Dalrymple, chairman of direetors of the Rangitikei Co-operative Dairy Co., Ltd., returned to Neiv Zealand to-day by the Niagara. For three months he stalked game in the Yukon beyond Point Selkirk. A member of a par// of four hunters, Mr Dalrymple made the trip into the interior on foot, dogs being used to carry packs of equipment in much the same^maimer as horses are utilised for transport in rugged sections of the bush country in New Zealand. The weather was bitterly cold, and with the party seeking only first-class trophies, long periods of careful stalking were a tax on the members' endurance. The party's patience was Tewarded by several excellent trophies. One large moose that was shot had an antler spread of 63 inches.
