All reports coming in indicate that there will he an abundance of fox and mink this winter in various sections of the Seward Peninsula. Not in years have fox been so pl2n- tiful and this plenty is in marked contrast to the lack of ptarmigan and the failure of the rabbits Further another interesting fact in connection with Arctic animal life here is that field mice and moles were never so abundant. Their mounds are literally to be seen everywhere. AS these furnish the foxes with food, their plentiful ness also means that the fox will be fat and plentiful also. Old tim CTS explain the matter of the eX- cessive numbers of mice and mo!es as due to the fact that thcre have been no tundra fires, owing to the indictment weather preventing them These fires usually are very de- structive of field life and helped to overcome the normal fccundity of these animals.
