FOX FARMING ON
 NEARBY ISLANDS
Inian and Lemesurier m Icy Straits Chosen for
 New Industry

Two islands in Icy Straits, Inian and Lemesurier, have been taken up by fox farmers. There are al ready twenty pairs on Inien Island while the owner of Lemesurier, Capt. Ibach, has left for Western Alaska to purchase stock for his ranch. It is said that the two islands are ideal for fox raising and that they have been chosen by experienced fox farmers from Western Alaska in preference to locations farther west. virtually unlimited supply of fish for food, right physical formation and climatic conditions are said to make them perfectly adapted for the purpose
 Lemesurier, the larger of the two islands, is about seven miles long. It contains quite lofty mountains that have been a favorite place for the hunting of deer. Both islands are at the junction of Cross Sound and Icy Straits.

The purchases were of wool, hides, leather, flax, hemp and similar materials. Insurance, generously taken out, served to more than make up loss es from submarine warfare, it was stated The record of Lord lnver- forth's activities is in contrast with results obtained by similar depart ments i'll other allied countries. i Among the purchases were nearly 4,000,000 pounds of American sole leather and S2,000,000 feet of Amer
 ican upper leather.
 Included in the chief items or textile and leather equipment for
 the army and navy, air force and other branches of the public ser
 vice and for the Allies from Aug
 ust 4, 1914. to March 3l, 1919, were: S1S99,626 pairs of shoes; S1.53S.000 yards of cotton drill; 60.917,0 ,000 yards of kahki; 16,259,- : 900 ground sheets; 1,1S6,o00,o0O
