AS Breeding Ground for Alaska

tons at 1000 feet elevation near the
arctic circle. That is the days are
warm and sunshiny, but the nights
are almost cold even in summer, while
the severe winters are apt to kill all
but the hardest perennials
A bill was recently introduced into
congress for the establishment Of just
such work in Colorado and also for
experiments that would breed drought
resistant vegetables for the desert.
The methods employed in this ex-
perimental work are exceedingly in
teresting. II for instance; it was de.
cided to find a wheat that would ma
ture in a very cold climate like that
in the hill country north of the arctic
circle, this is how 1t would be done:
First, the hardest seed OF all the har-
diest varieties would be obtainable
from Russia, Scandinavia, Canada and
Alaska. Then it would be planted In a
place where it would be unlikely to
mature. There might be just one stalk
that, from some mysterious strain OF
breeding or force of circumstance,
would stand unframed by the autumn
frosts. Its seed would be treasured
and the next year each grain would
be carefully planted and guarded 50
that the strain should be increased,
and still further and severer tests
made on 1t until it was so hardened
that full annual crop was assured.

Lack of Horses Alarms Officers

airy and published by the department
of agriculture, doubt is expressed on
the subject The army type is said
to be scarce and hard to obtain.
Capt. Conrad recommends legis
lation by the states generally to pre-
vent the breeding of unsound horses
In 1908 the government established
the system Of remount depots for the
army. Under this system the govern.
ment buys the horse young, at three
to four years old, and after breaking
them issues them to the troops. This
system has been found preferable to
purchasing the animals when matured
But what the army officers want, and
also the department of agriculture, Is
a system Of government supervision Of
the breeding of horses for the army.
Chief George NJ. Rommel Of the ami
NAL husbandry division Of the bureau
of animal industry, has devised a plan
whereby from 1000 to $500 well.bred
animals would be available for the
army every year. This would about
supply the demands in time of peace.
1t is proposed to divide the country
into four districts and to rear Nor
gans, thoroughbreds, standardbreds
and saddlers. In time the best type
would be discovered.

Eiohtinu Man,

1t is mans nature to fight. It is his
merit to fight for what he believes to
be right. Courage and bravery are
not achieved by hiring a lawyer. A
man who is not willing to fight to the
death for the right or for his own is
not as good or complete man as one
who is is willing. But opinions about
this are not so important as the fact
that it is mans nature to fight, and
that neither resolutions nor legislation
nor provision to get over all kinds Of
trouble in any other way than fighting
will avail.-Ellwood Hendricks, in At
