Many fox farmers are up
against it but they are spectators
who expected to make a clean
up in a short time. The prices Of
fur is down in the market. 1t is
uncertain for years. Production has
kept the same while the growers
devoted most of their time to stock
reproduction. There are now about
800 islands off the Alaska coast
devoted to foxes. Last year, grow
Grs killed off great number of
culls and dumped the pelts on the
market making the supply inferior.
The fur price dropped but it will
come up when the quality of pelts
improves. Pelts this year from wild
and tame animals are inferior be
cause of the extremely mild win
ter"
Walker pointed out that Alaska
