Mink born this spring will be a $20 to $30 pelt on the fur markets this fall. Of course, a number are kept for breeding. They thrive in this section, and horse meat is their favorite food, taking five ounces a day. The carcass of a mink is worthless as a food for even other mink. Mr. Moody uses it by grinding it up fine, bones and all, and making fertilizer from it for his farm. The most valuable animal on the Smoky Fur Farm is the silver fox. Mr, Moody has 12 of these, and they are kept in pens 30 by 4 feet. Their pelts bring from f50 to $200 each. Sometimes when things go wrong, the foxes bark so loud they can be heard a half mile. The fox does not multiply as fast as the mink, yet they eat about the same diet, and their carcass is likewise useless except for fertilizer. The 14 head of beavers is the source of much comment. They eat vegetables, and must have their 2-foot pool of water. If a beaver only knew it, he would get to live a lots longer on a fur farm if he refused to go near the water. Their long fur gets matted and worthless unless they give it a frequent shampoo. Their sharp front feet act as a comb, and after a play in the pool, they sit for long periods on the bank, combing their fur. Of course this makes their fur fluffy, clean, and untangled, and bring from $12 to $15 each, Mr. Moody has no ticed some of the beavers stay ing under water for five minutes at a time. They will eat carrots, cabbage, corn, potatoes, or almost any garden product, but no meat. The other 11 animals on the farm are the Siberian Golden fitch. Resembles in many respects the American mink, except for color. Mr. Moody started out with a pair last fall, and the first litter netted him nine, which makes eleven fitch in all. They also confine their diet to five ounces of horse meat a day. Their pelts bring about $10 each. Raising fitch in this section is an experiment, and from all indi cations this area suits them fine, as other fitch raisers point out that seven to the litter is high. The mink, fox and fitch get 80 per cent meat and 20 per cent mix tures of prepared food. The horse meat is gotten by butchering old worn out horses, and grinding up bones, flesh and all. This is frozen and used as needed. At present, Mr. Moody's 145 animals are'eat- 3-Day Catholic Revival Starts 16th - - (Continued from page 1) group of students has carried into Oklahoma the training received at the college.

Mr. Moody went to a fur grow ers convention in Michigan and there bought several pairs of ani mals, and discussed problems with some of the largest growers in the United States and Canada. He has given the project enough testing and knows it is, profitable, as well as interesting work since he started two years ago. Funeral Services Held For 31rs.

Save Coat Hangers So YouH Have Plenty for Duration The war comes closer home. ; Hunt up all your coat hangers. Not to sell this time, as has been the case in the past when church groups collected and sold them, but to keep so that you may have enough to supply your family for the duration. This sudden attention to coat hangers is a war reaction. There are to be no more put out on the market. A local cleaning establishment is notifying customers this week that when bringing cleaning to the plant they must bring a hanger and when cleaning is delivered to home they must give delivery boy one to replace that on which the garments are delivered.
