In 1919 ii was reported that there
were $40 600 animals in the herd. In
1910 when the government first took
over the operation of the island in
dustry. there were fewer than 2O00OO.
During the time when l.this increase
was taking place enough surplus and
useless males have been killed and
their skins sold mt auction TO provide
the national treasury With $500 900

The purpose of the census is chiefly
TO determine how many animals can
be safely removed each year and still
provide for a maximum percentage of
increase of the herd. If the increase
i'm 1920 continues as heretofore. it is
said that there should be about 100000
