When Los Angeles had a popu- lation of 45,000, I predicted then that within the lifetime of my listeners the population of Los Angeles would increase to a quar- ter of a million. Today it is more than million. I predict now that within 10 years, your city here, Seward, will have a population of at least 25,O0O.
 There is no man in the United States who knows more about Alaska than myself. I have all ways been, since my early days spent up here, an enthusiastic friend of Alaska. If I had the pow CT I could do a few things for Alaska, I could give Alaska a half a million population in a very few years.
 'The time will soon come when Seward will not only be the lar gest and most flourishing city in Alaska but also one of the lead ing metropolises on the Pacific Coast. The reasons are very ap- parent. You have great hinder land capable of carrying for at least 5,O00,00O inhabitants. Sec ond; you have magnificent na- tural harbor. Third; your climate is ideal. But you have something else at your back-door which in the years to come will attract the great industries of the nation white coal; water power!

17S.0OO for 1919, according to figures
released by the states director OF
agriculture. The value Of the fowls
marketed in 1923 jumped to s4,3sO,-
900 as compared with s2,8Oo,o0O for
1919. g.
This phenomenal growth says the
director of agriculture, is largely due
to the superior quality OF both poul-
try and eggs jroduced in the state.
1t is reflected, to, in the egg pro-
duction. Statistics show that there
were 100000 cases of eggs pro-
duced with value of S24,OOO,O00 in
1923 as compared with $4,000 cases
valued at s9,432. 900 in 1919.
Poultry now ranks fifth in import
ance of agricultural products of the
state with production total of s28,-
$500. The year 1929 will boost the
total, 1t is estimated.

MATHEMATICIAN GOES WILD!
MRS. HEN DOING HER SHARE


Another nonstop around-the-world
record was unearthed recently with the
announcement from the office of the
state department of agriculture that
there were 100000 cases OF eggs
produced by Washingtons hens dur
ing 1923.
When this figure was released the
office mathematician grabbed his
pencil and after five minutes Jug
Cling of figures reappeared and made
the flat statement that the hens OF
Washington were laying enough eggs
each year to form band around
the world-a distance of $4,000 rifles
by placing the eggs end to end.
Sounds oddP No. Just allow az
inches for the length of the average
egg; there are thirty dozen to a case.
A few strokes of the pencil will give
you the same answer with a few mil
lion extra. 1H -s
Production figures over a period
Of ten years show that the poultry
industry has made more rapid growth
in the state of Washington than any
other agricultural industry.
Approximately 6,750,00O hens were
