Without it, they are handicapped as they go out to achieve for a livelihood for themselves. The Indust Training School ern Alaska will fill a want that has long been felt But in adding it to the three already in existence, the Federal Government has not by any means gone as far as is necessary. It should add several others without delay even if it has to curtail some of its other local activities which do not hold out near the promise of returns that industrial training assures. for Southeast- A NOTEWORTHY MUSICAL TREAT. In the concerts given last night and again this afternoon by Charles Wakefield Cadman and Madame Florence Beeler, Juneau peocple were afforded an opportunity of the kind that come all too seldom in this Northland. It is one of the handicaps of a pioneer and sparsely settled land that its chances| are limited to hear and see musicians and others | of note in the various fields of art. Thus when so rare a treat is afforded as that by the visitation | of these two it is an occasion long to be re- membered Whether the was a finished muslcmn] one with a wide knowledge of music and its his-| tory, or simply one who loved the finer things, all| who attended the Juneau were delighted | as they well might be. If placipg one's work above | himself, if simplicity and sincerity are the marks | of true artistry, Cadman and Beeler possess that| quality that is akin to divinity. !

It was so remote and isolated, so inaccessible to the enemy, in the time of the Civil War, that General Lee wrote to his wife suggesting that the esfate might be purchased, that she and his daughters might remain there in quiet, and that the old wheels and looms might be got out again and clothes made for the poor Confederates. It was more than such a practical use that prompted the proposal of its purchase, for only a fortnight before he had said of Stratford Hall in another letter to his wife: “It is endeared to me by many recollections and it has been always a great desire of my life to be able to purchase it.” What he was never able to do it is now planned to do in making this a permanent memorial—a national, not a sectional, shrine. In completing the fund for it, there is an op- portunity for North and South to join in homage to this man of whom Woodrow Wilson wrote that it was not an exaggeration to say that in all parts of the country his manhood and self-forget- fulness and achievements are “a conscious model to men who would be morally great.” Another ‘solid and pkefield, Reindeer Enrich Alaska. (Seattle Times.) Reindeer, traditional coursers in the realm of fancy, have raced into the world of fact. They are hailed by the Federal Govrenment as a worth, stantial addition to the nation’s ‘food supply. Ac- cording to d tests conducted by the Bureau of Standards, Alaska deer meat is rich in protein, low in moisture content and devoid of excessive fat— qualities that commend it for human consumption. In nutritious attributes the northern product re- ns to purchasers all their money's worth. Alaska's reindeer business has quickly assumed large proportions. The herds aggregate between 6,000,000 and 7,000,000 animals. Shipments of meat to the States last year totaled 3,000,000 worth $600,000. The hides are favored in the tan- nery trade. They make buckskin and light leather of the better sorts. The supply of pelts is immeasur- ably less than the demand and their sale is effected by contract long before they are taken from the animals, Present conditions are certain of further devel- .opment in the immediate future. The deer can be increased to 10,000,000 without impairment of forage areas. approximate 7,000,000 pounds and next year they will total at least 10,000,000."

Alaska's newest industry is permanent and lucrative. Bureau Tells Truth About Fur-Farming. (Seattle Business Chronicle.) The Government is doing a good thing in help- ing modify the popular opinion that fur-farming |is a “get-rich-quick” business. The Bureau of Bio- |logical Survey is combatting that fallacious idea. It deprecates the glamour thrown about this busi- ness, saying “many who inquire about fur-farming have the notion that they can fence in a rugged piece of land, turn loose some fur-bearers, and collect ilarge profits with little effort.” The Bureau has issued a pamphlet, “Recommendations to Beginners in Fur-Farming,” which disposes of the enormous- {profits talk and then gives guidance to laymen who think they must engage in this new industry. should be read also by persons solicited to invest money in any corporate enterprise engaging in the business.
