The farmer, (our author reflects.) has to take what comes in the shape of weather; he must control diseases of plants and insects. and he must sow superior strains of seeds. But when he has the good fortune to surmount all his trou- bles, he still has the greatest pro- blem of all-to market his goods fitably. He grades them, em ted. and takes every precaution in shipping. “Locked up n that shipment is all that the farmer h g in cash returns for his years work."

If it were only for the Rood he did by point- inz out to ranchers their undesir- able foxes his appointment would be well worth while. This season it is hoped that Mr. Burke can have additional men under him who will go from ranch to ranch and point out to fox farmers their slack points and when the fur has matured in the fall advise them to discard non- paying types. We all have them and the quicker we Rot rrid of them the better for us and for the gen- eral price level.

He did not know of any blue fox farms in Denmark. They come from Ice- land but the pelts are sold in Den- mark. Some blue foxes are bred in Norway. ’I'he ranchers he talked to were quite optimistic about the future. but realize they must breed the better class foxes. There-is quite a lame duty on live silver foxes. also Delis. entering Denmark. He believes it is about 20 per cent or more. The climate of Denmark is mild. although the months of No- vember and December are clear and cold. In January and Febru- arv the weather is rainy and much milder. which he believes unfav- orable for breedini! purposes. Mr. Llepmann took out Canadian citi- zenship papers last vear and in- tends to remain in this Province. Looking into a fox den a few days ago F. G. Kennedy. Southport was surpr to see five pups whose fur resembled in color a glorified blondels.

Mr. Weiss. who is acquainted with conditions there. says people who pay these fencybprm are making a. mistake. spwilllltifln- as the market cannot remain at this high level. Platinum skins are too pale and have not enoudh character to be worked up success- fully into capes. and what is more serious they can easily be imitated by a dyed white fox.
