Extinction of Animal in This
Country.

Thrr" are, according to estimates
made by the National Sport SIncn,
about lU,UuO elk in this country, of
which 2.2oo are in captivity in 10 diff
f"r"ni places. The largest herd, num-
herring. according to the government
census. between 10000 and 1000, is
in the Yellowstone region. In the
summer ih"S" ,ik range in the vicinity
Of III" continental divide i'll the park.
Sine" the settlement of the valleys the
elk which are forced to descend from
Til" mountains in III" winter in order
10 obtain food have starved il. large
numbers. Since 1909 winter feeding
has been provided by the state Of
Wyoming and the federal government.
and recently congress appropriated
SJD.iO for The purchase of 1000 acreS
near Jackson. Wyo.. where sufficient
hay can be raised each year to feed
the herds during the winter. During
late years the government has expert
mrntrd with small herds numbering
about 100. which have been transferred
to II different STATES for the purpose
of restocking reservations. In this

The Adirondnck herd WAS rapidly ap-

elk in country which is unfit for farm
