SIX KEEPERS, Il PLAYERS
 DRAGNETTED AT DAWSON

Dawson has gone back to it's old Ell dorado days and real frontier gambling has been carried on in the once famous Yukon town of late.
 An item under Dawson date line, printed in the Skagway Alaskan, says:
 nSix men charged with keeping com mon gaming houses and eleven charg- ed with playing or looking on at gam bling games in the houses run by the first six were before Judge McCauley this morning. Some of the proprietots were up several days ago. The entire number of proprietors and onlookers pleaded guilty, some at the hearing last week and some today.
 Judge McCauley fined the proprie- tors each $100 and costs and also sen tenced each to three months imprison- ment at hard labor. However, the sentence of imprisonment was suspend cd during good behavior.
 "Of the eleven spectators, four were fined $2O and costs, and the others $10O and costs, or given the option of two months in jail. They are paying the fines.
 The judge made it plain that here after no fines will be extended any of the offenders. He declared that gamb- ling must stop in Dawson for all time, and that he would do all in his power to see that those who attempt it are punished.

NEVADA CREEK MINE
 CLOSED OVER CHRISTMAS

Superintendent T. A. Harper of the Alaska Treasure Mines at Nevada creek last Saturday ordered temporary shutdown of the development work until the first week in January, when the mine will reopen and active work in tunneling continue.
 The rumor that the Nevada creek nest-egg was to be abandoned was given wide circulation this morning, but the story is merely a repetition of previous yarns breezed about for no apparent cause whatever.
 The Alaska Treasure Mining Co.,, in it's possession of the Nevada creek pro perty, owns one of the best propositions in the north in mining way, and to quote the words of an official, is "here to stay"
 Howard Ainsworth, an employee of the company, is to leave soon to spend the holidays visiting in Seattle.

CHICKENS PAY IN RUBY CITY

The best paying chicken ranch pro bably on the American continent, is sit uated at Ruby. This ranch stands with in four board walls on the cross street near the former commissioner s office and occupies a space of 16 to 20 feet skuare. Inside are 21 chickens, which lay an average of Is eggs a day, and have been so doing for several months.
 During that time the owner of the chickens, Alex Smith, has received $4 per dozen for the eggs, and so clears more than $5 per day out of this in vestment alone, feed for the chickens costing daily about Is cents.

CLOWNS ARE A FEATURE.
Ringling Brothers testers of World
 Wide Reputation.

Fifty of the worlds best and mer-
 riest clowns are largely responsible for the attractiveness of the program
 which Ringing Brothers Worlds Greatest Shows are offering this year | There Is not moment during the three hours the doors are open that the audience is not laughing at some
 droll stunt or funny antic of the great army O. comedians.
 Most of these gay sky-larkers are from Europe. They are from the comic opera companies of Paris and Berlin. the Pantomimes of famous Drury
 Lane. from the courts of eastern pO-
 tentates and from our own vaudeville and musical comedy stages. This is the circus that for quarter of century has originated the best there is in clowning It is funnier than ever this year. The man who attends one of it's performances and does not come away with more hopeful focus on life lad better see an undertaken.
 At all times the arena is the scene of merry action. There are satires on public and political happenings, farces the richest of vaudeville sketches. dia- lect acts and clever tom -foolery. The cOarseness that characterize3 the clowns of other shows is missing The compound essence of wholesome and innocent fun is ever on tap. The au- dience drinks large draughts of it with beneficial results to health and mind.
 Foremost among the comedians is Al MiacO. He was the original Hump ty-Dumpty Though nearly 50 years old is still the leader of all the worlds pantomists and harlequins. His name is that of an illustrious family or com edians. There is also Jules Turnour, the best of all French mimics. Jules is the subject of an intensely interesting biographical story written by Isaac F. Marcosson, the magazine editor and author. He has clOwned in every civ iliZed country on earth. Kings and queens. diplomats and professors have laughed at him. He is the delight of the children. George Hartzell is an other of the clowns. The magazines all over the country have devoted pag- es to his clever work. still another is James Spriggs. the clown policeman. He is what is known as free lance"

SORGHUM AN ENEMY
 0F JOHNSON GRASS
BUT IT IS NOT REGARDED AS A SPECIFIC CURE FOR THE
 PEST.
Opinion Of the Scientists of the Uni
 versity cf Arizona.

pest could be overcome by planting sorghum with it in some way not quite clear to Mir. Welch However he l thought if there were any virtue in the idea the farmers of this valley should be given the benefit of the facts so he addressed a letter of in quiry to Director Forbes of the agri- cultural experiment. station in Tue son. The following answer was re- ceived yesterday and should be read by every farmer in this valley:
 University of Arizona. Agricultural Experiment Station.
 Tucson. Arizona, Sept IS, 1911. Mir. Harry Welch,
 Sec'v. Board oe Trade.
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 In the absence of Director Forbes on a vacation your letter has been re- ferred tO me. I would say that in my opinion the crossing of Johnson grass with sorghum would be extremely un- likely although of course such a thing might occur since they both belong to the same botanical genus. think it more likely however. that the gen d very large growing Johnson grass plant for a hybrid between the two species. I have personally seen John son grass plants in cultivated fields which were eight feet tall and one half inch in diameter at the base. This would be more likely tO occur where the plants were thinned out and only occasional Johnson grass stems all lowed to grow. It may he possible that sorghum car bc used tO swat the Johnson grass as you suggest but if so it will not do it by polloniZing with it but by shading and destroying it. The sorghum should be planted in rows and cultivated being sure to give the crop a good start of the Johnson grass rank growth of sorghum will prob ably do more than any plant that I know of to choke out and weaken this pest in a badly infested field After the Johnson grass is weakened with one ar two heavy crops of sorghum it can be more easily controlled by clean cultivation of corn, beets, or other titled crops One of the best means however of getting rid of Johnson grass is 10 turn the infested field into a pasture. graZe it very closely for one or two years, then dry out 2 whole summer and follow with a shallow blowing and frequent narrowing and discing in the succeeding winter. This is based on the principle that the pas turing and close grazing will bring the Johnson grass roots near to the surface of the ground after which shallow blowing and exposure of the roots to dry cold weather of the win ter will completely exterminate them.
 With best wishes. I am.
 Ner- truly yours.
