 On a farm, it is possible to imagine how a man might live on the latter of these two sums, even in Argentina. How he succeeds in doing it in Buenos Aires, and how, in particular, he sue ceeds in doing it part of the time on $l32O per month is a puzzle.
 It seems to be the consensus of opinion that he can get enough of a poor quality of food but that his shelter is such as would revolt self respecting hog in the United States. He wears whatever clothes he can pick up.

The fact that Seward firm is able to supply thirty five thousand dollars worth ofmerchandSe in few weeks speaks volumes for the business position which this town has attained By having firm like Brown Hawkins in
 town means more for that town than we can realize at quick glance. Being able to the demands of the En- gneerng Commission both for quantity and price as well as quality means also that the people money by an economic fact of importance to Alaska that the people need no longer depend the little Ay-bynight who has to pay wholesale for his goods than the consumer should be required pay retail And in speaking of this fact at all it may be pointed out that the Seward Com mercal company showed the same fine quality in connec tiOn with the recent contract for goods It really marks for the mercantile business in the territory
