who came ont in the Janquin in 1911, and has
been in the Hudson Bay Company's service for
many years, that as late as 1887 the bul1aloe were
found IN great numbers about Fort Hall and had been
seen as low down as Fort Baise. They have now re-
tired hundreds of miles from the Fort From the
point where we saw the first, to the point where we
saw the last bullaloe on Platte, it was only about
one hundred miles; and from the point where we
met the first, to the point where we saw the last
buffaloe on Sweetwater, was about the same dis
tance; so that out OF a Journey of two thousand
miles through wild unsettled country, only saw
the bualoe two hundred miles. In few years
there will be none seen the route between this
country and the United States In the mountains,
bordering upon Bear River, elk and grisly bear are
iound IN considerable numbers, at some points; but
we had no time to hunt them. Antelope are also
seen in considerable numbers in the Bear River
valley but Platte and Sweetwater ailord game IN
the greatest abundance. AT Fort Hall, Snake River,
(Which at all points is clear rapid stream over a
pebbly on rocky bed,) Is about two hundred yards
wide perhaps more The WIDE plain, upon which
this ford stands, is black, rich mould, and produ-
immense crops OF fine grass. This fort Is lnte-
rior in size and construction to those at Larimu
but the amount OF business done here Is no doubt
immense. Your friend,

people from the Western States, who in time will be
