 IN SEATTLE

SEATTLE, May 13 Special Cores pOnderance of Daily Times). - Forty miles of steel will be laid on the government railroad between Anchor age and Nenana this season, and plans are being made to have the road in operation over it's entire length of nearly 500 miles by January, 1922, according to Col.

 ALASKA BERRIES
 Standing in the Alaska Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce, MT. c. c. GeOrgesOn pointed with pride to a quart jar filled with ten Alaskan strawberries, and to a sheaf of fine wheat matured in ninety days and barley which matured in eighty-eight days from seed. MT. Georgeson is at the head of the experimental work of the department of agriculture in Alaska. When he started his work and made predictions of Alaska's agri- cultural possibilities in the early days he was laughed at and called "The Alaskan Farmer" Mr. Georgeson is enthusiastic over the agricultural possibilities of Alaska despite the handicap of government neglect. He says: Alaska can support five million people on products of the territory and have quantities left for shipment. We can raise everything for human consumption except tree fruits like apples, pears and peaches Wheat of the finest variety can be grown. At one of the experimental stations 314 bushels of wheat was threshed from 13.6 acres. Eleven acres of oats yielded 776 bushels. All kinds of vegetables and berries as large and fine as those of any section are grown. Agrlculturally speaking, Alaska has gone over the top in it's fight to prove to the world that 1t can raise grains superior to those Of many sections, and that it is sur passed by none in the raising of crops in general. Now our program is to populate Alaska. Our agricultural lands are half again as large as the state of Washington, and there are 100000 square miles of fine soil suit able for grains and crops" The farm CTS in the Fairbanks region last year raised over 5000 bushels of grain.
 Mr. Georgeson, before his return to Alaska, will go to Iowa to pur- chase stock to be sent to Matanuska. Just as in picking seed for Alaska fields, MT. Georgeson is endeavoring to choose a hardy type of cattle for the valleys of the territory, and it has been found that the milking short horns are most suitable for Alaska.

League says you must not have any
such interference as that in the
business of the world
1--WE are very much in the same po-
sition that the United States was in
way back there when the constitution
was first placed before us, and there
came that great question whether or

think there was no obligation involved
in accepting the constitution Of the
United States? There were many
people then who felt just like the OPP
ponents of the League feel. We must
not go in, we can't tell where it will

obligation to sustain the federal con-

Edmonton, Alta, Oct 25.-Farm-

clare they expect the remaining por-
ton of the issue to be taken by rural
investors.
The bond issue was offered to see
government as an experiment to see
whether money for the provincial
treasury could be raised at home.
Former issues of larger amount had
been taken by bond dealers in the
East. This time an opportunity was
given provincial buyers with an issue
of 100000. This has been more
than half subscribed. The bonds are
in denominations of 800, $500 and
81 900 and bear interest at per cent.
The interest the farmers have
shown in the bonds has made this do

NEW JAPANESE LINE
TO SOUTH AMERICA.

Toxic, Japan, Oct. 25.-What is re-
garded by some as a part of Japan's
answer to Americas extended ship
ping activity is the Japan-South
America line of the Osaka Shosen
Kaisha Steamship company, which
will start operations under govern
ment subsidy on October rs. The
line is to operate between Kobe,

have Cuba, Los Angeles and San

LOST MILLION
In PURCHASE OF
GREEN GRAPES

San Francisco, Oct. 25.-Green
grapes are not the same as ripe
grapes.
The obvious truth of the statement
is now corroborated by Eastern grape
buyers who, this season, suffered a
loss of $1,000,O00 because they could
not be convinced that the green grape
in no way resembles the ripe grape.
ter in the grape history of California
vineyards.
The Treasury Department ruled
that misunderstanding cider and fruit
juices may be made at home or at a
custom mill, but must be used exclu-
sively in the home.
The Eastern grape buyers, deducing
that the people, especially foreigners,
in New York and other Eastern cities
could crush their own grapes accord
| ing to the law and then allow them
| to ferment not according to law, came
to California looking for grapes The
grapes were on the vine, and green.
| But that mattered little. Fancy fig
| ures and clamoring on the part of the
| buyers gave them the grape crop.
But the green grape has no sugar in
| it. Therefore it will not keep-even
| if refrigerated. The green grapes
| were shipped East and when they
| reached New York they were a tota
| loss.
| Now that the grapes are ripe East
| ern buyers are slow in making con-
| tracts. But E. M. Sheehan, presiden
! of the California Grape Growers as
sociation, believes that sooner or later
the tide will change, and grape will
be in great demand, but not green.
