Veteran Finds Midwest Trapping
gHj? Thrilling As In Pioneer Days

T//£ .^f/OOL. £ W&&T +
Remember way back when the
possum curled up on the branches
of the trees that are now standing
in Chicago’s parks—and when it was
great Saturday afternoon sport to
trap the coons and the mink and
muskrat along the shores of the Des
Plaines River and Salt Creek. Prob
ably not! But it hasn't been so long
ago!
Chicago Is less than thirty years
away from the frontier—and it hasn't
been twenty-five years since the
wolves were at our door—literally!
You may take the word of Fred
Wegener, trapper extraordinary, who
has spent the last thirty-seven years
trapping fine furs in the very en
virons of Chicago, Western Illinois,
and Iowa.
Wegener remembers the day, some
thirty-two years ago, when he
trapped a prize specimen of a dark
American mink, one of the finest of
Its kind ever caught In the middle
west, right near the spot where the
Maywood foundry now stands.
And that wasn’t all. Just twenty
five years ago, today, the coons and
skunk and muskrat were plentiful
in these parts—and It wasn’t un
usual to go out on a single day along
i rct7 o 7'RAPPeo //y
O- 4- O ^
the course of the Des Plaines River
or the Salt Creek and bag a dozen
fat healthy specimens, according to
the trapper.
Wegener is in Chicago today mak
ing his thirty-seventh annual trip to
Chicago, bringing with him the furs
he and his son have trapped within
the past five weeks, the height of the
trapping season in Iowa.
The Wegeners trapped more than a
hundred furs this season, among
them the pelts of mink, fox, mnskrat,
weasel, civet cat and coon. They
have trapped as many as 500 furs in
one season.
“Trapping In the middle west Is
Just as profitable as it ever was, al
though you might think the progress
of civilization would have pushed
trapping farther west,” Mr. Wegener
said, displaying his raw furs at the
Shubert fur plant at 25 West Austin,
avenue today.
“My son and 1 cover between ten
and fifteen miles every day, following
our trap-line in the vicinity of Nora
Springs, Iowa. As many as a dozen
fine pelts are often trapped In a day.
Trapping is Just as picturesque, and<
In some ways as dangerous and thril
ling as it was in the old days before*
civilization Invaded the middle west.”!
