SLUMP IN PRICE OF FURS
of Animals, but on Breeding Pos
sibilities-Choice of Location
is of Prime Importance.

Washington, D. C.-Those thinking
OF engaging in fox farming as a
source Of profit should consider care
fully the cautions and the data as to
the expense OF equipping a farm, and
would do we'll to weigh carefully the
conservative statement as to the
profits from this industry, which are
included IN United States department
OF agriculture bulletin No. 30l, The
Domestication of the Silver Fox"
The bulletin points out that the
prices of furs and of breeding animals
have fallen considerably since July,
1914, and states that the prices run
ming into thousands of dollars former
ly paid for live silver foxes were based
not on the fur value of the animals
but on their possibilities as breeding
animals, in an industry in which there
was great speculative excitement On
this general point the author says:
The business of fox breeding will be
on much more stable basis than
at present when the value of breed
ing animals bears an approximate re-
lation to the value Of their pelts in
the open market. The profits in sill
yer fox farming prior to 1910 were
realized mainly from the sale of pelts;
since then they have been derived
almost entirely from the sale of
live foxes for breeding purposes.
There has been recent sharp decline
in the prices of breeding stock
Location Is important.
The choice of location of fox farm
is of prime Importance. The best furs
come from cool, moderately humid re.
gions. If a locality furnishes native furs
of high grade, that locality is favorable
to the domestication Of fur bearers.
The climate of the middle and south
ern states is not we'll suited to this
industry, as shown by the medium or
low prices commanded by furs from
these areas. The ratio of expense to
income must be considered with care.
One cannot pay the exorbitant prices
animals for stocking purposes some
times bring and expect to raise fur
at a profit. Neither can one expect
to raise furs Of fine quality from
inferior stock. But given normal
market for breeding stock and pelts.

change of persons in charge, like the
presence of absolute strangers, has a
detrimental effect IN them.
Thrive on Varied Diet.
Foxes require some special atten-
ton, certain skill n handling, and
great care in feeding. They thrive
on varied diet, including meat,
fish, mush, milk, bread and table
scraps, but they are easily injured.
especially when young, by improper
food. 1t costs from S. to $l5 year
to feed foxes, depending on whether
there are cows and whether grain and
vegetables are raised on the farm.

DEAD MANS Double
FRIGHTENS WAITER
James Murphy Thought
Other James Murphy Was
James Murphy, Rail
Victim
STRANGE MIX-UP OVER
NAMES AND IDENTITY

For several years James Murphy,
waiter in restaurant at Thirty-sec-
Ond and Market streets, Philadelphia,
has served regularly James Murphy,
an engineer on the Pennsylvania Rail-
road. who formerly lived in this city
and later in Philadelphia. Last Tues
day Engineer Murphy was killed In
a wreck at Perryville. Md. An account
of the accident together with Muir
phys picture appeared in the newspa-
pers and since that time his special
waiter and other employees of the
restaurant have been mourning the
death of their friend of customer.
Last night at the hour Murphy usual
ly appeared for his meal a man enter
ed the restaurant and took the seat
Murphy generally occupied. When
Waiter Murphy spied him the armful
of dishes he carried went clattering
TO the floor and he dashed for the
kitchen in fright for he thought that
his old friend had come to life. The
manager of the restaurant also re-
cognized the man as Murphy. who was
reported dead He -lso was terrified.
but finally summoned sufficient
courage TO approach the customer who
was wondering at the commotion he
had caused.
Then it was revealed that the
stranger was a double OF the dead man
and that, by an almost unbelievable
coincidence, his name also is James
Murphy. Stranger still he also is an
engineer on the Pennsylvania Rail-
road and was acquainted with the
James Murphy who was killed.
