been developed to suit particular region for various sections of the world having climatic, agronomic, and human preferences peculiar to the regions. In all of these loca- tions, the process of producing a breed suitable to the section has largely been matter of letting nature take it's course.
 AS a consequence, hundreds of years were required in the process. Probably none of them have reach ed their present stage of perfec- tion in less than 150 years. Many times the practical attainment of a satisfactory breed being lost a number of times, during the devel- opment through careless and ig- norant breedipg, and by having too many men flying to attain slightly different ideals before the breed was actually established.
 The Alaska experiment stations, in their effort to produce a satis- factory dairy breed, have set up an ideal and pursued the work with sngleness of purpose and energy /that justifies the expectation of results, in approximately one-tenth the time and at a very small frac- tion of the expense required for the formation of any of the other dairy breeds of the world. The work is attracting the attention of cattle and livestock breeders thru out the world as attested by letters

ALASKA RIVER STEAMER
 PLANS ARE ORDERED

William c. Nickum, Seattle Nav al architect, has been commissions ed by J. R. Ummel, Seattle man. ager for the Department of the h. terior, to prepare plans for a 210- loot sternwheel river steamer, for which bids will be called within the next 30 days.
 The vessel, to be built at Me- mana, will have 30 staterooms and capacity for 250 tons of cargo. She is to be operated by the Alaska Railroad and is to replace one of the older steamers now in service, it was stated.
 It is planned to build the vessel this summer so she may enter ser vice at the beginning of the 1883 season.
 When completed, the vessel will operate between Nenana, Panama and Marshall, connecting with the Northern Commercial Company's vessels from St. Michael.

ment. The shortage will appear about September of this year. This date may be varied, depending on whether or not vouchers are with held for payment, as was done dur ing the month of December, 1881, to maintain the cash balance in the Treasury.
 Shall the operation of the Old Age Pensions, School maintenance and Pioneers Home be maintained?
 Therefore the main issues of this year will be whether or not suffi- clent money is retained to meet the primary claims, such as pen slonS, school maintenance and op- eration of the Pioneers Home. pledge my every effort to fulfill the obligations of the office in the protection of these funds. If the Auditors office is to remain both necessary and a beneficial of flee to the people of the Territory, 1t must have the support of the people. I therefore both humbly and earnestly ask your endorse ment for the nomination for the office of Auditor in the comino primary election.

HIGH SCHOOL PLANS ID
 STAGE DRAMA CONTEST

Four one-act plays will be pre- sented by the four classes in the Seward High School at dramatic contest which will be held in the Seward High School auditorium on the nights of April 2 and 4.
 The dramatic contest this year will be similar to the excellent pro- duction held last year. Another feature of the event will be the casting of votes to choose the best play, the best boy actor and the best girl actress of the four plays. Ballots are to be given all those who attend except children under F. Children under 12 will be ad- mitted to a dress rehearsal which will be held at 2 o'clock on the af- ternoon of April 1.
 The four plays which are to be staged are being directed by the sponsors of each class. Thus the Senior class sponsor directs the Senior class play. All rehearsals are being held outside the school hours.
 The Seward High School Dramat- ic Association, Vivian Nilsson, pres ident, has appointed Agnes An derson, manager of the advance ticket sale; Lois lessen, business manager, and Bjarne Tollbom, ad- yertising manager

and inquiries received inquiring as
 to the progress of the work
 5. The value to the Territory of
 the introduction of a satisfactory legume by the experiment stations
 cannot be minimized. An inveSti-
 gation will show that no agricul-
 tural locality of the world has
 reached its greatest livestock de- velopment until a satisfactory le-
 gume for the locality was grown.
 Tn this connection, the stations
 have tested out and recommended
 a satisfactory annual legume, the
 vetch. The importance of this plant is shown strikingly in the Mata-
 nuska Valley where livestock de- velopment was held at standstill until the introduction of the grow ing of vetch on the farms.
 Experiments now under way at the Matanuska Station indicates that eventually perennial legume of the alfalfa or clover family will be found suitable for the region The establishment of a perennial legume. would, of course, be a de- cided improvement over an annual legume that requires plantin g each year Commercial agriculture has neither the funds of know ledge to pursue this work.
 6-Rotation of crops is most important factor in establishing a permanent agriculture. The ad- vantages of rotation of crops are; maintaining the fertility, the mois- ture, and the physical structure of the soil. Single crops generally permit the growth and develop ment of certain weeds and diseas- es, deplete the fertility and mois- ture at certain levels, break down the desired physical structure of the soil particles, all of which re- duce crop yields.
 The nature of the season, kinds of crops grown in Alaska make the formation of satisfactory rota- tion systems particularly difficult. gained by investigators in the states and European coun- tries while of material benefit in working out the problems arising in Alaska cannot be directly ap- piled. A score of rotations now be- ing tested promise to throw light on the subject, but replications and continued yearly plantings are necessary before facts can be as- certained. Individual settlers are wholly unprepared to carry on this work. The closing of the Station would cause a loss of all the work to date, and delay many years the obtaining of this valuable information, even though the work was to begin a. new next year
 7-Potatoes and root crops are valuable cash crops in Alaska. Problems dealing with cultural elimination of parasites and diseases, the establishment of standard varieties, are being work I'd upon. An additional three years would have permitted the stations Q have acquired sufficient data to make definite and specific recom- on these points.

