Last year during bhe export pe'rio'd;, May 1 to June 7, Canada exported a total of 937 packages of butter; this year (1931) for the s'aine period ex- ports totalled 26,012 packages. Ex- ports for the week ending June 6 to - tabled 114„6712 packages, all but 381 of - which went to the British markets et London, Liverpool, Bristol, Cardiff, and Manchester. Evidently butter` production- in Canada has settled down to an export market basis which may in the long run prove a real ben- efit to Canadian farmers. Judge Foxes by Facts It is not always safe to judge by appearances, especially when buying silver 'foxes. At least that is the es- sential conclusion to be deducted From the recommendation in this respect contained in the report •o'f'the Domin ion Experimental Fox Statipu ate Summ'Eriside, P;51., ,itls't issued, D1 state's: "I•t has been the genera} prac- tice of Fox breeders in buying breed- ing stock to make their purchase's from the appearance of the foxes without a full study of their ancestry. It is our conclusion that this is not a reliable method by which to select sil- ver fqxes for breeding stock, T•he-De- partment of Agriculture, the Canad- ian National Live stock records, and the Canadian National Silver Fox /Breeders' Association have, at great expense, -built up a system of: registra- tion of the .pedigrees; of the sliver. foxes of Canada. Fite results that we have obtained would indicate that the reputation of the foundation stock frown which the offspring were pro- duced would be a better guide in pur- chasing silver foxes than the appear- ance of the foxes, desirable as that may be; Will Exhibit in Ruins !Word has just been received by F.
