B y L e n I'le ia The annual fur take In the United States Is decreasing while the popu lation of wild fur animals are In creasing, according to findings of tiie federal fish and wildlife serv ice. In a report of these findings, Trunk G. Ashbrook said: "Warehouses are bulging with ruccoon, opossum, skunk, fox and coyote furs," Ashbrook says in his Introduction. “These are the ‘un wanted furs’—according to the trade designation. A considerable number of raw furs are only worth 25 cents or less per pelt on the murket, and In some states local raw fur receiving houses are not buying certain species of long haired furs. "Some Ideas advanced to build up the m arket tor these long haired furs Include shearing, clip ping and dyeing to make a 'new and exotic’ product. Already styl ists have shown crimson and green fur c o a t s . Experiments In the production of fancy leathers from unwanted skins also continue apace. Suede shoes, gloves, ’cham ois’, billfolds and unique bookbind ings are only a few of the products manufacturers hope to make out of such skins as raccoon, opossum and coyote.” Some operators of warehouses that are full of cheap raccoon skins have recently expressed the hope that "D an'l Boone” caps of rac coon fur—with tails flying out be hind—would become a style hit again with teenagers, skiers and others, says Ashbrook. A revival of the old "Joe College” raccoon skin coats, though. Is not looked for. The labor Involved In making a coat Is expensive.

I t ’s wonderful, it keeps him regular!” Thyra Nelson, Star Route 1, Box 651, U n io n , By MELLORS BOUFORD It Takes Planning tach With Your Own City SUNNYSIDE A A A Thousands of children and even adults In our larger cities have never known the thrill of a moun tain stream cascading Its white i waters over the polished rocks. : They have never pitched a tent in ¡prim itive surroundings where It ' seems no white man has ever stood , before. They have never been ! chilled by the piercing cry of the i wolf, or lulled to sleep by the yap ping cry of the coyotes. It has never been their lot to be wrapped In the solitude of towering mountains In the silence "you almost can hear.” But If they have thought of it, in their hearts I dreamed of It, and have yearned for it with a longing that only reallza- i tion can dispel, It Is up to the men and women of this and succeeding generations to so protect these things that they will always be 1 held In trust for those who come behind us. Some day, If not they, at least their children’s children may be hold and enjoy these raptures of nature but only If the areas are I properly conserved. How their dream through the many years j would be shattered If Its realiza- ! tion found only a dustbowl, a for- | est of stumps, dry creekbeds. and the bones of wild animals bleach- Ing In the sun. It is, therefore, of the utmost lm- portance that the people employ good wardens, skilled foremen, and faithful caretakers. They must be trained In business and science and tutored by men of practical exper- lcncc for the great task that Is theirs. They must be men and wom en who love the work and have i the courage to take a firm stand against transgressors.

[ , i ; Hook In W ater One of the most obvious truths In angling is that you "can't catch I fish unless your hook Is In the | water.” However, too many fish ermen spend half their time rush ing madly from pool to pool and for the most part have only exer- | else for their pains. This doesn’t mean, either, that the angler should sit In one spot, frowning worms or dunking flies for hours on end. The logical tech nique Is to cover the waters of a likely-looking pool as thoroughly as possible, then move on to the next. Remember, too, that when you’re fishing for trout that are visible to you, you are also visible to them. Be sure your bait Is in position where one or more of such fish can see It. Then leave It long enough for the fish to make up his mind whether or not he wants it. Never go any closer than neces sary to present the bait; stay out of range of the fish’ s vision as much as possible and remain mo tionless. Such tactics often enable one person to catch fish in a pool where other fishermen aren’t do ing so well.

D oan ’ s P ills Use Air Mattress The air mattress you use in vour sleeping bag can be utilized when traveling the waterways about camp. Leave it Inflated and place in the bottom of your boat. Tie your tackle and duffle to It. In case of a splash or a blow, it will keep these off the bottom of the boat and out of the water, should you ■lip a little. In case of an upaet it will serve as a life preserver. When time comes for sleep again, your mattress Is still Inflated. * y e s , pop , t h i s AS g o o d e x p e r ie n c e p o r M E .
