 And potato growing pays. Uncle sam has proved this his farm at Fairbanks on the Panama riv- er This locality has grown potatoes for the market for several years past with the object of demonstrating that good potatoes could be in the Interior The farmers in the Panama Valley (which by the way, con- tains 15OOO square miles of land available for rcuure) have taken the hint and nearly all of them have considerable acreage of potatoes Last sea- son. one farmer near Fairbanks estimated his crop ton, the lowest price at which potatoes have ever been sold up to the present time brought him u the nice little sum Of S4.000.
 Potatoes are grown at all four of the government farms in Auaska and four years ago special tests of different varieties with different fertilizers were made at the station at Rampant Alaska (the most Northern of the stations). latitude 65 degrees 30 minutes north It was found that number of varieties were we'll suited to the climate and did well.

 But if the laws command the warden to live with in the penitentary Governor Dunne clearly has dis cretion. The thought that any may be superior to the law is intoerabe. Even when statutes are un pleasant and oppressive they must be obeyed. Any other course is anarchy.
 Destiny has driven Warden Allen from the institu ton he has finely served The honor system meant larger freedom for and greater humanity for all. Although Warden Allen must so, the system must remain. In no sense has the honor system been touched.

 the guilt or innocence of Frank is not involved in the case at all. Gov saton, after careful investigation as a lawyer and sworn official, decided that the evidence was not sufficiently convincing to warrant the taking of Franks lfe so he as bis duty under the cir
