Fairbanks also produces potatoes by

Fairbanks also produces potatoes by the tons and the potato industry has already reached the degree of develop .ncnt that the home market is being supplied this winter by strictly home grown potatoes. The district around Haines Is at the present time supply ng all southeastern Alaska with cab page and Skagway celery Is fast sup planting the outside product in the markets of that section Haines has also an enviable record for strawberry production and produced crop valued at two thousand dollars during the present season a large part ot which was shipped to Seattle where the berries were received with the same favor given to all other of the Alaska vegetable products handled in that market. Skagway is also com
 mencing to produce fruit crops of other types through the planting of srult trees and the same Is also being ione at Fairbanks with every prospect that Alaska apples and pears will also be added to the list of products drawn from the northland. It Is true that he product is small at present but this Is due solely to the fact that but
 few are giving more than desultory attention to the possibilities of this
 line of wealth production. Enough has been done. however, to show that there are unlimited possibilities for vegetable and fruit production and 1t requires no great stretch of the i'm aginatlon to see a day when the pro- ducts of the north will find their way to the east in easy competition with those of more favored localities Against the argument that such would rct be possible because of the trans portation costs, the statement of the trade journal may be cited. Local jobbers assert that when northern jobbers get to such a point that they will have a surplus for the eastern markets, they will easily be able. on the quality basis alone. to get more than enough additional to cover the freight charges over any sort of com petition that may develop"

NOME, ALASKA, FEB. 1, 1916.

It must be an astonishing revelation to the benighted Outsiders" to read such articles as that contained in a Seattle trade journal which states that the Alaska yellow turnlps are of a quality that can scarcely be equaled by any similar product reaching Seat
 tie from any shipping point and also asserts that when the Alaska growers
 reach a point of production where they will have a surplus product fol export to eastern markets they vii
 b. able to meet any sort of competition on the quality basis alone When you think of 1t, that is saying a whole lot for land that is supposed tt raise nothing but polar bears, Eski- mos and ieebergs with sprinkling of gold and furs thrown In by way O. making up for other delinquencles in the line of productions. The article also goes on to state that the future for agriculture in Alaska is regarded by the outside jobbers as very brigh' Judging by the quality of the Alaska grown vegetables so far received ir Seattle coupled with the known pos
 abilities of the northern territory fo, vc etatlc production. It would be truly |. good joke If some of those hide bound old senators from the rural
 districts who have so consistently opposed doing anything for Alaska or the ground that the country was un. productive; save for its mineral wealth should one day find the products of their own fertile acres supplanted in the markets of the United States by the vegetables and cereal growths of this despised land of snow and ice And yet such contretemps is not without the bounds of possibility. All who are the least bit acquainted with the northland are aware that vege- tables forms mature no where so rap idly as they do In this country and also that they are of a quality un- matched by those of other climes. The long days of brilliant sunshine cou- pei with the gentle rains character istic of the producing sections combine to make the Alaska climate ideal for the raising of all the quick growing varieties of vegetable life.
 From Juneau to the far away reaches of the Arctic slopes and we'll within the Arctic circle. vegetables can be grown where ever the proper soils can be found. And further they are every where of that same matchIess quality which has made them so much In de mand in the Seattle market whenever available. Turnlps of every variety are grown all over the territory to- gether with other varieties of surface vegetables. Fairbanks raises strawber- ries of a quality which are, in the opinion of epicures unsurpassed in flavor by any domestic berry known

Are you taking chances with

teeth have such a direct bearing

You must admit that your

In fact, success without good
health is practically an impossi-

And good digestion Is the

your physician about this point.
And nothing has a more direct
bearing on the digestion than the
teeth-not only in the way they
masticate the food, but decayed
teeth are actual producers of

He sells his furs to Tacoma and
Seattle dealers.
Blakeslee's father was a trap

mountains, and the boy inherited
his knowledge of the ways of wild
things and how to outwit them.
He is built like an Indian, tall

He sometimes walks % or 80
miles in a day, without food from
morning until night, and perhaps

And in spite of all his skill
each year there are fewer pelts

finding enough to buy flour and
bacon to take back to the wife
