RAISING SKUNKS Is
PROFITABLE INDUSTRY

Boise, Feb. 15.-That there is a
good deal more profit in raising the
ordinary skunk than the ordinary
COW is the declaration of VIM. Jen-
sen of briggs. Idaho, who has be-
come so deeply interested in the plans
IL the Idaho Game Breeders Associa-
tion that he sent a letter giving his
experience with skunks.
While the price for the ordinary
skunk fur is $S to $12 the good
breeding quality runs as high as $3.50
as pair. Mr.. Jensen says he has one
female skunk whose offspring last
year brought him $94. The skunk.
he declares, has the cleanest Of hab-
its and the offensive odor may be
eliminated by simple process Of de-
odorization.
Mr.. Jensen gives this information
tion to the public in the hopes that It
will stimulate further interest upon
the part of farmers and others who
will find their income materially in
creased by fur raising. II is under
stood that Mr.. Jensen has been a ten
ant farmer but his success with the
fur side line seems to indicate that he
will no longer be in that status.
The officers of the Idaho Game
Breeders were deeply interested in
Mr.. Jensen's statements. 1t is the
object of the association to encour-
age the raising of fur bearing ami
mails and to create for a large number
Of people a profitable industry from
what is now an absolute waste.

The short hay crop OF 1919 and re.
sulting high prices, the low feeding
value of the hay that was produced
and the Intense cold weather OF ear
ly winter created problem which
worried the farmers generally and
especially the stockmon II appeared
as though there must be heavy loss
come to some mon and that livestock
generally throughout the state would
suffer because OF the lack OF feed
The prices OF hay were prohibitlya
so the Farm Bureau investigated the
possibility OF securing corn to substi-
tute for the shortage OF hay. A
good reliable Nebraska grain corpor.
alton was communicated with and II
was found that the shipment OF corn
into Bear Lake county was a prac-
tical proposition.
The policy OF the farm bureau In
this matter was TO deliver corn TO all
members OF the organization at alb.
soluto cost. This policy has boen car
ried out strictly not q cent has been
made by the bureau In handling five
carloads. This accounts for tho big
difference in the price charged by
the bureau and local dealers. No
dealer could possibly afford to han
die corn as cheaply for the farmers
as the farm bureau has done.
The five carloads unloaded to the
farmers by the bureau amounted TO
$4,000 pounds. Estimating that
one ton OF corn is equivalent TO four
tons OF hay in feeding value. this
represents feeding value equivalent
to $40 tons OF hay.
Conservatively estimating that tho
