FARMING IN ALASKA

The news from Alaska that two societies have just been incorporated for the purpose of ''devoting their means and energies to the ag1icutura development of the TerrtOrv'' " is dsconcerting reminder of the falliblity of pncvclOpedias work of that kind to which We instinctvely turn when in quest of knowl- edge on almost any topic save, for example, that "Alaska is too far north to be of any i'm po1tancc as an agricultural country" The soil says the same authority, is very fertile, but the expense of preparing it for cultivation is enormous And even as we read the words, written some fifteen years ago, we know that the Territory has so far taken farming serious ly that it has formed one organization for CO., operative marketing, with capital stock of $1OOOO0 and that livestock association has had its stocEs largely ovcrsubscrbcd.
 Nature knew what she was doing when she put the Japan current on the map, and also whcn in strange mood of giving compcnSa- tion where she cxacts hardships she made the summer days long and sunny to atone for the intense cold and the intcrminablc night of winter The census of 1900 showed only 1J9 acres devoted to farm crops in the entire Ter ritory; already there are thousands of acres "mder the blow" and many more awaiting only the enterprise of new settlers for their development
 The pioneers on those l59 acres showed the way. They proved that the hardier, quick growing vegetables could be grown to perfcc tion in Alaskan soil and season, but in particu- lar that grasses of enormously nourishng qual- Iity could be grown, furnishing excellent feed for cattle. Moreover, in the short space of decade much has been learned concerning the breeding of new varieties of grain which are adaptable to particular localities. It is no longer true, for illustration, as it was a short while back that oats cannot be brought to ma turity and the extension of the silo has atoned for the difficulty in some sections at tending the curing of hay Determination to cooperate in making the most of these new rc- sources is one of the most encouraging signs of all.
 In area Alaska covers about 590,0OO square miles, which is greater than that of the orgi- nal thirteen colonies and is equal to about one sixth of the entire United States. The i'm portamcc of its utilization to the fullest extent possible is obvious in view of the growing de mand of the worlds population for food but il is especially significant in its relation to the livestock industry in period in which the extent of the cattle ranges is being constantly curtailcd.-Portland Orcgonan.
