New Industry of Importing Animals
Into Alaska Has in Late Years
Greatly Developed.

That scheme for importing reindeer
into Alaska from Siberia, which met
with criticism and even with ridicule
when first suggested few years ago
by Sheldon Jackson. is now proving
the salvation OF the Alaskan Eskimos,
says Outing. While the original
thought was only to repair the rapidly
iessening food supply of the natives,
yet it has developed into a Veritable
reindeer industry. so successfully has
the plan worked, in fact, that not only
does it furnish the natives with food.
clothing and means of transportation,
holds out the prospect of putting
Alaska in few years in the posi-
ton of supplying deer meat to an out
side market Reindeer does are pro-
life, and an excellent cheese is made
of their milk. AS carriers they have
already supplanted dogs for the United
States mail, and may be ridden, or
will carry easily a pack of 151 pounds.
In fact. the reindeer industry is al
ready a very important one. with
widening significance.

writes: I'm one of my nests was an
ant which had come into the world
without antennae Never having pre-.

watched her with great interest, but
she never appeared TO leave the nest
At length one day found her wander

some ants Of another species. who di-
rectly attacked her. 1 at once set my
self to separate them, but, whether

both, she was evidently much wound

After some time ansther ant from the
same nest came by. She examined the
poor sufferer carefully. then picked
her up and carried her away into the
nest. 1t would have been difficult for
anyone who had witnessed the scene
TO have denied this ant the possession
Of humane feelings. In face Of such
facts as these it is impossible to re-
gard ants as mere exquisite automa-
tons. When we see an ant hill, ten
