Newspapermen who hurried to the

At this point, George was told that

door and anxious to correct any mis-
takes which might exist in the police
report given TO the newspapers.
Sundays answer was "A quick rc-

FUR REGULATIONS FOR THIRD DISTRICT OF ALASKA FOR
 2S-f004,

Marten. Land Otter, Mink, and w. asel. Nov. 18th to March S1st.
 Muskrst. May lst to June 1eth.
 Lynx. Fox, Dee. lst to March 3fsf
 Beaver. Sea Otter, Closed Season. Bear (black. glacier. cnnamon), wolf. wolverine. squirrel, marmot, (whistler) snowshoe and Arctic Hare. are unprotected.
 Three changes are noteworthy in the above:
 F1RST-The fox season has been advanced to December 1st and ex- tended to March 31st. This is to prevent the great influx of unprime skins into the hands of the traders during the early days of the open season. We estimate that the mon ey value of the fox catch can be increased more than 1O% by giv- irg the animals 15 days more to mature before trapping.
 The advisability of prescribing different open seasons for white fox and red fox was discussed, but the habits and ranges of the two species are too closely associated to allow of this.
 SECOND-The change in the muskrat season is radical and, we believe. efficacious.
 The long midwinter season is not wanted either by trappers or trad CTS. It leads to a destruction Of houses and runaways that would certainly exterminate the rat If long continued. The forty days open season at the breakup gives the hunter chance to select and shoot the finest rats at time when their pelage has reached it's highest point of excellence.
 THlRD-The season is closed or Beaver. The trapper forced this issue upon himself by a wholesale destruction of beaver houses during the two years open season granted.
