Try and they express as their opinion.
Dased on experience, that farming and
gardening a not be made a success
in Alaska.
The following vegetables can be
grown in Alaska. For convenience
they may be divided into three groups.
according to their hardness and
ad~aptability to climate and environ
ment.
Group 1.-Radish, mustard, turnips,
kale, lettuce, orach. These can be
grown throughout the whole coast re-
glon and in the interior northward OF
the Arctic circle, nearly to the Arctic
ocean, in favorable seasons n in
picked localities.
Group 2.-Carrots, parsnips. parsley,
peas, cress, cabbage, ca%uliiower. broc-
coli, Brussels sprouts, kohl-rabi. on
ions, spinach, endive, leek. beets. no.
tatoes, rhubarb. and among the herbs.
caraway, catnip, marigold, mint.
thyme. These can be grown every
where in the coast region in Alaska.
and in the interior nearly to the Arc
tic circle if the gardens are selected
with due reference to shelter and ex-
posure to the sun.
Group 3.-Asparagus, beans. celery.
cucumber, squash, satisfy. These can
be grown in favorable seasons IL
planted in warm spots and given the
proper care and protection.
Vegetables which can not be grown
in Alaska out of doors under ordinary
garden culture, though they are COM
mon in the states, are: Sweet corn,
melons, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant,
okra, pumpkins. People often call for
seeds of these, but ordinarily it is
wasted effort to try to grow them.
However, with fostering and in warm
seasons some of these may even yield
a partial success.

MAMMOTH TRUST

~ TEEL TRUST GARY, chairman OF
the board of directors of that or
~ ganization, is in London for the
avowed purpose of uniting all the steel
manufacturers of the world in the big
gest trust the world has ever endured.
Mr. Gary, as BELTS chieftain of the
steel trust, possesses a gall which is
not merely monumental. 1t is Himala-
yam. In an airy, easy, patroniYng style
he told the foreign steel interests, to
the representatives of which he was
expounding the virtues of combination.
that they must not mistake President
Roosevelt for a foe OF trusts-in other
words, that they must not take the
president of the United States Sc
riously!
''The manufacturers of iron and steel
of all countries should be working to-
gether, with and for one another" said
Gary. II do not advocate anything
antagonistic to the laws or public well
fare. What propose is the utilization
of all our opportunities for the adj
vancement of all our interests-a close
connection and a better understanding;
full and free interchange of ideas and
information by one to another concern
ing all business questions, and an Or
ganized committee of men, whose ad-
vice should always be followed"
When Mr.. Gary is abroad, out Of
reach of the big stick, he has the cour-
age OF his convictions. While deter
mined effort is being made by all the
far-seeing statesmen of the day to
smash the trust system before it en-
slaves both capital and labor, Gary
sees a beatific vision of the whole
round world trust bound, with all kinds
of industry organized for the benefit
of the trust magnates, and with hui
manity toiiing and moiling for the sake
of world presidents and world directors
and members of the organized world
committee whose advice should al
ways be followed"
Well, in this prodigious dream of
Gargantuan hoggery Gary is justified.
He Is reasoning from the effects of
liar causes. He is logical. But it is
awesome to think that the ambitions
of the trust system, If unchecked by
the election of an American Democratic
president, will make their next practi-
cal purpose nothing less than the en-
slavement Of the entire industrial
globe.

general sanitary arrangement of the
the world.
The educational aspect of this great
institution is a strong and commenda-
BILE feature, filling place in the life of
Los Angeles which but for 1t would re
untitled.
Educational advantages of a high
order are provided, and a young man
who is backward in any study may
have :. chance of overtaking others
who may have been more fortunate.
Every facility is offered for amending
an incomplete or neglected education.
while no matter how well informed or
well educated young man may be, he
can add to his sum of knowledge.
At the Y. NJ. c. A. members will have
an opportunity of taking advantage of
everything which goes toward the
making up of an all around training,
moral, mental and physical.
For young men who live In the build
ing the Y. NJ c. A. provides a genuine
and attractive home. When a member
takes up his abode there the entire
building is at his disposal, and he can
attend lectures and entertainments If
he wishes. Indeed, the young man who
makes the Y. M. c. A. his headquarters
will not only have all the comforts and
luxuries of home life, but many adj
vantages that are not to be found in
the homes of people of small or mod
crate means.

BANK GUARANTY

NHE first legal test of bank guar
anty his been made in Oklahoma
u and 1t has been declared consti-
tutional. In attacking the plan claim
was made it taxed one person for the
benefit of another and took away q
mans property without due process OF
law. An appeal will be taken at once
to the United States supreme court,
but as the principle involved is really
one of insurance, the friends of bank
guaranty are not alarmed.
When insurance was first introduced
into the business life of the United
States all kinds of objections were
made to it. Not only was it charged
that it amounted in effect to using one
persons money for the benefit of an
other, but it was held 1t would produce
and increase risks. Although in con-
nection with insurance vicious prac-
tees may have been INDUCED in by
individuals, the salutary nature of the
general principle has never been ques-
toned, and he who would talk of a
SUSPENSION of the entire insurance sys-
tenn would be regarded as candidate
for a madhouse. Opposition to an ex-
tension of the insurance principle to
banking in the form of a guaranty of
bank deposits is to be expected, but
the ultimate triumph of this reform
may be anticipated confidently.
