LABRADOR MOSQUITOES.
Terrible Pest to Travellers and Natives
In the Northand.

No account of travel In Labrador can
be complete without some mention of
the terrible pest of mosquitoes. These
were always present in immense
swarms from the beginning Of our trip
to the end, and sometimes they made
life almost unbearable.
Nothing could be heard but their
buzzing. Whenever we attempted to
eat they were down our throats and
in our eyes and faces, and in spite of
our head nets and fly dope we were
always badly bitten. The natives
seemed to mind them almost as much
as we did, their remedy being rancid
seal oil. l am satisfied that were one
so unfortunate as to be caught out at
night without protection he would be
either crazy or dead by morning.
Our tents were provided with a fine
mesh bobbinet inner tent, but some
would always find their way inside or
come up from the ground. At times
our light so attracted them we went
outside to see If 1t were not raining,
for the constant tapping Of the mos
quitoes against the canvas sounded so
exactly like rain that it was impossible
to tell the difference.
On many nights had to give up the
observation Of stars for latitude and
longitude because q candle could not
be kept lit long enough to adjust the
artificial horizon. We unfortunately
had no chimney, and the mosquitoes
swarmed so thickly that without this
protection the fame was quickly
smothered. There were but few nights
cool enough to afford us any relief,
We found that 1t required tempera-
ture within a few degrees of actual
freezing to subdue them.-Forest and
