; Their strong shoulders seem made
on purpose for pulling, though the
animals tire easily, and not under
standing this new sensation become
frightened and are inclined to stop
and lie down. a somewhat incOnven-
lent proceeding at times. However,
the species is improving both in size
and Intelligence and wise training
will accomplish much. Some months
ago a trip was taken with two deer
through deep snow with no path to
! follow and in three and a half hours
they covered Sc miles. They are used
constantly for drawing wood for the
mission stations and hospitals and a
ride behind a deer team is said TO be
memorable experience.
A deer stag is killed each week
sometimes two, to provide meat for
the St. Anthony Hospital. This is
model institution which would do
credit to any modern city, and here
the battle against disease is waged
by corps of skillful doctors and
nurses, many of them volunteers
from the states, earnest men and Wo-
men who devote their time and ener-
gies for the good of the needy in that
cold country. tuberculosis is the
scourge most dreaded and most fire.
quently found. The workers are con-
stantly battling against the practice
so common among the natives of
closing every crack and crevice and
fastening the house securely against
the outdoor air. Whole families live
in these unyentilated houses all win
ter long, and the result is what
might be expected
the ignorance of the people is their
greatest foe. Lessons in physiology
are now taught in the schools at St.
Anthony, the bones and organs of
the reindeer being brought in to
show the construction of their bod
les and prove a source of intense in
terest and wOnderment to the chill
dren, who never gave any thought to
the care of their bodies, except such
as any small animal might give.
1t is slow work to convince the ma
tives as a whole of the wisdom of
giving up their dogs and trying the
reindeer, and they look with lazy in
difference at the experiment being
tried. Some, however, have already
purchased deer for their own use
and others are willing to give up
their dogs if a substitute just as good
can be found. AS a ranching animal
the reindeer are proving a great sue
cess and in time the savage dogs will
be banished.
Arrangements have been made to
carry 10 North Labrador a portion
of the herd, in charge of herders
whose home is there, and in this way
the useful animals will become more
widely known and valued among the
natives.
Carcasses of reindeer are being
shipped in cold storage to Boston and
New York as prime venisOn, which is
considered a great delicacy. When it
is seen how easily the barren and use
less portions of these regions can be
turned into good farm land, prOduc-
ing not only milk and meat but
strong and faithful serving animals,
great gratitude and appreciation are
due to the earnest workers who with
much effort and anxiety have brought
about these good results.

SEED INSPIRE POETRY.
Dawson Constituent Thanks Con-
gresham Crisp for q Package.


gresham Crisp for a Package.
A package of garden seeds inspir-
ed one of Congressman Crisp's Daw-
son constituents to write poetry. Uu-
on receipt of some seeds from Wash
ington Mr.. w. P. Hornady immedi-
ately expressed his thanks in verse, in
which he also suggests to the popular
congressman how he may still further
extend his fame and make himself
solid with his constituents for all
time to come. Here it is:
Accept our thanks for garden seeds,
A present every farmer needs.
Good turnip salad can't be beat,
But worthless when one has no meat.
The price of bacon is so high
That common people cannot buy.
Can you suggest a substitute
That good housekeepers won't refute?
A wholesome diet within our reach
That we may practice what we
preach?
If so right then your fortunes made,
! And you will always get our trade.
We've tried to cultivate a taste
For things that wealthy people waste,
But man cannot with flesh increase
Unless he eats some kind of grease.
We've tried grapenuts, post toasties,
! flakes,
Hoping they'd take the place of
! steaks
And thereby we might break the
trust;
But guess well give up in disgust.
PLEASE hurry with your substitute,
Get something no one can dispute.
Then this whole nation will eXclaim
That Chas. R. Crisp has won great
fame.

BY VI. Louise Ford in

Travellers in the interior Of La5ra
don tell of a land of awful deso'a'
ton. a country whose surface is
strewn with huge powders, three OF
four deep in some places, and much
of the time a barren and frozen
waste. Bears. wolves, offers, foxes
and beavers are plentiful and the
wild caribou roam at will,
The warm waters of the Gull
stream bring to the British Isles
warmth and verdure, but the shores
of Labrador are bathed by the icy
waters Of the Arctic current. Even
in summer the coast is often blocked
bv icebergs. The Eskimo dog OF
husky, as he is called, is the only
animal in all that land that can be
called a domestic animal and he is
a savage creature, half wolf, who,
if hungry. does not hesitate to make
a meal of his driver, or even the
whole family. as is sometimes the
case.
The natives admit that the husky,
though so useful, is a great check
upon the prosperity of the people,
for the keeping of goats, sheep and
hens has been tried time and again,
but they only served for new delica-
cies for the ravenous dogs. There
being no grass in that region it is
impossible to keep cows, and the peo-
pie scarcely know the taste of milk
or butter The food is largely fish
or meat, often eaten raw, and no OBJ
lection is made if it is not very fresh.

would in time take the pace of the

disappearing from those waters and
