BEET TESTS ARE
BEING WATCHED
Alaska is arranging to test the
sugar beet. It is believed that it
will thrive in the Matanuska valley
and elsewhere. If it will do well
there, it should prove a success in
the Yukon valley. This territory
will watch the experiments In the
Matanuska with great interest. Any
vegetable which will grow rapidly
will ripen under the midnight sun
in the Yukon and is certain to be
free from pith and stringy conditions
which characterize vegetables which
grow in cold regions where sunshine
is absent for hours each night.
Yukon should prove suited to the
growth of quite a number of the pro
ducts of the soil. Alaska has several
large experimental farms which are
carrying on invaluable tests. The
! long looked for experimental sta
tions for this territory will be real
ized some day, and there seems little
doubt but that with their aid Yukon
will hit on products adapted to the
quick growth under the midnight
sun, products not now known to be
suitable to this region, but which
will prove a great commercial asset.
Already it is proved that this region
car. raise the most tender and tooth
some vegetables under the force of
unbroken sunshine of months, and
some daj when aerial or other rapid
transit connects this region by close
communication with the metropol
itan centers cf the continent the rare
quality and drintiness of the vege
tables of this northern belt will
prove them the most delicious and
most in demand of any that connois
seurs of the wealthy centers will be
able to secure. The northland's
great moss covered hills also then
will become the permanent grazing
landg for herds of reindeer, domesti
cated caribou and other hardy north
ern animals, and this country, from
Hudson bay to the Pacific, will prove
the great storehouse and supply bas
ket of the continent for untold
millions living in congested centers
of the south.—Dawson News.
