frlnco edward island is the stronghold of foxfarming foxranchos now exist in every province of can ada and ot late years have been es tablished in tho states wherever tho ckmato is suitable in the last few years at least five hundred ranchers have taken up what la called tho new star of farming they have their own journal their own association at minneapolis and hold championship shows from america furfarming has spread to japan and lately to france the scottish highlands dartmoor and a dozen other places in this coun- tdy our pioneers believe that fur- farming will become an important in dustry for they have proved that our climate will suit the foxes even bet ter than their own the pelts the fur of tie silver fox is long and silky with a beautiful silvery sheen and js always likely to be a favorite or the trimming of coats an aver age pelt has value of about sfty pounds but an exceptional one may fetch pretty well ten times the price a record was set up in london some fsw years ago when a single pelt was old for 514 it is an expensive buslnsse to stock s ranch with silver foxes of pedigree strain pedigree indicating that they hare been pure bred for six genera tions a pedigree pair of the prince edward island strain is worth three hundred pounds visiting a ranch on dartmoor the writer found a score ot foxes in their roomy runs in a sheltered wood sup plied with comfortable houses tile silver cubs pups the farmers calls them see light in april and are fullgrown by late autumn by the end of their first year they sport coats of ideal quality for the furrier when the fatal day of pelting arrives the end comes mercifully by way of chloroform apart from the high talus of the pelts the farmer at present is snre of a good profit from selling his live stock ollmate suitable an important point about the fur of this fox is that it defies the faker the hairs are black below silver in the middle and black at the tip the faker may stick white hairs on to the fur of a red fox which has been dyed but cannot imitate the genuine silvery sheen in this climate the fox has proved remarkably hardy it is a good par ent and it has been found that it will go on producing cubs for a dozen years i tho cost of keeping a pair works out at about eight pounds a year they are fed on rabbit meat oereals biscuit and milk a return of capital is not long de layed after the founding of a ranch since tho pups may bo pelted in their first year owing to the cost of buying or hiring suitable land putting up wlro and houses and buying stock ranches are often owned by syndicates to found a ranch with twenty fine pairs ot silver foxes demands a capital of something like ten thousand pounds ware snipers i tsore of bering sea toi the first three days the good weather

been noticed that when food is dropped into an aquarium where there is a hagflsh the fish instantly swims towards it- although blind it has rudimentary eye epots they aro not however in the lesst sensitive to light the hagflsh wblch is purplishblue in color varies in size from about 18 inches to 2 feet and in general ap pearance it tesembles an eel another peculiarity is that it has three
