AUGUST 5. 195.0 THE GUARDIAN CHAR - Silver- Fox and it A cameras wmt Mink. Farming 3 I ma-xwwww--- -.-..v.:oran.a .. The 21st annual fur auction rc- ccntly held in Leningrad, mini. drew a large attendance with up: wards of 100 buyers present from the United States and Europe. They bought most of the goods or. fered. Americans. were the main buyers of Koilnsky which advanc. ed 1096 above contract prices, also ermine and many other furs. it seems curious that with the whys of resentment that has been gen. eraied against Russia in the Unit. ed States because of the Korean incident. that its fur buyers should be the principal supporters of a Russian Case. The Canadian Farm Fur Com- mittee. of which D. 0. Stewart, Summcrside. is Executive Secre- tary, have informed us that their display of fur garments which re- zently appeared in R. T. l-folman. Ltd..windows in Summerside. will be on show in R. T. Holman. Ltd. windows in Charlottetown during Old Home Week. This will be good news to fur farmers as the display has been widely com- mented on wherever it has been exhibited and it should do much to interest more people in silver fox and its mutations. Ed Stanton, wlllr) is a New-York authority on f rs. comments as follows on mink in a recent issue of Women's Wear Daily....Al- though July has not been a very active month for mink dealers or manufacturers. standard dark skins were eagerly competed for yes- terday at the drst auction of the article here in some time. Prices were ilrm compared to June's high levels as 3593 of 23.541 skins were taken by the well- "tended sales ro'om. There was a little doubt in the minds of some mink men. prior to this sale. as to whether the market would hold firm to Mayafune levels. This un- certainty, most likely. resulted from the somewhat dull trading of the past three or four weeks. with very little actlon- reported in standard or other ranch mink types. Yesterday's results would seem to dissipate the fear of a weaker market-if fear is the correct word. when referring to that per- son who.holds a fairly substantial quantity of May-June merchand- ise. it is. no "doubt. correct. Re- tailers. on the other band. would most dly welcome a weaker raw fur market. but it does not appear ;to be in the immediate horizon. Medium and cheaper merchandise yesterday was quite atrong.. In the opinion of one highly-inafor-med mink specialist this type of goods was as strong as they have ever been this year, and that is saying quite a lot.

A small offering of abou-, 1.500 silver fox and mutation WPBI were GIT sold with prices firm to the last sale. Top platinum WII I31. pearl platinum 313, whit; face 314.50 and standard silver 316.50. Top price for the standard mink was 338.50 for males and 522.50 for females. For starlight mink the top was 833 for males and 810.50 for females. The auction company described the offering ha a fair, average collection. some in the salesroom said females ap- peared to them to be just a little easier than heretofore but this feeling was not held by everyone. A random tally of a number of pages in the mink catalogue show- ed that about 40a, of the mate; were selling for from 825 to 328.75. This compares pretty closely with a fairly similar per cent of total males which sold in this same bracket in early June and in May. About 401: of the males. in these same pages were selling for less than 325. and 2095 were more than 329. up to the top of 538.50 .for a choice lot. Females were selling mostly for 813 to 818 in this same section of the catalogue. More lots were sold above 816 than below 313. The current no work situation in the fancy dressing field appeared to have no effect on yesterday's sale. judging from the spirit of com- petition for goods. Evidently. with merchandise remaining from the year now at a low point. and the new crop still more than four months away, dealers and manu- facturers ngure they can afford to take on some additional raw skins with very little chance of getting hurt. As indicated by the high per- centage of goods sold. there was not much ranch mink limited above the salesroom's marks. As" a matter of fact. it could probably have been a 1005: sale. as was the case in June. if some of the ship- pers' limits.werc just a little bit lower. - Fromm's Laboratories. lnc.. Graf- ton, Wis.. have announced recently a new mink distemper vacclr.e- Mink Vac, which they claim will give lasting immunity against dis- ternpe. They state there is no longer the necessity of 1 lat- ing mink with two doses of dis- tempe vaccine for sustained im- munlty. With the new mink vac- cine absorption is retarded to con- stantly stimulate immunity-one dose provides the same protection as -two. This will mean consider- able less expense to the, mink rancher and less work in BM!!! the vaccine. One of the lreatert hazards of mink ranching has been ' t .

