Just as the ‘cow is now bred land fed 70f the maximum produc- |tion of milk. and the hog for the :l'llBXiIfl1lm producfon of hard fat, and the lien for the maximum pm- duction of eggs. the fox should he ‘bred for the maximum production of excellent fur. Other animate ; have undergone considerable dhange ,in their feeding habits by reason of their domestication in order to in. sure increased productive effective- ness. It is obvious that during the domestication of the fox its dietary needs will probably be nmdiflerl from those of wild life in order to secure better fur quality and quan- llly., v Fox farmers face a very real problem in the quantitative prod- uctlon deficiency of the animal. My figures seem to show that there is an average unproductlveness af- flicttng some 20 per cent of the female animals. and that this un- ‘Pivductiveness, excluding purely an- atomlcal defects. is traceable to While visiting the Fox Show call in and see our i FULL LINE i of FARM MACHINERY arid TRACTORS "Massey Harris 00-.

It is interesting to observe that the measures which are dfrccted to ; increasing fox fertility through ad- justment of the fat metabolism and the restoration of a surplus of vit- amin E to the diet result also inan immediate and exceedinglysatisfac- iory improvement in the quality of the fur; and this is exactly as might be expected, since cxcelfent fur is nothing more nor less than a reflection of perfect health. nSllllFPS lll-ZllYllllllTEll near iiisni.
