Strides Made IN Fur FARMING.

THE great strides made by fur farming, the
latest member of the farming family, is best
shown by the production of silver fox skins
Fifteen years ago about 100 Of these valuable
skins were offered for sale at tremendous prices.
During the past year $4,000 of these skins, the
product of the fur farms, were the market.
The total investment In fur farms IN this
country and Alaska lies between $40 ,OO0, 900 and
$25,0O0O00 total which places this branch Of
agriculture on firm and important footing.
Ten years ago practically no attention was
given to fur farming by State legislative bod
les and game commissions. But when this
country became convinced of the necessity for
more stringent regulatory measures, fur farm
ing came in for its share and many fur laws
were enacted without full consideration of the
economic problems involved Many of the
laws now on the statute books do little to assist
the development of the industry
So far as fur farmers are concerned, it is
unreasonable to believe that they not in
terested in perpetuating the natural resource
that is the very backbone of their business.
The majority of fur farmers favor the conserva-
ton Of wild life, but they feel that they are
being handicapped by legislation that gives q
trapper the right to kill all the fur bearers he
can take during open seasons and pay the State
a few dollars for the privilege. The fur farm
er, on the other hand, is required to obtain a
PEELED to pay from 81 to $25 for this privilege
depending upon the State in which he is OPP
Grating.
In addition to this, some States require him
to pay fee for the number Of animals trapped
in the wild for propagation purposes. This
seems to him unreasonable, because fur farm
ers are interested in propagatiag the animals
for the fur that can be produced, while the
tTappers are constantly draining the sources of
natural supply, without expanding any efforts
toward producing more animals
Too often the business of raising fur bearers
has been handicapped by stringent legal restric-
tions that are not based on careful research.
For example, the point has been raised in some
quarters that persons having fur-animal pens
may become poachers and capture young ami
mails in close season, simply to kill them for their
pelts later in the year within their Enclosures,
instead OF retaining them as breeders.
The supposed danger to the wild stock in
capturing animals for legitimate breeding OPP
Grafton has frequently outweighed in many
minds the palpabIe impossibility of satisfying
the demand for fur unless natural production
is supplemented by actually raising fur animals
in captivity. The fact also Is sometimes over
looked that as fur farming develops and the
haunts of wild life are restricted by more In
tensive use Of lands for agricultural and other

purposes, the present tireless pursuit Of fur
bearers in the wild will decrease.
It is generally understood that conservation
commissions are primarily interested in the pro-
lection and conservation of game and game
birds and are in favor of reducing to a minimum
the numbers of the so-called ''vermin" fur bear
ers, including the fox, marten, mink skunk, rae
coon and opoSsum, and thereby eliminating the
natural enemies Of desirable species of game
animals and birds. Under this situation, it is
declared unreasonable for State legislatures to
pass laws preventing fur farmers from captur-
ing and propagating these undesirable" fur
animals to perpetuate natural resource that
is of great value to the country.
It should be mentioned that the State laws
on fur-anirnal propagation do not pertain di-
rectly to silver fox farming This is probably
due to the fact that foxes have been bred fed
and handled as are domestic animals and for
longer period than the other fur bearers.
Fundamentally, the production Of all fur ami
mails on farms is closely akin to the breeding of
domestic livestock The problems of the fur
farmer are much the same as those that arise
in other livestock undertakings. They include
knowledge of species, individual temperament,
feeding, breeding and management practices
and diseases and parasites. In other words, the
problems that the fur farmers are facing are
largely Of scientific nature, and they are work.
ing gradually toward their solution
Fur farmers recognize the fact that State
game COMMISSIONS are acClng IN q sovereign
capacity in protecting the wid-life resources for
the people Of the States. They also appreciate
that 1t is necessary to obtain some Of these
breeding animals by capturing them in the wild
This phase of the industry they understand as
being under the supervision of the State game
commissions. They are opposed, however, 70
State control over other features Of fur farm
ing and are of the opinion that they should have
the same rights to develop their business as
those now enjoyed by cattle swine, sheep and
poultry raisers.
Since license fees from fur farms are used
for the protection and propagation Of fish and
game, it is reasonable that fur farmers should
be consulted regarding the framing of laws per-
tanning to an industry in which they are vitality
interested. Those responsible for drafting fur
farming laws, it is argued, should be open
minded not allowing themselves to be swayed
by any one interest at the expense of another.
In other words, they should give the same con-
sideration to fur farmers and their needs that
they do to trappers and sportSmen.
Fur farming occupies place in the general
scheme Of conversation. The extent to which
1t may develop as an industry depends not only
on the interest manifested by the fur farmers
themselves but on the support and encourage
ment given it by conservation commissions and
State Legislatures.

