skins: wild caught mink, ranch raised mink, mink from the French Settlement. etc. The mink skin! used in the high priced models had a very pronounced rich brown colour: the dark ranch raised mink furs were usecl for fur coats and models that sold at a much lower price. On all of the ranch raised mink skins there was a dead strip on the belly for the full length of the skin that could not be used. whilst this dead strip was not pre- rcnt on the wild caught mink, and the fur cutters and designers show-

ed_ a verv large number of dcins to

rove their contention. So that at he present time the fur trade is prepared to pay higher prices for good quality wild caught mink than for ranch r ed mink.

In the majority of mink ranches in Canada the breeders are select- ing for a dark and coarse fur while the market is paying higher prices for mink skins of a pro- nounced brown colour with a smooth texture. Unfortunately the Can- adian ranches are overrun with dark coloured mink. and it would be impossible to entirely eliminate that dark colour. bordering on black. which is not a true mink colour. Under the circumstances it seems very advisable that the mink breeders should select for more than one shade, that is, select for a pronounced brown shade for which the market is paying high prices, also for the darker shade in order to segregate it, but in all cases the washed-out brown colour should be rigidly eliminated from the breeding stock.