Pig Breeder.- To Visit Canada Canadian pig broaden -have in- vited Mr. .1. M. Angeli. vice-chair. man of Gloucester (Eng.) F. II. who is also governing director of Messrs. Alexander and Angeli, owncrs.of the Aidsncote herd of pedigree Large White pigs. to visit Canada this autumn. the export of 22 Ardencote Large Whites to Canada. gree pigs from Britain. on August 1st. ' The Large White has bad the benefit of nearly a century of in- ielligent development and im- movement. The first decisive step towards the foundation of the breed was the exhibition of anim- ala in 1851 by a Yorlrahiremani who became renowned for his skill in selection and feeding of pigs. It was the blood of animals bred by this humble improver that had the greatest influence in establish- ing thc Large White. and the dom- icile of this breeder in Yorkshire gave the breed its geographical title-Large Yorkshire-by which name in many parts of the world it is still known. The establishment of a pedigree- recording society in 1884 enabled breeders to correlate their aims and to concentrate on the perpet- uation of those qualities that cre- ated the demand for this pig. Among those desired points is pro- liflcacy. Another point for which the Large White is hspicuous is its length. its great length and a minimum of waste have made it dominant in a bacon market where the demand for flesh of great leanness and the highest quality is persistent. Moreover. the length of the Large White is often the flrat desideratum in attempts to improve other breeds and crosses. and as a producer of first-class animals the breed is not excelled by any. i Two countries, Belgium and Northern Ireland, have built up a national pig-breeding policy on the basis of animals bought in Britain. Denmark. Sweden, Po- land and other European coun- tries have made extensive purch- ases of pigs of this breed to strengthen their existing herds. Next among the breed's merits comes hardiness and adaptability to varying climatic conditions. A clear white skin and carcass. a high average weight gain per day. and the quality of yielding an ex- cellent pork carcass are to be add- ed.

Good fleeces are bringing prices well in advance of recent years-returns that about pay for the yearly keep of the sheep. And yet there are few suppliers of meat that regul- lllly have lamb on hand-and can- adians produce only about 20 per cent of the wool required by cm. adian manufacturers. This situation can be remedied in a very few years with profit to "W59 Who C0-Operate in the work- ing out of a solution to the decline of Canada's sheep population. By saving from slaughte the best of the annual crop of ewe lambs the breeding ewes should be doubled in at least three or four years. Even if this action were to result in a more pronounced scarcity of lamb for the table for a year or two it would be well worth while. Far- mers and ranchers south of the line last year used foresight,-to the disappointment of many in Canada-and bought up most of our ewe lambs as well as thous- ands of mature owes that easily could have been placed at home to advantage. Few Ewes Available It is too late to talk of a one- year remedy of the situation that reached an alarming peak in 1949 and early this year. Reliable re- ports indicato that few, if any. sound breeding ewes of quality will be available this fall. This leaves the salvage of ewe lambs as about the only source from which to strengthen present flocks and es- tablish new ones, Those who are interested in re- storing Cansda's sheep industry should take immediate steps to see that no ewe lambs of quality from the torso crop reach the slaughter house.

In the meantime the wool clip goes a long way in meet- ing the outlay entailed in making the start. Many Inquiries. That a. number of individuals in different parts of Canada have sensed the need for more sheep and more wool as well as the prospects of satisfactory prices for future years is indicsted in enquiries from all provin- ces regarding the source from which to get breeding stock for the establishment of new flocks and by the tendency of many flock-own- era to increase their holdings. In the past couple of years the trend has changed fmm," a small flock on every form" to "make the flock 100 or more so that the gross re- turn will be worth while in com- parison with other live stock en- deavors." Farmers and ranchers in all parts of Canada can take advant- age of the situation with bright prospects of rcmunerstive returns by taking steps immediately to make thomselves owners of some of the thousands of ewe lambs that normally go to slaughter. If they can make purchases of some sound mature ewes from which to get a lamb crop in 1051, so much the better. There is no danger of Canada being over suPDlled with either wool or lamb for many years to come-war or no war.

Sweet skim milk is best for nur- sing sows. nursing and weanling pigs. in the absence of skim milk it is necessary to provide a sub- stitute such as tanksge or a mix- ed pretein supplement in suit- able amounts. The amount of tankage to feed varies from 8 to 10 per cent for nursing and wean- lira pigs to 4 or 5 per cent for finishing market pigs and for pregnant and nursing sows. The mixed supplements should be fed according to directions supplied by the manufacturer. Minerals likely to be lacking in ordinary rations are common salt, calcium and.iodine. All pigs rc- quirs salt at the rate of one-half to one pound per 100 pounds of grain mixture. ft is a good prac- tics to supply lodizcd salt to pigs Young rural business of all ages. If sufficient amounts of skim milk. tankage or mixed supple- ments are not fed. the required calcium or lime can be supplied by adding one-half to one per cent of ground limestone to the meal ration of all pigs. Each sow during pregnancy should receive (in addition to iodized salt) a tablespoorrful two or three times weekly of a solu- tion consisting of one ounce of potassium iodide dissolved in a gallon of water for the prevention of hairicssness. flahhincss and general weakness in new born pigs. Nursing pigs housed indoors need an iron supplement to guard against anaemia which causes sev- ere losses during the nursing and weanling stages. Sufficient iron sulphate to cover a dime. or half this amount of reduced iron. plac- ed on the tongue of each young pig within 2 or 3 days of birth and then once weekly until four or five doses have been given is effective in the prevention of anaemia. The feeding of a good pig starter from the three week stage will help greatly in supply- ing nutrients necessary for thrift and growth and since grain feeds contain some iron the danger from anaemia is also greatly reduced. If pigs are housed without dir- ect sunlight, pasture or green feed they are likely to suffer from lack of vitamins. The feed- ing of a teaapoonful of a vitamin feeding oil once weekly to nur- sing plgs. the same amount daily to wcanlings. two teaspoonfuls daily to growing pigs up to 125 pounds. pnegnant. and nursing sows. will prevent many losses and greatly improve the general oars son.

