OUTSIDE FARM JOURNAL
WILL ADVERTISE ALASKA
j One of the best known farm
journals in the West is going to j
print a series of articles on farm
ing Alaska. E. J. White, of the
Alaska Bureau of Publicity, recent
i lv received a request from J. C. i
1 * I
Knollin, editor of Orchard and Farm
' a monthly published at Los Angeles, i
for from six to twelve articles, limit- j
I
ed ito about 2,000 words each, and J
Mr. White is already engaged in j
i the preparation of the desired arti-1
cles, which will give Alaska from!
f 12,000 to 24,000 words of very de
■ sirable publicity in a great west
ern farm publication which circu
lates generally throughout the West.
! In making the request for the
; articles, the editor of the journal
: says: “I am going to take a step |
i apparently never before considered |
i.by any Pacific coast farm journal. I
, do not know when anything has in
terested me as much as the agri
cural items in the Bi-Monthly Bulle
tin with which you have so kindly
! furnished me.
| “I state frankly that I was amaz
! ed to. learn of the agricultural re
sources of Alaska and one of my
ambitions is to visit Alaska at the
earliest possible opportunity.
* "Nevertheless I believe the time
J has come when Alaska should be
I considered a part of this great agri
! cultural empire known as the Pacific
W est.
“I now ask that you please fur
nish me with six or twelve articles
not more than 2,000 words each,
concerning agriculture in Alaska, its
past accomplishments, present con
ditions and possibilities. I am con
vinced that such articles, if they
did no more than enlarge upon the
stai ding facts set forth in your
bulletin, would arouse the greatest
interest and comment.”
Leonte Versun, who recently com-j
pleted a contract in the canyon, re-,
turned to N'enana yesterday from
Fairbanks, where he visited for
several weeks.
