DR. DUTTON IN TOWN
Dr. Dutton, for 25 years a resident
of the Lake Clarke country, was
among the arrivals on the M. S. Dis.
coverer, which arrived in port last
night from Iliamna. Dr. Dutton, who
is probably .the best known of the old.
timers in that region, is going to the
States for a year. He is stopping at
the Overland hotel prior to his depart.

Mrs. Alma R. King, the pocket edi
tion from New York City says; “I
was first disappointed—wanted to
turn back, but since the great pano.
rama of our frontiersland along the
Gulf of Alaska has been unfolded *o
me, with its unsurpassed beauty,
growing upon me from day to day -
1 want to go on, and on, and on.”

means that constant pen and kennel
sanitation must be practised.
i
Constant and complete control of
i the stock is the only common sense
rule to practice. The matter of in
breeding is another important factor
in correct fox ranching. Inbreeding
is one of the most effective practices
in the improvment of live stock. How
ever, unless directed with skill and
* nderstanding and followed by in
! telligent selection of the progeny,
inbreeding may have undesirable
consequences.
As Dr. Graves traveled about the
Territory visiting the fox farms hi
was daily impressed with the ever
giowing need of a small demonstra.
tion fur farm situated in the Terri
tory to serve and work on the pro
blems of the Alaskan fox and fu"
ffimers.

Because of the great size of the
Territory, Dr. Graves is unable to
stay very long at the various ranches
and some it is quite impractical to i
ifcach at all. At places where veteri
nary services might be of benefit a
limited time does not permit a suffi
cient stay to go into and give a com.!
plete course in animal husbandry.
Hence the really great need for an
experimental fur farm where practi
cal problems would be under constant
supervision and where the fur farm
ers might come with their questions
and see the school solving the pro
blems. A place where the rancher
could come and spend as much time
as he desired, studying and working
alongside the farm personnel—taking
notes—studying the compounding of
balanced rations, the treatment of
sick animals and proper handling of
roxes. Then on acquiring the infor
mation he wanted could return home
and put into practice the things he
considered to be worth while.
While in this area Dr. Graves will

ters; he will be glad to talk over the
veterinary prQblems of any fox or fur
farmer who is interested. This is a
free service established by the Terri
tory for its citizens.
