All the reindeer of Alaska, includ

o: til ? reindeer will be tho ultimate
| "alvation of the Eskimos.
The meat of the deer is used at
j tim?s in Xome, but the chief mar
I ket for years to come will be out
side of Aiaska, in the populous
j centers of the states and else
where. At present it is considered
the wiser course to l.eop as macy
| deer as possible for the purpose o'
! increasing the supply, but in a few
j years it is apparent that the ani
i mals will increase to a number that
| will make their exportation a ne
I "essity. From that time forward
the native will be provided with an
inexhaustible source of supply for all
their wants, and the reindeer will
almost certainly become the foun
dation cu which the civilization and
self reliance of the Eskimos will be
built. It seems to be evident that
the herding of the deer will cause
the natives to develop into an indus
trious and comfortable people of
herds ind flocks.
At the present there are about
six reindeer to every native on the
peninsula.—Nome Kt-.gget.

near presence of its author. The
mosquito, however, like the pussy
willow, is said to be a harbinger of
spring, and being so that delightful
reason of the year mast be close at
