Snow shoes and dog teams are the order Of the day Ne are catch ing many fine fish now in the Nu- lato river a branch of the Yukon. We fish through holes in the ice and use a bone hook with a Lit of red flannel on the hook. The fish is attracted by the white and sWal- lows it. Ne have fish nearly eV cry day Of the week.
 With the coming Of winter the mails have about stopped, and no magazines win reach us for a long time. We do not know much of the happenings of the outside world, as the press items We get over the wire less come in a very compressed syn opsis.
 We'll, no more time now, the dog team mail sleigh leaves soon-if you need any cold breezes let me know as l am in a position to please any one in the blizzard line, little or big, with frills or without, rain, sleet or plain snow, as We have all kinds Of freakish weather here on the Yukon. Regards to Arkansas folks. As ever,
