Bay Company, was formed. in 1670 to aequire the pelts. taken by Indian and Jaskimo trappers and to trans- port those pelts to European; mar- kets. ;Since then the quest for files has continued. To -day trappers still face the dangers and the hardships of Winter in the remote places of the country to set and visit •their trap lines and to collect the skins of fur - bearing animals that are snared. Though the old pursuit of fur -bear- ing animals in their natural habitats still is carried on, men have been tak- ing steps to bring the fur trade near- er to civilization. They have been striving to learn methods of raising fur -bearing animals in captivity, or in restricted tracts of territory where they ean live under natural conditions, be protected from their ordinary en- emies and be captured readily when required. Thus, a new industry, "fur farming," is being founded in this and in other countries. One branch of that new industry at least may be said to have been established. This is the black, or silver, fox industry. The founding of this industry was no a simple task because it involved study of the "care and the feeding of foxes in captivity. Much progress has been made in this, study at the Experimental Fox Ranch of the Do- minion Department of Agriculture at Summers*, Prince Edward Island, and on privately -owned ranches. Fox breeders in Canada, in co-operation with the Department of Agriculture, have established a system of registra- t:on of pedigreed black foxes and have also introduced a co-operative system of matketing fox pelts. I3101USEHOLD DISCOVERIES To Freshen Biscuits or Buns. Take a stout paper bag, pour in water, and as quickly as possible; empty the bag again. Do not let the water soak through the paper. • Place biscuits or buns in the bag, twist the top and place it in a hot coven until sufficiently warm. There Js just enough moisture to soften the •ibiscuits without making them soggy. Use a large salt shaker—such as • imay be procured very cheaply for flaur for dredging fish, meat, etc., be- fore cooking.

Some are raising other varietiei of fur -bearers, such as mink, raccoon and skunk. Of late, a rumber of the new class of partici- pales in the fur trade have been en- gaging in the business of raising muskrats. Some of these persons in the United States have established large farms, the most extensive, pro- bably, of which is in Louisiana and comprises 110,000 acres of trapping lands. In British Columbia, a Can- adian fur farmer, or group of fur farmers, is using more than 8,000 ac- res of territory for the production of muskrats and, in Manitoba, Saskat- chewan and Alberta, it is said, many persons are planning to go into this bsenb. of the fur -farming industry. The Canadian Government, realizing the possibilities in muskrat farming, decided some time ago to lease farm- ing privileges on waste lands, belong- ing to the Dominion, in those prov- furniture, scrub with a small inces. The Government proposed to .dipped in a quart of very hot water' lease tracts, not to exceed 640 acres h i has been added about two each at a rental of 26 cents an acre 1 to h c tablespoonfuls of gasoline. This mix- ture brightens colors and will not -cause any non -fast dyes to rim. The whole Dominion is talking of the great improvement in the Family Reeald and Weekly Star, Montreal. At $1 a year or three yearrs for $2 it •s the farmer's highest dividend pay - ng investment, and the family circle gets with it the best of all magazines free. TURNING MARS Iv ES INTO FUR for the first three years and $1 aril acre thereafter and, it was stated, a laige number of persons made appli- eations for locations. Since the muskrat is an aquatic arimal and its natural habitat is swamp land, muskrat farming can be peacticed under very different condi- tions from those in the fox farming industry. The muskrat farmer has to protect his stock from its natural enemies by surrounding his marshy property with a good wire fence bur- ied to the depth of a foot or so be- low the surface of the ground.. The ninskrat farmer does not have to solve the problem of feeding his an- imals or of housing them in such manner as to guard them against d:sease. The, man who operates a muskrat farm allows the little beasts to live under natural conditions, to eat the food that grows for them in the marshes and to build their own 'houses'. If, in a long winter, natural • food supplies run low, the mus ra ,farrner can supplement them witlk a few turnips, carrots or the like. The FARMS For more than two hundred and 'My years men have hunted wild an- imals in the uninhabited area of this 'country, as far north as Hudson 'Bay and the Arotic Ocean, in order to suipply de world's demand for furs. The 1ComPany of Gentlemen Adventurers Trading into Hudson -Bay, commonly known as the Hudson muskrat farming industry, thus, pro- ,. vioes a new use for certain Marshy lands that otherwise would be of lit- tle benefit to man. Of this aspect of the business, a bulletin of the United States' Department of Agriculture spoke. It referred particularly to the marshes in Dorchester Couttty, Mary- land.
