The Horse Price Cycle When the purchasing power of any k nd of livestock is calculated for a long series of years. it is found illrit. there are Pall-lil' definite cycles of purchasing 'power with a reason- riblc degree of periodicity, that is, in length of timing from peak to peak or trough to tvcugh of the waves . Accordi_ng to Professor E.C. Hop~ of the Un`vei-sity of Saskatch- ewan, the decline in horse prices, contrary to general opinion. was not due to the increase in the use of tractors, but rather to the relatively high price for horses prevailinz from 1910 to 1916. The tractor has not eliminated the price cycle of horses. it has only modified it. The rccellt low per od of the horse cycle has been l'a/ther longer than usual because the country was becoming adjusted to a permantly smaller number of horses. The horse CY¢l° has definitely tuuned. Good work horses nr-~ again becoming scarce and it will be some years before bl-eedcrs can keep up with the dc- m.1l.nd. Immediately a lltlfle more money flows into the hands of farmers. a sharp rise is to be ex- pected in horse prices. If the general lcommoditv price level should con- `iiue to r'se, horse prices will rise faster. The purchasing power of horses should continue to rise until about the year 1937. The re- -f-ar f’cld will not change this sit- ` uat:'cn. iii 9~Ci'9H8c' fund Droductionl faster than the inorcase in w'h-at-c_1nsum- ing peoples.

As regards silver foxes the supply seems to be keepingl pace with the demand. That is due to the raising of such animals ini captivity. I believe it an established and positive fact that Silver Fax farm- ing can be and is being profitably conducted in the main. VOLUME PRDDUCTION I think the statement generally used in connection with Silver Foxes, "there is hardly a limit to the Price which a thing of super- latlve beauty can command," is no longer ii. fact. This held true no doubt before the advent of the ranch raised Product. and also bc- fore the advent of the ingenious fur dyer. who by the way, is prov- ing himself one of thc most im- portant factors in the growth and development of the fur trade of the world, and particularly has this been true in the last fewi years. With the continually in- creasing supplies of Silver Foxes the first statement must become apparent to you. The whole econ- omic prlnciple of supply and de- mand ls not to be denied and par- iiC\1li\i’lY in the matter of wearing apparel for women is the factor of scarcity important in influencing prices. As to the dyers, too many of you have seen the splendid works of art in the matter of Pointed F0X€S. to deny that there is com- petition even there. And here is perhaps where I can register my first tip.

By that I do not mean for you to debase the beauty of your pro- duct at the sacrifice of quality. Miy thought is to urge you to pay n little more attention to the num- ber of animals. I believe that thc day of the five hundred dol'ar silver f0X iS Kline. The five hundred dol- lar Silver Fox has disappeared. and even the two hundred dollnr Fox is fast waning, and the sooner you recognize this and go in for quantity prcductlon, not overlooking quqiity oi' course. the sooner will you have - the more nearly correct perspective lot this business.
