BISHOP ROWE ON
 ALASKA TRADE
Photo by American Press Association.

"There is no reason why Portland should not get a good share of the Alaskan trade. The people of Alaska look with favor on the possibility of gaining commercial intercourse with Portland. am expressing no pre- iudicts. l am stating the feeling of the Alaskan commercial men" These three potent assertions came from the lips of R. Rev, P. T. Rowe, for the past 20 years bishop of Alaska, head of 21 Episcopal miS sions In the Northland, and who bears the distinction of be,%g more familiar with Alaskan affairs than any other man in the most nOrtherl province of the United states. The bishop of Alaska is in Portland, ac- companied by his wife They have just returned from a trip to the San Francisco exposition.
 "I heard 1t stated in meeting of the seattle Chamber of Commerce recently" continued Bishop Rowe, "that there passed through Seattle every year from Alaskan ports com mercial products aggregating in value between $5O,OOO,OOO and S6O, ! OOO,9JO. Of this amount the fisher les alone supply shipments valued at $25,OOO,OOO. This figure is Mound to increase, as Alaska is just beginning to develop.
 T have watched the growth Of Alaska for twenty years and l have discovered that it is just beginning to justify the hopes that I have en- | tgrtaiued for 1t for many years. The building of the government railway has started to open up the immense | territory of the southwestern sec tion-rich In possibilities, both in dustrial and agricultural. The mines in the region of Juneau are just beginning a marvellous de7el- opment, and the entire country Is awakening to it's possibilities.
 "It has been estimated by mana gers of the three largest mining properties in the Juneau section Treadwen, Juneau an AIaska-Gas- tineau-that they will crush enough ore In coming years to send the United States $5O,OOU,OOO worth annually That figure is based on the engineers estimates.
 Due to the promise Of prosperi- ty in the Juneau section the city has increased from a town of g. 800 inhabitants to more than 1O,- OO0.
 "The building of the government railroad has produced the town of Shir Creek, or Anchorage, its more modern name. When the railroad was first conceived there were but a few hundred persons in the town, and now Anchorage Is 8 thriving city ct 5000 inhabitants, with plenty of substantial resources-lumber, fish, agricultural products, etc-tO inc sure a steady and permanent growth"
 Bishop Rowe Is stamped with the spirit of the north country. For 20 years he has battled with the nor thern winters, prosecuting the work he loves and has been so success ful with. Every winter he starts out with dog teams to make the round of his mission stations. Two thousand miles by dog team every winter for 20 winters is part of the travelling he has done in the in- terest of the Episcopal church.
 Last summer he completed a g. loco mile "trip over the entire AL vnft,., Ia hhn Dsee ppTnn6V For

New York, May 3l.-Trading dur
ing the past week was greatly cur
tailed owing to the two uncertainties
with which the market is confronted.
The first of these is the issue which
has arisen between this country ana
Germany, and until the character OF
the German reply to our note is known
| il is reasonable to expect that market
commitments will be made with great
conservatism. The general opinion IN
the trade seems to be that should the
out come be favorable, cotton lutures
would take a decided turn for the bet
| ter; of course the reverse is true, ana
there is no doubt that If the allalr
should take a serious turn, the market
would encounter heavy liquidation. IL
is considerations OF this nature that
are discouraging public interest ana
keeping the spot trade out OF the
market for the time being. SO much
for the nfSt uncertainty
The second is the crop condition re-
port which will be published next
Tuesday Although as stated last
week, this is not OF supreme impor-
tance, still, it will give the trade the
first authoritative line on the start
of the crop. Reports from the belt
during the last ten days or two weeks
have shown such decided improve
ment that all ideas of low condition
report have been abandoned and it is
reasonable to expect, in view OF TINS
climatic turn for the better, that
condition of around so per cent or
above will be indicated. AS pointed
out in previous advices, however
June condition report is far from con
elusive: in 1902 a crop of 10,76S,000
bales was made on June condition
of SIS per cent, while in 1903, on
June condition of 95.1 per cent, the
Weld amounted to only 1850, 900 bales
the acreage in these two years being
practically the same. Although later
on condition will become a prominent
factor the serious consideration at
this time is acreage, and in this con
nection fertilizer consumption, when
unQuestionably will have material
bearing on the final yield. A prominent
authority of the south has recently
made an interesting compilation. He
saws that on general average 140
pounds of lint cotton are produced per
acre without the use of fertilizer Fer
tilizer he claims adds 80 per cent to
production. This would mean, where
fertilizer was used, 21O pounds to the
acre, or an increase of 20 pounds. He
contends that a decrease of 40 per
cent in the use Of fertilizeE is indi-
Gated. which would mean reduction
in the yield of II per cent. and this
as far as the final yield is concerned,
does not take into consideration acre
age reduction which, he claims, will be
at least II per cent. For the time
being therefore, the market will prob
ably continue to be a traders affair,
with moderate swings back and forth.
There seems little question, however,
that prospective supply and demand
conditions would suggest purchases on
the declines which may occur due to
influences other than growing condi-
tions.

COLoRADo'S NEW PEST LAW
An Opportunity for Absolute Cooper
alive Work for the Eradication
of Any Destructive Pests

A few years ago the General As
sembly of the state Of Colorado pass
ed a Pest Law that was more or less
effective, but was vitality ineffective
in some provisions. This law pro-
vided for the organization Of pest
districts, under much the same pro-
cedure as called for in the organiza-
ton of drainage district. If ma
jority of the land owners OF certain
defined district within the county pc
titioned the county commissioners to
form this district, it became manda-
tory upon the commissioners to pro-
coed to form it. Under the new law
the same end is sought, but several
amendments have been added to make
it more workable and more effective.
This new law became effective July u
this year.
The object Of this law was primarily
to admit of some method of aiding the
farmers of northern Colorado to fight
the grasshopper evil that had become
such a menace several years ago. In
that country they seemed to have had
much the same trouble that we are
having here. Most of the farmers
were anxious and willing to go any
limit to eradicate this pest but now
and then you would find someone who
was so unprogressive as to refuse to
go to the trouble, either from laziness
or downright ussedness-which are
almost synonymous.
By this method, a quasi-municipal
district is organized with powers to
proceed with the determination of the
pest, whatever it may be, with OF
without the consent of any recalci-
trant land owner, and get rid of the
trouble in the very shortest time pos.
sible, at the expense Of all. 1t meani
that the material for the poisoning OF
the pests will be purchased in large
quantities at greatly reduced prices
the work is done under the supervis.
ion of experienced men; the clearing
up is done methodically and with
thoroughness. And everyone pays hi!
Just share-no more, no less-and the
thing is done.
In northern Colorado, where tbs
scheme has been tried, it has been 6
remarkable success. Where a few
years ago the farming community wa
The Lamar register. [volume] (Lamar, Colo.) 1889-1952, 1915-07-21

thoroughly discouraged, now there has
been no trouble to speak Of for the
past two years, and many thousands
of dollars are being saved annually,
and at a very inconsiderable expense,
and at but small trouble to the farmer
himself. The organizations have been
kept alive, and by the levyng of a
small tax each year, always have on
hand a small sum sufficient to put an
effective campaign into the field at
the approach Of Danger, thus 'nipp'ng
in the bud" any attack of grasshnp'
pers, worms or bugs Of any kind CT in
fact, any danger that may threaten
the destruction Of crps. A wonderful
law, and one that should be studied by
every progressive farmer in the co'in-
try and an effort made to perfect an
organization, or several of them. C,P-
les of this law can be obtained from
the State Entomologist at Fort Col
