YEARS JOURNEY 0SIBERIAF FULL
 OF INTEREST

Captain Axel Olson, formerly of Knik and Matanuska, where he located a homestead in 1914, has arrived in Anchorage from Anadyr, Siberia, on the steamer Olive, says the Anchor age Times.
 The captain, with Mrs. Olson and sons Laurence, Clarence and Edward, and Engineer Beaulette, left Seattle for Siberia about the middle of Au- gust of last year on their own boat, the Olive, which is schooner-rigged vessel of about sixty-ton size and espe- cially built for the trip, under the per sonal supervision of Captain Olson.
 From the brief account that Captain realize the dangers and hardship of the undertaking.
 The object of the Olive expedition was trading and prospecting. The captain states there seems to be no large quantities of fur; the country visited is a good one from prospect ing point and that as soon as govern mental conditions in that section or the old Russian empire become safe and settled there is bound to be big influx of prospectors and miners.
 The Hudson Bay Company has be- come interested in the country, and large amount of merchandise was shipped in to that country by the old pioneering concern this year. The Hudson Bay Company is shipping everything from British Columbia and Japan.
 Captain Olson states that just be- fore leaving Siberia a large party of Japanese landed near where he and

motion picture films of the elusive Alaskan grizzly.
 During their stay in the bear coun- try 19O different brown bear Gas near ly as they could figure) were seen, tWenty-eight being seen in a single day. Some of these bears were seen on such numerous occasions that they were given names, such as "The Mur- phy Family" the "O'Flaherty Family" Nick Carter" etc. There were twen- three different brown bears filmed, some on several occasions, with a to- tai of over 5000 feet of film taken. Generally unsuspecting and without knowledge of the presence of the pho- tographers, the bears were photo graphed in most of their daily habits wrestling, playing, standing up, sit ting down. fishing, etc. They were filmed sngly and in groups of two, three and four Some interesting pie lures of cubs and their carrying big salmon out of the streams were pro- cured.
 Evidence of the real "kick" that will be embodied in the films is indicated by the fact that the photo graphers were on several occasions compelled to grab their cameras and n n hnn,C n oIrni1 ChnNtIno c the bears that came too close. On one occasion the camera was aban- donod with barely enough time to grab the guns and run.
 About one-half of the films were feet from the camera, with some as close as twenty yards away.
 Also caribou and other game ami mals were filmed, MT McCracken hay ing already used over 14,000 feet of film in the undertaking.
 After a short stay in Anchorage MT McCracllen will return to Kenai Lake, rom where He VIII So luLO tLp HlOOSc country to finish up his series of game pictures; after which he will go direct to New York City to arrange for the releasing of the pictures, which will l be shown under his own name. "Yes, got what I am confident will be a wonderful series of films of the Kodiak grizzly as he is popularly known, said Mr McCracken. But I owe the success of especially that part of the undertaking to no one but Andy Simons. It is my plan, providing I meet with a continued success, to re- turn to Alaska again in the early spring for some more extensive mo- tion picture undertakings"
 Mir. McCracken has many friends in Anchorage, having spent the greater part of the time since 1916 in the Ter ritory. He was at one time employed in the engineering commission, and has also been interested in the pro- motion and development of certain local mining properties.

