Disappearance of
 Animals and Birds

]. NJ. Smith, who trapped some on the Kuskokwim this winter, told the Fairbanks Northern Light that furs are scarce. Most of the trappers have not made expenses Mir. Smith does not believe in the migration theory. He thinks the fur animals have been trap ped out.
 Whatever the cause, from all over interior Alaska and adjacent Canadian territory the story is the same; fur is scarce. There are some peculiar feat ures of the matter, however, that the 'trapped-out" theory fails to explain.
 Marten and other furred creatures of this country feed extensively on mice; and it is said the mice have practically disappeared. Ptarmigan are another favorite diet for the furred animals; and they are all gone Rabbits, preyed on by every kind of meat eater, held their own against enormous odds, but have at last had their number greatly reduced by disease.
 In fact, from causes known and un- known great stretches of country seem to have become devoid of animal life altogether It k said one may spend days in the woods without even seeing a camp bird. Formerly there was scarce ly night in winter, and especially at this particular season, that owls could not be hcaid hootiug from several direc- tion-, but they are not heard any more.
 It may hc that inc different creatures are SD dependent one species upon the other that disaster to one family is con segucutial tp all
