THK FARMING POSSIBILITIES
OF INTERIOR ALASKA
The Falrba&ks Record Miner of |
roceut dat© suys: Fred J. Date,
who accompanied H. H. Bennett, the I
United Stites Soil expert sent in
here at tt.o instance of Secretary
Lane, returned to Fairbanks yester
day and reports that the govern
ment man was very enthusiastic
over the farming possibilities of the
country ho saw.
"I was very much surprised my
self at Bennett's euthusiasm," says
Date.
"All the way down Goldstream
from Alder creek he praised the
country we were passing through,
stating that it would raise anything I
and was bound to be converted into
farms and stock ranches just as
soon as tho railway comes in here.
This part of our trip seemed to be
lieve showed the best land.
"At Nenana we went up the river
fully forty miles by pack horses,
examining and sampling the soil at
different points along the way. The
country at tbe lower end of the
Nenana is low and pretty wet, get
ting better the further up you go.
Bennett said the soil was good but
needed draining and drying out.
"Returning to Nenana, we took^
Al, Pauli's launch down the Tanana,
stopping at tho mouth of the Kan
tishna, Toiovana, Baker creek and
at Hot Springs, where we spent a
few hours at each place, looking
over the country and taking soil
samples. Bennett liked it all and I
am satisfied is leaving the. Tanana
valley believing in its agricultural
richness and fitness for cultivation.
He wanted to see the Valley Fair
very much, but could not wait, and
make the down rivet- trip with safe
ty of getting the last boat out of
Dawson. We left here Sept. 3rd.
Bennett's visit and report are bounQ
to be of the greatest good to us."
At Hot Springs, Date left Ben
nett, and came back up to Fair
banks with All Pauli in his launch.
Beunett went on through to Tanana
where he expected 'o catch the Daw
sou boat.

E.UtLV XMAS SHOPPING
AS AID TO BUSINESS
Chicago, Oct. 13—A "Do your
Christmas shopping early" move
ment with a double purpose has
been launched here by the Consum
i ers League of Illinois. <■
"Business everywhere is so slack
that we are trying to get everybody
to do their Christmas buying early
to prevent many working girls from
being discharged," said Miss Els*
Wertheim, secretary of the league.
"If we can get people all over the
country to do their Christmas shop
ping now, or at least to get started,
present trade conditions will be stim
j ulated and there will be a steady
flow of business until the first of
the year when business conditions
should return to normal. This m«y
save thousands of employee, particu
larly girls in the department stores,
Irom being discharged. Of course
it will also prevent overworking
rhem later in the holiday season
when the aching and frazzled nerves
o£_tlie shoji girl makes Christmas
anything but a time of gladness and
good will."
Plans of the campaign include vis
its to heads of department stores
for their co-operation, placing the
question before women's clubs, and
the position of placards advertising
•.lie movement.

illustration, every owner of rail
road stocks or bonds in the coun
try, and every person interested iu
state taxation questions-, and every
person who pays to ride on trains,
is interested in the caso of' the
Norfolk and Western Railroad Co.
against the state of West Virginia.
This is one of the cases -i>et" for
early argument by 'the supreme
court, and is the first 011 the list.
While^harking baei» to the- ques
tion of confiscatory rates, ' the
argument in this case rests on the
point whotheT any one can be
confiscatory, unless the entire rate
system of which it is a part is con
fiscatory. Assuming the *onten
tion of the railroad attorney that
the two cent fare law results in
the company not receiving enough
revenue from its intra-stato pass
enger traffic to yield it a Profit to
be correct, and this is virtually
conceded by the attorneys for the
state, the question is put up to the
court. Is that sufficient to declare
the rate confiscatory?
The state of West Virginia holds
that it is not. ' The stato contends
that all of the business of the Nor
folk and Western within the state of
We6t Virginia is profitable, and that
it is beside the point to pick out
the passenger traffic, and say that
this particular line of business does
not pay. Incidentally, the figures
of the state's experts, ng produced
in the lower courts, show that the
revenue from the 2 cent tickets
gives the company just about, oper
ating expenses, so that a clear case
is established, as this would yield
no return on the investment. The
company's experts figure that it
does not even pay them to haul the
business at the two cent rate, but
that is not the question which is
put up to the Supreme court.
This question is made of more in
terest because of the recent five per
sent rate decision of the interstate
Commerce commission, which sug
gested to the railroads, in denying
Ihe full measure of increases in
freight rates asked for to ' raise
their passenger rates as many of
them were unprofitable.
