J “There is no reason -why Alaska shouldn’t produce lingen berries,” said Flakstad. “This country can produce easily more berries than either New Foundland or Norway and the berries here are better.

An attempt some 'yesu's ago to get Alaskan whites and Indians to pick the berries, found them asking a dollar a gallon to pick them. * “Such a price is absurd,” said Flakstad. “Back in Norway, as a child of three years, I picked cran- berries. Any youngster with a little practice can pick 100 gallons of ber- ries a day. . . the process of picking simply involves getting a handful of the berries at & grab. '’ 'Hyder and Ketchikan on school matters and spent, one day in Olym- pia on work for the Planning Coun- cil, he reported. | At 20 cents a gallon, which Flak- | stad belleved might be a fair price, it is easily estimated that a person “The berries should be picked ! when they have just arrived at the' ‘ripe’ stage and before they freeze,” Flakstad warned. Packed twenty-one gallons to bar- rel with water, the berries can be kept thus for over a year. Flakstad spoke of the possibilities also in blueberries and other Al- askan berry products. “Alaska has a wonderful oppor- tunity in its berries,” Flakstad said, “And someday the country will take advantage of that opportunity.” — e Alois Senefelder (1771-1834), who invented lithography, was a Bav- arian actor and dramatist. l i new ‘clothes.
