In his an nual report the Secretary of the In terior, Mr. Lane, forecasts the day when this meat will be sent here from Alaska, in large quanities. Twenty-five years ago there' were no reindeer in Alaska. Our Govern ment arranged for the importation of 1200 of the animals from Siberia and Lapland. Some were domesticated, others were turned loose in the Alas kan forests. They have increased in numbers and there are now large herds of them, both tame and wild. The reindeer have been of great benefit to Alaska. They do not mind the cold. They are docile, may be driven like horses, and are swifter. They can thrive on the coarse forage of the woods. There flesh is much like beef, and their hides makes the best of leather. Current Events.
