Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Alaska Agricultural Experiment Stations, 1915 In the coast region the rainfall was also less than usual during the first half of the summer. This was favorable to all kinds of fruits and vegetables. At the Sitka Station the strawberries began to mature by the middle of June, the earliest date on record. The KO diak Station was affected unfavorably by this weather. The grass did not grow with its normal vigor, and grain crops seeded for hay were stunted for lack of rain. Nevertheless, there was sufficient pas ture to keep the cattle in fine condition. When it did begin to rain it rained so continuously that it interfered seriously with hay making, and barely enough hay and silage was saved to carry the herd through the winter. The farmers and gardeners throughout the whole Territory report a favorable season. Vegetables and berries were never better or produced in greater abundance. To point out the striking difference between the seasons of 1914 and 1915, there is given below a condensed temperature record taken from 18 stations, which represent the whole Territory.
