JUNEAU, Aug., 22, (JP)—Alaska is
capable of Supplying itself with suf.
ficient vegetables, small fruit and
dairy products, reports Secretary
of Agriculture Jardine after a 3_day
trip throughout Southeastern Alaska.
While the fisheries are now the
most importUnt the Secretary believes
the pulp and paper industry is prom,
ising. While he considers it possible
to carry on a pulp industry in the face
of competition from Canada yet it
may not come about for some months.
He is not enthusiastic abut bring,
ing farmers into the Territory because
th'ey would find it too difficult to
market their product. He leaves on
Friday, in the Bureau of Fisheries
vessel Brant for Seattle.

THOUSAND SHEEP
TRIAL OF WESTWARD RANGE
FIRST THOUSAND HOLDS PRO
MISE GREAT INDUSTRY
After making a complete circle cf
the Islands of Kodiak, Afognak and
Sitkalidak, during which they land°d
several times and went inland, Jack
McCord of the McCord-AJaska com
pany, Seward, and Seddon Taliaferro
of Rock Springs, Wyoming came back
to Seward Su'nday. Mr. Taliaferro
continuing on his way to his home.
The result of the trip which was to
determine in the mind of the Wyo
niing stockman the feasibility of rais
ing sheep and cattle on Sitkalidak
and the Kodiak group, is that Mr.
Taliaferro will immediately advise
his associates upon his return to Wyo
ming to ship at once 1,000 head cf
Wyoming range sheep to Sitkaii'Mt
in the care of the McCord-Alask-;
company, leasers of that island. After
watching progress through the coming
winter, if the sheep fare well, as is
expected, it will mean the importation
oi 100,000 head of sheep for the Kod
iak group and perhaps other islands
to the Westward. Wyoming sheepmen
through need of additional range, are
■looking in this direction, and if the
winter range of the islands proves
satisfactory they will move stock to
j‘he .North in large numbers, bringing
into being a great industry tributary
to Seward.
‘Mr. Taliaferro, who is an expe-d
eneed stockman and a son of a weal
thy banker of Rock Springs, was sent
here to make an unbiased inspection
of the Kodiak group as a possib’e
stock range.” said Mr. McCord, “He
heads a coterie of sheepmen of the
intermountain country in the stages
and his opinion will carry final weight
with them. Through my own experi
ence and that of others in the stack
raising that has already been aceom
plished by the MoCord-Alaska com
pany and the Aleutian Livestock co’ii

pany, there is absolutely no doubt ir
my mind about the success that will
follow this importation of 1,000 heal
and that means undoubtedly that
many more thousands will follow. We
have proved already that the climate
to the Westward is ideal for‘sheep
and cattle and that the range is suf
ficient for all the year-round grazing.
We know also that a market for our
meat and wool and hides will be easi
ly developed, part of it being loeai
in the summer time but more impor
tant the shipments that will eventual
ly be made to Outside markets di
rect."
Mr. McCord said that the proper
ties of the McCord-Alaska company
on the Sitkalidak were in good shape,
and that Mr. Taliaferro was very
favorably impressed with the beauty
of the island and the location of the
ranch. The new dock is practica’Iy
complete for the landing of passen
gers and freight at the company
i
headquarters where a small village
is building up. In addition, to the
sheep and cattle already on the is
land, the McCord-Alaska company ?s
conducting a blue fox farm there and
will also introduce muskrat this fall.
