The Land and Industrial Depart
ment is in communication with the
superintendent of the dining car ser
vice of the Northern Racilc railroad
with reference to furnishing that
railroad with large size potatoes,
weighing a pound and a halt and over,
to be made a special feature on their
dining cars. Information has been
secured indicating that the railroad
will be glad to advertise such po
tatoes on the menus as “Alaska Great
Rig Baked Potato." The matter is
now being taken up with the Mata
nuska farmers with a view of ascer
taining how many tons of such po
tatoes can be furnished.
This will provide an excellent
means of calling the attention of tin*

hopes to obtain the co-operation of all
the farmers and business men in this
