1873 Houses
in Audrain
in 1850

An interesting picture Of the con-
ditions existing in Audrain County
in 1850 is given in an article. which
appeared recently in the Centralia
Freside guard. Audrain at this
time was a frontier county with a
total population of 1906 or 1850 less
than the slave population of Boone
County. AT this time there were 49S
houses in the county which was only
o~ne-feurth as many as in Boone
County.
The records show that only sixty
students in the county were attend
ing the higher colleges and that $3.50
was spent On them. These figures
aprear absurdly small until one re!
members that at that time only about
three-fourths of the hundred counties
in the state had any students in. high
er institutions Of learning and few
spent more on them.
There were AT farms in the coun-
ty, which had a total acreage of
31,731 improved and 52,7e7 wild
land. The average value of the land
was 50. Land in Boone, County at
this time was bringing an average
Of $3.50. ~ 4g4 y
The county at this time had no
towns of any Importance and Boone
County had only one, Columbia,
which at time had a population of
1888.

! Mr.. Smith is planning to make a
trip to Canada when ne again stocks
his farm with foxes. Although We
think of a large part " that countrys
wealth being in wheat and other agri-
cultural products, Mr.. smith says the
amount Of wealth represented by the
fox farms is surprising. It is not
uncommon for one person to own
animals worth from $50,0JU 10 $780,
900. This property is not taxed by
the government which makes the bus
mess very profitable.
Four years ago Mr.. Smith shipped
a car load of hogs to the St. Louis
market. At that time hogs were
high and he received $3.50 a hun
dred for the lot, of sixty-four head.
A short time afterwsrd he sent the
pelts of ifty-two foxes to st. Louis
and received more for them than for
the entire load of hogs, which had
cost him much more to raise than the
foxes.
Silver foxes r snow white when
they are born and afterward are a
dark gray. The black, red and gray
foxes are much the same shade when
they are born.
The animals in captivity are sell
dom dangerous but are vigilant in
caring for their young and will fight
instantly if they are molested.
Mr.. Smith is the only man in Aud
rain County who has engaged in this
industry.

AUDRAIN,S FOX FARM

The raising of foxes in Missouri is
a profitable business according to
Henry Smith,. who lives on a farm
near Mexico. Mr.. Smith has raised
foxes for six years and has made
money every year with the exception
of the present one. This year Mr..
Smith just broke even owing to the
fact that a number Of the animals
died with distemper and when others
became sick he killed them and sold
their pelts. But even then the skin
of one of the animals sold for $40.
He will pillow and cultivate the ground
used for the corrals of the foxes this
season and will start raising the
animals again next year.
In October 1916, Mr.. Smith went to
Canada and bought a pair of silver
foxes for which he paid $1,000. The
price is lower now and it is possible
to buy a pair of these animals for as
low as $1,000. In 1919 he raised
sixty-four foxes and made a large
profit. The largest price ever re-
ceived by Mr.. Smith for a single skin
was $3.50 for a mixed red and black
fox.
The breeds of foxes raised by Mr..
Smith are gray, silver, red and black.
They are very delicate and require
careful handling for several months
and then become very strong. Mr..
Smith said that the work is very in
teresting as the animals are intelli-
gent. particularly the silver foxes.
