"Oh, Livingston was here just a mo-

Wrong Ideas Of Alaska.

Alaska is a cold and barren region
aud Is almost useless except as q
hunting g-ground for the seal and other
fur-bearing animals" declared a
standard school geography published
so recently as 1875. The discovery
OF gold served materially to broaden
that view, and a representative OF the
Department of Agriculture now re-
ports that the territory's agricultural
possibilities have been grievously
underestimated. In the Yukon val
ley he has ripened oats, barley and
winter wheat for successive seasons,
and found them fully as heavy as the
best grain of the States. Grasses
grow abundantly, as do all the hard
Ter vegetables; and when II comes TO
live stock. Galloway cattle, long
haired, hardy breed, stand the climate
well, Such facts suggest that Il
should not be difficult to carry ont
the aim of the Alaska Yukon Pacific
Exposition, ito correct the common
impression that Alaska mad Yukon
are nothing but countries OF gold and
cold"
