"The country did not suit either US or
the reindeer. IL was cold enough, but IL
was different i'm other ways. The deer
did not get the same things to eat that
they did In Lapland, and they did not get
the same treatment. M
h'Whpn we arrived In Alaska the deer
were distributed, and each of us went
with a certain number TO certain place.
The men who worked with us did not
know the habits OF the animals, and could
