Odds and Ends
THANKS AND COME AGAIN

IF you say anything in your paper
about my visit to Libby, be sure to
say that | think you have the most
beautiful country | have ever seen.
Your little city is so clean and
lovely and the surrounding coun-
try is simply delight"
We have probably heard that ex-
preston dozen times from visitors
in the city during the past week
or 10 days. They not only voice
their delight in this section but they
want to tell the world about it.
That, of course, is pleasant news to
Libby people. We are in love with
this delightful section and we like
to have others pleased with it.
Not long ago a woman from the
eastern part of Montana said she
had no idea there was such a love-
" spot in all Montana. Another
woman leaned out from her car and
said to us, ''Oh, but your town is SC
pretty and is so much cleaner than
Manning not distant city. J
Now, my dad wouldn't like to hear
me say that for he is great booster
for his own town but it is true"
We extend warm thanks for al
these kind expressions from the Wis
itors within our gates. If you have
enjoyed your stay here we have
been doubly repaid, and we hope
your tarrying here has been so pleas
ant that you will soon be coming
back.

Few people in Eureka realize
perhaps the extent to which the fur
farm industry has reached within its
boundary. A. L. Rabe has built
up a very interesting and what will
soon be very remunerative little
farm on the outskirts of Riverside
avenue. Mr.. Rabe has been slowly
building up his herd for the past 10
years. The first few years were de-
voted primarily to experimentation.
He has now reached the point where
he will sell part of his increase for
breeding purposes and for fur. Mr..
Rabe now has So pens and a third
building containing 48 pens is in
process of construction In these
pens are 81 mink, 20 of which are old
animals ranging from one to four
years. He also has four martin. We
might add that he possesses two
faithful and effective watch dogs
who take great pleasure in guard
ing the premises against all intrud-
ers. In addition to them and as
further protection against theft, in
case any animal is missed, Mr. Rabe
reports to fur headquarters at once.
Since these animals are choice and
not plentiful, it would be very hard
for anyone to dispose of pelt
without inviting an inquiry.
Mr. Rabe seldom takes anyone
through his pens, especially during

Eureka Mon Hos Large Plant for
Breeding and Raising Mink and Martin

breeding season. since these little
animals sense a strange presence at
once and are extremely nervous.
The martins are even more nervous
than the mink and much harder to
breed and rear. The feed consists
of ground raw meat, cereal and veg
etable and milk. Running water
flows through the pens continuous
ly. In winter they are fed once a
day but during summer, when there
are little ones, they receive feed
twice daily. The mink, who are
members of the weasel family, are
dark brown in color, the males be-
ing much larger and darker than
the females. The pelts bring $50
The animals for breeding purposes
bring $40 Since the males are
greedy and take the feed from the
females, they are kept in separate
quarters. The martin are larger
than the mink, about the same color
but with burnt orange fur under
the throat. Their faces are more
fox like with perking ears of some
size. These little animals are very
tiny when born, being about inches
in length and as big around as a
lead pencil. There are from one
to IL in litter; seven being the
largest litter belonging to Mr.. Rabe.
When grown they are from 16 to 28
inches in length, depending on sex
and breed. Mr.. Rabe has the Que
bee mink and Broom martin.
Here is an industry for one to
make good in if one has patience
and intelligence especially pa
tience, | would say, after talking
to Mr.. Rabe and his experiences
with the little fellows, for it has
taken years of patience industry to
bring about this little farm to the
present paying basis. The animals
shed twice year, in April and
September. They are only at the
peak of fur perfection ten days of
each year" states Mr.. Rabe. How
can he tell? That is his secret and
he well deserves to hold it after
these years of waiting for the
harvest.

GOODBYE DICK.

Tragedy has entered the editors
family. A cherished little pet no
longer greets us. He was Dick, a
friendly little German roller canary.
Dick loved to be placed on the
back porch where he could enjoy
the bright sunshine and the warm
summer air. Monday noon he was
there when sharp gust of wind
tipped over his cage. 1t fell with a
crash onto the concrete step below.
A hurried rush to the scene found
a stunned and crumpled little bird.
He revived somewhat, and Topped
onto his perch where he sat with
out moving until he toppled over
dead about an hour later.
And now the rich, golden voice
of happy and willing little song
ster is silenced. A short life but a
lovable one May he find sweet
peace in some happy bird heaven.
