There are in existence only two i'm.
portant herds of fur seals, one Of
which has its breeding grounds in the
Commander islands, belonging to Rus
sia, the other in the Pribilof islands,
belonging to the United States. OF
these the latter is much the larger.
The Pribilof islands are government
property, and thus it happens that
the United States government finds
itself the owner of by far the most
valuable herd of fur seals in the
world. This unique bit of property
has been a source of much tribula-
