Those interested will he ahle to pi-otit l)y the results of these experiments. We have long had hiws to j)rotect our fish and game Init the fur- bearers have been entirely negleeted. Meanwhile they are so fast that the danger point has been reached. Attention to this resource is highly necessary at this time, both because of economic reasons and because there is danger of its passing beyond our control through its entire extinction. The fur-bearing mammals can be made to pay a large dividend if the capital stock of breeding animals is increased. In most of the provinces of Canada, and in many of the eastern states, all of the more important fur-bearing mammals are protected during the summer season, when their fur is of practically no Fig. ;s.—Skins of lur-bearers obtained on a liunt witli dogs near Martin's Ferrj', Humboldt County. The open season is usually limited to five months—Noveml)er 1st to April 1st. In many places a license has to be procured before fur- bearers can be trapped. In Canada the demand for live animals for breeding purposes has become so great that laws have been passed prohibiting the hunting of fur-bearing animals during the breeding season. Each state as it has attempted to protect the fur-bearers has been confronted with difficulty, for many of the fur-liearing mammals are predatory and their depredations on domesticated animals and birds are in manv eases serious. In most instances trouble has been avoided by providing that animals found destroying poultry and live stock could be killed. In many cases where depredations are reported the rancher himself is to blame for not better protecting his poultry and farm animals and as people come to a knowledge of the value of fur-bearers as a national resource there will be mo
