GREATER INTEREST
SHOWN IN FARMING
That agriculture is gaining
a foothold in Alaska is shown by
interest taken in vegetable grow
ing in the interior this year.
Mrs. Ed. Lee of Talkeetna raised
tomatoes and cucumbers which
matured in the open. The cucu
mbers reached such a state of
maturity that the seed can be
used for planting next season,
providing for the introduction of
a more hardy strain of cucum
bers for growth in Alaska.
Many of the prospectors are
taking almost as much interest
in their gardens along the creeks
as the working of the creeks for
gold. James Murray ,who is hyd
raulicKing on Nugget creek, in
the Cache creek district, is tak
ing more pleasure in showing
visitors the ton and a half of
potatoes he raised and the fresh
eggs laid by his flock of chick
ens, than the showing of his stew
kettle containing $6,000 in gold.

MIAMI,—A farther revision

cane, show a total of 365 known
dead and 1,100 injured, of whom
500 were seriously hurt.
The property loss, according
to the revised figures, is great
er than was estimated immedia
tely following the storm, the
latest estimate being $165,000,
000.
