HINTS TO TRAPPERS.
."Rufe" Young Says Skins Will Prime
Late This Fall.

r. Fl. Young of South Hancock,
Better known as t'Rufe," has been
buying skins and furs for seventy
two years. and is still on deck for
the 1924-25 season. Mr.. Young, be
it known, is now in his ninety-frst
year, but no one would suspect it to
look at him.
'Rufe" was in Ellsworth last
week, and talking about the outlook
for the coming fur season. He says
that because of the warm weather
during October, skins will not prime
as early as usual this fall by at
pers not to get into the game too
early.
AS to the market outlook, he says
mink and coon will be in good de-
mand, but red fox and muskrat will
probably be lower than last year.
Mr. Young says many trappers lose
good money by improper handling of
skins They put out good line of
traps, get a good pelt, and then dam
age 1t several uOlldIS ny llupIopel
handling or drying.
Animals should be skinned as soon
as possible after being killed. If al
lowed to remain on too long, they be-
come tainted, and this means that the
hair will pull. After being dressed
these pelts often come out worthless.
After skin is taken off, all fat and
meat should be carefully removed,
skin stretched, and hung in cool,
dry place, away from sun or artificial
heat, and where mice cannot get
at it.
The tails of fox, coon and skunk
should be split on the under side, to
the tip. Otter, mink and muskrat
should be stretched flesh side out,
and not turned. Fox, lynx and wild
cat should be stretched flesh side out,
and after dry, turned fur side out
Salt is all right for COW hides, but
