Raising Dogs for Their Skins.

Dog farming is not unknown in civilized
countries, though the dogs there are bred
for petting and hunting. In the extreme
north of China they are bred for their
skins In Mandchoury the skins are very
beautiful; the hair is long, thick and
silky, and Of "A remarkably fine texture.
This is explained by the climate Of the
Mandchoury, which is exceedingly cold,
and the dogs must Of necessity be protect
ed by thick, heavy fur COnnoisseurs de-
clare that finer skins Of this kind have
never been found. The animals are killed
by strangulation in the winter, because at
that time the hair is longest and thickest,
but none are killed that are not s months
old
The price paid for this fur is ridiculous
" small. a large mantle measuring about
100 inches is sold for $3.50 About eight
skins are needed 20 make such mantle.
The skins must not only be assorted and
matched in color and quality, but the man
tie be made as well, certainly a curious in-
dustry that deals with profits which seem
TO us abnormally small. Itwould certain
" be a novelty in America to see a parlor
rug Of dogskins-for instance, center
piece of big yaller stray dog" surround
ed by patterns shading off in gray, black
and-tan and spitz, the whole finished with
a variegated border of assorted puppies.
