PROGRESS MADE IN ALASKA AGRI¬ 
CULTURE. 
Prof. C. C. Georgeson, who has charge of 
the Alaska Agriculture Experiment Stations, 
has just arrived in W'ashington and reported to 
Secretary Wilson on the agriculture of tlie Ter¬ 
ritory. He shows that agriculture is prac¬ 
ticable on an extended scale. 
The economic conditions prevailing in Alaska 
prevent speedy settlement of the Territory by 
farmers. Transportation is too expensive for 
the poor man to go there and take up land, and 
the farmers who are well-to-do do not leave 
the States. 
A special homestead law for Alaska allows 
citizens of the United States with homestead 
rights to take up 320 acres of unsurveyed land 
for homestead purposes, but the locator must 
pay the cost of the survey, which amounts to 
several hundred dollars. 
Professor Georgeson by crossing a cultivated 
variety of the strawberry which was too tender 
for the climate with the wild Alaska strawberry, 
has produced a large number of hybrids, many 
of which are not only hardy and thrive well in 
the climate, but are very productive and yield 
large berries of excellent quality. He also pro¬ 
duced a number of hybrid barleys by crossing 
varieties excellent in themselves but requiring 
a longer growing season than the Alaska cli¬ 
mate affords, with early maturing varieties 
which are undesirable because they are small 
producers and have heavy beards. Many of 
the hybrids resulting from this cross are early 
enough to mature in the interior of Alaska in 
normal seasons and having no beards can be 
used for hay and fed to farm animals without 
being threshed. This is of importance, for it; 
is becoming more and more apparent that to 
succeed in grain growing, Alaska must de¬ 
velop varieties which are better suited to the 
climate than the grains which are introduced 
from southern latitudes. 
Winter rye and winter wheat can be success¬ 
fully grown in interior Alaska whenever the
