TACOMA, Wash, Aug. 17.-Alfred
Burbank Is investigating the possibili-
ties of plant development In Yukon
and Alaska valleys. These valleys
have marvellous capabilities for root
crop production. he says.
"Give me time" said he. land l
will evolve potato adapted thor
oughly to Alaska conditions. free
from water, equal to any grown In
the world. A properly developed po-
tato will enable Alaska, with thou
sands OF square miles OF fine valleys,
to supply America with potatoes.
Alaska should soon be exporting
cabbages, turnips. celery and other
root crops. Siberian apples should
thrive In Alaska. About 200 farmers
have taken homesteads this summer
in the Susitna and Tanana valleys.
This years potato harvest Will for the
first time supply Alaskan need"

Grenier's name was impaired under in

will love and be loved is a fine art. Field
was a friend.
Now let the world learn at his feet and
follow his example.
The age demands it. A long letter robs
you of time and thus shortens your life.
A vacuous news letter does the same

tends to make us do that which we
ought not.
The missive that contains a grain Of
good hidden in six bushels Of wordy
chaff tires eyesight and temper, turning

his letters today command a price that
those OF the good men just named do
not.
When Gene Field wrote a letter he al
ways made the recipient feel pleased with
