try and is a valuable source of meat
for local consumption as well as for
expert to the United States. There
are approximately 800.000 animals
on the open ranges at present and
there is sufficient land and forage
to support live to six million head.
It is estimated that in time 1.000,
000 head can be slaughtered and
exported annually. But these facts
need cause no fear that the rein
deer industry of Alaska will effect
adversely the growing of livestock
in our western states. Reindeer is
a specialty meat and even at maxi
mum production its consumption
would only approximate one and
one-half pounds per capita per
year for our entire population.
CHEAP TIMBER SUPPLY
“The vast timber resources, es
pecially those found in the two
great National Forests along the
coast, afford a cheap, plentiful
supply of raw material for lumber
and for the manufacture of news
print paper.
“These forests are owned bv me
Federal Government and are under
scientific forestry management of
the United States Forest Service.
The timber is for sale to anyone.
The land only being retained in
Federal ownership in order to in
sure a continuous growth of trees.
There is sufficient timber and un
developed water power within the j
Tongass National Forest in South- i
east Alaska to supply, when fully
developed, the raw material for the
manufacture of one-fourth of the j
newsprint paper consumed annual
ly within the United States—and
to continue at this rate in perpet
uity.
“As our industries are developed
thru the increased use of the nat
ural resources, population will nat
urally increase, a larger local mar
ket for farm products assured and
consequently a greater inducement
for growing them. The Alaska of
the future holds much of promise
and this Northland of ours will
someday take its place as the 49th
star in the flag of our Union”.

(Dedicated to the Craft, with
suitable acknowledgments to
R. Kipling.)
When the last long line is assem
bled
And the mats have dropped from
the bar,
When the cams make their last
revolution
And stop with a clank and a jar;
When the stick is dumped on the
galleys;
When the final slug is cast;
When the 'jidce” is turned off
the metal
And the motor stopped at last;
When the unt turn proof is cor
rected
And stamped with a final “O. K”.
And the ituff lias gone to the
make - ups
At the end of a hectic day—
We shall rest, and by jove, we’ll
enjoy it,
Lie back in our chairs and sleep,
Let the dust collect in the en
trance
And over the matrices creep.
We shah waken to go on the long
shift
Cf a 4 sit” that is seaay for aye
We’ll punch the eternal time
cljck
On the morn of an endless day.
We shall rub our giant spaeebans
On a league-wide graphite plat
eau,
Feed the pot with a mineful of
metal.
Test the keys with an E-T-A-O.
We shall finger the cosmic key
board,
Give the solar mold-disk a swing,
And cast the first thousand-pica
line
Of a never-cbmpleted string.
|p^UHAfH give* you quick mkJ
effective relief from mosquitoes,
gnats end flies. Just turn a little
Buhach in tfie room, the camp, or
the porch and these annoying paste
quickly disappear.
Sprhklc lightly where roaches, anil,
or other insect pests appear...Ael
ends them.
