grew fairly well. I planted four va
rieties of lettuce.
‘•My potato crop generally was a suc
cess, for this country at least. The
best result was from seed potatoes
home-grown, two years. The whole
crop blossomed. I sold several crates
of potatoes at 25 cents per pound, and
have enough left for table u>e all win
ter and seed in spring.”
Thousands of miners and all the sta

Fine Climate on Yukon
**lt is a pleasure to be able to report
the gratifying success in a 1 i the farm
ing undertakings at the Rampart sta
tion during the past season,** says Mr.
G eo r gen son. “For some reason as yet
unexplained the climate conditions in
the Yukon valley appear to he more
favorable to crop production than they
are in the Copper river valley. Kill
ing frosts occur about two weeks later
and the rainfall is nearly double what
it is at t upper Center.
“The land was cropped this year lot*
the third time and a very great im
provement was noticeable in its pro
ductiveness. Aside from the garden,
very little of the land has been fertil
ized at all. The grain this year grew
to a uniform height and the heads
were of good length. This is a very
encouraging feature. It shows what a
beneficial effect cultivation alone has
upon this >oil.“
The articles grown range from gar
den truck to the winter varieties of
wheat, and also include berries and
flowers. Hardly an article grown in
the state of Washington hut has either
proved to he a good grower or lias
shown that at least one variety can he
raised with success.
