Tho Shield boys, whogwere with me, I and who were among the very first to engage in the seal-hunting industrv. say that they have never in-their er rfcrience seen more seals than on that trip of" ours. The only trouble was that we were too late in the season to work; the weather was so rough that we could not put down a boat. I would like to know how Professor Elliot would go to work to form any estimate of numbers., 'The seal aro like (he Fraser river salmon in one way; you might rind none at all one day and millions the uext. This talk about the extermina tion of thcseals reminds me of the salmon in another way. Yon know how many thousands of these fish aro captured every year; well docs it af fect tho supply?
