• 'LA IMS THAT F< )R
FARM INC. FAILCKK
That fox farming in interim* Alaska as
a commercial proposition is a failure, is
the opinion of Marry Christie, who foi
lin'* past three years has owned a fox
farm at Alganik.
Christie says that while others may
not agree with him. lie is lirmly eon
vineed that foxes never can be suc
cessfully raised in captivity, lie claims
that he has studied tin- problem eare
fully atm given it a fair, praelieal test
in the past three years, and his con
clusions ate not the result «»f hasty judg
ment.
The one? great obstaele to the profita
ble fox farm, says Christie. Is that after
the first year, the- e-aptive- fox will in
variably kill its .voting. Tills, lie* e !»*
clare-s. In- has found l<> be the- truth,
by his own experience. For the past two
years the females which he- owned killed
their entire litters.
Christie had se ven pairs of foxes win n
he- decided te> abandon his farm. Those
he sold to Jae-ksem & F2 verson, who in
tend to raise foxes on an adjacent isl
anel, where the- foxes Will be- allowed to
run free.
