Fur Prices are Higher
and Winter Is Coming
General Advance of about rs Per Cent on All
Kinds of Skins Which are Used in
the Making of Garments.

Should milady decide to purchase new
furs in which to swath her dainty self
this winter. she would do well to fare
forth instanter to the marts of F. G. and
various other streets where the dealers
in skins hold forth.
For furs. with many others of the ac-
cessories. are on the rise. and may con-
tInue. This year brings a general ad-
vance of about IS per cent over last year.
This percentage is figured on all the
skins used in modern modes, and, in
some instances. furs have gone 500 per
cent higher. This Is of particular inter-
est to Washington and Washingtonians
because Of the fact that the country
contiguous to the city is one OF the
greatest fur-producing sections of the
United States.
The fur industry has undergone a
marked change in the last ten or fifteen
years A decade ago 1t was only the rich
every feminine being. from the first lady
in the land. to the humble housemaid,
clamors for them.
Nowadays skins are used by the fur
riers which ten or fifteen years ago went
only to the tannery to be made up as
straps and belts and shoes Pony skins
from Siberia are now widely used. and
even the humble calf and horse contrib
ute to the fur dealers stock after their
spirits have gone to the happy browsing
grounds. Their skins are dyed and sold
as pony skin.
The most startling advance IL noted in
the price Of chinchilla, which has gone
up 800 per cent through the prohibition
of the South American governments on
the killing of the animals. The fur is
now almost unprocurable- A like meas
ure has been taken against the killing of
Alaskan seal, and for the coat that mad
anne could have had last year for about
$500 she must now pay $500 or more. Some
