PERSONALITY IN CLOTHES.

It has been often stated that women dress to please men. This statement has been argued many times from both sides without the debaters having ever arrived at a definite and safe conclu- sion. Some people think that women dress to make other women jealous, or as mark of their social position. Re gardless of how women do dress. they should dress to bring out individuali- ty If woman likes certain color she should select it always. If it is dark blue, then let her wear blue even if all the rest of womankind is wearing vivid green. If plain goods are more becom- ing to a woman than figured or striped goods, then she should always wear plain material even if ail her neighbors are wearing plaids. If she needs soft graceful folds to create the appear ance of averdupois. or If she needs to gain the opposite effect. she should adapt the prevailing style to her own individuality That is. every woman should dress to bring out her best points.

FARMING IN ALASKA.

Two articles of interest in the January number of the Alaska Yukon magazine refer to agriculture in Alaska. Those who have always regarded this territory as wealthy only from the products of her mines. fur bearing animals or food fish. will be surprised to know that at the present time great development Is being made in agriculture within the territory One article deals with pro- ducts of the Panama valley illustrat- cd with photographs of wheat. oats. rutabagas, cabbage and potatoes sue cessfully grown in that valley and sold at excellent prices in various mining camps nearby Specimens of these products have been brought to Seattle where they are displayed. and naturally create much interest in the region.
 "A real farm in the Copper val ley" is another agricultural article showing what James Fishe has done with a homestead on the Gakona, which is a tributary of the Copper river. fifteen miles north of Copper Center and at which point the gov ernment has an experiment station. On this farm Fishe has successfully grown grain on a commercial scale. and several different vegetables. The ranch is close to the government wagon road to Fairbanks. one of the large mining towns. and on this roads there are many roadhouses for trav-' elers. so the owner has made his farm highly profitable and has prov ed that he can secure gold by tiliing the soil.-Alaska- Yukon magazine
