There are many rea-| sons for this, the pioneers who came | north were seeking gold. All of the knowledge they had of Alaska and (all the information that was aval |able confirmed the general idea that agriculture in these latitudes was not to be even considered as possible. Many of them came from states where there was vacant pub-| Mc land well adapted to farminz and they could have obtained a farm at home under far better con- ditions. ~They were not farmers, when circumstances forced a few of them to engage in| farming they were easily dLscour-] aged and many of them failed. | “The mining districts { usually | were not adjacent to the sections that contain agricultural lands. The/ population was concentrated around the mining camps and these local |markets were widely scpar.\to:lf i'rhere were no transportation fa-! :cllllles available and it was not pos- | \sible to reach these local markets., {In fact, it is only within the last| ten years that conditions have Ichmed so that the farmers in some districts can enter Alaska markets with their produce. The Alaska Railroad and the system of | auto roads in other sections have| brought some of the best agricul- tural areas within easy reach of many of the larger communities ‘These roads are being extended each year and the opportunities for ag- ticultural development are better than ever before. Food Stuffs Imported “Yearly we import millions of dollars worth of food stuffs, a very| targe part of which could, and| sqme day will, be supplied from our own Territory. How soon. we shall be able to place our own pro-| duce in local markets in compe-| tition with the imported foods de- pends on the people in Alaska. There are unusual conditiony that must be met and many obstacles| that must be surmounted but simi- | lar conditions exist in other coun-| tries and they have been overcome. | If we wish to encourage agricul- tural development in all its phases we must first have a thor- ough knowledge of the conditions at least in our own section of the Territory. | “Not long ago a visitor to Alaska | suggested that “we should first know Alaska and then tell others Bbout it.” We may well accept thx.\" adyice. How many of us really, appreciate the potential possibili- | ties of agriculture in Alaska? How many are there listening in to- night who can intelligently advise| those who may seek information about farming in this vicinity? How many know what agricultural pro- ducts are grown in this section of Alaska?
