For a number of years we have been garnering statistics of the best trapshooting teams of the East and West and in doing this we have quite overlooked the professionals of the same sections
 This oversight was brought to our attention by one of the shooting sales men, and in an effort to appease the wrath of the professionals who have been sighted for years we have groped through the figures and un- covered the high ten men of the East and the West, and we know that the Western contingent will be glad to know that the East came off second best.
 In the four years we have figured the amateur averages of the highes shooters of the East and West each section has triumphed twice As a usual thing there was but fraction of target difference yearly. With the pros the Western crew averaged one broken more in every hundred -on 37,000 targets-than the Eastern shooters.

LAST YEARS SEAL
 FUR EXPORTS WERE
 NOT INCLUDED HERE

A large part of the vast increase in the value of furs shipped from Alaska in 1918 over the figures foi 1917. as shown in the annual report of Acting Collector of Customs Charles D. Garfield, is explained by the circumstance that in 1917 there was no report received at the customs house of the skins of the fur seals killed by the Government on the Pribiloff Islands in 1917. It is due also, to the increased shipments and the higher prices received from else where in Alaska. All varieties o furs brought higher prices in 1911 than in 1917. and there was greater activity among those engaged in the fur industry.
 The annual reports of the Customs Collector for Alaska for 1917 and 1918 show the fur exports of Alasks for 1917 to be $379.500. and foI 1918 to be s2,2S1.7S2.
