LITTLE BOYS EYE BADLY
CUT WITH BROKEN JAR

The little son of DR.. and Mrs. j. NJ.
Doughty had his eye nearly, il not
completely knocked out last Saturday
while playing with a broken Jar. He
threw n piece into the air and it came
down striking him in the right eye

given the best medical attention in
the city, but it was thought best to
take him to specialist in I'll Paso,
so DR.. and Mrs. Doughty took him
down Saturday night and the special

vision and performed an operation
Monday and 1t is hoped here that his

City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, JAN. 3, 1915.

No" that the holidays are over and We are well embarked on the new year it would seem that the time is propit-
 ious for inaugurating active efforts
 toward bettering the many unsatis- factory conditions under which we are compelled to labor in this section If Alaska Ut present.
 We refer primarily the mail service the problem securing an extension of government road building, so essen tial to the future development of the territory. and also to the matter of securing a harbor for coastwise ship ping. All of these various matters are of the most vital importance to the citizens of this section in that they each. in some degree. affect the present and future development of the territory upon which We are depend ing for our prosperity and well being now and in the days to come. The chamber of commerce has already talk en the initial steps toward bringing about relief in the several matters enumerated and is displaying a most eommendable spirit in their task. How over while they are both competent and willing to do all that it is possible for an organization of that character 10 do, at the same time they should not be compelled to labor alone when it possible for the general public to accomplish a great deal to aid their effort. To secure the benefits we are seeking, is a hard task and also one that cannot be accomplished in a day. The long and determined fight of Fairbanks to secure their present fairly adequate mail service is ample evidence of this for it was only by the hardest kind of effort that it was effected. The important fact is that though they were compelled to labor hard and also to wait a long while for the results of their labors to be- come apparent, they have what they asked for in the beginning. What they have done we can do also but 1t means work, hard and steady work, for us. just as it did for Fairbanks Also like Fairbanks We must not be con- tent with merely waiting for a com. mercial body to accomplish the task We must all get in and help individually by every means in our power, just as the Fairbanks people did and are do- doing in the present day in order to secure still greater benefits. Hardly a citizen of the Panama city but has contributed some effort by writing to the publishers of the papers and mag azines for which they subscribe stat ing the general inadequaey of the mail service and urging their cooperation in securing q betterment. Also they have written to persons of influence everywhere asking that they lend their aid. All this has had no little effect in helping the commercial body that is leading the fight, to achieve desira- ble results. And, it is needless to say, it will have the same effect if em- pIoyed by the citizens of this section. The same methods may also be prof itably employed in the matter of se- curing the other things that We need in this sectoin.
 For proof that this is so We can again look to Fairbanks for an example. The much needed bridge over the Cinema slough, in the vicinity of that city,

He came down the river having his tent pitched on a raft. and tied up to the bank near the roadhouse for the night. During the night a grinding noise was heard and when morning came it was found that an ice jam covered the place where Jeffrey's raft had been tied up.

STRANGE MAI.ADY FATAL TO
5 CATTLE ABOUND GILCREsT

A peculiar, fatal and undiagnosed
disease seems to have taken hold Of
the cattle in the Gilcrest section and
several head have died in the past two
weeks.
1t is similar in operation and effects
to the peculiar horse malady that af-
fected the horses and caused the death
of SO many in the dry farm district
last year, except the present cattle
disease does not seem to be as con
tag1ous as was the horse disease.
Among the more recent losers by this
malady are g. L. Montgomery, who
lost valuable heifer, and D. 7. Nc
Cune, who lost three calves. Veterin-
arians who were called could not CLASH
fly the disease and offered no remedy
for it. The stock is suddenly stricken,
bloats up and experiences terrible pain
for a few hours before death ensues.

SYSTEM NEEDS IRON; n,
2 HOW TO GET #

In order to be healthy we need an
of "good red blood" and
in order to have this we must see to it
that we supply our bodies with iron,
for iron as we know, is necessary
constituent of the red corpuscles of
the blood. The numerous experiments
which have been made, indicate rather
clearly that the bulk of this iron should
be supplied by the food, rather than by
medicines. The latter, it appears, IS
of use chiefly when taken in conjunc-
ton with diet rich in iron. For our
supply, of iron, then, we must look to
our food, and not to medicines. and
mineral waters.
OF the foods containing large amounts
Of iron we may name eggs, beans aud
peas; such cereals as are used without
the removal Of their outer covering, as
for example, oatmeal and whole wheat
flour; such fresh vegetables as spinach
lettuce and csbbage; and such fruits
as prunes and raisins. The iron con-
tent Of meat is rather high, it is true,
but this iron being largely in the form
of homoglobin, it is but little used by
the body.-Evelyn g. Halliday, Colo
