M. GOUL United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK di.P The United States fur industry, from trapper to rancher to retailer, is unhappy. Fox, mink and muskrat are heading into a three-way barrier that has brought fur prices sharply down from the high levels maintained during the war years. The weather, the stock market decline and buyer resistance that has forced the retailer to make drastic slashes in prices, constitute the triple causes that arc driving deep into the fur price structure. Freakish December weather that resembled late summer levels brought a tremendous upsurge not only in production on fur farms but in the trappers kills.

New York retail stores are reducing $700 coats by as much as $300. The daily newspapers are crowded with advertisements by the city's biggest department stores and its most exclusive fur shops, crying in big type to buy now and save, with most coats being advertised at reductions averaging one-third of tile original cost. Auction Prices Tumble Early this month furs came from out of woods, from ranches into auction centers at Seattle, St. Paul, Milwaukee and in New York Wisconsin trappers found themselves getting $22.50 to $28 per pelt for wild mink. A year ago they received $10 more.

In Seattle, ranch raised mink brought prices 25 to 35 per cent below Iasi year. As a result, sonic 40 per cent of the furs brought to market were withheld from the I auctions. At a big auction in New York, ranch-growm mink pelts brought $25 to $27. Last season they brought $33 to $35. Muskrats: pelts that sold for $3.75 in New York in July this year, brought only $2.30 in last auction.

Silver fox is perhaps the hardest hit of all, and as a result, the trappers and growers arc holding back. They are refusing, for the most part, to accept $la to 2 a per pelt for furs that brought $80 before and during the war. However, whether the withholding of furs from market will bring about a price increase is something the industry refuses to forecast. They point to the fact that women at present tend shy away from long-haired furs, a trend which is particularly felt by the silver fox industry. Afraid lo Dump One of the nation's biggest fox growers recently told the Wall Street Journal: have around 40,000 pelts on hand right now.

dumped them it would are spreading faster than they are being destroyed, according to William ll (Bill) Mercer of Amarillo. the largest weed seed collector. Mercer has been studying weeds since the early and in the intervening years has collected more than 1,500 of weed seed from the worst patches in this country and abroad. Mercer outlined his reason for believing weeds are beating war against them in the current issue ol 'Era, the monthly publication of the Bureau of Reclamation. He said that few farmers test their crop seed prior to planting.

Farmers who are careless with the seed they plant may reap a harvest of weeds over a period of years instead of a marketable crop, he warned. To illustrate, Mercer confounds I onlookers by mixing together i crop and weed seeds and then separating them. It is a difficult task because the seeds look alike, It takes expert know-how to I distinguish them. Most farmers have this know-how and try to acquire it, Mercer I said. He estimated that the annual I loss caused by weeds on some clamation projects amounts to I more than the farmer pays for operation and maintenance char- ges and construction costs com; billed.

Many people are all too care- les about w'eeri control, he said. He recalled a farm woman wrho planted a few seeds of burdock which she wanted to use in brewing a home tonic of hitters.
