until this is actually done the gold
seeker would do we'll not to intrust
himself to the uncertainties of those
routes.
Undoubtedly the most comfortable
and easy way to reach the Yukon mines
is by steamer from one of the Pacific
coast ports to the mouth of the Yukon,
at st. Michaels, and thence by light
river steamers up the stream, the dis
lance up the river being 1,422 miles to
Circle City, and 1,772 to Dawson CITY.
The trouble with this route is that the
river is navigable only three months in
the year, and then only by small river
steamers, because of frequent bars. The
ice breaks up about the Goth of June
and forms again about the same time
in September. There are now several
steamers on the river belonging to the
Alaska Commercial Company and the
North American Transportation and
Trading Company, both of which have
trading posts on the river, with head
quarters at st. Michaels. Both COM
panies are building several new vessels
tor next years traffic.
The outlook for this route next sum-
mer is that the number of steamers on
the river will be utterly inadequate to
accommodate the persons who will be
landed by thousands at st. Michaels by
steamers and sailing vessels, though
there are numerous projects on foot for
hnlI1Inu ctnnnarp np tha r;you - 4lo
spring or towing them thither. As
every vessel on the river will probably
run in connection with some regular
ocean line, and as the Probabilities are
that the ocean liners will carry more
passengers and freight than the river
steamers can handle, it would seem as
though the only persons who will stand
any show of getting through to Dawson
by this route will be those who pur-
chase through passage from the starting
point to their destination for them
selves and supplies. Those who pay
passage only to st. Michaels, or who
reach that point by independent steam
ers or vessels, will probably be unable
to proceed any further. Notwithstand-
ing this promises to be the condition
of affairs next summer, there will
doubtless thousands of men take pass
age in all kinds of craft for st. Mich
aels, without providing means for get.
ting beyond that point. Much disap-
pointment is in store for many on this
score. Yet it may moi be an unmixed
evil, as it may lead to an invasion of
the region OF the lower Yukon and the
country around Kotzbue sound, where
rich placers are said to exist, and the
opening up of entirely new gold fields.
To sum up all that has been said
briefly, is to say that from 30, 900 to
900, 900 persons will rush to the Yukon
next year; that the only two routes the
majority of them should attempt are
the one by Dyea and Skaguay and the
lakes, and the ocean and river route.
and that no n should attempt either
without first making careful provision
for the entire journey to his destina-
ton.

ADVICE TO FARMERS.
How to Market Their Crops to the Best
Advantage.

Farmers need some constant relief.
The Farmer Commission House offers
it in its plan of direct shipments.
Thousands of farmers know what the
plan is. 1t is simply to save the grain
buyers profits. 1t is to stop the big
leak between the farm and the Chicago
market which has kept many farmer
hard up. 1t is better than insurance
1t saves 1c to Acts. a bushel on every
thing the farmer has to sell by the car
load. 1t operates in the farmers favor
more when prices are low than when
they are high If he saves the country
shippers &c on soc rye or barley, it is
10 per cent. on the value of the crop.
If he saves the shippers profit of only
/ lie bushel on 15c oats it is still 10
per cent of its value. During season
of advancing prices he makes the big
profits the country would make while
the grain is on the way to Chicago.
Farmers are thinking of new ways Of
marketing the crops already raised by
the finest farming methods and ma
chinery on earth They are better pre-
pared to act on their own judgment
than ever before, because they are read
ing and thinking more than at any pre-
vious time. Direct shipments mean
dollars and cents. They also mean
common sense. The Board of Trade of
Chicago should not be associated or
COMPOUNDED with bucket shops and
kindred gambling concerns, where
their so called business transactions are
governed by no law regulating COM
merce in which real commodities are
taken into account their transactions
being entirely ficticIOus and governed
by chance. We submit these facts to
show farmers that there is practical
business side to the Board of Trade. 1t
is in no way connected with the chance
of gambling. The most eXacting rules
regulate every sale, every report of sale
every act of every man in the trade.
This exchange is for the farmer If he
will use it. Every producer who
HI. HI. Carr & Co.'S. plan of direct ship
ments puts his grain on this exchange
in the way we have shown. The ship
per profits are his, the better Chicago
prices are his, the state inspection is
for his grain as well as the grain buy
ers, if he will load his grain in cars and
have it put on this big competitive
market. Now American farmers are
aggressive, they are ready to do every
the best possible way. Ifthey once see
that they can use the Chicago market
as their farm market they will do it.
The Farmer Commission House plan of
direct farmers shipments is along this
line. Farmers, get in touch with the
demands of the world by putting your
grain on the Chicago market. Farm
ers need no one to stand between their
farms and the Chicago market. The
influences are all for the better. Are
the farmers ready to push? Then de-
clare for direct shipments. 1t is the
first and best step for reform in market
ing. You get out of the Chicago mark
ct just what the regular country ship
per gets. You will feel better for doing
your own shipping.
