Parks_R—;ceives Seed | for Experiment in Grow- ing of Wild Rice Onc hundred pounds of wild rice seed have been received by Gov. S3corge A. Parks with which to ex- seriment co-operatively with Alaska fsportsmen in the growing of thai food for wild fowl. The experi- mcnt was authorized by the last | egislature which appropriated funds 20 provide for the purchase of the seed. Seventy-five pounds will be dis- fributed immediately, 25 pounds being sent to both Cordova and Scward and a like quantity retained | for this vicinity, Next Spring a juantity will be sent to the inter- ior for planting The season Is too late for that at this time. Judge C. Clausen, United: States Commissioner at Petersburg, is al- ready making a similar experiment on his own initiative, He planted some seed in the Blind Slough dis- | triet last fall. This year it had a fine growth. Recently he brought to Petersburg stalks measuring four feet in hcight. Each stalk was ‘neavily laden with grain. It.was not matured, however, largely, it was believed, on account of the ab- nermally wet season experienced this year. Wild rice is a favored food with all varicties of wild fowl: Many sportemen’s organizations in th> States are growing it for their pre- serves. It cannot be grown in salt or brackish water, ‘[resh streams. REV. H. YOUNG ' Attends Two- Ghurch Con-5 ferences While Ab- ‘sent in South The Rev.
