“The Yanks are coming” is no doubt an unpopular

FRUIT GROWING POSSIBILITIES IN ALASKA
Natives of Norway and Sweden who live in Seward
and other towns on the Alaska Railroad have been for
years telling other residents that apples, pears, cherries,
and peaches can be grown in parts of Alaska. They cite
the fact that those fruits have been grown successfully in
the Scandinavian countries for many centuries, where the
climatic conditions are similar to the climatic conditions
in the corresponding latitudes of Alaska.
But the days of mining excitements and stampedes
brought to Alaska generally a class of men who were bent
on finding placer gold. They cared nothing for other
forms of wealth. Like most people of that early period,
they had preconceived ideas about Alaska that banished
all thought of agriculture and fruit growing.
Year by year, however, the real Alaska has displaced
the old impressions. It is now known everywhere that
Alaska grows garden vegetables the equal in quality and
quantity per acre of the best sections of Washington, Ore
gon and California. Also its possibilities as a grain grow
ing region on a large scale are fast coming to be recogniz
ed.
But it is only within the last two years that actual
demonstration has been presented that Alaska can grow
apples as successfully as any of the northern tier of states.
And a Scandinavian by^birth, Elmer Carlson, at Hope, 70
miles north of Seward, is thd man who makes the demon
stration. He has produced several sacks of apples from
one tree for the last two years, the equal of the best pro
duced elsewhere. This year he planted 100 young apple
trees on his well improved small farm at Hope with the
intention of engaging in a regular nursery trade.
It is now a certainty that fruit trees imported from
the Scandinavian countries would grow readily in the cor
responding climates here.
, An oldtimer- now too old to get out in the hills and
shoot his caribou, moose or sheep- remarked the other day
he would like to see the good old days return, the days
when you could walk into a restaurant, lay a dollar on the
counter and tuck a fine stake, or chops from one of these
animals, under your belt. He also dwelled on the beauties
connected with a scuttle of suds.
LET THE BOYS ALONE
Two or three attempts were made by French radicals
to wreck a special train carrying 250 Legionnaires on
their way to the Riviera. It is a pity the service men can
not go back to France to enjoy a convention without being
confronted with such unnecessary dangers. Of course
the French government and French people do not sanction
such attempts; and it is hoped that the authorities will
catch the would-be train wreckers before the Legion boys
get their hands on them. The Legion is necessarily cele
brating peace, the Legion stands for peace and law obedi
ence; and no greater disrespect, to say nothing of ill will
could, confront them than for some hoodlem to try to
cause them physical disaster while they are on peaceful
pursuits.
That was rather a costly wild pitch today; thousands
of dollars in gate receipts were undoubtedly lost. The
pitcher must have felt like ten cents.
Now that the world series is over we can devote our
attention to the Alaskan dog derbys.
We see by the dispatches where only one wife killed
her hubby today.
Many a poor prune wastes his time trying to knock
off a political plum.
