In the first place it should be clearly understood tiiat the brown shade is dlie to a lack of the black pigment in the hair follicles. The hair follicles are long hollowl cy- zlinclers with coloured transparent walls. When the hair follicles arc filled with the black pigment the colour of the cell walls is entirely mulsked which gives the hair's a idcnse black colour and the (lensi- Ity of the colour is in proportion to ithe amount of the black pigment {present in the hair follicles. Dur- ling the early stages of the growth Imuch u“ inf the fur the hairs arc relatively; . ‘small both in diameter and ill f length, and it docs not take much pigment to mask the colour of the cell walls, giving the hairs a black l appearance. but as the hairs grow ' in length and width, the pigment.

For this rcason fox breeders have made a habit of pelting their foxes ilvhilc the ftlr is growing in. length and in diam:- ter. Fox furs are the only lotig liar- ed furs tllat ladies can wcar as Ineck pieces. Length is i1 most lie- ‘sirable quality alld it means money’ lto the fox breeders and it will not ibe to their benefit to produce sil- fver fox fur that goes brown while git is still growing. in length llnd lividth. What is wanted is tllc pro- iduction of the black tiigrnrnt so ,‘that no matter how great the dc- ivelopment of the hairs may be in length and diameter, there will be ;sufficlent colour to mask the col- iour of the cell walls. Ilowevel" s may enhance the selling, price of the pelts, to a nlucll great- er extent it will benefit the breed- ing quality and the general health of the foxes Now, what would be the effect of the presence or ab- sence -of the black pigment upon begins to msscnflnate and H, Wm‘ ltllfi condition and breeding quali- |the growth of the hairs. {should not be a simultaneous pro- gductlon of the black pigment, the ‘fur will acquire a brown shade iwhich will become more pronounc- ir-d as the hairs grow in length and ,width. As the season progresses "he out: Ide shell of the hair folli- ‘ cles acquires a brown shade. but vcr brown the shade of the outside shell, if the hair follicles contain a largo amount of the pig- ment. it will entirely mask that brnvrn colour and give the fur a dense black appearance. Fox bree- ders would be well advised to get away from the idea. that the fur has acquired a brown shade bc- cause lt has gone past prime. In all cases the appearance of the browil shadc is due to the fact that the fur is growing in length and in width, but there is not sufficient colour to inarlk the colour of the "ell ivalls. and while the outside lfncll of the hair follicles tarnish tom them Ho! o! the foxes? It ‘is n. well knmvn lfflCf, that light colours reflect lllf.‘ |rays of sunlight and dark coltiurs iabsorb them. In summer pcnpl» ‘l wcar light clothing and in the uln- | ter dark for the simple reason that lthey are more colllfortablc null ‘cooler in light clothing during the lsummer and that there is moi-l- dark clothes during the winter The light clothes reflect the of heat so that the wearer docs not become uncomfortably llot and the dark clothes absorb the heat and they do not feel so tinvonlfortllilli cold In the weather bureaus situated in the different parts of the Dolli- inion for making weather reports, there are instruments for record- ing the amount of sunshine each day. There are two bulbs tilnccd upon the top of the building which are connected with the recording instrument, each bulb being about the size of the fist. Tile inside of the one bulb is painted with black pigment, the other one is sllvcrctl When the temperature of the two bulbs is the same, no clectril: cur- rent passes through the instru- ment, but. when the black bulb is warmer than the other an electric current passes through the instru- ment. When the sun shines the bulb painted black immediately becomes warmer than the silver bulb, switching on the current at the same time making a registered line on n. revolving cylinder so that the duration of the shining of the sun ls recorded on that cylinder. These instruments are so construc- ted that on cloudy days, it tllc sun just breaks through the clouds for a few moments. this ls recorded by the instrument or if on a clear titty. the sun should go behind a cloud, this also is recorded. The S"llSl- tivencss pf the instrument (lPpClldll upon the two bulbs at the top of the building. There must. be the maximum amount of pigment ill the one bulb so that it will be sell- sitive to absorb the heat and the ' other bulb must be well silvcrctl- so as to reflect the rays of heat as completely as possible. Full consideration must be given to the size and structure of the bulb n: the larger the bulb the more heat will be absorbed. ‘Pilot is to say that the amount of neat that l: absorbed or reflected is proportion- al to the amount o! colour prrrzc. and also to the amount of colour present and also to the structure of tho bulbs. The same holds true with silver foxes. Tho-greater the amount of warmth and less discomfort in the . the more efficiently fur will absorb thc beneficial rays of sunlight during the time of the year when there is a minimum amount. Many people have strange ideas of thc works of nature; they talk of the wholesale destruction of plants and treese as a wanton waslte of vegetable life; of birds and insects proving upon each other as a gross extravagance of [animal life and that nature was a Iviscious circle as if the Creator ‘lwas a more fool. Personally, I take the other view-point, us the Crea- tor beiug all ivise, that true knowl- edge can only be obtained from studying the works of the Creator, that is the fundamental principle underlying all scientific expert-- mctital work. What _llolds good with regard to the rays of heat being absorbed and reflected by dark and light clothes respectively and of the rays of sunlight being absorbed and reflected by the painted arid silvcred bulbs of sun- shine recording instruments, also holds true with regard to silver foxes It is all undisputed fact that under natural conditions the fur of silver foxes at the beginning 0i tho breeding season should con- ;l;lln the maximum amount of ‘ ilack pigment also should be fully idcvclopcd as regards length and Elvidth. There call only be one ill- lfcrprctationof this natural pile- fnnnlenon, that the ."_\‘Sf.L‘lll of the ffox when properly ftlrrcd is effi- icient for absorbing tlic iliuxilnum amount of the rays of the sunlight during the breeding season, the i ‘time of the year when there is a ‘llllllllllllll? zunount of sunlight. Ma- ‘lly PC0111" llavc expressed surprise that the sub-zero wcathcl‘ when the sun is ling that the foxes ivould rather lil- out and sleep in the open than stay ill their nests. In extremely cold climates people wcar ftir clothing wherever poss- iblc and there is vcry little ques- tion that the points of the fur will attract the rays of sunshine more readily and iibSOfl) whatever hrlit may be in the atmosphere just as efficiently as lightning rods will attract electricity, so that foxes have n desirable development of the fur with regard to colour and length will be nlorc efficient. in absorbing the rays of sunlight and whatever hcat may be present in the atmosphere.

