IN FOXES.
Alberta Firm has Sold $4,000 Worth
for Breeding Purposes.
(Kansas City Starr


(Kansas City Starr
Two hundred and nineteen live
foxes. ranging from black silver to
red crosses, valued at $4,000. have
been shipped from Edmonton to points
in the provinces Of Nova Scotia, Prince
Edward Island, New York, and Penn
sylvania since the opening Of the
season.
The most valuable consignment,
which went forward yesterday. con
sisted Of ten pure black puppies. for
which Kane Bros. Of Brooklyn, n. Y,
paid $4,000. The animals were sent
to Ogden. Pa, for propagation pur-
poses.
Frederic M. Lee, president Of the
Western Raw Fur company, who re-
Gently shipped "a foxes, valued at
100000. to breeders in Prince Edward
Island, announces that he will not dis
pose of any more animals to eastern
a fox farm at Tees. Alta. where 40
foxes are o domiciled. He said:
"Advices from eastern Canada are
that prices Of live foxes have de-
creased from rs to 80 per cent in the
last 80 days. This slump is accounted
for by large shipments through Ed
monitor from all over the northern
country, between the Yukon and the
province Of Saskatchewan. There
will be a reaction next fall. when
prices will be higher than they have
been during the last few months.
Fur trappers in the north ~are'reap.
ing a veritable harvest now, as the
foxes are easily obtained by digging
the pups out Of the holes before they
have left their nests. After this month
the young foxes will leave their dams
and can only be caught singly in
traps. This means fewer animals and
higher prices"

not anything very great this season.

not regard the slump as permanent.

Athletics as a substitute for Collins

less fortunate in picking up brilliant
players in case of injury than they
have been in obtaining 'outielders who

one team Ut horses and one of
mules, drawing Jbe martial band
OF which I was snare drumm n.

first house which was made of
sod, the watts being very thick.
ln the spring of 1873 water vas
very high, all creeks being over
banks. AS this was the year
that our family came to the Ter
ritory OF Dakota, they arrived at
Vermillion with the household
goods in time OF this nigh water
l drove all one day on my way
to Vermillion and stayed at
home the first night. The next
day / met with little better
success and stayed half way at
Mr.. Harrington's, and arriving
at Vermillion loaded the goods.
1t took four horses to draw it
Il through the mud and water.
Mother and sister followed in
the single buggy (the first single
buggy owned in Turner County,
Took two days to get to Swan
Lake. While setting in w. W..

sight which she never forgot,
which was that one of Aurner's
white mules backed up into the
window OF the sod hotel which
being of thick wall made a good
shed. Turkey creek being over
it's banks, we could not tell
where the stream was and we're
obliged to stay until it went
down SO we could cross. The
next day being Sunday and as
they were to; have church and it
being known that we had an or

sic. Which we did and it was
