ALASKA NOT BLEAK.

Leo P Bott Jr, of Little Rock, Ark, who h isted Alaska several times, is a diligent frier f the Territory He always is ready and oft oes take up cudgels and fight for the North wht le recognizes injustice anywhere.
 Recently "Believe-It -or-Not" Ripley cartot arred a legend which said
 The nearest country to tropical Hawaii is bleak Alaska.
 This got MT. Bolts goat, so he wrote: Dear MT. Ripley:
 read you and admire you and consider your statements as being authentic. But sometimes you blunder, few instances Of which I know and I now take issue with you for a statement you made in recent cartoon to the effect that "The nearest country to tropical Hawaii is bleak Alaska" I think you have done Alaska a great in- justice by referring to it as you have done with the term bleak" which implies being barren.
 have been to Alaska four times and for the past eight or ten years have read, stud jed and written about Alaska in addition to my travels in various portions and would state that the adjective you have used is quite unfair There are some parts of its coast line that are barren and bleak, just as parts of the coast line in every State in the Union bordering the oceans.
 Just as you have used that term gen. erally to apply to Alaska, I state that generally speaking, Alaska is rich in vegetation and the forests in Southeast Alaska are as dense in the tropics. This is due to the abundant rainfall warmth from the Japanese current, and long hours of sunlight. In summer it is pleasantly warm, and in winter portions of Alaska are no colder than in Denver, Colorado, Wash ington, D. C.. Winnipeg, Canada, and other points but of course, the time of the year and the place has bearing since Alaska is an enormous country, one-fifth the size of the United States
 You would be amazed at the vegetation, the enormous sized vegetables that are grown the beautiful colored flowers the agricultural opportunities, the friendliness of the natives and true Alaskans who have gone there from various parts of country and other countries, and if you would but
