FUR RAISING NEAR JUNEAU.

The circumstances that firm is paying $50,- GOO to Mendenhal fur farmers for 400 pairs of mink and the further circumstance that these Mendenhall fur raisers have 600 additional pairs of mink for sale indicate the value of the fur raising industry in Alaska Mendenhall constitutes only small part of the domestic fur producing area of Southeast Alaska, and this $125,000 crop does not take no account fox raising at all There several pros porous fox farms in the Mendenhall district and others everywhere in Southeast Alaska.
 The praise bestowed the Mendenhall mink by the Wisconsin buyer and his judgment that this is not surpassed for producing high grade fur encouraging to those engaged in the industry here
 The breeding of fur bearing animals is still an infant industry in Alaska yet the returns from it already have become important factor in the activities of the Territory Some day it will be a very large business and that will contribute greatly to the population and prosperity of the entire North country
 Those men and women who have pioneered the industry and learned the knack and know-how of breeding and rearing fur bearing animals in Alaska have done the Territory great service-one that people are beginning to take note Of

THE ENGLISH UNIVERSITY MAN AND
 BUSINESS.

scepticism to the usefulness of the university for business training prevails in England. They discussed the proposition at the annual conference of the Association for Education in Industry held there recently, and the majority opinion seems to be that university education and business do not mix well as could be wished. The discussion at the conference has impressed the country and re- suited in a continuation of the argument The Manchester Guardian, while not fully convinced, is inclined to agree with the sceptics It says:
 The main subject under discussion at the annual conference of the Association for Education in Industry and Commerce the usefulness of the university man in business. It is indeed difficult, most of the speakers pointed out to devise a system of education which is concerned with the meaning of things rather than with things, and which is at the same time satis- factory training for business career. To be successful in business it is necessary to be able to make quick decisions and to act them. But scholarship assumes leisure. And business is in terms of the immediate, while culture cares only for what is eternal Some of the modern universities have attempted to deal with this conflict between the humanstic aims of education and the needs of business by setting up special depart mentS of commerce. But this sacrcely be regarded as a solution of the problem. Rather it is a surrender to commerce Again, certain large firms for example, Lever Brothers-have taken a number of uni- versity men for period of training, after which, if they have shown that they possess the qualities necessary to make them sucs cessful in business they appointed to the junior managerial staff. But even here it is doubtful whether those who succeed may not do so by shedding that outlook on life which the university has given them. Perhaps the only way out of the difficulty is for business men to live compartmentaly, to make their work one world and their leisure another. Charles Lamb succeeded in doing this. But then he lived at a time
