• | “HAZEL" RETURN* FROM
TRIP NORTH
i Late uMonday/eveninir the Bioloui
i cal Survey schooner "Hazel” return
ed to Nome from an extended trip
| into the Kotzebue Sound nr.d Kobuk
! River sections. The Hazel left
Nome July 3rd with L. J. Palmer, in
charge of the Reindeer Experiment
Station and FVanlf Dufresne. U. S.
Fur and Game Warden. Guests
aboard included Mr. and Mrs. Alfred
Loraeu and Miss Helen. Loinen.
The first stop was made at Deer
ing Next came Keewalik and Can
dle and finally at the mouth of the
Buck land River, Palmer and the
Lomen’s left the boat to take charge
of a round up of 7,000 reindeer.
Fur Warden Dufresne continued on
to ('hamisso Islands with the Hazel
where he photographed and took a
census of this ricky little island
where approximately half a million
sea parrots, morres and klttlwakes
have their summer homes. A pair
each of the different birds nesting
were gathered by Dufresne. also a
collection of eggs was made.
On July 19th the schooner arriv
ed at Kotzebue where Dufresne be
gan a systematic checking up on fur
buyers and traders with a view to
securing more adequate laws and a
stricter enforcement of them than
these people have been accustomed
to know. Palmer interviewed num~
| erous reindeer owners and gathered
I a large variety of reindeer mosses
land lichens. He also demonstrated
: proper methods of handling reindeer
preventing diseases and suggested a
[ number of ways for the natives to
I improve their increasing herds.
; Nearly every village in the whole
| Kobuk and Selawak country was
j visited. Wildfowl were not as plem
J tiful as in previous years owing to
j heavy southeast storms of the mi
i gratory season driving the birds far
I into the interior but the Fut Ward
| en was very much pleased with the
j last year’s, fur catch. . Statistics
, gathered by him are revealed in
I the following table.
Kind of Fur.
i Red Fox .
| Cross Fox
, Blue Fox .
Silver Fox
, Muskrat . .
j Weasel . . .
I Beaver ..
.68,050
50.379. .$169,021
In answer to a widespread appeal
i thru that section Dufresne hopes to
I secure a Spring open season on
Muskrats and to prevent winter trap i
* pine which results in a big waste of j
j fur thru destruction of the houses.!
| The white fox season will likely be j
changed to December first as many i
| of the November fox are still blue
j and worth less than half what they I
, would be a month later.
! At Elephant Point the Warden
j secured many prehistoric bones at j
j the edge of a glacier and among
| others a nearly complete skull of a j
| Paleolithic BuaJo with both horns;
! intac. This is considered a rare
j find; nothing quite like it has even
been reported heretofore. No hom
ed animal walks the earth today ap
proaching this mighty creature in
size. Dufreene will have this ikuH
on hand a few days before crating
for Washington and will be glad to
show It to those Interested.
Palmer stopped to at Diomede Is
lands and surveyed the island with
hopes of placing a few - reindeer
there for the natives but states that
owing to the precipitous, rocky
slopes and absence of winter moss
that it will be impossible.
The Hazel will be to Nome for
a few days only. Her next trip hi to
Nunivak Island where Mr. Palmer
has some experiments to make in
tbe cross breeding of Woodland Gar
iboa from McKinley Park whh the
native reindeer.

Alaska Road Commission states that
the framing of the structure of the
New Bridge across Nome River will
lake place here in Nome and be
moved to the place of erection In
sections Ihus facilitating the work
of construction to a great extent.
Iron Creek will also receive a new

devoting every moment of bis time
to the reparing of the many differ
ent wagon roads as well as to the
work of the rehabilitating of the
railroad. Osborne Creek road will
receive repairs now very soon and it
will be only a very short time when
autoists can have the pleasure of
motoring over many different roads
instead of having to remain on one
road all the time. Dexter Creek
road is also to receive more atten

viently transferred from one sec
