TESTIMONY OF EXPERIENCE.

From The Sunday Star
Is the testimony Of experience
worth anything in this matter OF
ten hour law for women? OF course
IL is. Then listen to this. Mr.. Louis
Bamberger, who is the head of large
department store of Newark. \. j.,
writes to the ten hour committee here
as follows: The new law which IS
now in force in this State, limiting
the hours of women. has not aifectei
our business i'm the least, and we are
now doing more business than before
the law was enacted. We have suf-
fered no loss by the change, and as
our employees have gained. we have no
fault to find with the new condition
Messrs. Joel Gutman G Company. OF
Baltimore. also write to the commit

U. S. TO LEASE ISLANDS
FOR BREEDING OF FOXES
Live Stock for Rearing Purposes
Also to Be Furnished Under
Bids, From Alaska.

Announcement has been made by the
Secretary OF Commerce of his intention
to lease twelve islands on the coast of
Alaska TO persons who wish to engage in
the business of rearing foxes The Is
lands will be leased for a period of five
years to the highest responsible bidders.
Recently the rearing of foxes for their
furs has attracted a great deal of atten-
ton. Public interest has been aroused by
the remarkable results achieved in this
industry in the eastern part OF Canada.
The prices reported to have been paid
for silver foxes. black foxes and other
valuable varieties are almost fabulous.
The demand for foxes by breeders has
been so greatly in excess of the supply
that live foxes of the desired varieties
bring many times the amount which
could be obtained for their pelts.
While the breeding of foxes in Alaska
has attracted but little public attention
the business has been going on for a
number of years. and the requests made
to the Department of Commerce for per-
mits TO take wild stock for the purposes
OF demonstration have been steadily in
crea sing. On the PribilOf Islands the
practice Of taking the arctic blue fox has
been pursued for many years In l9l2
the sale I'm London OF the 391 blue and
white fox skins taken on those islands
during the winter OF 191O-11 Melted the
United States government $15,O965S. The
London sale I'm 1913 of the 4l3 skins
taken in the winter of 1911-12 Melted the
government $50, 505.17. At this sale one
lot OF IS skins was sold for $3.50. or
more than SI31 per skin. 1t is thus seen
that the blue foxes in the government
herds on the Pribilof Islands produce eX-
ceptionally fine pelts and are therefore
very desirable breeding stock. The Sec
rotary of Commerce will undertake to
furnish under competitive bids, live blue
foxes from the Pribilof Islands to those
who desire choice breeding stock.
