In

Columbia,
the
trappers
there
are
far
better

In

than
'
they
are
In

according
to

Ur.
Redmond
met
many
trappers
In
the
Mattrrland
and
they
all
agreed
that
the
supply
of

is
Increasing
since
the
aw
regulations
went
into

The
aw
regulataona
provide
that

in
the
proslace.
The
result
of
this
ruling
Is,
the
trappers
toiss
the
prospector,
that
the
old
method
of
killing
off
everything
In
the
country
in

to
"mals

Is
now
dying
out.
In

ii
rapidly
as
possible.
It'a
different
now.
Each
trapper
looks
upon

as
a

Instead
of
trying
to
catch
as

of

that

Trappers
have
even
been
known
to
set
traps
at
some
distance
from
beaver
darns
on
their
tinea,
so
that

will
