THE FARMING POSSIBILITIES
OF INTERIOR ALASKA

The Fairbanks Record Miner of recent date says: Fred J. Date, who accompanied H. H., Bennett, the United States Soil expert sent in here at the instance of Secretary Lane, returned to Fairbanks yester- day and reports that the govern ment man was very enthusiastic over the farming possibilities of the country he saw.
 T was very much surprised my self at Bennetts enthusiasm" says Date.
 All the way down Goldstream from Alder creek he praised the country we were passing through, stating that it would raise anything and was bound to be converted into farms and stock ranches just as soon as the railway comes in here, This part of our trip seemed to be- lieve showed the best land.
 At Nenana we went up the river fully forty miles by pack horses examining and sampling the soil at different points along the way. The country at the lower end of the Nenana is low and pretty wet, get ting better the further up you go' Bennett said the soil was good but needed draining and drying out.
 Returning to Nenana, we took Al. Faults launch down the Panama, stopping at the mouth of the Kan tishna, Tolovana, Baker creek and at Hot Springs, where we spent a few hours at each place, looking over the country and taking soil samples. Bennett liked it all and l am satisfied is leaving the Panama valley believing in its agricultural richness and fitness for cultivation. He wanted to see the valley Fair very much, but could not wait, and make the down river trip with safe ty of getting the last boat out ot Dawson. We left here Sept. 3rd' Bennett's visit and report are bouna to be of the greatest good to us"
 At Hot Springs, Date left Ben nett, and came back up to Fair banks with Ali Pauli in his launch Bennett went on through to Panama where he expected 10 catch the Daw 1 son boat.

illustration, every owner Of rali- road stocks or bonds in the couh- try, and every person interested in state taxation questions, and every person who pays to ride on trains is interested in the case of the Norfolk and Western Railroad Co against the state of West Virginia. This is one of the cases set for early argument by the supreme court, and is the first on the list.
 While marking back to the ques- ton of confiscatory rates, the argument in this case rests on the point whether any one can be confiscatory, unless the entire rate system of which it is a part is con fiscatory. Assuming the Sonten- tion of the railroad attorney that the two cent fare law results in the company not receiving enough revenue from its intra-state pass enger traffic to yield it profit to be correct, and this is virtually conceded by the attorneys for the state, the question is put up to the court. Is that sufficient to declare the rate confiscatory?
 The state of West Virginia holds that it is not. The state contends that all of the business of the Nor folk and Western within the state ot West virginia is profitable, and that it is beside the point to pick out the passenger traffic, and say that this particular line of business does not pay. Incidentally, the figures of the states experts, as produced in the lower courts, show that the revenue from the cent tickets gives the company just about oper- ating expenses, so that a clear case is established, as this would yield no return on the investment. The company's experts figure that it does not even pay them to haul the business at the two cent rate, but that is not the question which is put up to the Supreme court.
 This question is made of more in terest because of the recent five per cent rate decision of the Interstate Commerce commission, which sug- gested to the railroads, in denying the full measure of increases in freight rates asked for to raise their passenger rates as many of them were unprofitable,

The stringent i'm migration rules which Japan has es- tablished made it impossible for them to get passports, so as a last resort they shipped as ordinary seamen aboard the boat, hoping to make their escape when they arriv- ed in Alaska.

 Business everywhere is so slack that we are trying to get eVerybouy to do their Christmas buying early to prevent many working girls from being discharged" said Miss Elsa Wertheim, secretary of the league.
 If we can get people all over the country, to do their Christmas shop ping now, or at least to get started' present trade conditions will be stim ulated and there will be steady flow of business until the first Of the year when business conditions should return to normal. This may save thousands of employes, particu- larly girls in the department stores, from being discharged. Of course fl will also prevent overworking them later in the holiday season when the aching and frazzled nerves oEthe shop girl makes Christmas anything but time of gladness and good will"
 Plans of the campaign include Vis- it's to heads of department stores for their cooperation, placing the question before women's clubs, and the position of placards advertising The movement.
