WINNIPEG, Feb. H-Hllf-a-mii- lion bushels of Canadian wheat were sold to the United Kingdom today, but lethariyy prevailed over the Win- nipeg Gran Exchange. After one of quietest session on record, prices closed unchanged to l5, cont lower.

May future closed at 83% cents, its price range confined to 1-10th can , July, the "active" mouth with. ran e of 1,5 cent, closed at 82% cents.

'1‘ s exports, best in some days, were not. reflected in pit operations, possibly due to the fact the "hedges" may have been “ilitad" previously. The wheat was destined for shipment from Vancouver.

Closing of United States markets in celebration of George Washington's bil-thdhy resulted in a restricted news service, and was the signal for an un-

official holiday here. Thu-pit often was deserted. Liverpool prices wcukcneti in the

West Poinifighthouse

As a child I loved to watch it From my window in the night: As it flashed its lustrous bescdn Alternating red and white.

And I wondered if my father

As he sailed the ocean blue

And caught sight of West Point Lighthouse

Knew that 1 ms watching too.

Often men the atom-clouds gath- ¢ .

And the seas were lashed in foam By the piercing blasts o! Autumn Which oft rocked our humble home.

Causing every bolt and rafter

To complain with dismal creek. Like the stilien protest offered When the. strong oppress the weak.

Have I heard my mother murmur As the shades of night came down: God those at sea, and grant

a

this fierce storm may

Bile would wander to the window And. look out toward the shore, Where the waves were breaking

Wildly As they oft had done before.

Well I knew that she was thinking 0f my father far from lend: Wondering whether his frail vessel Would the angry waves withstand.

And she always seemed contented when the rays of red and white, Prom the tower of the lighthouse Flashed their essage through the night.

For it spoke to her o: guidance for the sailors in that. gale, W110 atzrovc haul to make the har-

BRINGING UP FATHER

l-l. J. Kennedy rcturnrsd recently from a. meeting of representatives of Purina, Flux Chow‘ brought to- gether by the Canadian manage- ment. Jack is agent for Milligan and Morrison and covered ti»: en- tire province and made a ‘very fine showing with the products last sea- son.

The first number of “Canadian Silver Fox and m" arrived a few days ago. This is a new magazine published in “roronto and official organ of the Canadian National Sil- ver Fox Breeders‘ Association. A copy has been sent to all members in Canada. Leading articles are “Polygamous Mating n! Males" by Lowell W. Harlcosk. Summersidc. “Fox Farming as an Occupation." by Dr. Ronald G. Law, 13.11.80, D.V.Sc. "Report of Canadian NI- tlonal Silvnr Fox Breeders‘ Asso- ciation Annual Meeting," and other news.

This is s. magazine that we be- lieve our fur farmers will receive mnside nbifi benefit from. In sub- sequent issues they are planning in have articles from some of the best minds in the industry.

President Roosevelt in his annual ‘ ',, ‘ message on January ‘lth. told Congress that While at this time he did not favor additional taxes the nuisance taxes would be continued after their schedule dates of ex- piry of June and July of this year. Among the taxes which recom- mended retaining were t se on furs including the 50 percent duty on raw Silver Fiox furs.

The above is not very heartening news to Canadian Silver Fox farm- ers. However, one of the products that our local representatives have asked to be included in the reci- procity discussions is the taking off of the duty on Silver Fox furs, or its material reduction. With it re- moved we could secure from 25 per cent to 50 per cent more for our pale silvers than we do at pres- ent. Pale slivers are the fashion- able furs in the U. S. A. The last couple of years they have shipped large quantities of their blacks and dark silvers to Inndon. making

ompetdtion that much harder for us in that market.

The duty on Silver 1P0): furs ls opposed by the fur dealers and manufacturers L they know the superiority of Canadian furs and also that their admission would give them s. greater selection and more reasonable prices.

A meeting of the Directors of the Silver Fox Exhibitors’ Association of Prince Edward Island. will be held in Charlottetown Wednesday afternoon, February 27th.

President L. J. O’Rielly of the American National Fox and Fur Breeders’ Association recently ad- vised members that steps were be- ing taken to put a. stop to the smuggling of Silver Fox pelts from Canada and Europe into the Unit- cd States. He said the 50 per cent duty has provided a protective tar- iff wall that has proved of immense value to the fur farmers of the United States. and asks for infor- motion that will help in uncover- ing the channels through which U1)? contraband pelts are entering the country so that he can relay it to the U. S. Customs Department.

Charles M. Daniels who will be remembered as a big figure at Am- erican fox shows some twelve years or mom ggd. ks still conduct- ing his fox ranch in the Adiron- dacks and making a. success of it. Daniels is a. splendid figure of a man and was at one time s world's champion swimmer.

silver Foams, descendants oi two pairs purchased on Prince Edward Island some seventeen years ago, are still being raised on the sum- mer estate of J. Pisrpont Morgan, the noted New York financier. Cer- tificates fol- tliese foxes were made out by the silnzr Black Fox Breed- ers‘ Association of Prince Efward Island, of which E. R. Brow is still ... ident.

Karakul sheep farming is attrac- ting the attention of ranchers in sections of Idaho. There are several small flocks in thn vicinity of Twin Fails. The biggest breeders are Bartholoms. Bros, of Aberdeen. who are running 100 ewes and several M811 bNd Imm- n we remember correctly Mr. J.

Angora. wool rabbits are adver- tised for sale in a westcrrunagazine. The ad says they can be raised on vacant lots, that. their white silky wool is eight times warmer than sheep's wool, lighter than swa-ris- down and finer than silk. Can you beat that for s11 ad?

Exports of furs and fur nlanu- facturers during the first ten months of i934 from the United Stains were valued at $l9,165,000., an increase of 6i percent over the export of these commodities dur- lng the previous year. The princi- pal types were muskrat, cpposum and fox in the order named.

Wesleyan University of Mitchell, S. D., has started a fox farm with a. trio of Silver Foxes and c. trio of blue foxes given in payment of tuition by a. student. The student will care for the faxes and necelve full credit for his board and 111cm while at school.

Fromm Bros, Hamburg, Wiscon- sin, the largest breeders of Silver Foxes in the world, are exhibiting the same fur display which tlrny —had at the Chicago World's Fair. at the forthcoming International ‘Irade Fair which will be hold in the Grand Central Palace. London. the latter part of this month. It will be just too bad if the Europeans take to Fromm icxrs rather than our Canadian silvers. However, we do not think there is very much
