His rverritcriv includes the fox fanming zoncs of Canada and the Unitcd states and he is probably covering more ground than almost anyone connected with fur farming.

F J. Kennedy it 1:0 ls lmpecllflg fox ranchrs for the Provlncml Government, is of the opinion that the number of pelts that Will be marketed in this province this sea- son will not exceed 20,000, and llhll includes a 4021. out of breedini stock. Mr Kennedy has been through most of K1ng’s and Queens‘ counties but sl-ates he has not visitcd Prince County ranches, lbut from llllO-lnlfiilJll RCOIVQd he believed that his figiucs are okay. He also said t-hut color of the foxes this year is the best he has seen but that polling should not take plﬂcg 11111-11 mid-December, because uncst of the‘ IUXC; have been fed on cubcs. cr cCrOals with meat and will require a longer time to dc- ‘vclop a proper coat of fur.

From a knowbe ge of the sequ- ence of the growth of the fur and therefore of the priming process over the body of the fox, we know that if the area at. the nape of the ncck of the fox is fully furred thcrn the nest- of the pelt must al- ready have reached the prime state.

priming promss, however, place as early in the season in pup foxes as in adult animals. Studies oar- rled out at the Dominion Exper- imental Fox Ranch showed that in groups of pup foxes receiving the same diet and housed under comparable conditions, primenesa occurred about 3 to 4 weeks later than in adult foxes.

It has also been noted that cer- tain strains of foxes prime earlier in the season than others. Heavy feeding of meat tends 11o force the growth of fur hairs, particularly the guard fur, while the cereal por- tion of the ration tends to fatten fdXfs and favor a denser growth of underfur. If a fox ration CCIi- tains too high a pro rtion of cereal early in the f season, 011a foxes become oveirfat and the imderfu; grOiWs art the expense of tihe guard fur, giving rise to a. woolly pelt wlth illlin leather that tends to b-rcak open readily and is (ieficietit in guard fur hairs

ideal conditions are attained when a. balanced growth of guard and undenfur takes place and the fur reaches the prime state before it begins to go off color.’

Oolor in fox peil-s is affected by several factors, some of which are common with those hastening or retarding the =5. Cer- tain dietary factors are knovm to have a d inite tendency to cause fox fur to go off color. Among these the feeding of fatty fish s/uch as smelts. capfin, mackerel and herring have be:n found to cause the ful- to lose its Jet black color and to assume a. rusty hue Fish- meal has been proven to llithfﬁn the color of fox fur, particularly the imderfur, giving the animals s. grey appearance.

The heavy feeding of horsemeat and whole milk have also been suspected of forcing the ‘growth of fox fur and shortening e period during which the fur is prime be- fore the color deteriorates.

Other environmental agencies which are known to cause off- coiourcd pelts are ultra violet rays of sunlight in the presence of moisture. Thus foxes which are housed in pens exposed to the ram and sun usually have pelts of 1n- Ierlor color t-o those kept in ovvvr- ed sheds, similarly, it is found than. in sheds which have wire floors there is less straining of the belly fur from urine and ammonia fumes than on board floored pens. However, some cutting or chafing of the fur around the hips takel place in “dire floored pens. This can be reduced to some extent by using 1 inch mesh wire and by bedding the wire floors with hay or straw during 1111c furring season. The bedding, however, must be kept changed regularly or it- will become soiled with urine and iffils, 11nd will defeat the punpcs 1:1‘ 1119 sanitary‘ \Vll‘C-flt‘17l1(>d 11s Whore labor is scarce it woud be advisable to omit such bedding and the slight chafing of the fur caused by the bare wire would be more 111ml com iensatrd {:r by clrar-

In order to obtain maximum pylds Icy fcx pelts they should be good color in t-he underfur, guard and stvcred hairs.
