AIaska's Big
 Juicy Strawberries

Tourists stopping at Haines this summer have invariably marveled al the straw berries which they see exhib- ited at the stores and many comments have been heared to the effect that such fine berries are produced no where else in the world. Several Haines citizens have extensively raised straw berries this summer and sold them aJ the post in town, to the visiting boats and at Skagway. Pro bably several hundred hundred dollars in all was brought to Hanes this sum- mer through the sale of straw berries. The berries grow to a great size, are luscious, and grow in profusion. It is quite possible that in few years crates and crates of berries from Haines and other points in Southeast ern Alaska will be shipped to Seattle for sale. Certainly there are no ber- ries from the Sound points that can compare with the Alaskan product. - Haines Pioneer.
