FtRNING IN ALASK

Alaska and the Yukon are unique in
this year Of poor crops all over the
world. Reports come from those
northern districts that the yield Of po-
tatOcs. small grains and vegetables is
most encouraging. There is a surplus
Of rutabagas Swedish turnipsl which

coast markets. The crops there will
not, of course, make an appreciate
difference in the shortage that we are
feeling. But a successful season so
far north is interesting because tiilagC
there hitherto has been discouraSinG
to such marked degree that some
agriculturists have affirmed that farm
ing in those districts never would pay.
The potato crop is said to have been
the most successful crop in the Yukon.
This very likely is the result Of the
study of soil and climatic conditions
that Luther Burbank made several
years ago. At that time he CAV" some
