If the bottom hasn't been punch- ed out of the Canadian fox fanning industry it has at least been bﬂdil’ bent. But ranchers, who have S6911 irwo near debacles before. are hop- ing for a repeat revival.

some 2,000 fox farmers in Prince Edward Island, where the industry was first conceived 0n the 1890s. new are busv culling their herds and pelting foxes, but it is prob- able that because of abnormally low prices the fox breeding "OD- nlstlon will be cut by at. least one third.

By the end of this season. which ends December 3-1, Islander ranch- ers will have bet-ween 3060i and 40-- 000 skins to dispose of but there will fetch only an average of $12 each. This represents about half thecost of production. In June- of last year prices were good: $135 for plat- inums, 05% for whitefaces and a little less for silvers. By September they had fallen off by st least 50 per cent.

Two Bad Stumps

Fox ranchers had survived two bad SlllmlDS. The first came ln 1020. when the United States government slapped a b0 ner cent tariff on sllved Ioxes. Ranchers continued breeding. however, and a few years later lbondqn became tho great selling centre for furs. The second slump occurred at the start of the Second World War and many of the small ranchers were forced out of business. That story is repeating itself now and the minor operators have been unable to survice.

The most. recent lull can be at- tributed mostly to the dumping on the market of 103.000 Norwegian pelts - most dealers say of poor quality -- which had been in stor- age during the German occupation of Norway.

‘The skins were brought by spec- ulators and shipped to South America, Mexico and the United States. biggest markets for the Canadian industry. says one deat- er: "Their cheapness and un- attractiveness gave the industry a black eye."
