NOVELTIES ATTENTION!

We read the article very carefully, which was published in last eve ning's Nugget, pertaining to the seriousness of the coal and oil ques- tion which confronts this section of the country in the future. For some reason or another a copy Of the aforesaid article was not furn- ished to tho Industrial Worker office, or else we would have will ingly published same in this issue.
 Now since the fuel question seems to be the principal topic of the day, what is to prevent Nome members of the Alaska Territorial Council of National Defence, or the Nome Chamber of Commerce, or mass meeting of the Citizens to petition Congress for the govern mcnt to ship coal from our own (the governmcnt) Matanuska coal fields. When shipping it to Fort Davis, why not ship it to Nome alco?"

Last night the usual large crowd turned out to witness the Gladiators fight for the supremacy In the diff ferent athletic games, held at the
 Eagle Hall. The Fort boys walked off with the honors in the base ball game with q score of 1 8 to ' in i their favor. The Midgets vs Pyg- 1 mics was a very closely contested game. The game was a tie when the time was up, and being tie, was still in dispute, so professor Thompson called his Giants out, and after a few minutes play the MidgetS made basket, thereby win ming the game with a score of 10 to s.
 The All Nome vs Nome High School, the long-looked for game was some game" It was very fast from start to finish, both sides playing excellent ball and it was anybody's game even to the last minute. The All Nome team now
 have @ good hold on their COAT and in the future they are going to hang on to it at least that Is
 what they say. The final score was
 24 to 22 in favor of the All Nome team. The municipal GuctiCneer was there with his cohorts minus his fog-horn.
 The All Nome aggregation finally
 succeeded ill capturing SOME 1 THING" last night. The above
 picture was handed to us by one of
 their trainers. All we have to say about it. is that, if this is the FAM i GUS ANGORA" we have recently
 heard so much talk about, it surely
 has the appearance of having ex- perienccd many wheatless, meatlesC
 and heatleGs days combined. We
 sincerely hope should the students
 ever annex it again, that they will
 treat the poor animal more humane
 ly than in the past.

GARDENERS
attention!

In last weeks issue of this paper
was an error in cost of bean inocu-
lating fluid. The agricultural depart
ment of, the University of Wisconsin,
Madison, Wis, will furnish enough
to inoculate seed beans for one acre
for twenty-five (25) cents.
General reports from bean and po-
tato growing sections indicate de-
crease in bean and potato acreage in
the United States this summer. That
probably means that both beans and
potatoes will bring good price the
coming fall and winter if the war
continues. The government proposes
to put a billion dollars into improve
ment of railroads and their equipment.
IF that is done there should be no
shortage of cars in which to ship DO
tatoes. Car shortage in the west was
the cause of the disappointing prices
received for potatoes during the past
season.
Between now and the first of June,
cucumbers, melons, squash and pump
kins may be planted with good pros
pect Of crop. Hubbard squash is the
most satisfactory variety for winter
use. Monte Cristo water-melons and
Early Backensak and Usage musk
melons are satisfactory in quality and
good yielding varieties here.
Manure them in the hill with we'll
rotted stable manure, if you have it
a shovel to the hill Thoroughly work
the manure into the soil and tramp
it down before you plant the seed.
Plant about one inch deep.
Cut worms are plenty this year.
We usually have a slight frost about
June 1st. Because of that and cut
worms, it is better not to set your
tomatoes, egg plants and peppers until
June LIST, unless you can protect them.
Cut worms can be killed by poison
bait. This is made by thoroughly
mixing one table spoon full of paris
green with ten quarts of wheat bran
moistened with one-half pint of mo-
lasses and enough water to thoroughly
moisten the bran.
If you use this keep poultry and
stock from your garden as they readi-
ly eat the poisoned bait.
Don't forget to send Is cents to the
University for your bean inoculating
fluid at once.

HARD WINDSTORN

Early Sunday morning, May 10Th,
a heavy wind came up quite suddenly
and broke off three large telephone
poles on the west side of the River on
Grand Avenue, two located on the 500
depot property and one on the corner
of the new City Hall lot, disturbing
telephone service for most of the day.
1t also blew Ted Johnston's awning
into the front windows of the saloon.
breaking three or four panes of glass
and doing other minor damages. The
wind came up so suddenly that nearly
everybody was obliged to get up and
close their windows, fearing an ap-
preaching storm. A rainstorm did
come later in the morning.

Credit is due to Oscar Oleson for
the excellent condition of his patrol
section considering the short time he
has been on the job. Without doubt
he has the best kept-up piece of road
in the county and we have travelled
quite few of them. The secret lies
in getting onto the roads when the
most good can be accomplished.
The bridge spanning Hemlock
Creek on the trunk line suffered bad
~ in the recent freshet. In fact it
has been rendered practically impass-
able, altho people have been crossing
on it. The bridge in question was
getting rather ancient and in need of
repairs. In all probability it will ne
cessltate calling a special meeting in
the town Of Hansen to vote money
with which to build new and modern
bridge.
Friday morning Vesper residents
awoke to find their cellars well filed
with water from the deIuge during
the night. While it has not been usual
for water to back into cellars during
a heavy rain, the situation was made
worse this time by stoppage of the
main sewer. A section of the main
sewer fell in at the corner of the park
which caused the surplus waters to
ind retreat in the cellars above.
There was no school Friday owing to
water IN the basement of the school
mouse which prevented building fire.
BY Monday the sewer was temporarily
and the water went out of
the easements.
