The longest loan permitted an agriculturist under the Federal Reserve

disastrous to agriculture. It has compelled the farmers who have availed
themselves of this federal loan to cause a great tidal wave of selling imme

Random Observations About Town
About 10 miles of highway was built
ln Southern Alaska this year, according
to J. M. Myers of the United States bu
reau of public roads, formerly of Port
land. Myers, who is an engineer, has
been in Alaska two seasons superintend
ing the work in the southwestern sec
tion, around Seward and Anchorage.
There was plenty of labor this year, he
says, and it was much more efrlcient
than last year. Highway development
ln Alaska at present consists principally
in building roads out from the different
centers of population in various direc
