Mr. Terhune, who presided at
the meeting, called on Mr. Shel
ilenbarger to tell his mind on the
subject of trapping, which he did
in a clear and comprehensive way.
He said the trapping season is far
too short and should be extended,
that there is no danger of the
fur bearing animals being extermi
nated, that food for them is short,
there not being any rabbits in
the country at present as in past
years. If 50 of these little ani
mals could be planted in the open,
there would be, in two years, plenty
* of food for fur bearers. When
these are missing the ptarmigan
are also gone. He stated the past
| two years had been lean for the
! trappers, as their catches were
| light, but the game is not trapped
out—the season is too short—and
this work is no detriment to the
country. Many trappers are in
the Interior at their trap lines to
remain, and have their families i
with them, have radios, gardens,!
! etc. One man stated that in his
| opinion the trappers should be
! given the land by the government
| when they had lived on it for sev
| eral years, built cabins on their
Strap lines, as well as other neces
jsary buildings, cleared land and
jmade gardens, etc.
The visiting gentlemen asked
numbers of questions; the aver
ages of different years on various
:furs; which lines they specialized
in; about the trapping in breed
ing season, and about things. Mr.
Shelenbarger said it was his choice
to class mink first and muskrats
second.
Robert Bragaw, as president of
the Alaska Guides, Inc., said he
saw 27 moose and 25 calves on the
Kenai Peninsula last winter and
s | he thinks these are increasing as
! well as the beaver,
j A reresentative of the American
| Legion spoke to emphasize what
j others had said, and he pleaded
; for extension of the trapping sea
json, as did also a spokesman for
11 the Veterans of Foreign Wars.
The vistors seemed much inter
ested in matters presented and it
is devoutly to be hoped that last
ing good will come of this meeting.
