PAGE TWELVEFOX FARMINGTOLD BY ONEOUT OUR WAYWayne Liddell Gives Some Interesting Facts Concerning Novel Industry in the Hart-land Herald.As a number of Albert L lens are interested in the Fox farm at Hackensack, the following article takena cHl-gilver I Minn.,j fromthe Hart land Herald will undoubt edly interest them as well as many other Tribune readers:A great deal of misinformation has been disseminated, both locally and in other sections, concerning the status of the silver fox industry, the responsibility of its pio-moters and the profits that may reasonably be expected from investment therein. The writer has been more or less interested in this industry and the manner of its promotion for some time, and in a talk with Wayne C. Liddell, district sales supervisor of the Maeser Fur Farms. Inc., of Hackensack, Minn., we secured the following allay ol facts, which may.be of interest to our readers:-In some parts of the country,” stated Mr. Liddell, ‘ and particularly in and around llartland, the impression has been created that the silver-black fox industry is not an established form of enterprise— that the business has been organised to fleece the public, and that ;..... donating their,ISREG U S RAT OIT-TUE RATIinvestors are merely donating their funds to an imaginary concern t hat i will walk off over night with their J money. This is not true. The sil- i ver-fox industry is a sound, well developed, profitable enterprise, and proofs of its solidity aie read-, ily available to all who are inter- ji s ted. iTo anyone who doubts the truth ; or the above statement I would like to give the following advice: Seeyour local banker and have him look up the size and responsibility of the Maeser Fur Farms, Inc., and if you wish to go further Into the matter, 1 will take pleasure in driving you over the big raneh at Hackensack—one of the most ed ueational trips you have ever made, and there you will see, not only fox farming as it is conducted according to the most scientific and up to date methods employed in the world today, but also some of the finest cattle, chickens, dogs, and horses. Everything is open to public Inspection and every phase of the vast business fully revealed to visitors who are coming and going constanth irona all parts (if the country.The returns from investment In the silver fox industry aie ini mense, but not at all out of proportion, owing to the popularity and high price this un rivalled fur commands on the market today. An Investment, of with the Maeser Fur Farms, Inc., secures to the buyer one pair of foxes. This initial purchase guarantees to the cus-thetomer 100 per cent increase first year, guarantees him against any loss whatever during the first year, after which there la absolutely no chance of loss of one’s entire herd. With the above in mind ,it will readily be seen that the accusation of 'wildcat speculation* in no manner applies to the growing of silver foxes on the Maeser Fur farms. Ten years ago this form of investment might have been called speculation. Today you are putting your money in a solid, well-established industry.“In selling these foxes the company acts only as agent. They are left at the farm and reared under the care of experts, even a labora-!tory for the investigation of diseases, being provided, and all animals are given the same attention, thousands of dollars being spent on |this item of disease prevention! ;alone We aie proud of the low Ideath rate among our ioxes.this:far be-rate being only 4 out of 900-low th** human ratio. q‘The Mat ter company operates jgl throughout the world, maintaining] ^iiToo Much44Acid?»ranches in Alaska, Prince Edward Island.

The company operates its own fur buying company with millions of dollars invested, and it would seem that only iguorance of the fur industry an its vast accomplishments and possibilities would lead anyone to regard it as a 'wildcat industry.’‘‘I will be pleased at any time to refer prospective buyers to hundreds of satisfied customers and extend to all a hearty invitation to our mid summer meeting where you | ran see at first hand the magni-]j tiule of the industry and what it L iias accomplished.” .Excess I 'iic Acid Civet Rite to Muny L'nplcasant Troubles.AI THORITIES agree that XX f\ct ss of uric acid is tanprimarily due to faulty kidney action.
