The sa e of Norwegian blue fox pelts last week showed prices about equal to last year's sale. The average pric was between $15.00 and $16.00. Of the 4.000 silver fox offered at. auction a. few days nrehsusly 80 per cent were sold. Prices were moderate. best figures being for full ellvere at $50.00. During the month of December 36.975 silver fox pelts went through the United States customs from Canada valued at $590,782. This was a. greater number than for the eievez. previous months of the year for which the aggregate num- ber was 34,567 skins valued at $692,000. The total exports of sil- ver fox pelts from Canada to the United States during the year was 71,542 skins with an aggregate value of $1,273,000 as compared with 12.768 skins with an aggreg- age value of $304,700 for the year 1 36. number The average value of the skins exported in 1939 was $17.80 as a- gainst an average of nearly $24.00 for the year 1938. And now we come to an even more interesting part of our fur export statement and that is the total exports of Canadian silver fox pelts to all parts of the world for the year i939 was 278.139 skins with an ag- gregate value of $5,304.59’). Com- paring these with the exports for i938 we find that they exceeded that year very considerably. In i938, 242,250 skins were exported valued at rotigidy $5,700.000. These figures are indicative of the fact that in i939 a great many breeding foxes were pelted and they ac- counted for the considerable in- crease in the number of foxes ex- ported . V. S.
