Poor Outlook for Trappers.

The outlook is poor this year for
the men in Hancock county who have
picked up some good money in past
years by trapping. And this is not
because of any scarcity of the fur
animals, but because of the values of
the furs. The bottom seems to have
gone entirely out OF the fur market.
The big fur houses are advising
buyers not to buy and trappers not to
trap at present. One big New York
house writes that owing to the very
large quantity of fur in the market,
and to the fur strike which has not
been settled since last May. it advises
trappers and shippers not to trap or
buy until the market is able to abb
sorb the enormous stock on hand.
