The
Rambler
Prices
A SIC, 900 Benny
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

ny 6EOfSGE KENNEDY
would you like a platinum
mink coat, darling?" asked
the Rambler. He was in an
amiable mood.
Il certainly do not" she
said. II think they are osten-
tatious. And besides they
make any woman, who is not
tall and slender, look fat"
That was lucky because the
coat he had priced that
morning was tagged at
$4,000.
This was at the show put
on by the Mutation Mink
Breeders Association in the
lobby of the Commerce De-
partment.
When he arrived Walter
Taylor, president of the as
sociation, wearing heavy
leather gloves, was struggling
with a healthy mink, while
holding it by the tail in an
effort to get the critter to
pose for a eameraman.
And a model (tall, slender
onel was wearing the $4,000
coat.
A young woman public re-
lations counsel named Pat
expressed fear that the mink
would bite the model. For
some reason the cameraman
wanted the live mink nes-
tling in the shawl of the coat.
That mink is worth $500
for breeding purposes" said
Pat. They're as easy to hold
as q boa constructor. Walter
is always afraid one will get
away from him. They're not
easy to catch in a building
as big as this" =

vile. DR.. Travis is author of
fundamentals of Mink
Ranching" published by
Michigan State University.
L wouldn't be precipitate
about starting a mink
ranch," he said. This is a
very risky business as every
one in it knows.
1T is absolutely dependent
on style.
You remember how small
fortunes were made in silver
fox farming after World War
I? Wen, the, Fromm broth
ers of Wisconsin are now
raising mink for the most
part. There was nothing they
could do to continue the
popularity of fox once tickle
fashion changed her mind.
Furthermore, it's quite an
achievement to breed and
raise an animal whose pelt
will sell for $50 or more. The
average price at the auctions
last year was SIG, a drop
from $21 the year before.
THE industry is concerned
about its growth, not only
here but in northern Europe.
This year American growers
will market 6 million pelts-
a crop worth about $100 mil
lion. Ten years ago the num-
ber of pelts sold at auction
was a little over 2 million"
Good show No charge.

ON A CHART were peltS
of various colors. The asSoci-
alton rates an A in nomen-
clature. Among them were
Cerulean Cblue), Tourmaline
(pale beige) and Aeolian
(gray taupe).
The Rambler asked if mu-
tationS were promoted by
radiation.
NO." said Pat. The muta-
tions occur naturally. Every
once and a while an off color
kit is born. Biologists call
them sports The breeders
once considered them value
less and destroyed them. For
the last 10 years they have
been cross breeding the
sports to obtain a variety of
lighter colors. Today the pas
tells and platinumS are the
big part of the trade.
Il wish we could get rid of
that word mutation. 1t was
all fight 10 years ago. Now
it's a bad word. wish we
could change it to .Mendalian
Mink Breeders"
After putting the mink
back in his cage-there are a
dozen live minks in the ex-
hibit and a variety of gar
merts Mr.. Taylor offered
to tell us about the industry.
The baby minks kits are
born In May in large litters.
They are killed and pelted
(skinned) in November. They
are fed a carefully balanced
diet of grain, meat, fish and
waste from poultry packing
plants. The food costs about
6 cents a pound,
Platinum pelts from the
animals he was showing
would sell for about $50.
Sounded like a pretty good
business to go into. An an
nual crop with a high price.
Low feed costs. One way to
buy a $4,000 coat.

over revealed they were "aS
tired Of TV Westerns as were
some of their parents"
Story Two: One-fourth of
England was without power for
several hours because viewers
watching Wagon Train rose
from their chairs when the
story ended cat about 9:25
p.m), turned on the lights,
plugged in the kettle. and made
divers other demands on the
power system. A switch went
out at a substation and this in
turn affected other stations.
Who's tired of Westerns?
Well, it could be argued that
the power system hadn't gone
out after previous Wagon Train
episodes and that this partic-
ular one was a SmaSher. Eng
land is seeing earlier editions
Of the series when it was at it's
beSt.)
On the other hand, evidence
of interest like this seems a
bit more substantial than a
survey, the details of which
were missing from the brief
wire story. How many children?
How were the questions
phrased? And so on.
The only survey" I really
ever believed came from the
water commissioner of one of
our middle-sized Eastern cities.
Back in 1852, or thereabouts,
he reported that variance in,
water consumption reached a
weekly peak on Mondays, be-
tween 9 and $50 pm. The
cause? I Love Lucy, then the
hottest show on the tube. While
it was on, water consumption
dropped to virtually nothing;
at $50, the viewers-including
kids allowed to stay up for that
one program - rushed to get
that postponed drink or draw
their baths. You could almost
see the water level in the old
reservoir drop!
=
Over here, the Westerns seem
to have had it, although Jack
Paar was saying the other night
that the kids still watch them.
It's not that they're interested
in the stories, however. It seems
that they play a kind of guess
ing game - guessing what will |
happen next, how many shots
it will take for the marshal to
dispose of the gunslinger. etc.
Type-casting helps here, of
course. The same players seem
to show up in every other
filmed program. Wednesday

girl on Wagon Train was COM

Ferry Design Easy On Fuel

JUNEAU R-An efficient hull design for the three ships to be used on the Southeast Alaska run will result in substantial savings, B. E. Lewellen, director of the ma rine transportation division, said
 He said recent tests indicated the hull design will permit the three ferries to operate with less horse power than anticipated, which could mean a possible saving of $120,000 to $150,00O a year in the operation of each ship.
 Lewellen said the designs were recently tested in the University of Michigan design laboratory.
