Excerpt from Fourth Report on the Agricultural Investigations in Alaska, 1900 Investigations at the Kenai station were in continuation of those inaugurated the previous season. Owing to a lack of drainage the fall-sown cereals were winterkilled, but spring-sown barley and oats matured good crops and vegetables were reported of fine quality. Mr. H. P. Nielsen, who was continued in charge of the Kenai station, writes that the example of one year's experiments has already done good, as may be seen by the increased number of small gardens in the vicinity of the station. Additional land has been cleared and pre pared for cultivation at both the Sitka and Kenai experiment stations.
