carried on upon a paying basis. The
ordinary vicissitudes of climate which
may be expected, such as unusually
late springs or early frosts may prove
the conclusions of the government ex-
perimenters to have been fallacious.
1t would certainly be matter for
Congratulation if Alaska could be
shown to be capable Of supporting Il
considerable population, and thus be-
come a new outlet for agricultural
pioneers; and there seems to be some
slight evidence that such is the case.
The proof OF the matter, however, will
necessarily depend upon the practical
experience of actual settlers who shall
try conclusions With nature under the
conditions ordinarily prevailing in
that climate. Until 1t shall have been
shown that profitable agriculture is
possible there through a succession Of
years, with the facilities and abilities
in competition with producers living in
more favored climes, Alaska cannot be
regarded in the light of a farmers
paradise. The trend of migration dur-
ing the whole period of the known hiss
tory of mankind has been from the
rigorous North to the temperate and
more southern regions. This pheno-
menon has almost attained the dignity
or law. Even Canada sends mora
people annually to the adjacent United
States than can be induced TO immi.
crate into that country by the free Of
fer of acres quite as fertile as any that
can be bought for money within the
domains of this republic. 1t is not
very likely that the natural drift of
human migration will be reversed in
favor Of Alaska; and after the gold
fever shall have subsidized, and the
mineral resources of the country ex-
plotted, our northern possession will
revert, as Nevada iS revcrting, into its
original condition OF an uninhabited
solitude.

The New Style Of Writing.

Since vertical writing has been adj
opted in schools it has been consider
ed necessary by some to use a very
stiff and hard pen, and nearly all
the pen makers recommend pens OF
this heavy and unyeiIdiDg descrip-
ton. II il an error, however to make
them too stiff, for sufficient action
and fexibility are the essential
qualities of a perfect pen. It is we'll
known that many persons have a
tendency to grip the holder and
press too hard with the pen. This
habit can only be overcome BY using
one made with some degree of Aexi-
bility and fineness of point which
compels a lightnes of touch, and
helps towards a graceful and Gid
ing motion. Pens made properly
will be found to write smoothly, and
are suitable either for vertical or
ordinary slantjng writing.

THE RECENT SMALL POX
SCARE.
Frank Coughran, of Worthing-

Matter.


Frank Coughran; of Wo,thington,
was in Sioux Falls Saturday, and to
a Press reporter Mr.. Coughran told
an interesting story in connection
with the small pox scare which was
on in his home town for some time.
"About two months ago." said Mr..
Coughran, "a man named Stoutemy-
or, whose farm adjoins the city of
Worthington, returned from trip to
Colorado. He had not been home
more than a week before he broke
out with rash, and in a few days
he was confined to his house. DR..
Thomson, young physician, was
called and suspecting the nature of
the disease, questioned Stoutemyer
closely in an effort to find out wheth
