the texture of the fur proves to be as good as that of the eastern animal, there is no reason why trappers should not secure g. good income by capturing these animals, as the area they inhabit is extensive. In many localities an acre of ground supports as many as a hundred individuals. If this little animal can be profitably trapped for it's fur the problem of freeing agricultural areas from 1t will practica1Iy be solved. ss,.s
 Investigations into the economic value of North American slunks re- suited in the publication of a Farmers Bulletin on the subject. It has been found that this animal is one of the most useful of native mammals and a most efficient help to the farmer and the orchardist in their warfare against insect and rodent pests.
