TIMELY NOTES ON FUR TOPICS

Women's Wear Daily. New York. carries a despatch from Milwaukee. Wisconsin. stating that Ed Fromm. of Fromm Bro- thers Mink Ranch. states that no decision has been 1 aclied as to how they plant to sell their mink crop. ll. said the ranch has been too busy growing mink to reach a decision on market- ing, but indicated that one soon would be forthcoming. He also confirmed a report that Fromm Bros. mink ranch has severed connection with EMBA.

The name oi Fromm Bros. has gone far and wide. principally because, from a very small be- ginning. they became the world a greatest breeders of silver foxes. producing as many as 50.000 pelts in a season. Their slogan was: "Bright with Silver." and until the decline of silver foxes in favor. in the late 1940's. they held their own auctions and be- cause oi tbs large duties on sil- ver fox furs. which they were innuentiel in having the United states government adopt - con- trolled the United States mar- ket. They also did considerable busiiieas in South America.

A short story about them may be interesting to our readers. Back in ION, the Fromm boys heard about the big money that could made In producing sil- ver foxes. They were. at that time. in addition to working on their big farm. growing Ginseng in the woods where it was obtain- able (wild) in small Quantities. This tuber was highly with wealthy Chinamen. and brought as high as 318 a pound. It was very difficult to produce but the Fromm brothers. by hard work and study. made a suc- cess of it.

it was with Ginseng money that they bought their first foxes in 1908. and continued buying for several years. but they did not succeed in producing ailvars. some of the (axes they bought were horn Jamaa Kane. whose travels in Northern Alberta and Alaska kept him in touch with the Indians and others who were trapping the silver for. which was then so hiuily prised by the German. Austrian and Bus- aian nobility. Kane supplied them with foxes for three years. but they did not produce a silver. and then finally. he sold them three pairs for 36.500 - all wild- caught silvers. To raise the mon- ey. their mother. Anna Fromm. mortgaged the farm which was in her own title for 30.500.

It was a big gamble. and for- tunately it paid off. Silvers ap- peared with ths nest breeding season. and the Ginseng crop was also a large one. As years went by. they adopted the plan of breeding the brightest silvers and their slogan was - "Bright

tasted the United states mar- ket. had their own warehouses and display rooms. where the buyers came from New York. Chicago. Milwaukee and other centres. to secure their for re- quiremeiits. . THIN MINI

When the silver for boom host- ed, they were Already well not in mink farming. and are the largest reducers in the United States. hey are also producers of Froi'nm”s Distemper vaccine. which is widely used by mink farmers.

brings back to memory thoughts of the long ago. when the writ- er. with the late J. Stanley Wed- lock, the late Fenian R. New- some. and the late Fletcher Jor- dan. were managers of the Ca- nada Fox Exchange. which was located at Prowse Bros, Ltd.. corner. We dealt in silver fox company shares. bought options from ranchers in the province. and sold them to companies and we also imported silver foxes from the Yukon and Northern Saskatchewan. One oi the most reliable suppliers we dealt with was James Kane and some of the silvers that he sent us were the forebearers oi descendants that brought very high price in the world's pelt market.

The summer of 1914, didn't seem very much different from that of 1913; enquiries were com- ing in from the United States and various parts of Canada. and the silver fox industry seem- ed to be on a very sound basis. Then in July of that year. the Emperor of Germany started to strut around in military attire. and mobilized his military forc- es. The continent became alarm- ed. particularly France. but Kais- er Wilhelm had shook his mailed fist so often that most people said: "Oh. he is Just blusteriiig again." '

On the 3rd of August. we re- ceived a wire from James Kane, stating that he had four pairs of silver foxes of extra good qual- ity. also two extra females, that he would sell us for 820,000. It looked like a good buy. and my partners were all for accepting it. but I was not. I had been a member of the All-Canadian Ar- tillery team wbich competed with the British in 1911: we spent more than a month in that beau- tiful land. fir in g competitively with field artillery. heavy artill- ery and garrison artillery alainat British taains. and being antar- taiasd at several "messes" of the

At these functions. the conver- sation would turn on the great preparations the Germans were making for war. and the very little heed that the British (OV- eriiment, with Prime Minister Asquith at the head. would take of it. The artlllerymen were short of heavy howltzen. of which the Germans were turning out thou- aanda. so with the above thought in mind. I tried to dissuade them from sending a telegram of ac- ceptance, but they carried the day. The iaiegrarn was made out. and as it was nearly six o- clock. we started for our homes. We all had cars. and I offered to take the telegram down to the Western union office at the bot- tom of Water street. But instead of sending it. I put it in my pocket. The next morning. when I got up. the first thing as al-l ways. I picked up the Guardian. and there in large type were the words: "Germaiw l-las De- clared War." An hour later I met my friendrat the Fox Ex-

At that tirrie. war in such a distant place and the consequence. that would follow their going overseas and engaging in it, seemed an exam- ple of the greatest courage and loyalty to king and country. I am glad to have an opportunity of bringing this to the attention of all their island friends.
