WOLF  .—Size 50X25 in . Is closely allied to the

dog tribe and, like the jackals, is found through a wide range of the world,—North and South America, Europe and Asia . Good supplies are available from North America and Siberia and a very few from China . The best are the full furred ones of a very pale bluish-grey with fine flowing black top hair, which are obtained from the Hudson Bay district . Those from the United States and Asia are harsher in quality and browner . A few black American specimens come into the market, but usually the quality is poor compared to the lighter furred animal . The Siberian is smaller than the North American and the Russian still smaller . Besides the wolf propera large number of prairie or dog wolves from America and Asia are used for cheaper rugs . In size they are less than half that of a large wolf and are of a motley sandy colour . Numbers of the Russian are retained for home use . The finest wolves are very light weighted and most suitable for carriage aprons, in fact, ideal for the purpose, though lacking the strength of some other furs . Wolves . value 2s .
