Timely Notes

(Continued from Page 6)

We do not know just how a Canadian shipper would fare oii if he sent his pelts to London and we are making inquiries, that is to say would he be paid in British pounds and ii so could he convert these into Canadian currency at 84-00 for the pound - we do not think so, in fact we understand that the pound can be bought as low as $2.80. No doubt now that Hon. Mr. Abbott, Minister oi Fin- ance, is in London some arrange- ment will be made in regard to this matter.

Ilondon. Sept. 23 - Hudson's Bay Co. concluded its selling today and reported for the two-day ses- sion that silver fox prices were very firm. The auction company also noted that pearl platinas were very firm and all Platinas had ad- vanced 15 per cent over the last sale.

Best goods were in strongest de- mand, with white-marks mainly withdrawn, the auction house add- ed

London, Sept. 25 — Good color- ed silver iox sold well here today, at prices i0 per cent above the pre-sale market, as Anning, Chad- wick & Kiver, Ltd., concluded a three-day auction.

Off colored goods were unchang- ed where sold. The silver iox of- fering was 55 per cent sold. Three- quarter slivers were in greatest demand, over 90 per cent. being taken.

Pearl platinums were 50 per cent sold at firm prices. Piatinas were 80 per cent sold, with highly com- petitive bidding.

Top prices today were iull sil- vers good colors, t7 17s 6d; ordin- ary colors. £6 10s; three-quarter silvers good colors, £9 10s; ordinary colors £4 2s 6d; half silvers, £6 12s lid; quarter silvers £3 10s; interiors, 34s; pearl platinum. £16 15s; plat- inas, £20.

Meat prices in Boston and other American cities continued to pre- }. vail at high levels and dealers there in the horse meat section state they are noticing an upward trend in their business such as was prevalent during the clays oi meal. shortages in the war years. They stale that prices for horse meat have gone up quite a bit since war days. Generally it is selling there at 21, 25 and 30 cents a pound de- pending on the cut. It comes to them in the slime style cuts as beef roasts and steaks of top oi the round, porterhouse, tenderloin, rump and sirloin and is in good supply at present. It is no wonder that the fox ranches have to pay fancy prices for the poorer cuts of horse moat from the thinner horses and rejects when gOOCI horse meat ran be sold at such iancy prices as above. Not until the price oi beet comes down to a reasonable figure can we expect to feed our foxes for anything like the figures oi the oays oi old. We mentioned some time ago that Fromm Bros. are experimenting with Soy bean meal hoping to be able to use the veg- etable protein in it as a substitute for the protein in meat.

‘in connection with the Seattle- Aiaska sale held ln September at which various types of furs were offered. we notice that an offer- ing oi 4,000 silver fox was 40% sold with fuils’ bringing $22. to $30; three-quarters, $18. to $21 and halves $13. to $16; 200 platinum silvers were 52".’. sold, mediums $50. darks $35 and pales $35. It was the first sale that we lfave noticed lately where white faced moved at

anything like decent figures; 700. were 28G’. sold; pales brought $35.!

mediums $26 and darks $20. White

Its loveliness increases; it

Pass into nothinlbess."

The slowly setting sun in evening grandeur, Spread o'er the water's blue a path oi gold;

The moon's soft beams unwind a scrdl oi silver Across the bay within night's deepening fold. Thou hast framed a place oi beauty By His Great Hand upon this Isle so fair:

A town caressed by gently waited iiephyrs.

Bathed with. the clover-scented sunny air.

O, Naturel

The days so filled with fragrant summer breeze Blend into Autumn's fullness o'er the land;

In majesty her flaming mantle

Each fern and irond—each stately tree so grand. Here narrow streets of horse and buggy memory,

Tree-arched by avenues oi leafy

Don evening dress beneath The l-land oi Wlsdomi In glory gowned by Autumn's wondrous Queen.

Wide boulevards tree-iririged—with stately mansions Deepset on lawns of restful velvet sheen,

Would seem indeed o'er that enchanted threshold Oi wonderland - where iairy paths have been.

Old homes abound within nostalgic gardens,

With holiyhocks and roses round

Where memories cling like fragrance in the moonlight! Born in the happy bygone hours of yore.

Fringed all about with gently sloping basins, l Where Nature bathes her face in morning's dew. IJHCBICSS in her setting!

Ascribed in gold as Natures biilet-cioux.

O! lovely town of Suminerside so charming!

Thy beauties grow firm-rooted in each heart;

A bower where friendships fragrance ever-sweiiing_- Is oi our Crescent Isle indeed a part.

fox and blue fox were offered and withdrawn for lack of interest.

The fall weather is here and sooner than we expect a cold spell may come in and catch us un-

iiwares. We remember such a hap-

pening in 1935. Roots were frozen in the ground and a lot oi loss was sustained by farmers. Fox ranch- ers who had not pelted early iound it difficult to fix up their ranch before the renl cold hit. This might be such a season so it is well to get your little repairs around the ranch done while the good wea- ther holds. Each pen should be moked over and if there are any weak spots or if the den or house requires new boards or shingles these should be put on. Drafts oi- ien cause the death otyoung pups if born in March or early April. Ground wire should be gone over if pens are of that type, A num- ber of ranchers now cut the ten- dons of their foxes and that pre- vents them from digging. We have

used that method for the past coup- .

ie of years and found it quite sat- isfactory. It is simple and appar- ently does not do any harm to the fox.

While it is a bit early to make selections as foxes have not iurved out, particularly the young ones. to a point wuiere definite decision can be made_ yet it would be a good idea to go over your old ones and decide on those that will need re- placing and also figure on the best

pelting date for them. Sometimes ‘

we leave the pelting oi adults too late and the iur has gone ofi a bit, that is its bloom is shed, but. this year we are planning not to neglect the matter. There is the added fact that if the fur is rea- sonably prime either on an adult or pup, considerable saving can be made in feed. Two of the best pelts we ever took off in the old days were removed around the first week in November, but oi course

they had been kept in the open. .

However, looking ovei-‘some oi the foxes in the sheds the other day we decided that around the first week in November they would be quite ready. It is not a good prac- tice though to pelt pups that early as the skin is not prime and when dressed the iur drops out, causing annoyance and loss to the dealer or wearer.

In several oi the magazines we have noticed where consignment houses are complaining oi ranches who do not thoroughly clean out. the fat from the paws when peli- ing. Then they turn these paws inside the pelt and the result is that after a while they decompose. Things such as the above have considerable to do with injuring the reputation oi silver fox and each oi us must strive to prevent any stigma being laid on our prod- uct. For the next few years at least we, will have an upward climb to get our product back into public favor and every effort must be made to prgduce a good-looking pelt, a well-furred Deli 5nd l W9“ cured or dressed 991l-
