The season, just about to ii close has been u good one for fox furs. The out-look for the coming season is excellent, with the general prosperity throughout thc country, and the various requests froiifruiv Fur Dealers for fox furs leads the Fur Sales Board 'to believe that there will be a. good demand for our furs. The fox ranchers will realize more motley for their furs by shipping through the Fur Sales Board, an institution, which is organised for the benefit of fox breeders. Our record of lust ycair'p1'oves that wc can se- cure bcttcr prices than was rculizcd by other me- tl1ods_of marketing. All wc ask is for the fox hrectlcrs to use their ,iiiilgincnt und colisidcrutioii ol' the past methods of iurketing. \Vc know that your decision will be c0-0pel‘8.- tive marketing of your furs. We have the co~opcrzi- tion ot' tho lending fur deulcrs of Amcricii.

The only sul- vatzop is co-operative selling ulong such lincs as sug- §cs ‘od to us by Mr. Chester Mcliurc of' the Fur Sales oard, and this we co`_mmc dmqst highly. The one preventative for a d¢mo;§l4a{,_ion_'_of-the market is co'-operative collecting an se ling through one or ganization such ns the Sales Board." ~ _ Mr, Fraser, of' Lam_pson’s, says: “Wit_h_ regard to tile; iiing oi: pegs, _ fee1__t1i t it is _of von im. t0 the in ustlfyf thatmtl _ producers get toge __ I ns closely as possible in the marketing of .|_e_ir 'pe _ s.
