Fur farmers of Minnesota cannot
legally sell any fur-bearing animal
for ranching on fur farms, even
though the animal be segregated
so that its owner could identify it,
according to a ruling from the state
attorney general made public re
cently by the Game and Frh Com
missioner, George W. McCullough.
Purchasers of fur-bearing ani
mals have not been receiving fair
returns on investments, Mr. Mc
Cullough stated, as the contract
system used in the state has en
abled unscrupulous persons to mis
lead investors as to the returns
from their capital.
Complaints received at his office,
Mr. McCullough continued, state
that certain buyers of fur-bear
ing animals were required to pay
ranching fees amounting to almost
the cost of the animal', and that
they were unable to dispose of their
holdings at a price that would re
imburse them for the ranching fee,
to say nothing of their original in
vestment.
False statements concerning in
creases in animals providing reve
nue for both the purchaser and the
rancher have been made in many
instances, according to Mr. Mc
Cullough’s statement.
