GOOD WORD FOR THE ESoUIMAU.
An Industrious Chap Who Deserves a
Helping Hand.

The natives of Alaska are Il fast
dwindling race. Their sun is setting.
Probably their midday sun never rose
higher than the midwinter sun rises III
this latitude.
Most of the ESQuimauX III Alaska are
gathered at the missions, but the traveller
will find few in villages of two or three
or half dozen igioos in places con-
venient for fishing, as fish is the staple
let of these people. Starvation and dis
ease have left but a remnant of once
poDulouS tribes.
Contact with the white race has had
4 great deal 10 do with their deteriora-
ton. They like whisky, and like all 9th
er native races are not naturally indus
trious. Before the coming of the white
man stern necessity made them provide
for the immediate future. The sea sup.
piled them with most of their food, and
there We're wild berries and various kinds
of game on the land to vary their fish
diet BY instinct inherited from Il long
line of ancestors they are fishermen and
hunters, but by contact with the eau
casian they are makers of curios and
traders. In their new avocations they
have become dependent to a great extent
upon the white people.
But the higher race is not responsible
for all their ills. The unsanitary state
in which they live is not conducive to
longevity. The impure If IN the native
winter huts, the lack of personal cleanl-
ness and much of the food the native
eats would shorten the days of the
hardest people.
The Esuuimau has some qualities Of
character to be admired. He has often
shared his last bit of food with starving
prospectors or wrecked sailors. He is
bright and ingenious, simple minded as
a child. with a happy disposition that
takes no thought of the morrow. He is
bad only when under the influence or
li0uOr.
The government should make some
provision for the Esquimau. He can be
made self-supporting, possibly con-
tributor to the wealth of the world by
placing him in a line of work for which
nature has fitted him. Provide him with
modern appliances and means for fishing
and whaling, and with proper manage
ment he will become producer of
wealth.-NOme News.

An Editors Tip to Shabby Husbands,

A wife who loves her husband will no,
object to cutting his hair every week or
two instead Of every two or three months
Any man can learn to shave himself. A
box Of blacking costs 10 cents, will last
months. A chunk Of soap, some hot W.. :
ter and a rag will take the grease and
dirt out of an old suit Of clothes. Most
any man can go to bed al hour sooner
once in ten days and have his wife or
daughter crease his pants" A brush and
a little elbow grease will take the dust
out of ones clothes. Flowers are thick
along the streets and it is mighty slow
poke who can't swipe a buttonhole when
coming down town. OF course it costs
10 or 15 cents 9 week extra to have a
nice clean collar and cuffs every morning.
And there you are. After all, then, the
difference between coming down town of
mornings looking as if you had slept in a
hay NOW, or appearing as though you had
just been shot out of q bandbox, is Is
cents week, a little soap, water and ell
bow grease Of course, if your wife
doesn't love you she will kick on cutting
your hair and "creasing your pants" but
then if she doesn't love you, it is your
fault. She will tidy you up every morn
ing If you are any account and treat her

SALE OF FERTILIZERS
DOUBTED IN ALABAMA WITH
 IN FIVE YEAR..
Report of Commissioner Poole Shows That Receipts From Tags in 1908 Was the Greatest
 Recorded.

The use of commercial fertilizers in Alabama has doubled in five years. This is shown by comparative statement is- sued yesterday by Hon. R. R. Poole, Commissioner of Agriculture and Indus tries.
 The bare figures !n Commissioner Poole's statement carry convincing proof of the widespread increased use of ferti- lizers on the farms and plantations of the State.
 The fertilizer season closes April 1. Each fertilizer year begins April l and ends March 31. For the year ending March 31, 1899. 911.730 fertilizer tags were sold. Ten tags are used for every ton of fertilizer and from the figures it Is shown that 91,173 tons of fertilizer were sold that year in Alabama.
 In the next five years the sale of ferti- liSer was more than doubled in this State. During the year just closed 1925, ,11O fer ulizer tags were sold. For the interven- ing years the sale of tags was as fol lows: 1900, 1,464,747; 1901, 1,1S4, $50; 1902, r. 745,6l5.
 The tags bring in a large revenue to the State. Each sells for cents. The tags for 1908 brought in s96,l55.50.
 The receipts were the largest ever re- ceived from the sale of the tags since the Agricultural Department was established.
