At current prices of these furs they will be valued at about 8 3,0oO. .000.

THE EXODUS FROM THE FARM

Minneapolis Journal-A recent sur
vey Of certain district showed that
out of a total of 2,O39 pupils enrolled
in twenty-four schools, 1929 have lived
on farms. Of these only 521 show any
desire to return to the farm.
The reasons given are significant.
Among the indictments that often re.
cur are: No conveniences; no ready
money; work is too hard; farm life
offers no attractions; too isolated ;
cannot live as comfortably as in town.
These indictments have less founda-
tion today than ever before. Farming
is now seen to be the fundamental
occupation and it is becoming profes-
sionalized as never before. Good roads,
rural delivery, telephones and auto
mobiles are removing the objection. and
modern. convenient homes are being
built
