THE GATEWAY BREAKS THE
 BAD NEWS TO MALTBY
He First Sees in This Paper the Fact That He Has Been Beaten
 For Legislature.

A. E. Maltby, formerly commits sioner in the Iditarod, is now at Knik with Mrs. Maltby on the way out from the interior camp to Juneau. On leaving Iditarod he thought he had been elected to the legislature and came out to be on hand to attend the session of the legislature in March. At Susitna Station, however, he came across copy of the Seward Gateway telling that Snow of Ruby had forged ahead in the voting and that he had fallen from first to second place. J. E. Riley the mining operator met the Maltbys on the trail. He also believed that the Idita- rod mans election was assured. It is
 aid now that Snow has lead of only eighteen votes but judging from all the returns that have come in it seems as if Shows election is certain.

RILEY TALKS
 OF THE TRAIL
IDITAROD OPERATOR SAYS SOMETHING SHOULD BE
 DONE AT ONCE.

J. F. Riley, a member of the firm of Riley and Marston the big mining operators of the Iditarod, says that Seward should certainly do something to have an improvement effected in the trail between that camp and this. He arrived from the interior on the way to the outside to secure some material for his dredge. He found the trail laid out in an almost unbelievab- ly poor manner. The trail itself is we'll built, he says, although some work should be done at Happy creek. But of the route which the trail fol- lows he has nothing to say but what is uncomplimentary. He suggests that the people of Seward get together to send a petition and to take any other steps which might be necessary to have some money allotted and some work done on the trail. He himself made the trip in thirteen days but he says it is wonderful how the mail is brought over that trail at all. Wind falls are found everyplace and in some cases the trail is made to run around tree stumps as if it were a necktie running around a collar. MT. Riley speaks very enthusiastically of the Iditarod and everything connected with it, but he thinks that Seward ought to get busy about that trail un- less they are asleep. "The mail car riers that can get the mail in such time over a trail like that must be- moose" Said he.

START FOR STRAWBERRY BED
Medium Loan That Is Deep and Re-
tentive of Moisture, Vet Well
Drained, Gives Best Results.
(By r. III. HALL.)

In selecting land for strawberry
growing, avoid very sandy as well as
very heavy and poorly drained soil.
A medium loan that is deep and re-
tentive of moisture, yet well drained,
will give best results. Sand soil with
a southern exposure will produce an
early crop, but is usually lacking in
moisture when most needed, therefore
requiring special attention in the way
of irrigation and mulching.
Cool, heavy soil with a northern ex-
posture should be selected if a late
crop is desired. Low land, if well
drained, may be used. Sod land is not
desirable for two reasons. First, be-
cause of it's poor physical condition,
and second, danger of damage by the
white grub, which is usually abundant
on sod land and very destructive in a
newly set strawberry field.
Land that has been planted to hoed
crops, to which liberal annual applica-
lions of stable manure have been ap-
piled for one or more years and kept
free from weed seeds by frequent cul-
tivations, may be considered as well
