An intonvsting report has been issued by Secretary Wilson of the national de­ partment of agriculture which reveals unsuspected resources in the territory of -Alaska. This rejiort cxhibits the results of careful investigations into the agri­ cultural possibilities of the territory made under the supervision of the de­ partment, and, a$ Secretary Wilson says, the showing "will astonish those who have regarded Alaska as a useless Ice box which, at most, was valuable only for the gold it might contain or for the fur and fish it yields." It is .shown by this report that there are: large areas in Alaska in which the eoil is adapted to the cultivation of cer­ eals. From these samples have been received by the government officials of Eleven varieties of spring wheat, a doz­ en varieties of barley, as many of oats and two or three each of buckwheat and flax, all of which practical experts believe can be grown profitably in the territory under the ordinary methods of American farming. I11 the neighbor­ hood of Sitka red clover lives through­ out the winter, and Other forage plants mature perfectly, notwithstanding the Shortness of the summer season. Near­ ly all the common, hardy vegetables thrive well, and some of them develop a size and flavor unknown to similar vari­ eties grown in lower latitudes. Results scarcely less surprising have followed the experiments undertaken in the raising of live stock. In some sec­ tions cattle, sheep and Angora goats find ample pasturage all the year round and require no shelter in winter. Ac­ cording to the reports received there is a natural increase of about fifty per cent in the cattle herds, while the goats increase at the rate of sixty per cent. In one instance a flock of sheep has been kept on pasturage alone for six­ teen years and has shown an annual increase of sixty per cent, with a yearly average wool clip of five pounds per head. In view of these facts Secretary Wil­ son reaches the conclusion that with proper development Alaska in time can be made to sustain a large popula­ tion, and in support of this opinion he cites the case of Finland, which, located in the same latitude and containing less than one-fourth of the area of Alaska, maintains a population of 2,000,000 and in addition exports considerable quan­ tities of grain, live stock and dairy pro­ ducts. Secretary Wilson proposes to follow up these discoveries by investi­ gating thoroughly the Yukon region, and, if results follow, no limit caiii be placed upon the development of that section. Gold has been found there in abundance, its fisheries are wonderful­ ly rich, vast coal deposits have been dis­ covered, and if it turns out that in ad­ dition the soil will yield the foodstuffs required for the support of its inhabi­ tants, it will be safe to predict that Alaska will become one of the greatest sources of otir national wealth. i W SUPERVISOR'S STATEMENT Snttoiitsat{*1 the Financial Aflfclrs Of the .. - Town. , --;. • v/'V >'• V- -A l;rr jp .

A Breslau doctor has succeeded in pro­ ducing gout in hens by feeding them with meat. He gave the hens nothing but horseflesh, without fat, and as much water as they would drink, With deplor­ able results to the unfortunate fowls. Having instilled the desease, he then undertook to drive out the uric acid by administering powdered egg shells, which restored the hens to their ndrmal condition. 1 Rev. W. E. Sitzer, W. Caton, N.

That sounds like an odd sort of problem, but worked out in a certain way the re­ sult will be as stated. India is starving. The famine is worse than three years ago. England cannot pour out millions for relief as she did then. India is reaching pleading hands to all the world. She calls to yon. Will you help her dying people? You can do it. An­ other ship load of corn will be sent to the famine sufferers. Lord Curzon cables that the Indian Government "will pay for the ship. 50,000 bushels of "the proposed cargo are pledged. I have been asked to raise as much more to coinpjete the cargo. It ean be speedily done if a few people with warm hearts and quick hands will take hold and help. * Are there iaot one hundred people in each of the j»reat corn states, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri," Nebraska and Kansas, who will each raise $40, the price of 100 bushels of corn in New York? By holding a mass meeting, or by present­ ing the matter to the churches of any to ton or city, supplemented by a few hours of personal work among the busi­ ness men of the community, any pastor or active church worker could do this much. Will you be tho one in your community to take it up? Why not? While you wait, the hungry are star­ ving. Let 500 people in these great states move at once in the matter, and the money with which to complete the cargo of the ship now being chartered in New York will be had quickly. The cargo of corn was received eagerly by India three years ago, and those who are trying to releive the hungry there now are hoping and praying that an­ other ship will reach them. A bushel of corn worth 40 cents in New York, will be worth f 1.40 laid down in the famine districts and will feed a man two months. Notice how this method of sending will multiply your gift. If you will take the matter up in your community, send me word at once, that we may know who and how many are at work. c I beseech you in the name of the starving to help. A promise on your part to raise $40 will not bind you to pay the money personally, or any part of it, but will mean that you will do all you can at once to secure that amount. Will you not send me word upon re­ ceipt of this that you will begin work in your community. If you cannot raise all the $40 yourself can you not call others to your aid in nearby neighbor­ hoods and in that way complete the work of providing for 100 bushels? You can reach these others where I could not. I will receipt for money, or will send you name of some one appointed in your section of your state to receive money. R. G. HOBBS, Springfield, Illinois.

