(iood Season reason on fur bearing animals, which recently closed, was one of the Dust in several years from the standpoint of numbers of pelts taken by trappers In the Jersey, Greene and Cnlhoun areas.

While prices for furs were low, mnny trappers reported making good wages. Minks were more plentiful than for some years, and prices were fair. The advent of the deep snow in early January put a stop to much trapping, for the fur bearers denned up, and the volume of catches was reduced to the low point for the open season. Although foxes were much more numerous than in former years, there were fewer taken in traps than for some time. The price of fox pelts was low.

The animals were more difficult to lure into traps this season, trappers reported, and the belief was expressed that this was due to the plentiful supply of food the ani- nals were able to obtain, represented by the large numbers of Baits did not appeal to their appetites.
