.SCORN NOT THE

Douglas Island War Gardens Will Help Win the War-Vegetables
 All Doing Well

A ramble around Douglas Island will convince tho most skcptical that Alaska is. farming country this year. at least and that the lsl- and is doing its share in raising food for the nation.
 Very nearly every lot that is fenced in Douglas is under cultiya- ton and on account Of the beauti- ful summer weather this year the crops arc doing well
 The principal things that are be- ing grown are potatoes, or "spuds," as they were called before they raised so in price that they became a luxury instead of a necessity, as they used to be. and every patch of potatoes in town seems to be try ing Co do it's best to help out its native country. There will be hun drcds of sacks of first quality pota- toes grown right in town this year and with thc crops from nearby ranches there should not be many shipped in from tho States this win ter. Tho crop will be much better i'm quality than last season. when it was SO wet that the potatoes were soggy.
 All the small vegetables have done well this year. and Che cabbage, ru- tabagas. turnips and carrots arc looking fine. They will supply good many families with their win ter vegetables.
 In passing, we might say that the Alaska white urnip is the best Of its kind in the world and commands fancy prices wherever it is sold. To a person who has only eaten turnips grown in the States the taste of the Alaska turnip is revelation.
 There are SO many nice gardens in Douglas we can not mention them all. but it will repay any one to take a look at the William Liyic garden. Otto Widcmann's, James Fa- hcrty's, Wm. shufer's, Jim Sey's or Frank Bachs.
 Alaskans should be loyal Co their Territory and when Alaska potatoes and other vegetables are offered for sale this year, buy them, and at stores where they arc not offered for sale, ask why they don't sell them. They arc good vegetables and every cent that is spent in buying them stays ii the country and doesn't go to transportation companies for freight on shipments from the States.
 Dcspisc not the lowly Alaskan spud, for he and his other brothers of the vegetable Kingdom are doing their part in building up Alaska and helping Co win tho war.
