A spe cial to the New York Herald from

Moccasined Dogs.

From the New England Farmer.
In Alaska even dogs wear shoes-at least
part of the time. 1t is not on account OF
the cold, for shaggy Eskimo dog will
live and be frisky when a man would freeze
to death. The dog does all the work OF
dragging and carrying which in this coun-
try falls to the horses, and in trotting over
the rough ice Of the mountain passes his
feet soon become bruised and sore. Their
his driver makes him soft little moccasins
of buckskin or reindeer skin, and ties them
on with stout thongs of leather. In this
way he will travel easily. until his feet are
thoroughly healed up: then he bites and
tears his shoes with his sharp, wolf-like
teeth, and eats them up.
Wonderful animals are these dogs or
Alaska. Although they are only little fell
lows-not more than half the size Of a big
Newfoundland-they sell from s75 to $200
each more than an ordinary horse will sell
for in this country. They will draw two
hundred pounds each on sled. and they
are usually driven in teams of six. They
need no lines to guide them, for they, read

But the Eskimo dogs have their faults.