Science has also demonstrated that there are certain vitamins in food that have a function similar to the rays of sunlight and these vitamins are particularly benefi- cial to growing children and ani- mals These vitamins are stored lllp in the fatty foods such as cod ‘liver oil, butter fat and certain animal fatty tissues.

It has been polluted out by the Experimental Fox :.Ranch in previous talks and thr‘ other sources that the foxes dur- ing the fall months should put or: “a. maximum amount of weight. This increase of weight is chiefly ‘due t; the storing up of fatty tis- lsue and it is well known that fox- fos when they are prime for peltiny, ‘lshoulld contain large layers of fat ,in the subcutaneous areas, also ',that the peritoneal cavity should ‘be filled with fat. It would not be ‘reasonable to assume that it was lsilnply a storage of fat to be sup- ‘iplled to the body for the‘ sole pro- lduction of heat and energy and ‘could be replaced by meat, biscuits or any other class of foods that Iliad a similar fuel value, but rath- ier that it was a storage of definite {and specific substances that are lrequircd during the breeding sea- "son The Experimental FoxRanch has demonstrated that there is a ,large requirement of the vitamins ithat- have functions similar to the rays of light during the breeding iseason, also the chief function of lthe fatty tissues is to store up those vitamins so that when the éfoxes are well furrcd with regard ‘to colour and length of fur, not ionly are they efficient during the breeding season for retaining the maximum amount of sunlight, but also during the fall months they will also absorb the rays of sun- light and those are converted into the vitamins that have a similar function to the rays of light. The fur should not only be efficient for retaining the rllys of light, but it also should be efficient for bot- tling up the sunshine as a reserve supply for the time of the year when there is a minimum amount of sunlight. just the same as the codfish bottles up the sunlight in the cod liver oil when the rays of ligllt penetrate the water so as to year when the sunlight penetrates the water only to a. very slight ex- tent The Experimental has demonstrated that when foxes are fed cod liver oil, quantities of milk animal fat and other food materials that are rich in the vitamins that have a fillie- tion similar to the rays of light that the foxes acquire a very pro- nounced brown shade and will not put on weight. That is to say they have not bottled up sunlight nor are they efficient for retaining the rays of light. Give a young man a million dollars and he will lack the inducement tn work or to make ,hitllself efficient for earning a ‘livelihood. Feed sugar to bees and ,t.hey will not bother about collect- llng honey. The same holds truc with foxes. If they are fed bottled sunshine, they will not make the system efficient for retaining tllc rays of light, neither will they store up in their own tissues the vitamins that have a function si- lnilar to the rays of light That is to‘ say that they will not pllt on wright. To produce a dense black pigment and to have a proper dc- vclopmelit of the fur. the Experi- mental Fox Ranch recommends that fox‘ breeders should avoid during the summer and fall months feeding cod liver oil in any shape or form, also ‘they should avoid feeding excesswl. quantities of whole milk, animal fats or any other food that con- tains large quantities of the vita- mins A and D. On the other hand it is advisable to feed those sub- stances during the breeding sea- son, more particularly to the foxes that have a brown shade. There- fore after the foxes have mated. but not before, the diet should contain small quantities of coll liver oil, meat that contains a cer- tain amount of fat and whole milk as soon as the weather will permit. I have stated previously that how- ever great the dlrcct loss may have been in dollars and cents on the selling price of silver fox furs, due to the presence of a brown shade, there is a. much greater loss due to the blasting effects it has upon the breeding quality of the foxes. The results of our experimental work would indicate that foxes with a brown shade may produce pups, but_ a large percentage of them are lost during the first few weeks of growth and those that are raised to maturity arc worthless from a. breeding standpoint, also they have very indifferent fur qualities. as tho fur is somewhat weak and very liable to rub. The striking part regarding foxes born from parents with ii brown shade is the fact that the first year the foxes fur out fairly well also the fur will have generally n. goozl llllliCk colour but in subsequent years tho fur, instead of improv- lng gradually gets worse and many of "them approach the samson con- dltion.

In conclusion I would warn fox breeders to guard against a brown shade in the fur of their foxes. It is the most damaging feature of fox raising. It is written that, "the sins of the fathers shall be visited upon the children to the third and fourth generations." The same holds true with silver foxes and the brown shade will ex- ert a. blasting and o. blighting in- fluence on the offsprlngs even to the- third and fourth generation, but fortunptcly for fox breeders ions from foxes with brown fur. there are not many such generat- cold and exposure but was unharmed. l filth-in the presence of n. large number of l ‘ payers and visltorlv The school was artistically deco- rated for the occasion.
