Uiq continent, and to overy part
<'f the earth. Yukon liug here a
mighty stream affording an outlet
to tile eea with th<j current and
other huge streams are Nature's
highways to the ocean. The Ameri
can government railway and other
lines are being opened, and will
nord transportation everywhere.
Tlieso vast valleys, unpeopled and
ill today, should thrive in time
wi'!i husbandry and industry.
"I should not draw the line on
ambitions for this country in the
growing of root crops, but believe
fruit also can be introduced. I
"iiM recommend the Siberian app'<
i«ir experiment The apple usually
is grafted on members of the rose
family, l>ut I find nothing growing
here to which the apple could be
-nf. oil successfully. Apples' grow
in t o northern states and in parts
of Cinada where the winters are
as bitter if not quite as long as
bore. The frost should not hurt
lives here. Nature will take care
of them. The thing is to get the
pie suited to the country. I think
any of tho big nurseries or seed
11-s of Canada should be able to
pply those of tho "Yukon who are
ed, and I should bo much
• d to see the experiment made
' )f course the raspberry,the blue
aid tlie currant thrive here,
and are found in abundance. I
uiih r. ujid strawberries also are
in wild in parts of Yukon val
ley. We have some of the Alas
u b* • r> plants at our headquaj
. w I ■ re wo have been experi
menting with them for some time,
and we may got good results,
"tvher tree or plant productions
be possible from experiments

v !1 . i Alaska and Yukon, I have
hop' s of the sugar beets being

I:l hriii. nig out me mama ui
;>3 Ltst adapted to this country,
a in breeding animals, I believe
:i following tlio principle of striv
ing lor the very best. Never be
ti; ej with well enough. Never
bo content to sit down and let it
; • a makeshift. Struggle to make
i:■ > most excellent article conceiy
lo and possible. It is only by
hc:ing to such principles that we
l.avo been able to achieve success
i our i lant breeding. The results
> the result of work, and the
"rk with us is chiefly thinking.
We must learn mora than already
nown or we do not advance. Fer
speeiniens in plant and other
Hfo fire rare. I always have prac
; iced tlio system of elimination of
the defective and the unfit. I do
not save one plant out of a thous
;.:hI, yes, not more than one out
■ ui ten thousand when striving for
■ excellence aud new results.
"With such a rule In mind I
' ould endeavor here to grow a po
o which would bo adapted to this
•ountry, which would become the
re commercial asset of the North
land which would be the article to
rhip to all parts of the continent.
The United States already is find
its potato lands inadequate. The
i:i(>usacds of miles of potato lands
| of this vast North may yet be the
supply field—the great potato bin—
I of America. Why not? The soil
and the valleys are here. Applica
on will get the results.k
" Vou ask me why, if I cannot
•end my time in the North, Bhould
, ! not send someone competent as
substitute. I say intelligent peo
!e casting their lot in this coun
try can get the results, but I re
pret I am not young, and .cannot
i ome to remain a few years to
help reclaim and annex the coun
try commercially to the world.
"Yes, I do not believe so much in
the certain experimental station
work and 'agricultural tests made
• iy fail to get down to the simple
rudiments, and to work from the
ground up. We cannot be in every
Institution, but we have dozens of
chairs cn plant life and plant breed
i'i;r already in universities of the
world, with the number increasing.
"•'I shall be satisfied *if I can see
the world get the benefits of the
best brains on such lines. The ex
periments of my brother and I have
caused much comment and doubtless
: havo brought new articles to the
i world, but I am pleased to Bay
others can do f.he same if they will
: work. One cannot bo idle and got
• he results. My heaviest task is
weeding oilt the non-essentials and
matching, and this is brain labor.
"In our garden and observatories
wo .have single plants of promise to
tho world worth tens of thousands
ot dollars ouch. If such plants
would be stolen duriug our progress
of experimenting the loss to the
world might be Incalculable. There
are always people mean enough to
steal any plant, so we have to ex
ercise the greatest precaution.
"I am sure this region of the vast
North will be understood, and in
lime will blossom like a rose with
productive crops. Tho breeding of
fur animals is a promising industry.
I have been consulted here on fur
animal breeding, but desire to say
but little. I advise against in-breod
ing to any great extent, as I am
thoroughly convinced there is dan
ger In carrying ln-breeding with
foxes or other animals too far.
I "In plant life we practice out
breeding, bringing in new life, in
: troducing new vitality constantly.
New blood is the essenco of vigor."
