“We find jungles as dense as the
tropics, mighty forests of virgin
timber little touched by the lum
berman's ax; treeless wastes as mo

with eternal snow within which lie
hidden gold and silver and copper

RESOURCES ARE VALUABLE
“From Alaska’s coastal waters is
taken annually the world’s largest
catch of salmon, while her rivers
and streams teem with trout and
grayling.
“It is a land of gigantic beauty
to lure and fascinate with its
mighty glaciers that tumble into
the sea: mountains that seem to
pierce the sky; the deep blue wat
ers of the famous ‘Inside Passage’:
its sunsets; its ‘northern lights’:
and it gorgeously brilliant wild
flowers abounding everywhere in
astonishing profusion.
“And yet we find grain fields and
vegetable gardens; dairies and live
stock: schools and churches: paved
streets and automobiles: happy
homes and healthy, rosy cheeked
kiddies. Here we find the world’s
farthest north Agricultural College
& School of Mines, located at Fair
banks, within 100 miles of the Arc
tic Circle. That is the Alaska of
today.
“Its development from an indus
trial standpoint is now well under
way in its fisheries, mining lumber
ing and fur. A start is being made
in agriculture, controlled fur farm
ing and in growing reindeer. It is

“If you will open your geograph- j
ies you will see that three-fourths \
, of Alaska lies within the north j
temperate zone and in the same J
latitude as Scotland, Nomay and1
Sweden. Only one-fourth of it ex- j
tends beyond the Arctic Circle.
“It should not be surprising there

able to these northern latitudes
growing in the Territory.
LONG DAYS ASSIST
“The exceptionally long days of
continuous light during the sum
j mcr months has a deep significance
for agriculture in our northern j
lands. The result is to produce an j
astonishing rapid growth and ten- j
derness and freshness in quality j

spring wheat will head within 50 j

Be moderate—be moderate in all things, even in
smoking. Avoid that future shadow* by avoiding
over-indulgence, if you would maintain that modern,
ever-youthful figure. “Reach for a Lucky instead.”

ultimately satisfactory,” says Dr. Beverley Robinson in the New York Medical Journal. We do not represent that
smoking Lucky Strike Cigarettes will bring modern figures or cause the reduction of flesh. We do declare that
when tempted to do yourself too well, if you will ’’Reach for a Lucky instead,” you will thus avoid over-indul
