PROTECTION OF SEAL
INCREASES HERDS

VANCOUVER, B. c., April A
conservative estimate places the
number Of fur seals in the North
Pacific at 100000, aa compared with
only 10000 when the government
adopted protective measures in 1911,
and the Indians predict a good hunt
ing season. The original body, be-
fore white men depleted it, has been
estimated at five million animals.
About the time that the spring
salmon are at the height of their
runs on the west coast of Vancouver
Island, the fur seals of the Pacific
swim northwtrd along the shore,
bound for the rooleries or the Al
eutian and Pribiloff Islands. The
west coast Indians thereupon quit
salmon fishing to seek the valuable
pelt-bearing animals.
No white man may catch The seals,
but the Dominion government, when.
agreeing to stop seal-huntipg, in
sisted that the coast lndlans, VINO
had made part of their living from
these creatures for many gEnera-
tions, should continue to have the
right to seal during the spring migra,
ton of the herds. The red men must,
however, continue to use the print
tive spears and methods of heir fore
fathers. No guns may be employed.
Even under these restrictions the
west coast Indians collect usually
about $4,000 from the creatures.
Last season was a bad one, as he
seals passed north far at sea on ac-
count Of severe storms, ana the In
dams in the cockIesheu canoes and
small fishing boats could no. venture
out as far as the new line of mi
gration,@
