Country Astounding In All Kinds OF
Game Dear TO the Sportsman.
The shooting in the valleys of Brit
tsh Columbia is most a1luring to those
who are fond of the sport. Caribou,
deer, bear, prairie chicken and part-
RIGGS abound in them. In all prob

white man first saw them, and though
the beaver and the sea otter, the mar
ten and those foxes whose fnrs are
coveted by the rich, are not as abun-
dant as they once were, the rest of the
game is most plentiful.
On the Rockies and ON the Coast
range the mountain goat, most difi-
cult of beasts to hunt and still harder
to get, is abundant yet. The ssbig
horn, or mountain sheep, is not SO
common, but the hunting thereof is
usually successful if good guides are
obtained The cougar, the grizzly
and the lynx are all plentiful, and
black and brown bears are very nu-
merous. Elk are going the way of

Timber in theNorthwest.

The great timber resources of the
Pacific Northwest can scarcely be
realized by those who have not
visited the immense forests of giant
trees growing so close together in
many places that it is almost impOs-
sible to travel through the woods.
Twenty million acres of land are GOV.
cred with growth Of wood which
will cut an average of $4,000 feet of
merchantable lumber. Much of it
will cut an average of 100, 900 feet or
more, while single trees are common
that will cut 5000 feet each. The
Port Townsend Leader estimates the
quantity Of merchantable lumber
standing in the forests of Washington
at 160, 900, 900, 600 sufficient to
supply all the markets of America for
generations, and yet send fleets laden
with ship timbers to every part of the
civilized world. Oregon, in the
Coast and Cascade ranges, and in the
counties along the ocean from the
Columbia River to the California
line, has as much more timber, and
these two great sister States, unless
devastated by forest fires, will never
run short of building material.
