That Minnesota will, within a few
wears. be placed at the head of the
States in the production of raw furs,
and VIII supply the large percentage
of pelts demanded by the manufac-
lures OF expensive fur garments. is
the opinion of Chas. w. Henke, for
mer Assistant Game and Fish Com
missioner of Minnesota. Mr.. Henke
recently resigned his position to be-
come vice president of the Ten Thous-
and Lakes Fur Farms Corporation
IN charge of the Brainard office of
that company. Mr.. Henke has had
occasion, while Assistant Commission
4er, to study the new industry close
ly and to become informed of its
possibilities. Hundreds of small
farms have been established and the
State Department officials are kept
busy answering the inquiries regard
ing the requirements necessary to be
fulfilled before obtaining the neces-
sary Fur Breeders Permit.
The conversion Of thousands of
acres of muskat marshes and land
heretofore considered worthless in
Minnesota is going on rapidly and
1owlands in many farms nave sudden
ly become an asset instead of an eye
sore to the farmer who began bust
ness in the northern part of the state.
The lowly muskrat has been kicked
around underfoot and used as a
source of income for boy trappers
during the winter until recently when
1T was found that the production of
the pelt on a large scale could be
made the source of huge profits on
account of the certain reproduction of
the animal under close supervision
and protection in its wild and native
state. Instead Of selling the pelts
at from five to twenty-five cents,
which was the case a few years ago,
"A nice prime skin now brings from
$3.50 to $3.25 each.
The ranch control of muskrats by
well organized concerns has been
brought about by the fact that the
outlaw trapper would easily deplete
The species very quickly and make
absolute extenction a possibility if
ne was allowed full sway. He has
been encouraged by the present high
price of raw furs. The state protec-
tive forces and conservation laws are
absolutely inadequate to cope with
The situation. There are some won
derful examples Of the results obtain
ed by volume production on large
areas of land controlled, fenced, and
developed by we'll organized concerns
in some of the eastern states as cit
ed by the figures published by the
Bureau of Biological Survey which
estimates an increase of thirty-three
rats per female during the breeding
season. The western states such as
Minnesota are much more suited to
the development Of such farms and
have awakened TO the possibilities of
the new industry. A few moments
figuring with a lead pencil to cover
one breeding season to another will
disclose some astonishing results.
Mr.. Henke states. however, that for
safety's sake a basis of much less
than government figures should be
used and the Ten Thousand Lakes
Fur Farms Corporation has selected
an increase of ten to fifteen as posi-
tive average Of increase per female
per season.

What Can We Do For Him

Time after time the American movie Midas has
trunded his way to the American embassy in Paris.
Four times in one day, fondling his glorious
check book he has offered Capt. Charles Lindbergh
that award OF awards, that shining certifcaton Of
virtue and valor-a home in Hollywood
Even like Chaplin the lad have closeup
Instructed by megaphone, he can smirk and
smile and register heroism.
He can clasp saccharinefaced beauties to his
manly young breast, and, while the organs play all
stops open, sail away through Kleiglighted skies to
the land of forever afterward
Nor is that all. Additional honor he can spend
his spare time in song and dance for the two-a-
day. Wedged between tumbers and. black-faced
comedians he can bring down the house and stop
the show.
Let's be honest
Is there any one even in this land of the stunt
and exploit, who doesn't scken at such future for
the boy who flew to Paris and found world at his
feet?
Thus far, he has turned his back on the hero
baiters He has laughed at money superbly as
at death His words have been as fine as his achieve
ment: "The expedition was not for profit My
career is in the air"
But how long will very young man be able to
keep this simple, charming dignity without active
encouragement by his country?
Something must be done. Some way must
find reward worthy of him.
1t will be simple problem for we lack the
machinery of honor and glory that exists in the
older lands. The lack will be no excuse, however,
will it prevent unfortunate consequences should
we fail to meet occasion
Unable to offer Charles Lindbergh anything
better than bilboards and footlights, will have
lost more than he, and will find ourselves ridcu-
lous in the eyes of all the world.

&n our relations abroad
Yesterday afternoon at Arlington, surrounded
3bythe moldering bones of warrior heroes whose
gallant souls have gone to join those in the great
zvalhalla, President Coolidge told his hearers

q "While we wish for peace everywhere it is our
2desire that it should not be a peace imposed by
america but peace established by each nation for
itself
I'VE want our relationship with other nations
biased not on meeting of bayonets but on meeting
~of minds. :"
Il Fair words and worthy, surely, but our relations
with other countries have not always, of late, been
1based these principles.
With the great powers have been circum
aspect enough And far, we have admirably with
7steod pressure, both from without and within the
country to throw such scruples to the wind in our
Treatment of China. In the Far East none can say
THAT we have have done badly.
But nearer home, notably in Nicaragua and
Mexico our Department of State has violated each
and every of the Presidents proclaimed rules Of
conduct.
