At the meeting of the Commercial club last night by a unanimous vote the report of the printing and adver- Using committee was adopted which gives The Daily Alaskan the contract for printing 10000 copies of the book let which will advertise Skagway as tourist resort. A report of the
 trustees of the club also recommeud,d the adoption of the advertising com mittee's report
 Not only was The Daily Alaskan bid cheaper than any made by Seattle firms. but 1t will eliminate freight charges. the work will be done within thirty days after the cuts arrive, and will be subjected to a constant per soua supervision, by the officers of the club. The Alaskan guarantees a job equal to any tba, can be turned ou. in Seattle for the same money, and the forms win be kept standing so that additional copies can be print. ed at the minimum expense
 Another reason that influenced the printing and advertising committee in selecting the Daily Alaskan is theun- settled condition of the Typographical Union in Seattle. There have been several recent strikes there among printers. and the printing of the book lots might be indefinitely delayed through this cause.
 The bid rendered by the Daily AL askan was S675 for 10000 copies and s95O for l5.ooo copies Lowman and Hanford rendered a bid of S7oO for 10000 booklets and SlO0O for r5.0oo booklets. Meusing Muchmore and Emmc of Seattle made a bid of S69o for 10000 copies and $o75 for l5.0oo copies.

Timely Warning To Settlers.

a circular letter has been issued by
the Great Northern railway, in which
settlers are warned against attempt
ing to cultivate Montana lands by
wrong methods. The circular, which
was prepared by Prof. Thomas Shaw,
says in part:
Farming in Montana must be con.
Quoted along certain liaes and it is
absolutely useless to try to conduct it
any other way. The moisture that
falls must be conserved by the meth
DDS of tillage that are followed. If this
is not done, the crops will fail.
1t is to be feared that come persons
whose sole interest lies in the revenue
that comes from locating settlers are
making extravagant claims regarding
the crops that may be grown on new
breaking or on stubble land regardless
OF the season. These claims will not
prove true In dry years. Nor should
undue attention be given to extrava.
CANT representations made by those
parties regarding the yields that may
be expected.
The object of this circular, there.
fore, is to warn settlers against the
blowing of large areas of land during
the present spring q and sowing
them with small grains. 1t is alright
for the homeseeker to break up some
land, and after preparing it with great
care, to SOW q limited amount of the
different small grains. Should the
season prove to be a dry one. the
safest grain crop to sow is fax and
the more perfectly the ground has
been prepared for THE crop, the more
likely it is to succeed. It should be
reasonably safe to plant corr of suit.

BETTER THAN CANADA.

Farmers attr acted from the United
States to Canada by the effective ad.

seekers not q few farmers who went to
Canada within the last few years only
to cross the line into this state where
conditions are better. The Western
Monthly is authority for the statement
that government statistics show that
the averagelgrain yield of the north.
west is greater than that Of Canada.
A few onicialtfgures will be interest
ing on this point. For the 6~ve-year
year period, l904.ls0S, the official
average wheat yield per acre for Ore
gon was 20.2 bushels; Washington
23.9 bushels; Idaho, 25.9C bushels;
Montana, Is bushels; the entire north.
west, 22.4 bushels.
Official Canadian statistics show
that for the same five.year period the
average wheatiyield per acre of Sas.
katchewan was 1876 bushels; Alberta,
ola bushels; both provinces, 49,
bushels.
During the same period, the entire
northwest produced an average oil
80 6 bushels of oats per acre; Sas.
katchewan. 3l.3 bushels; and Alberta,
35.7 bushels. Also the northwes,
yielded an average of 1854 bushels O,
barley per acre; Saskatchewan, 49,:
bushels; and Alberta, 25.S bushels.
The people of Montana will be in
clined to question a report that give!
the average wheat yield in this stat,
at no more than Is bushels. The av
erage yield in the Gsllatin valley an,
some other especially favored section
is very much higher than that, but /
may be that the entire average of tn
state is only Is bushels. At that it
