ALASKA RANCHER
HAS HARD LUCK
Cordova, March 31 — "Cat and
Ra«" farms, whereby it wag pro
Posed to establish a perpetual seif
feedinf fur "factory." do not ap
peal to Joe Ibaqh, o wit or of a large
fox farm ou Middieton Island, who
is spending the winter here.
Ibach say® he conceived a semi
lar pl»n several years ago, using
Belgian hares in place of the rats,
lis expected his scheme woufld make
the tending of the foxes a Simple
matter and put himself tundt wife on
the road to wealth. For two
years, ha explained, he doubled his
his work by carefully; temiin^ the
h.ircs he iiiad purchased, as wiell us
caring for the foxes. At length
the time arrived when , by couut
he "ound he had 600 nice fat Btfl
giau hares. Ho believed that when
tueae were turned loose on the is
land', they would breed faster than
tlie foxes could devour them.
We turned the 600 hares loose
and prepared to take life easy.
Then things began to happen. The
t'oxe» liked the hares. Tliey
killed all they could eat, and
then, in well organized parties pro
ceeded to hunt tk>wn all the rest
of the rabbits.
"I could not walk a hundred feet
without running across a. dead rab
bit," I bach said. "In less time
tlm a month the entire 600 were
souc. Now," he continued, "when
anyone speaks of earning a living
without work, I think or my Bel
gian hare experiment."
The feeding of foxes raised
for their fur is no easy stask.
Pish and seal meat provide the
principle diet. The skate, one °f
the chief fish used, is covered with
a hard' and prickly shKll. which
must be cut open the back to en
able? flie fox to reach the edible por
tion inside. With, an average of
150 foxes on tho island, each re
quiring two and a half pounds of
food daily, Ibach'g task is seen to
be no sinecure. The food also
must be distributed along the
at 'he paths leading to the J ns of
the animals.
