MINK SEASON GOOD.

Several hundred dollars worth of
mink hides have been bought by local
traders from trappers during the past
winter. These little fur bearing ami
mails were plentifully found in many
parts of the county. Traps were
set near the brick yards on the west
side, and along the banks of the
river and streams. While the mink
is a small animal, his hide is worth
from 50 to S..
Musk rats have also been trapped
and killed for several months. Their
pelts are only worth 20 cents a
piece, but many Of these water ami
mails have been killed on account of
being considered a nuisance, as they
attack the roots of trees and knaw
through the wooden piles which
serve as supports for several of the
boat houses along the river.