Ont., has just. completed her second yearly pro- duction of over 1200 lbs. fat, thus becoming the first Holstein in the world to complete, on official tests, two records, each above 1200 lbs. fat on three times-a-day milking. In fact she is the first 1-Ioiateln in Canada to twice ex- ceed ths 1200 lb. mark regardless of times milked daily. This cow is named selling Icoyrl Wing and her latest record was made as a nine-year-old when she produced in 3H days on three times-a-day milking, 28.714 lbs. milk contain- ing l21ti lbs. fat, average test 4.23 per cent butter-fat. As a seven- year-old she produced in 305 days on three times-a-day milking, m,505ibs. milk containing 1219 lbs. fat, average test 428 per cent butterfat. These two individual records are the fifth and sixth largest for fat ever made in Canada in the class. According to Mr. Selling, heavy production hasn't hnrmcci "Royal Wing", as she still looks like a four-year-old and when she frosti- ens again this coming September. should be ready to make another outstanding record. One of the unusual things about "Royal wing" is the evcnless of her last two production records. Dur- ing her first i200 lb. lactation. her highest day was 109.5 lbs. while during her second 1200 lactation, her best day was 100 lbs. In the former case, she had 33 days over 100 lbs. production and in the latter. 2'! over 100 lbs. while at the finish of her first 1200 lb. record, she was milking 63 lbs. daily and at the end of her second 1200 lb. lactation. 65 lbs. daily. During her latest record. she had 14 official butterfat tests, ranging from an even 4.0 per cent to 4.8 per cent, for an average of 4.3 per cent. "Wing" is a medium size cow. weighting approximately 1400 lbs. and is a first class individual hav- ing been classified as "Very Good". the second highest . obtainable rating for conformation. During the making of her rcccnt record she was in charge of herzlsman Joe Gorcl, who milked her by hand. She received the same treat- ment as the rest. of the herd but had the luxury of a box stall which is standard practice for heavy producers at Selling Farms. "Royal Wlng" has a 365 day re- cord as n five-year-old on twice- a-day milking of 849 lbs. fat from 20,898 lbs. milk, average test: 4.06 per cent butter fat and n 305 day record as a four year old on twice a. day milking of 14,626 lbs. milk and 575 lbs. fat. average test 3.93 per cent. butterfat.

Aug. 4r- Additional pro-cooling and cold short-sze fac- ilities are essential for apples in New Brunswick if the local crop of fruit is to be kept. in a prlrnc condition after harvest. The experience at Fredericton is that apples kept. in common stor- age during the warm autumn days at. proper temperatures will lose the field heat - and then storing - without immediately removing their quality so rapidly that it is impossible to put. them 0') the market in a prime condition. Refrigerated storage rooms will provide the best. means of holding harvested fruit. The fruit shoulrl be moved from the orchard im- mediately after it is picked and the field heat removed. The apples should then be held in these stor- nges at the correct storage temp- oraturo until marketed. Failing to do this will result in a commodity that will not be able to compete with good fruit. in the commercial market, thereby resulting in lower sales and depressed prices This problem will no doubt. become more acute as competition becomes keener for apples. Insulated storage rooms equip pod with electric inns controlitvt with differential thcrrnostnts are a possibility as an alternative to re- frigerated storage. but these in- stallations do not appear to be as useful as refrigerated storage for removing the field heat from the apples during the warm autumn weather. They do. however seem to hold the fruit in good cotvlltion once the outside temperature reaches the freezing point. Fruit growers in New Brunswick are advised to give this matter very serious consideration and by some means provide adequate pre- cooling and storage facilities Psr their fruit if they wish to com- mand a permanent market at the best prevailing prices.

CIDAI. WAIWIJIG The cedar Waxwing has several has a wide range of territory. It is called the "cherry bird", a name that needs no explanation; it is the "Cedar Bird" because for pre- ference it builds its nest in that species of tree. If. is listed as a com- mon- summer resident in New Brunswick. and it. nests there: in some seasons it even winters than. I have often seen them in this Pro- vince. but the earliest date in my records is July 23. 1016 and the lat- est is Sept. 13. 1004. They were ob- served by Miss Maud Jones, at Pownall as early as May 13, 1933. but I have yet to hear of them as winter visitors. Cedar Waxwings travel in flocks and are said to be socially inclined passing the berries to one another very politely. so the books tell us. At. any time that I have seen them. stripping the rowan tree in from of the house. it was every bird for himself. They are fond of many kinds of fruit, but when the nest- lings are growing they are keen in the pursuit of mosqultos and other insects to feed their brood. "The Waxwing'a crest," writes Frank J. Ashford, "is as expressive as the ears of a horse. One moment it points skyward. and the next in- stant it flattens rind disappears." Most of our crested unall birds keep the crest depressed. Bain wrote of this bird: ”Tho Co- dar Waxwing is a beautiful. cinna- mon colored bird. with conspicuous crest and peculiar verrnlform ap- pendages to its wings. It is" not common here, but. in August. will come in small numbers about the cherry trees, or call, like a. wander- ing spirit of gentleness. in the lonely cedar swamps.
