IN VEGETABLES
AT MTARTHY
(From M’Carthy News)
The farmers of this section are
yearly becoming more successful in
raising crops and especially vege
tables which are superior to those
imported and have in addition good
keeping qualities.
In the case of potatoes, the grow
ers are using native seed, so im
proved that the old theory that
Alaskan grown potatoes were not
equal to those outside is exploded.
- The Kennecott Copper Corporation
qR

farmers and received this week one
ton of potatoes from W. Tibbs at
Chitina, one ton of carrots from Ed
D#llen at Long Lake, and two tons
of potatoes from Tom Brown at Tie
kell.

sociated Press).—The Indian branch

lected a fund of 200,000 rupees in

dan missionary work in the United

FRANCE TAKES
CANNING IDEAS
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 (by Asso
ciated Press).—The America® *art of
home canning and drying fruits and
vegetablse is being taught in France.
All classes of French life have b^en
reached by the four American ex
perts lent to the French government
by the agriculture department of ean
®ing demonstrations.
During June, July and August, the
Americans mv^d from place to place
in France, carrying their work into
practically every part of that country.
At the first demonstration held in a
chateau near Versailles, products
canned by the French last year were
exhibited. Several commercial can
®ers competed with the houswives,
but the housewives carried off the
first prizes.
i TEA TRADE IN JAPAN
i IS BADLY DEPRESSED
_
TOKO, Sept. 30 (by Associated
Press).—The Japanese tea trade is
unusually depressed owing particular
ly to the small purchases by Amer
ican tea merchants. Tea manufac
turers in Shizuoka and other dis
tricts have jointly taken measures to
curtail the manufacture to provide
against future losses through slack
sales and the result has been a 20 j
per cent decrease in the out put ofj
the first crop and a 50 per cent de
crease in the second crop.
On account of the slack demand'
the manufacturers nearly decided to j
abandon the harvesting of the third j
crop this year, although this proposal I
has not been carried out. It is gen- j
erally observed that unless tea mer
chants and exporters change their |
l
attitude, a considerable decrease is j
thought inevitable. This, it is feared, j
will eventually cause a shortage of I
supply and hurt the export trade
towad stocks of old goods brought
over from last season.