INDUSTRIAL SHOW
DESCRIBED ON AIR
President Darr of Commerce
Chamber Stresses Evil
dences of Growth.
lshington's nth annual Industrial

washington's NTH annual Industrial
Exposition, which opens tomorrow with
I12 different exhibits, was the subject
of a radio talk given last night over
Station WNAL by Charles w. Darr,
president of the Chamber of Commerce,
who stressed the amazing growth of
the National Capital and its increasing
importance as q business and CONNER
cial center for constantly growing
territory.
The object of the exposition, Mr..
Darr declared, is to give all Washing
tonians a bird's-eye panorama of how
washington has hit its stride in the
national march of progress"
Mr.. Darr declared that the problem
of commercial development in Wash
ington is one OF greater "delicacy" than
generally is the case. Because OF its
unique status among American citizens,
he pointed out, it is necessary and
desirable that Washington's industries
be of a type which will not interfere
with our purpose to make the National
Capital a show place for the whole
world to admire"
Need Of Opportunities.
On the other hand, he explained, it
is necessary to have suflcient amount
of industry and commerce to insure
proper opportunities for a growing
generation and to supply the necessities
Of life SO as to make the city in some
measure independent of outside sources.
Many industries can be made ply
sically unobjectionable," he said, "and
it now is universally recognized that
manufacturing establishments may be
so planned and constructed as to mt
in with the general character of a par
ticular neighborhood and become an
asset rather than liability to the
appearance of the community"
Manufacturing output in Washing
ton is on the increase" Mr.. Darr said.
Trade is steadily growing. Jobs are
becoming more numerous. Wage scales
and industrial city, Washington may
be said to be coming of age"
Mr.. Darr explained in detail the
various kinds Of exhibits at the forth
coming exposition and the organizations
behind them.
While 10000 visited last years expo
sition, he said, the Gambler of Com
merce, which is promoting it, wss conf
dent that the attendance would exceed
10o, 900 this season.
Printing TO Be Explained.
An article on 1.-THE Printing and
Allied Industries In the National Capt.
tai" by william John Eynon, president
Of the Typothetae of Washington. will
be published in the official handbook
Of the exposition. Copies will be dis
tributed at the Auditorium during the
exposition period.
Printing and the allied industries lead
all others in Washington, Mr.. Eynon
stated In the article, the value of the
products in this group in 1927 amount
ing to &31, 653 Asst. This total, he states,
represents about one-third of the COM
bined value of all products manufac-
tured in the District of Columbia in
that year.
Not only is the printing industry the
largest, but it is one of the most rapidly
growing.

EARTH CENTER SOLID.
German Scientists Complete Test to
Determine Cores Makeup.

BERLIN (P1.-Recent experiments
indicating that the center of the earth
may be solid as a rock are announced
by Prof. Franz Simon of the Physio-
Chemical Institute of Berlin.
Enormous pressure, million times
that of the air. he thinks, keeps the
core Of the earth hard even at. its esti-
mated temperature of nearly 10000 de-
grees Fahrenheit.
Prof. Simon'S experiments agree with
the beliefs of biologists, many of whom
hold that the earth's core is not molten
or gaseous.
Simon heated helium to eight times
the temperature that turns 1t into a
gas and then reduced 1t while still
warm to a solid by applying pressure
5000 times greater than that of air.

ing classes is slowly improving, it was
stated by the German Saving Banks
Association, which shows In It's annual
report that deposits are steadily in

Total bank deposits in all Germany
amount to about 1850, 000, 900, exactly
Al per cent of the pre-war total. The
average of deposit accounts in Berlin
banks is only two dollars less than in
1914.
1t is regarded as remarkable, more
over, that deposits are higher than
Withdrawals, and that new accounts
exceed the number closed, which was
not the case In pre-war days.
