SEEKING TO DEVELOP
NATIVE ALASKAN HAT
During the next summer H. W. Al
berts, director of Alaskan demonstra
tion farms, will take steps to demon
strate the feasibility of feeding Alas
kan wild hay to livestock. Mr. Alberts,
on his tour of this portion of the Ter
ritory last summer, was impressed
with the large areas of wild hay and
its possibility as a roughage for car
rying animals during the winter. Hav
ing made inquiries as to the proximity
of suitable areas adjacent to The Al
aska Railroad, Mr. Alberts intends to
bring in machinery and put up large
quantities of hay and use it for dem
onstration purposes at the Matanuska
demonstration farm and among the
farmers along the railroad.
Acting upon the hypothesis that
lowland hay contains too much mois
ture to retain strength while curing,
Mr. Alberts will attack the upland
slopes, where there is a hardier wood
growth. Any area of 40 or more acres
accessible to transportation by rail or
water, will suit the purpose of the
initial harvesting.
If it is found that a hay can be de
veloped answering the purposes for
which it is intended, extension of the
harvesting will be made and this por
tion of Alaska emancipated from the
remainder of the wmrld for roughage,
which in turn, Mr. Alberts believes,
will result in more beef production,
especially where animals may winter
while assisted by a stack of native
hay.
Trappers in the locality of Eagle
are said to have been placed in a
quandry, owing to their being unable
to take out trapperss’ licenses which
are required before they can start
the trapping season. It is stated that
the difficulty is due to the fact that
no blanks have been received by the
commissioner there.

LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
