Tony Curtis "Tarzan in "THE AND THE Pothead Whale Lack Hurts Mink Industry WHITBOURNE, appears to be facing a bleak fu- ture because of the scarcity of thead whales, for feed, and) fur prices, Ranchets in the Whitbourne- Dildo area at the south end of Trinity Bay -- about 40 miles qest of St. John's--are becom- ing alared over the decline of the potheads during the last few years. The whales are a cheap and important source of mink feed. Last year's pothead harv- est was the lowest on record, and to make matters worse other types of whales also were scarce. Victor Clousotn, one of New- foundiand's largest mink ranch- ers, after being in the business more than a quarter of a cen- tury is closing down his opera- tion, "There has been a shortage @f whale meat for the past few '*, he gaid, "and ranchers e been forced to import feeds at relatively high cost." WHALE MEAT CHEAP The Clouston mink ranch, @ $60,000 operation with about 8,- 500 animals, could befed eco. nomically when enough pothead | whale meat was available at) four to six cents per pound. Feeding the mink on imported Ontario liver, at 16 to 18 cents) @ pound, or horsemeéat at 12 to! 14 cents takes the profit out of/ the business. | "Other headaches are over- supply of mink pelts and lower prices," says Clouston. "World production which was 5,500,000 its in 1954 skyrocketed to 19,- 0,000 last year. Europeans,! who came over here to buy mink furs 15 years ago, were able to export 5,000,000 pelts to North America in 1962." | Pelts that brought from $18) pounds of feed is needed to sus+ months from bitth to pelting. AFFECTS FISHERMEN The pothead scarcity also is having an effect on fishermen in the Trinity and Bonavista bay areas. In 1956, an excep- tional year, fishermen took some 14,000 potheads yielding hearly 7,000,000 pounds of meat and fat. This raw material put more than $200,000 in the pockets of the fishermen and others taking part in the pothead drive. Whale meat that year was cheap and also available for ex- port. Nfld. (CP) Mink ranching in wri a mink through the six Since then the pothead harv- est has been declining each year. There were only four drives in 1963, with 183 whales yielding 156,000 pounds of meat for mink. Of these, 164 were potheads. One factor in the smaller catch is that squid, the main diet of pothead whales, has been scarce in Newfoundland |watens in recent years. Another factor may be the method of hunting. There are fishermen who agree with Skip- per Nath Smith of Norman's Cove, Trinity Bay, who says "the noisy and spectacular method used to snare the pot heads has kept them from re- turning to the coves and har- bors along the coast."
