Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fur Traders and Fur Bearing Animals How little we know and how much there is to learn. Research and investigation along any given line show how incomplete is our knowledge even of the things with which we are most familiar. There is nothing new under the sun, but there is always something we do not understand about the subjects to which we have given the most thought and study. The scientist who knows all about the origin of a species, sometimes has the least knowledge as to how it can best be conserved, or of its real worth to the community, while the breeder who thoroughly understands propagation problems, and the dealer who can exactly estimate the value of the products of fur bearing animals, often know little about their origin, nature, habits and habitat. The object of this volume is to bring within the reach of each of these classes the information possessed by the others; and to give to students of natural history and the general public a synopsis of everything of value that has been written by others upon this subject, together with many facts that heretofore have not been matters of general information. The author has not attempted to write a new history of any part of the Animal Kingdom, but to present in condensed form and simple language authentic information regarding the structural formation, external appearance and distinguishing features of the more important fur-bearing animals; and to show by comprehensive charts and tables the proper grouping, and the relations and affinities each to each, of the different species.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fur-Bearing Animals: In Nature and in Commerce This work is intended, firstly, to aid persons engaged in trade to recognize readily, and to have a closer knowledge of the animals with which they are to some extent already familiar, and which they would have some difficulty in finding in more elaborate and scientific works. Secondly, to be a connecting link between commerce and science. The scientific portions of natural history are often described with much detail, but, though interesting and important, they should not altogether close our eyes to the relations which the animals bear to man, and the important part they play with regard to his clothing and, consequently, to his personal comfort. The Author has also endeavoured to make this work more interesting to the general public by adding small sketches of the habits of the animals described.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fur Trade of America For the past few years, there has been a campaign waged in the United States, which almost charges any one wearing a piece of fur with murder. When that question is asked me, I feel like answering by asking another set of questions Is child birth cruel? Is any type of birth for animals or humans painless Should we abolish all birth and strive for the Nirvana of Nothingness because all birth is at tended with even greater pain than death? Should we cease to fight for right and award honor to the heroes of war, because the triumph of right must necessarily entail death to those who fight for wrong?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fur and the Fur Trade Irving's Astoria; in the records of the Hudson's Bay Company, and in the annals of the fairs held at N ijui Novgorod and Leipsic. Here it may suffice to give some account of the present condition of the trade\ ln fancy furs. The collection of skins is now chiefly a matter of private enterprise. Few, if any, monopolies exist. The Alaska Commercial Conipany, now about ten years old, enjoys some special privilege for the taking of seal skins on the Pribiloff Islands, and some peculiar restrictions exist in Russia in relation to certain peltries, but beyond this, the trade in furs is a free one the world over. Individual enterprise, skill, forecast, and capital, have an open field. The Hudson's Bay Company, with its chief office in London, still maintains its organization, but conducts its. Affairs in North America under no special or royal grant, and com petes in the open market with individual traders throughout Canada, Labrador, Manitoba, and Columbia. Its collection of peltries is offered to the highest bidder at public auction in London, in January, March, and September of each year.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Among the Fur Traders Ninety years ago this account of how the New fur-trading Company came into exist ence, was written by Louis Wills, the only nephew of old John Wills of the X. Y. Company. Imprisoned by the winter in one of his stockaded forts on the Missouri River he set about the task as a pleasant way in which to spend the hours until the waterways were free from ice in the spring. The story is not printed exactly as he wrote it; some of his language has been changed a little, and his many pages of statistics of the fur business have been omitted. Several chap ters devoted to the early ventures in trading for pelts would have been inserted save for the fact that the entertaining information occupied far too much space.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fur Farming: A Book of Information About Fur Bearing Animals, Enclosures, Habits, Care, Etc Some animals, it is true, do well in fairly thickly-settled sections. Among animals of this kind are red fox, skunk, mink and muskrat. Yet no furbearer can hold its numbers against the ever-increasing number of trappers and the persistency with which they now seek the fur producers. North America furnishes a large per cent. Of the furs of the world - foxes, mink, otter, beaver, skunk, marten, lynx, coon, opossum, muskrat, wolves, etc. Considerable quantities of fine furs are still secured in parts of Russia, in Europe and Siberia in Asia; Australia furnishes great quantities of opossum, while from parts of South America, the trade in chinchilla is large. Yet North America has been for centuries, the great fur-producing continent and now that trapping is being pressed harder than ever and the natural haunts of the animals are becoming less each year, the question is, where will the future sup ply come from?
