Elktooth John, OF Montana, Controls
the Market.

John D. Losekamp, OF Montana. has
only 10000 teeth left, says the New
York World.
ElEtooth John. as he is sometimes
called. has for % years been buying
the molars OF eIks. until a short time
ago he was the possessor of 10000
clks' teeth.
He IS the 'elktooth king of Mon
tana, II not of the entire west. He
corners the market and turns Il loose
at pleasure. He IS the head OF a kind
o; elk-toOth trust. against which no
small potato in tie elktooth line may
hope to buck successfully.
Losekamp formerly bought dresses
from the Indians. the dresses being
decorated sometimes with 500 teeth.
any hunter with elk teeth in his pos,
session was sure OF n purchaser in
Losekamp.
But he cannot buy them any more
and make a reasonable profit, for any
Crow Indian nowadays knows the
yalue of an elk tooth.
Losekanp is d~isposing Of his teeth
to 4 firm in the east at the rate of
100 and 500 a month. The firm takes
them for watch fob0 for members OF
the society OF ElkS.
