TRAPPERS MAKE
PROFIT STILL IN
PARTS OF STATE
Prices This Year Lower
However, Owing to Freight
Conditions.

Canaan, Dec. 9.-Hiram F. Beebe
has made shipment Of something
more than. 5000 skins of fur-bearing
animals, at an approximate value OF
over $4,000, from his storehouse here
to furriers in various cities. This
shipment included 200 skins of the red
fox, 100 gray fox, 1000 skunk, 1000
muskrat, 800 coon, 70 mink. IL wild
cat, two otter, 20 American ermine, or
white weasel.
These skins represented the first
shipment for the present winter sea-
son and all were received at Mr..
Beebe's in the last three weeks, COM
ing from various parts of Connect
cut, Massachusetts,, Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, New York, and
British Columbia
The prices this year average
somewhat lower than in prtvious
years, due not so mach to a growing
scarcity Of fur-bearing game-except
in very few cases-as to the uncer-
tainty Of transportation facilities and
the possibility Of damage and deteri-
grafton in transit delays. Furriers'
prices at this season for the variety
Of skins mentioned average about as
follows: Red fox 81 to So; gray fox
so cents to 81; skunk so cents to
$3.50; muskrat 40 cents, coon $3.50;
mink 81; wildcat so cents to 81; OF
ter $12 to SIS; ernine Is to Is cents.
Mr.. Beebe, who has been in the
business for the last twenty years,
generally makes about four shipments
Of furs during the winter. aggre-
eating in the neighborhood Of &c.,
900 In value He is perhaps the
largest Independent buyer Of skins
not only In Connecticut but in four
other states. and supplies the most
prominent furriers in New York and
the large cities Of New England. He
has relations with the professional
trappers in the game sections of the
states mentioned. and traverses the
territor1 at regular intervals, collect
ing the pelts.
Trapping for fur is still profita-
BILE vocation in Connecticut, and
foxes especially seem to be as plenti-
full as ever, as well as muskrats,
'coons and skunks. In fact, Con-
necticut supplies it's full proportion
Of the pelts brought to Mr.. Beebe's
storehouse.

er Cover With Straw.

One of the greatest mistakes when
shipping trees is that Of allowing the
roots to become exposed to sun and
wind. 1t is absolutely necessary to
keep the roots wet from the time the
trees are received from the nursery
until they are planted. All roots that
are injured in digging should be cut
with q keen knife on the underside
SO that the roots will grow straight
down.
II the trees are not ready to
plant. the roots may be perfected BY
"heeling them in" By this is meant
to set the tree In a trench and cover
the roots with loose earth. II the
weather Is very windy and dry throw
