IN TANANA WINTRY HEART OF ALASKA

And then the long, dark days rack
your nerves almost to breaking. You
get tired OF yourself and your friends
and want something new in the way of
amusement You sleep as long as you
can and pay but little attention to hours.
All parties are held late, and they often
last far into the night. And then the
trouble of entertaining. Everyone has
the same supplies, and the same canned
stuffs to select from. You go to your
pantry and look at the shelves in despair.
1t is hard to know what to serve.'
Another Alaskan talked to me about
funerals. Said he:
1T is difficult to bury your dead in 4
land where the prehistoric ice lies only
two feet under the moss, and where you
have to build fires to thaw the Ice
frozen gravel beneath. In winter you
sometimes have to chop the graves out
of the ice. There Is no need of brick
walls or cement. The coffin is laid in its
ice tomb, the earth shoveed back, and
soon all is frozen solid again. The dead
buried in the winter remain frozen for
an indefinite period. and when taken
up years later look just as in life. The
ice has turned them, as 1t were, to
statues of marble.

that anything goes in order to achieve a
victory.
Quite naturally this sort of news is
not calculated to quiet set of al
ready disturbed nerves and by the time
we have finished our grapefruit and
coffee we start forth in the direction
of the nearest subway station with a
sensation much akin to what soldier
feels when he is ordered to lead a
charge.
At the entrance to the station we
find two or three blue coated officers
of the law. OF course, these brave
boys are stationed there for our pro-
lection. But that isn't the effect we
get. By no means-the minute we see
them standing there we realize that
trouble is in the air. Nay, it is worse
than that-we know that trouble is
in the subway, where there is hard
ly any air of any kind, and we feel
as we descend into it's dangerous
depths that we may emerge again and
we may not but whatever may hap

pected to break loose at any moment.
This, of course, is all very quieting to
us, and as the train pulls into the sta

tragedy in every creak of each car,

In the past few years there has been
craze in Ala ska in favor of the "help-
full hem" Most of the residents have
been keeping chickens and raising their
own eggs. At first many kept the
chickens throughout the summer and
sold them as cold weather came on to
save the expense of warming and light
ing the coops during the long winter
nights. They would then import a sec
ond flock for the following summer To-
day it is the custom to care for your
chickens in summer and put them out
to board in the winter. In Dawson and
Fairbanks there are a number of chicken
boarding houses, where fowls are cared
for at a regular rate. The usual price
for boarding a hen is 81 per season, and
this includes feeding and keeping in a
well warmed and well lighted coop. The
eggs laid during the winter go to the
landlord. AS soon as the warm weather
comes, on the owner takes back his chick
ems and is thus able to raise brolers
and pullets and at the same time have
plenty of eggs.
Another interesting feature is chicken
killing time This corresponds somewhat
with hog killing time in the states When
the weather gets cold it stays cold all
winter. Inc thermometer goes down TO
below zero and the whole country is a
cold storage plant until spring. This
makes it so that meat can be kept in a
frozen state throughout the winter. Each
householder having decided how many
chickens she will put out to board, kills
the balance She cleans and dresses
them and hangs them out of doors or in
an unheated building. They freeze solid
the first night and can then be laid away
in cold place and be brought in to be
eaten as needed. 1 know of one woman
who has now 100 chickens. She will keep
them till fall. when 30 will be killed and
the remainder be put out to board. That
woman is sure of good chicken all win
ter, and the meat will be far better than
that from our cold storage plants.
In Dawson butcher told me how they
managed to have fresh meat all winter
long. Said he:
1--WE bring our beef and mutton in on
hoof before navigation closes and keep
them until about the middle of October,
after which time we are sure of a steady
cold until spring. We then kill and dress
them and hang them up out of doors just
as you hang up beeves in a cold storage
plant We then lay them away and thaw
them out as the market demands. We
freeze caribou and moose the same way.
Last year one of the butchers froze
caribou with the skin and horns on, and
just as it looked when alive. He stood
the carcass out in front of his shop, and
used it for a sign.

Tanana, Alaska
If AM in the very heart of Alaska. Ia
mana claims to be the hub of the
territory. 1t is little town lying
on the right bank of the Yukon river
just about half way between the Pacific
and Arctic oceans, and half way down
the Yukon on it's course from the inter
national boundary at Eagle to it's mouth,
where it flows out into Boring sea not far
from st. Michael, l have come 800 miles
down the river from Canada on my way
to this point, and I have $50 miles more
to go before l can get the little steamer
that will take me over Bering sea to
Nome. Just opposite where my steamboat
is anchored is the mouth of the Tananl
river. 1t is a wide, sluggish stream, hav-
ing course of something like 900 miles
from the Wrangell mountains to whera
it flows into the Yukon 1t will take me
two days of steaming to go up it 70
Fairbanks, where the terminus of Uncle
SANS new railroad is to be.
The people here think that the railroad
should be extended to Tanana. They
claim that the Tanana river is not deep
enough for large steamers, and that its
sand bars and islands affect navigation
They say that if the road were so con-
structed as to cross the Yukon at the
rapids about So miles above here the cost
of bridging would be extremely low, and
the road could then be run down the
north bank of the river to Tanana, OPEN
ing up vast region lying to the west
and north of the Yukon. This region has
some of the richest placer deposits of
Alaska, including those of the Koyukuk
river, where on several OCCASIONS as much
as $4,000 worth of quartz gold has been
found at the foot of a shaft eight or
10 feet in depth. They assert that such
a road would also open up the great
farming possibilities of interior Alaska
and would give direct access to the Yu-
kon and it's enormous tributary system.
There is no doubt that Tanana can
offer room for all the population she NAV
have i'll the future. The corporate limits
at present are large enough to give an
acre to every man, woman and child
and leave some to spare. The town has
400 population and it is scattered along
the water front for more than mile.
At thes lower end OF it begins the army
post of Fort Gibbon, which extends three
miles farther, and wEich has a govern
ment reservation of 60 square miles.
The town consists of the post and the
civil community. The latter has two
churches, three hotels, six saloons and
several large mercantile establishments.
1t has also public school and movie
