a It should be said in regard to winter transportation that horses are gradually replacing dogs in 
|all parts of Alaska. The dog is theoretically cheaper to feed than the horse. He gives more trouble, 
is more likely to give out on the trail, and experience has shown that in regions where horse feed can 
be obtained, and where much sledding is done, horses are cheaper. 
Circle- Fairbanks packing rates. — The town of Circle, being the 
nearest point on Yukon River to the placer districts of Birch Creek 
and Fairbanks, has some importance, especially in winter, as a dis- 
tributing center for those districts. The rates for packing in summer 
by horses and in winter by dog sleds from Circle are given in table 24.
