Green Peas Come 10 Seward Market
 En Fall Of Year

It is an ill wind that blows mo- body good, and the fact that Sew lard suffered from recent excess of heavy rains is somewhat dis
 counted by the further fact that
 Sewardites are now eating fresh, green peas brought in from the
 farm of Walter Stanley at Mile Six
 on the Alaska Railroad. Outside,
 right at this moment the farms of the country are being swept by the
 drying winds of fall with Nature taking a rest from the arduous days of spring achievement. Here in Alaska, spring still fingers long, ingly in the lap of Winter and crops come and go in an upset of all traditions. In addition to the green peas that are being served at local cafes, MT. Stanley has fur nished the local market with fine strawberries and new potatoes.

AL LASkA SPIRIT GOOD, DECLARES. .CHAS, GARFIELD.
Finds ditions as a Whole Are Better than
 those in Coast States

"The whole spirit of the people of the Territory in those commun- it.es visited recently is good, they are more hopeful and conditions are better comparatively than pre- vail on the Pacific Coast general ly,@ declared Charles D. Garfield, Manager of the Alaska Depart ment of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce who returned here to- day from a two-weeks' trip that took him as far as Fairbanks.
 Work, MT. Garfield said, is abundant. There is neither idle ness nor poverty to be found any where in those sections he has visited And these conditions are in striking contrast with those on the Pacific Coast generally.
 Enjoy Excursion
 Those who made the Alasha trip with the Seattle Young Mems Business Club. which he accom- panied as far as Anchorage. en- joyed it thoroughly. MT. Garfield declared. After leaving here the party touched at Cordova, Valdez and Seward and went by special train to Anchorage. spending sey- eral hours in that city. Tie ex- ctfsion train was met out about % miles from Anchorage by all
  ai1plane which circled overhead and accompanied the train to An chofage. There they were taken out over the Loop Highway, visit ed Lake Spenard and number played golf during the afternoon.
 Most of the Seattle Club party returned to Seward and went south last week. Twelve, inclnd- ing MT. Garfield. went to Fair banks. Four of these are going cut via the upper Yukon River, two over Richardson Highway, while the remaining members came south last night on the Aleatian.
 Tn IrafSttlon stage
 Fairbanks is now in the transi- ton stage between heavy con struction and operating by the Fairbanks Exploitation Company, MT. Garfield said. However, there is no unemployment. Wages were reduced by the company early this season without any serious labor disturb bance. Men are plen- tiful for all industries in the in terrier.
 The big dredging company is making good progress with its program. It expects to have the dredge on the Chatanika River operating by July 15. and another will be ready lasar this season.
