REINDEER HERDS FURNISH
FOOD FOR THE NATIVES.
WASHINGTON, D C.. Jan. G? Two
herds of reindaer have been placed
on St Paul *nd St O?orf? J?!aTid?
of the Pilbilof it roup, where the fur
seals have their rookeries. They were
\arried there from the mainland by
1 the U. S. revenue cutter Bear, an
Kskimo herder, Oliver Angolook, ac
companying the St. Paul herd, which
consists of 21 ?>ws ami 4 bulla, most
ly young animals. The number of
Uie St. C.-oorgc herd and other par
ticulars have not been reported.
This introduction of reindeer arose
from the necessity of providing the
soai hunting natives and the govern
mont agents of the Pribilof islands
with other fresh food than that of
the linviVd number of seals they are
permitted to kill for their own sup
port, and it was recommended to the
secretary of commerce and labor, who
administers Alaskan fur-seal affair*
for the government, for the bureau
o: fisheries, which is in immediate
charge of the administration of the
fiir seal laws
The rein door were secured from the
bureau of education, department of
ibe interior, which has charge of the
<'>mostics.ted reindeer of the A)a?
K?n mainland
Mthonch large quantities of can
?i 1 meats are shipped to the inland*
the 300 Inhabitants, natives and other
wise, usually have no other fresh
meat than seals, and even that la
lbw-wnabl* only Murine a short period
>f the ye?r.
A thorough preliminary investiga
t ?>n was made jy Dr. B. W. Wcrman
in ohargp of the Alaska fisheries
=i rvlce of the bureau of fisheries,
who found that the cHmaUc and oth
r conditions on the two islands were
favorable to the project He report
* ! that the reindeer would be able
to feed on the grasses and moss**
roun<i on the islands
The introdwtiott of reindeer from
>il>eria to the mainland of Alaska
in 1 S!?2. and their subsequent domes
ioaUon, have proved of immense val
ie t> the Alaskan natives; therefore,
t is expected that the herds taken
| to the I*ribi)of islands will prove
equally valuable The flesh and milk
ire utilised as food, and the skins
*re good for clothing. The horns and
i i:oofs of the animals can also be us
?d. usually being worked up into use
ful and ornamental articles It is
ilso believed that the deer will jat.
j ? r on be of great value as aids to
. ra^sportation.
The reindeer were flipped from
| St. Mich'tel. Alaska. Although youn*
'.luals, all of them wer* a.iuH.?, and
it is exp'pcted all the cows will fawn
? i?'*t spring. Since landing, they hav
j ranced the Island pretty widely, near
ly reaching the extreme western end.
h?it have not gone close to the vil
lage.
The latest report of M. C. Marsh,
the resident naturalist, state*: "The
-4 deer ;\re now together and nearly
dU of Uiem In fine condition and
feeing well. There is no evidence
that the deer are in any way dis
turbing the fur-soais."

Many letters of inquiry are received
