AGRICULTURE EXHIBIT
ATTRACT THOUSANDS
“I am more than delightful, once
more to be in Seward, and on
my way back to my homestead
near Fairbanks on the banks of
the Tanana,” said J. Austin Mey
ers of Fairbanks who returned
from the States on the SS Alaska
after exhibiting Fairbanks and
Matanuska agricultural products
at Denver. Mr. Meyers continued
on to the North today.
“The Agricultural Exhibit of
Products from Alaska, shown at
the National Stock Show, Denver,
Colo., attracted 100 per cent more
attention and favorable comment
than I had expected. Thousands
of people had a chance to unlearn
what they had learned about Al
aska. At least 50,000 people saw
the display and I believe inaugura
help some in starting inaugura
tion this way.
“People are rapidly learning
that other things are in Alaska
besides polar bears scratching on
icebregs. The exhibit is now inj
a large window of the American
Automobile Association and makes
the best display window they ever
had. They ask for a display for
the coming fall.”

DIVERT PART FUR SEAL
FUNDS ALASKA COFFERS
Two methods by which the Ter
ritory of Alaska may possibly se
cure funds, other than through
placing additional burdens on the
already heavily-taxed citizens of
Alaska, were suggested at the
meeting of the Cordova Chamber
of Commerce, reports The Times.
The first of these was suggest
ed by W. J. McDonald, who pro
posed that the Alaska Legislators
see what they could do, by me
morial or otherwise, to secure
from the federal government a por
tion of the funds which are taken
from Alaska in the fur seal catch.
Mr. McDonald pointed out that
the forestry service returns 35
per cent of all timber or land
sales proceeds, and suggested that
Isimilar measures may be affected
i with regard to the seal.
Thomas S Scott, on this same
subject, further suggested that he
believed the federal income taxes
from other territories are returned
to the territory, and that this pol
icy, if effective in Alaska, would
be greatly beneficial to the terri
tory.
BE IN THE CLEAR
Despite the fact that the Fair
! banks municipal government wa£
called upon for unusually large
expenditures last year the budget
came within $3,000 of balancing
and by the time all tax collectiom
are in this month the treasurj
will have a surplus, according tc
the News-Miner.
