the dogs have enough to eat, and in
the struggle for food the supremacy
of the biped over the quadruped is
shown. and the dogs get the worst Of

Judge Wickersham Decides Status
of Native Alaskans.

eVuukC DCCtutS STATUS
of Native Alaskans.
Washington, June l4.-Information
has been received here of an important
opinion rendered by Judge James
Wickerstham, of the Third Alaska dis
trict. This opinion holds that mem.
beers of settled Alaska native tribes
and Russian half breeds from the
mouth of the Copper river to the Aleu-
tian islands are American citizens UNI
der treaty with Russia.
The details of the opinion are not
yet known here, but it is recognized
that this ruling, if it finally holds, will
permit the natives concerned to take
up mining claims and exercise other
rights as property holders in the terri
tory.
1t is probable that the decision will
sooner or later be tested by an appeal
TO the higher courts. Judge Wicker
sham has been investigating this ques-
ton for long time, and made some
researches when he was in Washing

HOMEGROWN Alfalfa Seed.

Reports from Michigan farmers
on plats seeded to alfalfa show the
folly of using seed imported from EN-.
rope. rather than the home grown
seed. The imported seed has a less
vitality and does not catch SO well.
and also has lower per cent of ger
minatiOn. While these two points ara
enough to enable the farmer to SEQ
that the home grown seed is clearly
the best there is one more serious
objection to the imported seed. Most
of it is found to contain large amount
of weed seed, the most troublesome
ones being doddcr and buckthorn.
One man invested something over u
hundred dollars in European seed. tho
result from which was almost absolute
failure. although different plats were
sown in varying ways, some with a
nurse crop. others without. Neighbors
who used the homegrown seed got
good results. as the past season has
been an especially favorable one to get
a good catch.
