SEN. FLETCHER. May ask you if that green the map indicates lands actually in enl,i- vation possible of cultivation?
 COL. sTEEsE. Possible cultivation Farming in Alaska has developed only to the eN- tent of what the local communities require in pro duce, Around Fairbanks which is the center of supply for tie entire Interior of the country they have extensive farming, raising whep oats, and other cereal crops. They raise any grain ex- eept corn. In the truck gardens they raise all kinds of vegetables except melons We raise eab- haee, cauliflower celery. lettuce turnips and poa- toes.
 SEN. FLETCHER. I am afraid that does not appeal to l could live q country where they do not have roasting and melons
 COL. sTEEsE. The is too short and the nights too cold for melons and corn but you would be astonshed the luxurious crops of these hardier plants that have men toned Potatoes and turnips will grow magnd- eenty and cabbages and caulifower of very delicious quality.
 SEN REED pENNA What do the green patches indicatee
 COL. sTEEsE. Those are areas that are capable of cultivation They have not been fully developed at all. These are various towns both in the Interior and the coast which raise their own vege ahles garden truck. etc. They raise in the Fairbanks district considerable wheat: they have gristmill there which grnds their own four and this wheat raised in the interior Alaska has taken the first prize the Minneapolis fair least once as hardy northern wheat. equal to the best Alberta wheat.
 That is capable of supporting a popula ton much larger than it has. The primary activity in the interior is mining, which requires relatively small population, compared the pro- duction of the precious metals secured.
 SEN. FLETCHER. Where is the mining taking place?
 COL. sTEEsE. The mining is all over Last season l made quite extensive trip through Cut the Territory of Alaska, starting in May and getting back in September.

ASSOCIATED Press Sports Editor.)
The pride and tradition of the
Waner family Of Ada, Okla, for
years has rested in the fact that
dad" Waner once had an offer to
play ball with the famous old Chi
cago White Stockings. But the clan
now has a greater and two-fold
badge of distinction-the presence of
Dads two, strapping boys, Paul and
Lloyd, as regulars in the outfield Of
the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Even more remarkable than the
rare spectacle of brothers patrolling
the same outfield is the sensational
manner in which both have jumped
to fame in their first year under the
big top.
Paul, who celebrated his 9th
birthday today, came to the Bucc,-
neers with reputation as slugger
gained on the Pacific coast. He cost
Barney Dreyfuss something like
$4,000 but convinced the Pirate
leading the club in batting last year
with a mark of .335 that also put him
around the top of the leagues cout-
ing list
Paul's "little brother Lloyd. just
turned 21, jumped to the majors
from the obscurity of Columbia in
the South Atlantic association, where
he exhibited the family's traditional
batting wallop. He ousted the vet
eran Barnhart to start the season in
left field for the Pirates.
The Waner boys ascribe their hit
ting proWess not only to the fact
that they were born and raised in
baseball atmosphere, but also 10 their
"corn cob practice"
81 have never batted curve ball
thrown by any pitcher that was as
hard to hit as the cobs the boys used
to throw at me down on the farm"
Paul says. "A corn cob, thrown hard
enough, just naturally takes al! kinds
of unusual shoots and jumps. We
used stick for bat and played that
game every day in the week. That's
where | learned how to fellow the
ball"
Only one other family, so far as
modern records 20, rivals tho Waner
clan in having brothers in similar
positions on the same major league
team. The Barnes boys, "Zek6" and
Jesse, were together on the Giants
pitching staff for several seasons but
Jesse now wears a Brooklyn uniform.
The Meusels, Bob and Emil, both are
cutfielders but in different leagues.
The Pirates would have smashed
all records by having two sets Of
brothers in the fold if Guy Morrison
had made the grade as pitcher. The
brother of. the veteran "Jughandle
Johnny" Morrison, was released
after the spring training trip.
II may or may not be taken as AMI
omen for another good year for Babe
Ruth. but the big hitter's first 1927
homer sends him off on the clouting
trail one day ahead of his record
breaking 1921 schedule. He hit the
