Wednesday y February 22.— Safety Camp. Got away 
at 10 again : surface fairly heavy : dogs going badly. 
The dogs are as thin as rakes ; they are ravenous and 
very tired. I feel this should not be, and that it is evi- 
dent that they are underfed. The ration must be increased 
next year and we must have some properly thought out 
diet. The biscuit alone is not good enough. Mcares is 
excellent to a point, but ignorant of the conditions here. 
One thing is certain, the dogs will never continue to drag 
heavy loads with men sitting on the sledges ; we must all 
learn to run with the teams and the Russian custom
