killed by sharp blow, across the back
of the head. Trappers usually carry
a short club for this purpose.
Muskrat skins intended for the mar
ket should be "cased," not opened
along the belly. In skinning, trap
pers begin at the heel and slit up the
middle of the hind leg to the tail,
around 1t, and then down the other
leg to the heel In the same way. No
other cuts In the skin are needed.
though many trappers pass the knife
around the feet, where the long fur
ends. The skin is then turned back
over the body, leaving the fur side
inward. The skin peels off easily to
the front feet. The trapper cuts
closely around nose, ears and lips, so
as not to tear the skin. II bits OF
flesh adhere to the skin about the
head, they may be scraped off, but
this Is usually left for the fur dresser.
The skin, inside out, is stretched over
thin board or a single of the prop
err shape, and a tack or two is insert
ed to keep it in position until dry.
Skins should be dried in the open
air-not before fire or in the sun

they do a tremendous amount of in
jury to the crops, eating corn when
It is in the roasting ear and destroy
ing vegetables such as beets, turnips
and carrots.
In the south the muskrat Is a great
enemy of the rice planter AS 1t bur
rows into the embankment, it allows
the water to flood the land. 1t also
causes great damage to irrigation dis
tricts. ice ponds and river levees.
North American Indians eat the
muskrat, but Its strong flavor makes
1t unpalatable for people Of more re-
fined taste,
Muskrats are easily trapped They
take any suitable bait readily. The
trap should be set under water so
the animal will quickly drown, as they
tear foot-loose and escape from the
trap.
An ordinary steel trap No 1 is best.

where water is always at hand. 1t Is
strong swimmer and is chiefly &C
tive at night. While they may occa-
sionally be seen building their houses
in the daytime, most of the work is
done after nightfall.
Their houses are made of grasses,
rushes and roots, with the bottom
resting on the bottom of the pond and
the dome rising two or three feet
above the water.
From the part Of the structure
above the water an interior chamber
is dug out, from which two or three
passages lead downward through the
mass to the water, reaching 1t at
points below the frost line. If the
water is shallow the muskrat digs a
channel to deeper parts of the pond.
The young are seldom born in the
houses, which are used chiefly to store
food and for shelter In the winter
When banks of streams or ponds
are high enough for the purpose the
muskrats burrow into them. The en-
trance to the tunnel Is almost always
under water, and the approach is by
channels deep enough to prevent the
ice from closing the passage.
1t is very difficult to locate musk
rat channel, for this reason. Some
times the tunnels extend upward into
the bank above the level OF the wa
ter, and extend back from ten to fifty
feet into the bank, and terminate In
large chamber.
Usually two tunnels lead from the
nest to the water, and often tunnel
has two branches or outlets.
Although the animals do not hiber-
nate, and make little provision for
winter food, they become very active
as winter comes on, building new
houses, adding to the old ones and
deepening channels.
There is much difference of opinion
as to the number of young raised by
each female, Some observers say the
muskrat has three filters In a season
and from three to seven In a litter
The northern Indians, who were close
observers, say that two litters are
born the first year and three the sue
ceeding seasons.
The muskrat lives mostly on roots
and herbs, and sometimes will eat ami

inches deep, fasten the chain to a
stake or pole, reaching to deep wa
ter. The pole, upon which the ring
of the chain is to slide, should have
a fork at the outer end to prevent 1t
from slipping off. The other end
should be stuck firmly into the bank.
Fasten the bait to stick set in mud
so that 1t Is about a foot above the
pan of the trap, The animal, In reach
ing for the bait, sets the hind foot
upon the pan and is caught securely.
An open barrel sunk near the bank
Of the stream is said to be an effective
trap, although floating barrel is
more generally used. A hole is sawed
In the side and a strong cleat is
nailed across each end. upon which
boards, longer than the barrel, are
nailed Enough water is placed in
the barrel to make float with these
platforms level with the surface. Ap-
pies or carrots are placed In the bar
rel for bait.
Trappers In Ohio, Illinois and some
other middle states are reported to
be able to earn from $500 to 5000 dur
ing the season from January first to
about the middle of March.
The owner of a 1,300-acre tract OF
marsh land, with the aid of his son,
secured over 5000 muskrats in one
season, which were sold for $4,000.
The skins are sorted into black and
brown before being shipped to mar
ket.
Baltimore is a good market and
pays from 35 cents for brown to 45
cents for black. st. Louis Is also a
large market, and prices are general
ly little higher there.
Muskrats taken for the fur should
be trapped, not shot or speared. If
taken alive in trap they should be
