Tentative Plans | Tentative plans for the orgarsza- | tion embrace only those breeders | who are engaged in raising the| ctrain of mink known as ‘“Yukon bred stock.” There has been no proper classification of mink, Ames | says, because the industry is still in its infancy. Greater interest is now being taken, however, and the judges at the Fur Show have taken the stand that mink of inferior and unknown strain must be barred from entry to discourage the growth of inferior animals. | “Yukon Territory mink,” is the| new designation for “Alaska interior mink.” This is to distinguish the stock which originated at Carcross, Yukon Territory, from other strains of mink. These mink lead all oth- ers in the qualities of fur, color an ize, Ames said, and practically all of the ranches in Mendenhall val- al of ¢ ley are breeding tha tstrain. season is set forth in the following The original stock came from the ‘xvp t pens of Alfred Dickson, of Car-!Freight Received from cross, Y.
