TERRITORY ARE
BRIEFLY TOLD
t
Farmers, within the shadows of the
Vrctic circle and members of the most
/ *
northerly farmer’s organization in the
,-orld, not only frown on profiteering
by the agriculturalist but have pre
/ented “comers” #on the food supply,
said P. J. Rickert, resident of the Tan
ina Valley * Agricultural association,
member of the Alaska territorial legis
ature and candidate for the federal
narshalship of Alaska. Mr. Ricket
jailed at the Alaska bureau of the
Jhamber of Commerce.
“Our farmer's organization is, I
believe, the most unique one on
jecord,” said Mr. Richert, who built
the first hot house in the interrior of.
Alaska and is the “daddy” of agncui
turists around Fairbanks, having
started farming in 1906, when miners
thought anyone who talked crops was
not 100 per cent efficient mentally.
“Wfe estimate how much garden
produce our section « will require and
raise that amount Our association has
\
a central warehouse. We fix a definite
and fair price for produce and then
sell it, adding a trifle each month. For
instance our price for potatoes after
the crop was dug was five cents a
pound and when July rolled around
the price of spuds in Fairbanks was
only six and one-half cents, which was
less than in the states. Do not think
the Fairbanks people do not have let
tuce, tomatoes, and nice things for the
cable in winter for our farmers grow
these in hot houses in the cold months.
It would be an education to those who
think that Alaska does not have a fu
ture as an agricultural area to see
what we farmers produced last year
and see the prices we sold our product
at”
After deciding how much acreage to i
plant of produce to meet the commun-’
ity requirements, the farmers plant
the surplus to wheat oats and hay, of
which there is a great shortage.
“It will take 500 new farmers ten
years to supply the markets for these
commodities,” said Mr. Rickert <4The
farmers at Fairbanks are replacing
the small experimental mill, which
ground the first whole wheat flou
\
milled in Alaska, with a 25 barrell a
day mill, which will make patent flour,
out of as fine wheat as can be found
on this continent”
m *N
Mr. Rickert predicts Alaskans will
go back to the territory as rapidly as
they came out during war days when
inducements on the outside lured them
away and the return of these old tim
ers will be a good thing for the terri
tory, he said. Mining around Fair
banks is quiet due to the high costs of
transportation, fuel and supplies but
he predicts that with 8 readjustment
the extensive placer and quartz gold
properties will be worked. Two com
panies have made a success of quartz
mining in the Fairbanks district he
laid.
Liginite coal, which has less heat
ing qualities than a cord of wood, sells
delivered at Fairbanks for $9 a ton,
tbi^ coal being mined at Healy River
and brought to the interior metropolis
by the railioad. “Alaska going to be
a place for homes' and it will settle up
rapidly under the right laws,” said Mr.
Rickert He will leave next week for
the east.

paign of national scope to inform the
