poinmen the people of Cordova it expected that

done at Mile Is and also has been decided to enlarge the
Whtshed station This will likely that cruiser will
be here this bringing 80 60 civilians and navy

RAISING FOOD FOR AMERICANS
IN ALASKA

WE'VE known for some time now that Alaska
w is supplying Uncle Sam with his gold; for
many years Alaskan salmon has helped to feed the
people of the United States; Alaskan furS have
been big item of export; we have known that
pretty soon Alaska will begin to keep the Pacific
coast warm with her coal; and we knew also that
her vast mineral, water power and timber resources
are practically untouched and that the future will
see an enormous development in those industries.
But we had never quite realized that Alaska might
be big storehouSe from which the states could
draw a large portion of their food supply Some
how, il hadn't occurred TO us that cattle raising
might some day become an important item in
Aaska's industrial development And so the in
formation which comes from the United States de-
partment of agriculture, showing that successful
cattle raising of ordinary domestic cattle is even
now going on near the Arctic circle is rather sur
prising.
In the fall of 1911, j. a. Reiger, who conducts
A road house about IS miles from the town of
Circle on the road from Fairbanks to Circle brought
in % head of young cattle. He believed the stock
could be wintered on the native hay or swae grass
if he converted ii into enSlage. He built so of
logs, on a small creek near his road house, caked
with moss and pointed on the inside with cement
At the head of his creek are large natural meadows
The coarse wild grass was cut floated down the
creek put into the silo and rammed tight with a
small mixture of salt

EDITORIAL PAGE OF THE SEATTLE STAR ==$&$z==&

The stock were grazed in the open until Oc-
tober II, after which they were given the ermented
grass, which they ate eagerly. They were provided
with log barn for shelter In the extreme winter
weather. They were fed on the ensilage alone
until April of the following spring. when ii was all
consumed, and hay had to be imported. They grew
fat on the salty food and retained excellent health
At present. Reiger has IS head of the finest cattle
to be found anywhere, and at no time since the first
winter has he imported any hay for them.
The importance of this experiment lies in the
fact that the entire Yukon flats from Circle to Fort
Hamln, nearly 100 miles in width, furnish thou
sands of these natural meadows which this grass
growsl
With an enormous reindeer industry already
started In Arctic Alaska-and already shipping rein
deer meat to the states; with the introduction of
domestic cattle in interior Alaska, and with the
breeding stations Of the agricultural department
proposing to develop special strain for the coun-
try the future of the meat industry in Alaska looks
very promising.
