Produce. ^
The land and industrial department
of the A. E. C. will shortly commence
sending out form circular letters to all
homesteaders and farmers* and all job
bers and merchants along the line
served by the railroad from Seward to
Fairbanks. The letters will request the
producers to state how much and what
products they can grow this summer
and the merchants* will be asked to
state what quantities of such goods
they will be able to dispose of. Data ,
will then be compiled and the farmers
and merchants put in touch with each
other. In this way the department
hopes to encourage the use of home
products and start a “Made in Alaska ’
movement.
