BARLOW COVE DEER
 REPORTED IN NEED
 OF FORAGE RELIEF

Deer in the Barlow Cove area are apparently suffering from a food shortage. according to reports brought here by Capt Martin Holtz, of the gasboat Wilson, it was an- nounced today by H. ". Terhunc, Executive Officer of the Alaska Game Commission. In a recent trip, Capt. Holtz put into Barlow Cove and saw number of deer feeding on kelp and seaweed, and which seemed to be in bad shape.
 The snow there was reported to be very deep and the animals were evidently unable to uncover suffi- cient forage for their needs. Capt. Holtz and his crew will call in there on their next voyage and cut down some trees for forage.
 Other small, isolated inlets may be experiencing similar conditions in the northern end of the dis trict, MT Terhune said, although no reports have been received tc that effect. Generally, however the deer herds seem to be winterine fairly well and conditions are about normal. Some of the older buck, are reported to be dying off, unablC to stand the snow conditions, bui the younger animals. does anc lawns seem to be surviving without serious casualties.
