F arn1ing IN Alaska

Long-required diversified farming
is coming in with the families. The
small dairy farm grows more. common
ana many vegetables are grown. In
the region near Fairbanks the baclle-
lor still predominates, and since the
area is adapted TO wheat and pota-
toes, 1t may take longer to introduce
diversified systems.
Southeastern Alaska is rough, rug
ged and covered with timber. Com
paratively little land In this region is
available for cultivation. The rich
farms are in the great Tanana valley,
which, with the Yukon and Susitna-
valleys, has the essentials to make It
eventually the granary Of Alaska, I'm

tiguous territory.
The secretary's plan to visit the
southeastern section was motiyated
by his desire to see at close range the
infant forest industry, other natural
resources and the possibilities for
preservation Of wild life.

Long Search for
Honest Mon Ends

Summitville, Colo.--Tor "a years
Jack Pickens kept secret the location
of peak of gold" in the San Juan
mountains until he could find a. finan-
cial hacker whom he would trust to
help him open the treasure vault
locked by nature.
Today Pickens and Judge Jesse G.
Wiley, the honest man whom the pros
pector found after a search of a quar-
ter of century, are sharing equally
the fortune Pickens discovered.
While prospecting over the hills
about the Little Annie mine in 1904
Pickens stumbled on a protruding
bowlder. He tapped the rock with his
hammer. A piece broke off, revealing.
layer Of almost solid gold. Another
blow dislodged more gold-lined slabs.
Beneath the surface of that bCwlder,
the prOspector concluded, lay peak
of gold. Determining to keep the dis
covery secret, Pickens also resolved
to stay near his potential fortune. He
obtained job with q small force of
miners at the Little Annie and then
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1928-09-07

began his quiet hunt for an honest
man with enough money to exploit the
'.strike."
Several, times the owners of the
Little Annie mine started tunnels to-
ward the golden peak, and Pickens
held his breath. HeSwas greatly re-
lieyed as each Of these projects was
abandoned, one within eighty feet Of
his hidden treasure.
Finally the prospector met the man
whom he could trust. He and Judge
Wiley formed partnership, obtained
longtime leases on 40 mining claims.
including the golden peak, and within
six weeks realized $4,000 from the
ore taken OF only that part of the
bowlder showing above the grass.
Since theD<half million dollars has
been hauled away and yellow metal
worth many times that amount still
Is in sight.
Pickens has a wife and thirteen
children with whom to share the for
tune.
