" WANTS TO BOOST
LOCAL PRODUCE
The splendid idea ot co-operation
between the farmer and business
man has reached Alaska and Mana
ger A. Christensen, of the land and
industrial department of the Alas
kan Engineering commission, has
been working on a concise plan for
some time that is about to be put
into action. The co-operation plan
is being successfully carried out In
many of the states and has worked
to the mutual benefit of the farmer
and business man. This can be done,
here and the meeting of the trus
tees of the Anchorage Chamber of
Commerce and the committee of the
Matanuska farmers, held last week
in Anchorage, resulted favorably and
a general plan of co-operation was
“ decided upon at this meeting. How
ever, Manager Christensen plans to
go more into detail and' show the re
sult of earnest attention to the mat
ter and, with the assistance of the
farmer and local business man will
be a great advantage to all parties
•oncerned.
The slogan of this campaign will
be to use the products “Grown in
Alaska," and deserves the considera
tion of the. people, more especially
the business man, the prospector
and the mine operator. Mr. Chris
tensen calls upon these people for
_ assistance and asks them to purchase
i the Alaska products in preference to
the produce of the states, everything
being equal. There is no reason
why this should not be done and no
doubt will meet with the hearty co
operation of the Anchorage business
man and the mining operator.
Mr. Christensen has sent the mer
chants a list of products indigenous
to this climate and soil and desires
to get the average price of what they
are now paying for same together
with an idea of what the local mar
1 ket will demand, together with the
~ 1 amount that it might be possible to
ship to surrounding towns and min
ing camps. His queries to the
farmer, naturally, go more into de
tail and with the required informa
tion will materially help matters.
He has asked the farmer to set a
price on his products, bearing in
mind that they will have to meet
competitive prices, what crops he
expects to raise and what proportion
he will sell to the merchant and the
probable date of marketing.
With a more thorough knowledge
from the merchant of the probable
market and more definite informa
tion from the farmer as to the
amount of the various products
■ | that can be raised, it will give Mr.
- Christensen some definite basts to
-t work on and will unquestionably be
the successful culmination of his
splendid idea—co-operation between
the farmer of the great Matanuska
valley and surrounding country and
the Anchorage merchant.
