“No matter how splendid
the ideals behind an organi
zation engaged in commercial
enterprise, or the amount of
money, time and energy used
to breath life into a project
of the magnitude of the one
under discussion, ultimate sue
cess, aside from the human
element, is dependent upon
the sale and distribution of
the product. Let’s take a look
at the markets—those that are
at hand and those that can be
cultivated.
Anchorage, with a popula

at the gateway to the valley.
It is a thriving, bustling lit

Alaska Railroad, and filled
with energetic merchants who
deal over a wide area.
“A survey shows that $260,

can be raised, graded and pro

sold each year by Anchorage
merchants.
“Through Seward, Coastal
terminal of the Alaska Rail
road passes $750,000 worth of
products, all of which can be
supplied from the coopera

The home market for milk,
eggs, cheese, butter and fresh
vegetables should be limited

produce.
“Anchorage is also the av

link between the valley and
