TIMELY Nous on run FARMING

The Hudson's Bay Company tur -sales department in Montreal, P.Q., are informing mink ranch ex‘-s throughout the Dominion that complete insurance coverage for live minlk is av-ailaible to all mink ranchers through them. Such in- surance will cover your mink against disease, and all other phy- sical hazards.

Adult animals may be insured at any time during the year, the new season's hits from June 15. A study of the many risks which mink can be protected from will reveal the importance of this in- surance, and it is certainly a comforting type of policy to have. The Hudson’s Bay reputation is the best, resulting from square

ifiediveterinariian, who, early in the winter, bought a cub bear and fitted up a place tor him in the ranch. Litters were practical- ly nil in 1914, and that, together with the outbreak of the war that year, led to the folding up of the company.

IN MEMORIAM

At Birch Hill, Lot 14, on the morning of May 30, 1953 W61‘? passed away to the Great ‘Be- yond, Mr. Arthur Ma«c1Lean, a highly respected citizen of that community.

During the past ‘decade Mr. Mam-(Lean had to forego his act-

deali-ng since 1670. THE GOLDEN ERA

In the May issue of “The Fur

Trade Journal” there is a reprint of a eulogy to James Tuplin, who passed away in O’Lea-ry, P.E.I. on March 29, 1948. Mr. Jim Tup- lin belonged to.t-he “golden era” of silver fox farming when foxes reached fantastic figures, and the word “fox” was on almost every- one’: lips.

It was his father, Robert Tup- lin, who started the fortunes of the family by buying a pair of foxes for $650 from his friend and hunting companion, Charles Dal- ton. That would be in. the late 1890’s, when Dalton and Oulton were establishing themselves and proving that ﬁoxes could be bred in captivity. Mr. Tuplin had a companion in hi-s venture, Hud- son Gordon, -and together they

ivities on the lam and in the district where he resided, due to an accident which made him a semi-invalid during the greater part of that time.

In the community, in the church and especially in. the home where through the years those dear to

him kindly ministered to his

needs, he will he greatly missed. Born in B-ay-side, the eldest child of John A. Mac:Lean and

Lydia ((1VllacArthrur) Macbean, the

deceased had passed the allotted span of life and had almost reach- ed tour score years. Following in. the iootsteps of his father, he early in life became a f‘-armer and later with his bride, the former Rose Adains, established a home near that of his child- hood. In 1922 he purchased the property of the late Mr. H. D. Dolbie, Birch Hill, and with his

Jim, in his early boyhood days, was like all the fox pioneers - a great sportsman, keen hunter of all types of game and wild

Eur-bearing animals, w hi c h abounded in the woods in section of the country. Early in the 1900’: he set up his own fox ranch; he was active, enengetic, resource fuland intelligent, and he soon acquired the secrets of fox farm- ing. His pelts, shipped to C. M. Lampson Co., London, England,

wife and children took charge of this fine property and success- fully maintained it. In the borne friends were entertained, the stranger welcomed, and the needy suocoured.

Worldly things, however, were

not allowed to possess his life. Things eternal were of greater importance. He was a member of Lot 14 Presbyterian Church which throughout his life he sup- ported and in which as long as he was able, he worshipped.

The writer of these notes made his first visit to the Tu-plin ranch in the tall of 1913 and bought a female silver fox pup for $8,500. She was one of the most beauti- ful I have ever seen and was purchased to fill an order that had come to the Canada Fox Evxichauge oi which the writer was a member. The following year the outbreak of World War I on August 4 put a compelte crimp into the fox industry, and it did not recover until a year or two later when the United States became a marlket for sil- ver fox furs.

In the 1I9:20’s, Mr. Tuplin dis- posed of his fox and breeding stock to the late W. K. Rogers and associates. The Tiuplins were extremely pleased to have visit- ors, and Mrs. Tuplin was an ex- cellent hostess. Jim had a habit of pulling $1,000 bills out of his hair, but we never succeeded in

stunt that pleased him very much was to have a visitor go for a car ride with him to another part of his domain, about two miles away. When the car was up to about 40 m.p.h., Jim would drop the steering wheel and engage in conversation with the parties in the back seat, but there never was an accident.

40 PER CENT DIVIDEND

Jim was not as shrewd, finan- cially, as his contemporary and hunting companion, Charles Dal- ton of Tignish, who, in the fall of 1912 sold 20 pairs of breeders and gave a guaranteed produc- tion of 50 pups the following fall to a local syndicate. The price Was $500,000 They were capital- 15751 by_ the company at $625,000 and a dividend of 40 penceni; w.-as Ellgrsatxiteed.

Fleming Asks Co—cperciiion In Bond Issues

MURRAY BAY, Que. (OP) — Finance Minister Fleming Thurs- day called for full co - operation ‘from Canada's investment deal- ers in government plans to raise a record $3,400.000.000 in bond 1'5" sues this year.

“'1 appeal to your patriotism as well as your good business sense in seeking your co-operation,” he said in an address before the In- vestment Dealers Asso.cia.tion.

“The raising of a total of ap-

sale of bonds or other securities is indeed a formidable undertak- ing. We hope to do it without causing an undue strain, upon the financial resources of the Cana- dian investment market and with due consideration of the needs of provinces, municipalities and business in the same market. “Moreover, the policy of the government has naturally been to seek to do its financing at the most favorable interest rates.”

Mr. Fleming said the govern- ment will be going to the market -with large - scale bond issues roughly almost every three months, seeking to float as many long-term bonds as possible.

He expected also to achieve I new high ﬂoating of a new Can- ada savings bond 1 sues next fall, exceeding the pr vious high of $1,'217,ooo,ooo sold last year.
