He will make his first stop at Sum Dunn and continue from there via various island ranches to Peterp- burg.
 Dr. Graves has already visited a number of ranches in this an I the Sitka districts, observed hun dreds of animals and started a study of ranching methods, in. cluding feeding and breeding. which he expects to continue for at least two years and to include all sections of the Territory in which the fur-farming industry has been established.
 On his present trip he will yisi; as many ranches as possible. He will depend on the individual ranchers for transportation be- tween the island farms, hoping in this manner to cover many more ranches than would be possible by using regularly established transportation routes. He return ed here early this week from Sitka and conferred with Gov. George A. Parks on the extensio., of his survey. He said he was not yet in position to announce any definite conclusions and would not be until he had obtain. ed all of the available data.
