AGRICULTURE IS OUR
 GREATEST RESOURCE

There is no other resource in Al aska so great as the agricultural" '" This is the statement of Prof. c. C.. Georgeson, superintendent of the U. s. agricultural stations in Alaska, who is in Juneau now an a guest of the Hotel Cain "All we need" he con- tinued is people to settle up the coun- try and take advantage of great oppor- tunities.'
 Prof. Georgeson has but just re- turned from the States where he had placed the government herd of Alas ka galloway cattle immediately follow ing the volcanic eruption which de- stroyed the forage grounds at Kodiak where they were stationed. The herd has prospered wonderfully Prof. GeOr- geson says and there are now too many cattle on hand for experimental work. His recent visit to the States was made with the view of dspOsing of the surplus, holding those that were of a type nearly approaching the qual- ity most desirable for Alaska. Those offered for sale in Eastern Washington and Oregon are more on the order of beef cattle, while those held for Alas ka are better adapted to dairying. "The plan is to develop from these hardy gallOways a good family cow" said Prof. Georgeson, for this type will be of greater benefit to the cOun- try. The time is coming, however, when this Northern country will raise cattle extensively. The Susitna val
 icy will be a great cattle country so will the section back of Haines. The galloways were developed from the Southwest seection of Scotland and have been bred for 25O years. They are great rustlers and inured to hard ships. The long, thick hair gives them a coat that offers protection from the cold. The hide of the galloway if killed at the right season is as good as a buffalo robe. Some types of the galloways are good milk and butter producers while others are better for beef
 "Ensilage is the economical food for winter for cattle in the North A COW will eat her own weight in ensil- age every month. A silo 16 feet high and 36 feet in diameter will hold 100 tons of ensilage
 'The station at Rampant is develop ing grains and forage plants that will give the very best results in the Northern attitudes. They now have perfect alfalfa growing in latitude 65:30 that prospers and natures; also ryes that will thrive; and, are now de- veloping a barley that will be adapted to the country besides numerous for age grasses. Prof Georgeson believes that wheat will never be successfully grown in Alaska, but that rye will be a staple product.
 1.-Two years ago a self-binder was shipped to the experimental station at Fairbanks and this past year a thresh- ing machine was sent in. The Fair banks station is conducted as a model farm for the purpose of teaching the farmers of the Panama valley the crODS that caD ha raised nOct cuooocc fully and give the greatest profit. This section needs a railroad and needs it badly in order that the great valley may be settled up and the agricultur- al resources be developed.

The Adage.

can ounce of prevention is better
than a pound of cure" is just as ap-
plicable today as it ever was. For
this reason would it not be wise for
the school board to inform themselves
in regard to the methods used for re-
moving the daily accumulation of
germ laden dust from our school build
ing.
If the dirt is rot removed in a
sanitary manner as it should be then
it is certainly not necessary for the
one who does the sweeping to compel
the children to inhale clouds of dust
before they are able to leave the
school building. Certainly the time
of the janitor should not be considered
of more value than the the health of
the children.
The fact that clouds of dust are
raised every night only to settle back
again on the childrens' books and over
the ventilators is reason enough for a
protest from both parents and teach
ers. DonnelIy has an excellent ply
8ician but there is enough unavoidable

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
DEAFNESS is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustac hian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a runobling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh.
which is nothing but an inflamed condi-
tion of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars free.
