Musk OK Raising Is Expensive Business
tBy Vern Haughland)


 James, assistant director of the fish and Wildlife service, said tC- day that agency is making an in ventory-at lonely Nunivak is land. north of the Aleutians-of the nations only musk OK herd
 Whatever the outcome, James added, the government does not look with favor upon the musk OK raising business in general.
 To the three governors, two rep resentatiVeS and scores of other individuals who have asked about animals with which to start cxper- imental herds, the fish and wild life service, on the basis of it's own experience, has dispatched form letter reply which says, flatly.
 Tt is entirely impracticable to raise musk oxen as a farm or commercial enterprise, and any at { tempt to do so should be regarded only as an expensive experiment almost certain of failure" Congress appropriated S40,000 in 1880 for the purchase of musk 1 oxen with which to repopulate Alaska, once the home of thou sands of the clumsy beasts which combine the characteristics of cat i tie and sheep.
 i Captured in Greenland, 34 oxen were shipped via Norway to New York, transported to Seattle by rail, and released eventually on a 4,0O0-acre pasture near Fairbanks Six years later, when the herd had dwindled to 31, it was remov- ed to Nunivak, 25 miles off the mouth of the Yukon. out of the reach of bears and wolves. There, on a million-acre sub-Arctic ranch 40 miles wide, and 70 miles long, conditions appeared ideal for rapid population growth.
 During the war years, the gov ernment had no time for Nunivak taking.
 In 1945 an aerial survey indi- cated that, unless too many ami mals were counted twice, the herd might have increased to l15. Last year clouds, fog and rough water interferred with boat and plane travel, and only 30 oxen could be found.
 To date, the project has cost an estimated S125,000.
 James told reporter that Doug las Gray of Juneau, Frank Beals of Kodiak, flyway biologist Charles Gillham, and Alaska sour dough Frank Glaser, flew to Nuni- yak in an amphibian plane in July, to start the first thorough survey since before the war The other men were to remain month, but Glaser will stay on in- definitely possibly until next spring. His companions: an Indian service agent, few natives-and the musk oxen.
 The fish and Wildlife service drafted its form letter about musk OK last year after explorer Vilh- jalmur Stefannson stirred interest in the project with a magazine ar ticle recommending the animals to New England farmers as fine source (no barns necessary of ob ,,.;llr ...al ..a1 ,l

Radio should provide a flow of

Soap operas are not the only
