VALUABLE CROP OF HAY FROM
 THE MATANUSKA
Believed That $60, ,000 Will Be Realized This Year by the Farmers of
 the Valley.

ANCHORAGE, Sept 10. - About $60 900, it is expected, will be real ized this year by the farmers of the Matanuska Valley on their hay crops In the neighborhood of SeO or 1000 tons of hay, with oat hay predom. mating and the rest timothy sand alfalfa, will be harvested. This years yield of hay Is the first of any consequence in the Matanuska Valley, which is thirty-four miles North of Anchorage on the Govern ment railroad. Hay will be only a minor part of the agricultural pro- duction of the Matanuska Valley.
 The chief crop. this year as last year, will consist of root vegetables, such as potatoes, futabagas, beets, carrots and cabbages. The acreage in potatoes is not so extensive this season as last season, but the qual- ity of the produce is expected to be superior. The vegetable yield will be considerably in excess of the de- mand of the Anchorage market, and the effort, initiated last Spring of selling in other markets on the Al aska coast, will be continued with this seasons crop.
 Seeding was late this Spring and the harvest will be correspondingly late this Fall.