Jacob Litt's famous melodrama of American life "In Old Keniucky" will begin a two week's engagement at Mt- Vicker's theatre, Chicago, Monday April 2. There has never been a play which has enjoyed the marvelous pros­ perity which has attended this product­ ion. Year after year the people have flo» ked into the theatres packing them to the door, whenever "In Old Ken­ tucky" was announced, the popularity of the play seeming to increase rather than diminish with the flight of time. The story of the drama deals with the people of th*» Blue Grass state in a pic­ turesque way. It is a human play pulsating with life. The scenes, which are superbly painted, show the Kentucky mountains with their valleys and gor­ ges, their snow-capped peaks and fertile coves; a view of the famous Lexington race track with its grandstand filled with shouting thousands; the paddock, where excited grooms are exercising the sleek-located thoroughbreds before the race which is to decide fortune--almost life itself--for the hero and his brave sweetheart, Madge Brierly, the pretty mountain girl who dares death again and again to save the man she loves from danger. The thrilling adventures through which Madge and Frank Lay- son go in the course of the play's action include the saving of Frank's life by a leap across a chasm, the winning of the race by Madge; the attempt of the vil­ lains to burn the stable in which Queen Bess is kept with a rescue of the noble animal by Madge; and a hundred other exciting incidents. The comedy ele­ ment is well taken care of in the persons of Colonel Sandusky Doolittle, aunt Lethe and old Uncle Neb. Then there is the band of pickanninnies, who play old time southern melodies as only gen­ uine sons of the country south of Mason and Dixon's- line can. As presented at McVicker's theatre the play will have the advantage of the superb scenic adornment made for its production at the Academy of music in New York and never used anywhere else but at McVicker's. There is a fine company and a string of real *ace horses. i A Card. , I, the undersigned, do hereby agree to refund the money on a 50 cent bottle of Green's Warranted Syrup of Tar if it fails to cure your cough or cold.

Practice sometimes makes a perfect nuisance A remarkable natural curiosity is that of a woman. The mother-of-pearl would make a jewel of a mother-in-law. It's an easy matter to ignore an insult aimed at somebody else. If a man has pluck and action he will always find the means and ways. Experience comes high, but you needn't tell your neighbor what it cost. Never put off until tomorrow the man who offers to lend you money today. When a man is willing to admit his ignorance he is beginning to acquire wisdom. Salt provisions were introduced into the navy when Noah took ham into the ark. Many a contributor to the world's his­ tory doesn't know the first principles of grammar. Whenever a woman makes an enelhy of a man for life she always tells him they can still be friends. The man who tells you that clothes do not make the man is usually the first to criticise your apparel. Says a lawyer: "Politeness is all right in its place, but many a man has been a heavy loser through a civil act ion." The man who always remembers his wife's birthday anniversary and pre­ sents her with some little token esteem seldom has cause to seek a divorce. To secure the original witch hazel salve, ask for DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve, well known as a Certain cure for piles and skin diseases. Beware of worthless counterfeits. They are dan­ gerous. Julia A. Story. WhatOne Woman Thinks. The white woman's burden--the family market basket. say to one another. Some people seem to have a genius for doing the right thing in the wrong way. No matter how cut up a man is, he ought always to be willing to bury the hatchet. Giving a woman a bank hook does not always put a check on her extrava­ gance. The songs in the night the young father hears are not the ones referred to by David. When a woman begins to put on airs she usually has ambitions to soar in high society. When a man is always bragging about the mint of money he is making, you may depend upon it that there's a good deal of counterfeit about it. The papers may assert that America sympathizes with Kruger's army, but we have all been guilty at some Mine or other of trying to get rid of a bore.-- Philadelphia Times.
