Now A new strain of Alaskan fox, and vne which may mean a great re- |covery for Southeast Alaskan fur farmers after the war, will make its debut this season on the New | York fur markets. It is the silver- blue or platinum-blue fox, a cross between the blue and the white. The new strain is being devel; oped on the experimental farm near Petersburg, a joint project of the Alaska Game Commission and the University of Alaska. Execu- tive Officer Jrank Dufresne of the Alaska Game Commission has recently returned from an inspec- tion trip to the farm and reports that a few of the new breed will be pelted and the furs sent to New York to see just how much the critters will bring on the market. The pelts will be hardled through the Fur Research Diyision of the Fish and Wildlife Service in New York. The new breed is obtained by crossing the white fox with the blue, and. then breeding the result back with the white. Although the second generation offspring come out all the way from half white and half blue, to all white and all blue, the third generation usy- ally brings out the sought for platinum-blue fur, and it is be- lieved that the fourth generation will firmly establish the breed. Some of the farmers who have visited the experimental farm and have seen the results of selective breeding are anxious to develop the breed. So the Game Commis- sion has decided to auctibn four male whites and four female blues to the highest bidders at a public sale on the farm on January 11.