COMMUNICATION.
March 10, 1892

March 10, 1882. Fellow Alaskans:
 I solicit your support for the nomination for reelection to the
 office of Auditor at the coming Republican primary, that I may continue the fight to serve the people of Alaska, by so conducting the office of Auditor that the law creating that office may be fulfill ed and the office maintained as a Democratic institution apart from bureaucratic organization for the full benefit of the people of Alaska.
 A quarter of a million dollars more money than was available was appropriated by the last Leg islature. Thus, it became necessary that careful management be exer- cised in apportioning the funds so that the necessary expenditures would be assured sufficient money for the biennium.
 Eighty-three per cent, of the to- tal appropriations are expendable under the direct supervision of the Governor and was early apparent that he was not going to so man age the distribution of funds that sufficient money would be withheld for the payment of primary claims. Immediately the controversy began as to whether or not the Auditor would be permitted to disburse the funds as provided by the law creat- ing his office. The Governor, with the aid of the Attorney General and the Treasurer, who compose the Board of Examiners, has so far been able to usurp this duty. The law creating this Board was passed by the last Legislature.
 A financial statement issued by the Auditors office and handed to the Governor May Is, 1881, pre- dicted that if the average monthly rate of expenditures were made. the Treasury would be without funds by the first of the year. The Board of Examiners has supported the Governor in his extravagant expenditures with the statement that there would be plenty of funds at all times during the biennium.
 The Daily Empire of March 4 contains the following news head ing, given out by the Governor: Treasury Cash Balance Shows Sharp Decline; Net Balance of Ter ritory on February 29th, $226, ,738 Less Than 1931." The general fund balance on February 29, 1882, was $337 ,865.38.
 During the month of November, l visited Seattle on Territorial | business, and while there inter- viewed some of the cannerymen, asking them for the early payment of their taxes on account of the depleted condition of the Terri Jorlal Treasury. This appeal was responded to by several compan- les and survey of early tax pay ments received by the Treasurer shows that the canneries paid 'otal of $339,31O.O7 for different axes since the first of this year. These taxes would normally have oeen paid March 15 Therefore, the ;otal amount of cash on hand as shown by the Treasurer's state nent is just about offset by the ,otal of the early payment of can- lery and fish taxes. This condi- ion proves the prediction made by he figures issued by the Auditors office on May 15, 1881, and I now state that there will not be suffi- ,lent taxes this year with which Q pay the operation of the govern

q
 settlers. For instance; the intro Iduction and use of the land roller by the Station was shown to be of great value in increasing yields. At the present time practically every farmer owns or uses land roller The Experiment Station introduc- ed and used the first grain binder the first threshing machine, and permitted farmers in the early days to use them on their farms until custom and privately owned ma chimes were brought in.
 Recently the Stations have pur- chased and shipped to Matanuska a pea viner and huller at a cost of $1,000 to ascertain the feasibility of growing canning peas on a com mercial scale. At the present time plans are being formulated to pur- chase a hay drying machine to test it's usefulness in Alaska. Many in dicationS point to the success of this machine, in fact, it is believed that the ultimate success of dafrying and the livestock produc- tion is dependent upon a satisfac- tory hay drying device. It appears to have much the same relation to livestock production in Alaska as did the cotton gin to the cotton in dustry in the South.
 ' 9-There continues to be demand upon the Station by new settlers and homeseekers for berry plants, shrubs, ornamental bushes, flow CTS, and garden seeds. Thousands of requests have been filled in the past and it is believed that, while all paintings have by no means been successful, nevertheless the service has been of great value in aiding the new population to es- tablish homes and become perma- nent citizens.
 10-The industry of dairying has become a going fact, though as yet in small way. This project was probably pushed 10 years ahead of it's natural growth, due to the efforts of the station. The Experiment Stations in coopera- tion with The Alaska Railroad have given considerable time, ef- fort and expense to fathering this new undertaking. A number of settlers are now receiving practi- cally their entire cash in om (even though it be smalD from their dairy efforts.
 The work at the Matanuska sta tion is of an experimental and not commercial nature. However, potatoes grown in excess of exper- mental requirements are sold Go the farmers for seed at the price of market potatoes. Small amounts are distributed free to permit set tiers to acquire superior seed. Seed grain in excess of Station require mentS is distributed to settlers and farmers throughout Alaska.
 A considerable agricultural effort is necessary to supply the feed re- quirements of 50 to TO head of ex- perimental cattle, 30 to 40 head of experimental sheep, 5 to 20 experi- mental hogs, 4 work horses, and three to five dozen chickens. Sur plus breeding stock is sold to set tiers and farmers at lower than out side prices. The surplus breeding stock the past few years has con- sisted largely of young heifers, young sows and bulls.
 Breeding stock has largely sold 1 in the Matanuska Valley, but in dividuals have been shipped to as widely seperated points as Peters burg, GuStavuS, Circle, Holy Cross, Anchorage, Seward, Kenai, Kusi- lof, Unalaska, Kanatak, Fort Yu- kon and Fairbanks
