RAISING DOGS
AT FOX FARMS

For some time Reedsburg las had
three fox farms and added to this in.
dustry Great Dane dogs are being
raised for the market. A great ad-
vantage in producing dogs is that they
have no desire to escape through a
small hole beneath the fence and are
more easily handled. It is said that
dogs valued at something like $1,000
have recently been sold. During a
year two filters appear, the average
being ten each time.
To feed the dogs old horses are
secured at the value of their hides,
about $500. After the pelt is re-
moved the animal is served to the
dogs and foxes. Not long ago 81 sill
yer fox skins were sold, the minimum
price being $500 each. Disposing OF
both horse hides and fox peIts makes
quite an industry in skins at Reeds
burg.
