Edward Islander was quick to grasp the truth that Nature’s riches are notdnexliaustible. Before arms of precision and skilfully made traps neither hr-ast nor bird can endure.

Figures prepared by Alfred Fraser

of New York from the London Fur Sales, of C. M. Lampson & Co., show_tlint the supply of raw skins, especially of the valuable fur-bearing animals is rapidly decreasing. For example. during the last twenty years the supply of silver fox pelts has fallen on 50 per cent; sea-otter 8.5 pei' cont;‘f1sher 95 pen cent, and the common mink 20 per cent. Un the other hand the demand in com- merce for fur-bearing animals is on the increase, the prices of the pelts of_ the iietter species having advanc- ed about 100 per cent. during the same i.0riod. -

It is to be observed that the of-

ficial valuation for purposes of tax- ation uns much under the actual selling prices, which advanced after the cuunueration was made.” It is also to be noted that the value of foxes of one year old and upwards and especially of proved breeders, is considerably greater than young ones in their first year. Bearing these

899 Old Silvers at $10 000 each

-117 Old Reds at $75 each 411 Young Reds at $66 each ` 50 Blue Foxes at $400 each

This makes a total estimated val- ue, (lilst Dec. 1913) of $15,186,150.

At thc date of writing (June 23rd, i914) the old foxes in captivity to- gether with the young of the present

chased for Twenty-five Millions of Dollars. The above estimated valua- tion of the fox industry in the Pro- vince is equal to more than three time and value of all the livestock including cattle, horses, sheep, swine and poultry which total according to _the Canadian census of 1911 is given at. $7,500,000.

EARLY HISTORY.

Some thirty years ago Benjamin

liuywivid succeeded, after some years, in rearing a litter of two young “Silvers” from a pair cap- ;ui‘ed in the wild. The pclts of these :wo were sold for $75.00 and $125, respectively. Owing to the cramped quarters und the unsuitable surround- ings the parent foxes dies and the enterprise was abandoned. ` Tlib real pioneers of the industry as we have it today were Charles Dalton und Robert Oiilton. Mr. Dal- ton, now lion. Chas. Dalton in the Government of Prince Edward Island, ncgnu experimenting with red foxes in 1887. He experimented secretly keeping his foxes in a small shed at Nail l'oud. Ahoiit the same time Mr. Oiilton was pursuing similar ex- periments on Savage Island with a pnir of silver foxes which were ob- tained from a trappcr on Anticosti island. In 1894 Messrs Dalton and ilulton joined interests and together they worked unmolested and succes- sfully with their anim-als on the is-

Albertou Harbor. The ranch was built in a copse of spruce and hard- wood and there, forthe first time, wirc netting was used in the con- struction of the pens.

The ranch was built and equipped

oy Mr. (hilton, »Mr. Dalton supplying two pairs of black foxes, one of which had been secured at Morcll, P. E. island, and the other from Lewis Spence of Bcdeque. The pant- ners never experimented with west- ern black foxes. They kept the strain pure and to prevent too much breeding, secured from t;ippers from tins: to time native eastern foxes of good quality. .Only the best were retained from year to year for breeding purposes. The fisst dens or nests were hollow logs brought to Lho ranch, but in time it was learn- ed thai this occasion to the breeding moth- er wus unnecessary and the mod- ern kennell was eventually substitut- ed.

'The problem of selectipg the most

suitable food for the annuals had to be studied and solved. In this con- nection lt might be said that one of the most important of the early dis- coveries wns that whole wheat bread furnished a wholesome and complete food. _ ` In the late 00's three .other men, fdnin-es Tiiplin, James Gordon and ._‘Sllas`}inyner became interested in -tha possibilities of domesticatlng gone' and cultivating their fur? They _attained n modicum of success rear- ing several litters df silver foxes. “in 1,097 Mr. Dniten bun: n i-snail

_inercial importance of the industry. FOX BREEDING- AS AN- INDUSTRY i _ . _

'Three siiccessivdyears of large pro- fits have dcmonstriled that silver fox breeding is by far the most luc- rative live stock industry in the world today, and tho confidence, in its future by thoseengaged in it was ,never before so strong and firm as it is now. That. -confidence rests -upon the following well-established facts: l That. the native silver fox of Prince Edward Island produces the most valuable pelt known to com- merce nnd has broken all previous _records on the London fur-market.

That the strain has been iiuprovgd by careful breeding so ns to eiiniire the reproduction of h‘igli pelt values 'from generation to gcneratioiif. `-

'Phnt the conllitlous of s0il nnd

The sliver balck foxes of Prince

Edward Island are at present being bred nnd marketed Purely for breed- .ing purposes. Those interested in thc fur industry and stock-breeders gon- erelly have been quick t,. rcnllzs the creat import-_ince and immense possi- bilities -of the new industry. Fox ranching as an industry has spread over Eastern Canada and the north- eastern status America, and the de-_ niand for pedigreed Prince Edward Island foxes has been greater than the supply. This led _to the intro- duction of Ncwfoiindiand nnd western foies as breeders, but the progeny of theso do not bear the peculiar char- acteristics which havs attracted the attention of and commanded fthe hign price from London buyers.
