AS WE SEE IT THIS WEEK
At The
Pascagoula- Moss Point Bank
TO OUR FRIENDS AND CUSTOMERS:

We pause to consider the end of another year-Review
OF accomplishments by Jackson County citizens reveals the
fact that much has been done. If we were asked to name the
one outstanding event of the year, our vote would be for the
project for the deepening of Pascagoula River. For more than
a century, substantial progress for US and our forbears. has
been stymied because we did not have deep water. Citizens of
jackson County have witnessed a rise and fall of prosperity,
ana much Il tnat prosperity was activated on our river fronts.
In past years, big industry looked our way and the lack
OF a deep water harbor prevented a successful contact BUT
NOW. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING DEEPER
WATER. 1t is our humble opinion that now we cannot be de-
MED. We are building along the banks of our natural water
ways; we are building our economy on our own natural re-
sources; we are planning the utilization of other resources
which the agricultural experts of our state tell US can be very
profitable, with proper planning.
We call on each and every citizen to cast his thinking
and his efforts into one mold-to remember that we are build
ing not for one individual, or for one group, but that our coll
lective efforts in the right direction will mean much for all of
us and for those who come after us.

MUSKRAT CARCASS
ONCE WORTHLESS
IS SOLD AS Meat
.High-priced Beef and Pork Make
Ready Market for Animals
Caught by Trappers
Bulk of CarcasSes Sold in Lima
Industrial Plants; Prices
Up to 81 Each

High-priced beef and pork have
made a ready market for muskrat,
raccoon and opossum carcasses dur
ing the trapping season which closed
last Thursday, a survey of local fur
buyers showed this week.
First demand for game to alleviate
meat shortages came during the war,
but the demand was greater than
ever this winter as retail meat prices
moved to consistently higher levels.
In pre-war years, carcasses were
picked up from fur buyers for tank
age at only few cents each, and
sometimes fur buyers gave them
away in order to get rid of them.
This winter, however, carcasses
were used as food by many city
families, iand commanded ready
market at fancy figures. Local trap
pers sold the bulk of their carcasses
in Lima industrial plants, with musk
rats and opposums bringing 25 cents
each, and raccoon as much as 81.
Besides, trappers got peak prices
of $500 for pelts taken from musk
rats, and raccoon pelts averaged
about 81 throughout the season.
With the close of the trapping
season last Thursday, local trappers
were checking up on the seasons fur
take, only about half as good as the
preceding year, with the exception of
raccoon which were exceptionally
numerous. Part of the loss of in
come from short fur yield, how
ever, was offset by the money obtain
ed in selling carcasses as food.
