Silver fox farming In several states, among them Oregon, In the oplnon o Secretary Wilson of the depart ment of agriculture, is one of the coming Industry of the country, and In a bulletin Just issued by his de partment he strongly recommends that the subject be given close atten tion. "As civilization encroaches upon the breeding grounds of wild animals the mpply of fur steadily diminishes and the price accordingly increases," this bulletin says. "If furs as articles of tue and adornment ore not soon to disappear from general use methods must be devised for raising fur-bearing animals In confinement. This subject is being Investigated by the biological survey." "The silver black fox la one of the highest priced of fur-bearers, and hence offers a tempting field for ex periment. The business of raising this animal is believed to promise fair if not large returns for skill, experi ence and the investment of moderate capital." The name "silver fox " as com moly used by furriers, includes the dirk phases of the ordinary re d fox. variously called silver, silver gray or black. This animal is the common fox (vulpes fulvus) of northern North American, the crafty Reynard of tho books, closely allied to the European fcx. It should not be confused with the gray fox of the southern part of the United States, a very different animal, the fur of which has com paratively little value. Thus far the breeding of silver foxes has been carried on chiefly in Maine and In the Canadian maritime provinces. The natural habitat of the red, cross and silver foxes includes the greater part of northern North America, from the central United States northward to and Including the border of the treeless tundra. The records show that the best lo calities for raising with profit the gray fox exist north of the southern boundary of the Canadian zone. This boundary crosses the states of Maine, w Hampshire, Vermont Michigan. Wisconsin, Minnesota and North Da kota, anj extends southward along the mountains of New York. Penn sylvania, West Virginia and in all of the states of the Rocky mountains and westward. South of this line, in the transition zone, foxes having a fair quality of fur may be raised, but the best are obtained only in the Canadian and more northern zones.

In order to keep the home neat and pretty, the children well dressed and tidy, women overdo. A female weakness or displacement is often brought on and they suffer in silence, drifting along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have help to overcome the paias and aches which daily make life a burden. It is to these faithful women that LYDIA E.PINKHA17TS VEGETABLE COMPOUND comes as a loon and a blessing, as it did to Mrs. V. Ellsworth, of Mayville, N. Y., and to Jirs. W. P. Boyd, of Ik-aver Falls, Pa., who say: "I was not able to do my own work, owing to the female trouble from which I suffered.

For thirty years Lydia V..

Address, Lynn, Mass. siring to experiment In fox raising should secure from two to five acres of ground and Inclose It In ordinary wire fencing. Ordinary barrels makd excellent breeding places. Wild foxes cat a great variety of food, includ ing mice, rabbits, birds and Insects, such as grasshoppers, crickets and beetles, and for this reason are to a large extent Inexpensive. They breed only once a year, and the mating or rutting seiison Includes the months of February and March. The young are born generally In April and May, and the average In a litter may be said to be five. Tho expense of raising foxes Is comparatively small. After building yards and securing stock, running ex penses are light. Without making ex tensive estimates of the profits of a well-established fox farm, it may be said that every silver fox raised Is likely to raise a pelt having a mar ket value of over 1100.
