Rex Beach Likes
 Alaska Hunting

"Id rather hunt bear in Alaska than anything else in the world,' was the answer that Rex Beach gave to this rather pointed question.
 Alaska offers black, brown and grizzly bear. Its brown bear ranks in lsize with any in the world. In fact, as an all-round bear country, Alaska ranks first.
 "On one occasion I shot one of these lbig brown boys that measured 12 feet from tip to tip.
 Another time was within 40 feet lof two of them. had with me an automatic rifle. My guide carried a camera. I looked at the two bears and unhesitatingly decided that as ar as was concerned shooting brown bears wasn't h that particular days sport. My guide snapped a picture" !" .,, Big game hunters will probably be interested in the fact that MT. Beach lis very. kindly disposed to the lever action rifle. Not only does he favor that particular action, but when he goes hunting, especially for Alaskan brown bear, he totes "a rifle that car ries terrific shocking power and 250 grains of lead
 For my second choice in hunting will take the fast flying duck
 "As for fishing give me the brook trout on a fly, those pound or pound nd-a-half babies in fast water
 "I like all kinds of fishing, but from a sportive standpoint I'd rather catch one nice fast-wyater brook trout on a fly than five bass on bait rod. ;
 Seldom indeed does the average duck hunter have the good fortune to shoot a goose. It may surprise you to know that Beach cares comparatively title for goose hunting.
 ''The birds are too big a target for
 ne reason, and they are too fine a bird for another. When fellow
 hoots a pair of geese he may be kill ing off the progenitors who have beer mated for probably fifty years" he says.
 The wild goose is not poygamous.

Fox farming has become one of the leading industries of the Third Diyis-
 on. Investments reaching several hundred thousand dollars are report ed in several cases, while hundreds of smaller fur farmers are involved to the extent of from five to fifteen thousand. Probably the largest in- dividual fox farms are owned by An drew Grosvold of Sand Point, who now has thirteen islands leased anu employs little army of natives an.l whites to run these farms. It is fasci- hating though hard work and highly remunerative. AS most of the islands to the east and south have been taken up the business is gradually working toward the western islands, which are particularly adapted to fur farming owing to the abundance of feed. The only drawback is timber, the far wes- tern islands being devoid of trees with the exception of small willows and brush.-valdsz Miner.

First Aid Now Required for
 The Seamen
APPLICANTS FOR LICENSES
 MUST UNDERGO RIGID % EXAMINATION N'- '-

The Secretary of Commerce has approved an amendment to the gen. eral rules and regulations prescribed by the Board of Supervising Inspec- tors which requires that no candidate for original license as master, mate, pilot or engineer shall be examined unless he has completed a course of instruction in first aid approved by the United States Public Health Ser vice and has passed an oral examina- tion based on a Manual on Ship Sani- tation and First Aid recently prepared by the Public Health Service.
 "The manual is intended primarily" says an announcement by the Health Service, ito furnish officers and men of the American Merchant Marine a simple but comprehensive textbook on ship sanitation and hygiene, an out line of surgical and fundamental in- formation regarding the treatment of disease. The information contained in the manual will be of greatest val ue to officers and men of vessels that do not carry ships doctor and lack of facilities for the care of the sick and injured.
 Sanitary conditions on shipboard are in many instances, not what they should be-conditions that are due largely to ignorance regarding the el- ementary rules of sanitation and hy- giene Aside from the humanitarian point of view, it is highly desirable from an economic view point that the sanitary conditions be improved. Yes sells are often compelled to run short handed because of illness among mem- bers of the crew that could have been avoided by simple medical tratment or by the application of simple funda- mental knowledge. It was because of these conditions that the Secretary of Commerce approved the amendment tc the regulations requiring that candi- dats for original licenses as master mate, pilot or engineer have first aid knowledge.
 Preventative medicine marks sig nal advancement in general public health work, and just as the dissemi- nation of its principles has made for improved conditions of life on land the same practice should contribute toward improvement in sanitation and hygiene on shipboard."

IF WOLVES ARE DESTROYED
 CARIBOU BECOME NUMEROUS

Caribou are so numerous in the re, zion around Ruby, Alaska, where the Arctic circle crosses the territory, that if the wolves were suddenly extermi- mated the present population of Alas ka could not eat the surplus and the country would soon be overrun with these upland and forest deer.
 This is the opinion of Carl E. Sund- trom, United States Commissioner at luby.
 According to Sundstrom the caribou are now off for the northern summer
 eeding grounds. The migration from their winter quarters south of the Churchill river to the tundras and harrens began unusually early this year because of mild winter. The northern trek of these animals means to the Alaskan that spring is at hand
 The government official when ask
 d concerning the reports of immense herds moving up and down the coun-
 ry twice each year declared that the numbers are not exaggerated. Resi- dents of Ruby last fall were awakened when he movement southward passed a few miles east of that place by the thunderous noise of so many sharp hoofs upon the frozen earth. The val leys and hills are often gray with moving masses of caribou.-Gateway.
