THE SIBERIAN TUNDRA.
To build a railway connecting the
Russian settlements in Siberia with
Alaska would necessitate laying
down about miles of track.
The chief obstacle is the Siberian
tundra, which a would have
to cross before reaching
strait. Tundra is a native word
the vast expanse of swamp
and marshland, interspersed with
numberless stagnant lakes,
for thousands of miles
across the arctic zone in Siberia,
n summer time the tundra is like
a wet sponge, into which even a
man sinks knee deep at every step,
and consequently the natives
venture any distance from
home save by lake or river. From
May to October the settlements are
Completely isolated by this vast
ocean of swamp. It is only in win-

snow many feet in depth, that those
