OUTLOOK GOOD
 ON TENDERF00T

That the outlook for a prosperous season on TenderfOot creek. the old upper Tanana river stream, which has produced It's quota Of gold every summer since the Fair banks camps was struck. is good, i- the statement of NJ Emard the Tenderfoot merchant, who spent a few days in town last week ou a buying trip. MT Emard does not pretend to state just how much the old creek will produce, as he is not familiar with the extent Of work being done by some of the operators, but he is confident that while nobody will be, ome eXcep- tionally rich as the result of Ten derfoot operations, the stream will produce practically as much as it has for the past several years
 In fact, according to MT. Emard's statement. there are more plants on Tenderfoot this year than ever before. Some of the operators will work large crews durlng the coming summer, while others will be mere ly partnership affairs. Quite a mum Der of men, however, will be work ing there.
 There have been no new deyel- opments in mining way on the Tenderfoot during the past winter. nor in that vicinity. MT. Emavd therefore thinks that the end of the coming summer will see the virgin ground on the old creek all worked out, although it is also his opinion that "sniping," as it is called will be going on there for years to come

FEED SHORTAGE CAUSES DELAY
 IN ALL WORK
PROBLEM OF OBTAINING HORSE FEED IN FAIRBANKS IS
 BECOMING SERIOUS.

| The horses in the Fairbanks dis 1 triCt are facing famine This l does not mean that they are starv- 1 ing, for there is plenty of proyender on which they may be tided over. but which is not much of strength sustainer wher it comes to work
 And there IS work for every horse in the Fairbanks district at the ! present time For this reason, more than for any other. the problem of how to feed the stock in the dis l trict and keep winter transporta tion facilities open on the trails is i becoming more serious all the time ! And the end is not yet, for the opening ot navigation and the con sequent shipping Of grain and hay is still mon than two months away. l Practically all of the native hay raised in the vicinity of Fairbanks has already been consumed. and adyices from the lower river camps 1 indicate that the supply of both "cheechaco" and native feed is prac- tically exhausted.
 Reports from all of the creeks are to the effect that the feed shortage means big delay in spring work of all kinds For horses cannot haul wood to the min ing claims unless they are fed on wholesome feed. Neither can they haul supplies or do other work around the claims or creek towns. Numbers of teamsters are already feeding their horses on carrots and other such vegetables a. are to be had
 All of the feed houses here are sold out of hay and grain A little is kept on hand for the purpose of supplying regular customers or those who had feed contracted for in ad vance. Owing to the fact that the owners of q number of teams could not keep them here, with feed un ODtdlndDIt, q large nQnlDtr or horses hay" been taken to Hot Springs and Panama, where it is said, native hay is to be lad
 The feed shortage has had the effect of also shortening supplies in outlying camps For with no horses to haul their goods, the merchants of the places affected are unable to make their usual spring shipments of goods out of Fairbanks
 One of the merchants so affect ed is NJ. Emard, the Tenderfoot merchant who is in town for a few days. On Thursday he stated that he had been unable to find a team ster who would undertake to do his spring freighting for him and as conseQue nee he feared that he would be unable to ship supplies to his store on Tendortoot creek, in the upper Tanana river country until after the opeuine of navigation
