Near Boring sea a certain number have been last every year because they are foolish enough to fly over the water and ultimately to settle there and drown. This tragedy has been observed frequently between St. Michael and the mouth of the Yukon. But Is is a regular thing and results in only limited loss annually. Last summer was bad for breeding, 70 be sure. but this does not account for the absence of the old birds this win- ter even if no young at all were matched.
 The probable explanation of this winters lack of ptarmigan Is that they have migrated. News has been received from pr. French on Bristol bay that this winter there are mill lions and millions of the birds there. He writes tha. never have natives or whites seen so many In that section and every body is living high as a consequence.
 It Is plain from the doctors letter and from previous knowledge of the Alaska peninsula that this enormous host of birds is not normal to that section. They have gone there from other parts of Alaska just as about 30 years ago they deserted the lower Yukon country absolutely. as is tes- tifled to by white men who lived there then and kept log. There are no available records of Seward pen insula and the other sections men, toned above bu. there are native traditions of years when no birds were to be found.
 No explanation is going to be of ferei here as to why ptarmigan should all of a sudden take a notion to mi grate. It would be as idle as to .ry to explain why locusts make their ap- pearance every seventeen years. But the fact is that the ptarmigan Is migratory bird. It breeds in one place and spends the winter elsewhere, sometimes hundreds of miles from his breeding place.
 There are two kinds of ptarmi- gan, those that breed on barren lands and those that breed in the moun- tains, at or near he tops. The lat ter are often called rock, or mountain ptarmigan, and are more widely dis tributed than the former as they are found all over the nor. Inland and way down in the states. Those that are matched on the barren lands are call ed tundra ptarmigan and while not so widely distributed are more plenti- full In tho sections where they do abound. They are larger thaa the rocks and lack a mark on the head which the latter have.
 Wren the snows of winter come the broods join together in fiocks and seek places where they can find will lows, blrches and cottonwoods 70 feed on. Those on the mouptains are forced to seek the valleys or draws where food can be found. Those on the tundra must seek spots where at least willows grow. That Is why the edge Of the timbered section from

The ptarmigan mystery will get cleared up after while. Which is to say that when all the facts are in the averge woodsman will be in fair position to determine why these Arc- tic quail are not 70 be found in thier accustomed hauats this winter.
 That there are practically no ptar- migan on Seward peninsula Is now beyond cavil. It is likewise beyond dispute that -he Norton bay country. lower Yukon, Iditarod, Innoko. and Koyukuk regions have no great focks this winter as has formerly been the case with the exception of one year somewhere about 1888. Other sec- tions are also reported to have been deserted by these birds.
 Several, explanations have been of- fered by natives and white men of the disappearance of these birds. It has been said that many of them perished in the big storm of a year ago hat the heavy and early snow of year ago killed them off, that last sum- .mer was not favorable for breeding, that they were blown out to sea and that they had migrated. It has also been proposed to ask somebody or other in Washington 70 explain the matter which in our opinion is an ut terly useless procedure unless there is somebody there who knows more about ptarmigan than we have seen printed so far in government bull letins. Knowledge of p.armigan can be obtained only by observation on the part of someone and there are more people in Alaska qualified to speak with authority on the subject of our ptarmigan than there are ia Wash ington so far at least as their habits are concerned.
 Now, as for the reasons urged to explain the dirth of rtarmigan in the uiSli iC ~S laSAbioucds II OC SoANt that they are all without value ex- cept one. The big storm did not kill many, nor did the severe cold nor the deep SHOWS. The ptarmigan pro- tects himself in The snow from the wind, the cold and the blizzard. He burrows in, having filled his craw with willow buds or twig ends, and stays there sometimes for two or three days. Seldom does he get caught in a place where the snow piles up In drifts 30 as to bury him too deep to crowd his way out. He seems to have an instinct that leads him to select a spo: where the snow settles in nor mal quantities It is certain that only a few ptarmigan perish In the worst storm because of this ability to se- lect a favorable spo: to burrow into the snow.
