 In the agricultural world fashion has produced transformations no less serious, some of them unfortunate.
 In the animal world certain species of fur animals are on the verge of extinc- tion, and there should be either attempts at domestication, as in the case of the blue fox and the opossum, or hunting regulations by the creation of open dis. tricts with complete prohibition during a certain period.
 "To follow the fashion" becomes not only pastime, but even duty; intel lects are made frivolous thereby; those who pride themselves in appearing ele- gant are obliged to make the clothing of themselves veritable occupation and a study, which assuredly does not tend to elevate the mind, nor does it render them capable of great things"
 To this moral and social evil an eco homie difficulty is also added Fashion is waste; "it has the privilege of cast ing things aside before they have lost their freshness it multiplies consump- tion and condemns that which is still good, comfortable and pretty for some thing that is no better Besides, it robS State of that which 1t consumes and that which 1t does not consume" M.
