The old style of trapper; with the smoke-tanned trousers, hound's. cary cap, and long barrelled gin, is rapidly becoming superseded "by the firmer's son. The most typleal of the old style trappers yet remaining is Trapper John Smoke, who makes his rendegvous down in Norfolk County. John occa- sionally gets "the big mink," but his vocation Is not so remunerative das in former days. 'There wuz a time," complains Trap- per 8moke, as he puffs on .a pipe about the size of an inkstand. "There wuz a time w'en I k'd set me: traps all along the cricks in quietness and peaceness, but now somebody is sure to steal 'em. T'e farmers' boys ketch all 'the fur on their prop'ty an' there's none enny more to ketch enny way." A great deal of good home fur fis found down in Southern Ontario, near the lakes. A great proportion of. the fur is that of skunk and muskrat. The kittenish little skunk when in good condition, and of a black hue, brings about $2. Poorer grades bring 75 cents or a dollar, There, ars many. skunks to be found in the western pen- insula of Ontario, and there is a great demand for our skunk in Germany and old London. The demand is greater than the supply. The muskrat or musquash is found in generous numbers around the water- ways of the province. Floods last year made trouble in thelr steam-heated apartments, and many rat families were drowned. "Rats" cannot be trapped af- ter the ice comes, but as the freesing up this winter was so late many have been caught down in .the southern counties, With the furriers the skins are known as "Baltic seal." Muskrats are getting up In price. Thousands of these furs are now used in lining gentlemen's and ladies' coats. Somewhat of a novelty In furs, an dll-muskrat coat, was seen on a gentleman in Yonge street Ahe other day, and as a plece of fur art was commendable. Mink flourishes everywhere. The tar is durable, and when properly made up, rivals the Russian sable. The best mink furs come from the vicinity tan- gent in Lake Superior. A god mink skin in the raw brings about Other qualities of mink de- scend in value to about $2. ee Oulside of Chatham, there are places wheid ocoons may be freely "hunted, Raccoons are found in wooded districts and they produce suitable 'fur for handsome and durable : scarfs 'and miiffs.
