Grapefruit Great
Asset of Valley

While public attention j. focused

aud that the growing ot this la
-iH- fruit in 'ha valley has as~am
ed notable proportions
When the trees nov growing al
come into bearing. the returns for
this Ielieaey will be noted as among
the greatest received ton Imperial

The whole world will be using il
as a breakfast delicacv in few
years and nowhere does it grow To
such perfection rs in this valley. II
: related that Clemenceau. aboard

France, ordered a grapefruit as
nightcap. He said that it was
delicacv he had not know when be
lived in America after the civil
War, and expressed deep regret
at having lived without il for 80
years.
The universal use Of fruit as
part of the daily menu in American
homes has been rotod hv travellers
from abroad, and the custom is rx-
tending to other countries. 1t has
been said that "all Yankees begin
their day by consuming y hemis-
rhere of grapefruit busted with
sugar And when the world comes
to know of the Extraordinary quail
itr and flavor of Imperial grown
grapefruit, its market will not be
limited and il will continue to de.
mand the highest prices as it now
does.
In the early days Of the valley.
much was said about the growing of
citrus fruits here. Experts came
from tie citrus fruit belt to invr3ti-
gate and experiment, but in thcs"

MOVIE CONCERN BUSY

The arrival Of the first contingent Of the Alaska Moving Pictures Corpo- ration. on the Alameda tomorrow is an indication that the efforts of Pro- ducing Manager Lewis and his subor- dinates have been crowned with sue cess. The vast quantity Of equipment on the way goes far to prove that any Legitimate enterprise can be financed in Alaska by Naskans, provided 1t {;as merit. Stockholders in the corpo- ration are assured handsome return on the investment, and Alaska is as sured of much needed publicity when the picture is released in the States
 The character of the men behind the enterprise insured its success from the initial movement Level headed business men like Capt. A. F.. 1athrop, Senator E. F. Chamberlain, Alex Mcdonald, John H. Biggs, George Lewis and hundreds of other Alaskans do not invest their money in an enter prise which does not warrant reas- onable return. Employment will be given to hundreds of Alaskans, and tremendous sums are already being sDent on sets and scenic effects.
 This is the first and only company in the moving picture business which can guarantee bona fide Alaskan pie lures. financed by Alaskans, and pro duced by Alaskan players.

PDIYIESIAIl RACE:
 CAME FROM ASlA

HONOLULU, T. H., Feb. Sine flora of the Marquesas islands reveal conclusive proof that the Polynesian race came out of southeastern Asia to their habitations in the island of the Pacific. Supt Forrest Brown, bishop museum botanist, who has just re- turned from the islands in connection with the museums effort to establish the origin of the Polynesians.
 The presence of the sweet potato and the papaye led Prof. Brown to the theory that the Marquesans visited America as these plants had been ob tained in semi-aropical central Amer ica. Prof Brown said the natives oi the Marqueses who are governed by the French are very civil and exhibit she same generosity and hospitality that prevails among other Polyne- sians.