Noting Picture Mdn Has Thrilling Trip Thru
 WestlUurd Islands

Harold MCCracken of Columbus, Ohio, widely known as a big game hunter and writer on subjects pertain ing to Alaska and Alaskan wild life, has arrived in Anchorage after an eight months trip along the Boring sea coast and in the home habitat of the big Alaska peninsula brown bear, where some filming was done that is destined to give new thrills to the American patrons of the silver screen, says the Anchorage Times.
 Leaving Seward on the January sail ing of the mailboat Starr MT. Me Cracken and party went to Kanatak, where native dog teams were hired to take him across the peninsula and up the coast to the district around the mouth of the Kuskokwim. But due to the unusually mild winter and the un- frozen state of the various lakes and rivers it was necessary to cross, this route was finally abandoned, and the party proceeded to the vicinity of Her endeen bay. At that place old-time Eskimo potlach and folklore dances were resurrected and staged for the movie man.
 From Herendeen bay later attempt was made to reach the Kuskokwim this time by crossing Bristol bay in a power boat. But after having the boat swamped in a storm and losing the entire outfit with the exception of the movie camera. the party pro ceeded to Unimak island, where the big attempt to film the brown bear was attempted-and accomplished.
 On Unimak Island the party was joined by Andy Simons, premier o, Alaskan guides, to whose keen knoWl edge of old Ursus MT. McCracken ac credits the success of that part of bis undertaking.
 After a rather unsuccessful siege of hard work on Unimak island the party proceeded to the district lyin& along the Boring sea side of the Alas ka peninsula between IZembeck ba! and Nelson lagoon, where the entirt summer was spent in what is conced ed to be the greatest bear country o1 the continent. Travelling on thu streams and lakes by canvas boats which were portrayed from one rive to another, the entire country wa studied, and daily habits of the biz bear were noted and formulated, th' partv. of necessity travelling for mile at a time without so much as leaving footprint for the suspicion of olt Ursus.

LAKE CITY, 6; OCALA, 1

The last game of the series with
Lake City was not so good an exhibi-
tion of the national sport as the first
two games. The Ocala team had a
bad inning in the seventh and before
they succeeded in retiring the Ter
rors there were four runs piled up ON
the two that Lake City made in the
first inning. Our boys did not play
as tight game of ball in this game.
They allowed five chances to slip thru
their fingers. Williams pitched for
Ocala and held the hard hitting Ter
rors to six hits while we secured eight
safeties off Goodbread. Easterly got
a three-bagger in the first inning and
Harrigan took one for two bases in
the third. Ocala made her only run
in the eighth.

AUXILIARY MEETING

The American Legion Auxiliary

with a good attendance and its usual
enthusiastic readiness for service to
the boys who did so much for US. Be-
sides attending to several matters of
Importance, we received two reports

was from our faithful and efficient

of that work, Mrs. Edward Drake,
that tthe bronze markers ordered by

A CANNERY NEEDED

Every enterprise needs capital, a
thoroughly good management, judg-
ment and up to date methods.
Right here in Summerfield there is an
opportunity for a business investment
that will pay, we believe, handsomely.
Mr.. w. E. Lee of Plant City, has
come to Summerfield with one of his
big packing houses and in doing so
has invested large sum of money,
and further, his coming here has en-
couraged our truck growers. Mr.. Lee
is level headed business man and
would have invested in our section
had he not seen far ahead and that
the opportunities in this section were
the best. We refer to Mr.. Lee to
show others who have the capital
that investments here will pay.
This season hundreds of acres of
tomatoes were grown and as only
the fancy fruit is accepted at the
packing house for shipment, our
growers hauled back to their farms
hundreds of bushels of Gull tomatoes
and many growers left their culls at
the packing house rather than haul
them away; these to be dumped in
the woods to rot or eaten by roam
ing, ticky cattle and stray hogs
Are these culls of value or good for
anything. They are. If they had
been allowed to ripen on the vines
the growers could have realized
enough to have paid for hauling the
entire crop, had we had a cannery
here where the ripe culls could have
been sold.
Next year and the year after, the
Gull tomatoes will be dumped in the
woods to rot; it seems almost 6
lerime. Then why not some one with
capital come here and put up can
lnery.
Florida imports hundreds of thou
sands of canned tomatoes which il
unnecessary. The demand could b.
met if chain of canneries were es
tablished at various points in tn,
Estate where tomatoes are extensivel,
grown.
We feel sure our truckers woul.
cooperate with the Gamers in furnish
ling them with ripe fruit throughou
, the season; also there are other vege
tables, citrus and other fruits in sea
: son that would keep a cannery bus
the year around. The opportunit
: is here for a paying business.-Sum
