Sixty per cent of the timber can be

10000 YELLOWSTONE
ELK DEAD OR SPOOF|NG

WASHINGTON, Feb tg-(A. PJ
Some ten thousand head Of "Yei-
lowstone park" elk either are dead
or are "spoofinE' park officials by
hiding. On ranges where thousands
had been seen only few have APP
peared this year and officials are
worried.
The herd was estimated at $4,000
in 1914 but dropped to 1,700 in 1911
with less than half that number ac.
counted for. Unless the shrinkage
can, be checked or it is found elk fa-

Troubled with mosquitoes in the

look around the yard for breeding

GRADED FRUITS

Market

Market
All who buy oranges, lemons, can
taloupe, grape fruit and Southern
early tomatoes notice that they arc
graded and uniform sizes are put in
the same carrier. The buyer knows
the quality by the brand and can set
the price at a profit by the uniform
size and number in the carrier.
You have seen fruits shipped from
this region, badly sorted and graded.
A few growers have spoiled the sales
of carload lots and eventually killed
the markets. The produce dealers
have spent much t'no an4 expense re
sorting to oct a sale for that fit TO
eat in order to hold the shipper ana

A law is now enforced to require
grading. The Swedesboro News pub

NEW DYNAMITE
DUPONT Company Has Perfected Non
Freezing Product

reeZlng BfOQuct
The DUPONT Company has developed
and perfected a formula for the manu-
facture of straight dynamite which
results in that explosive being proof
against freezing even in zero tempera-
tare. As a consequence Of the devel-
opment, the Company has determined
to discontinue the manufacture of its
former straight dynamite and here
after all this kind of explosive will be
made by the new Io~W-freeZing method.
The perfection of the formula is the
result Of years Of experimentation in
The laboratory and in the field and
marks one of the greatest advances
in the art Of explosive manufacture.
Straight dynamite has for years been
the standard of the world in nearly
every kind of open work, but a dis
advantage has been in its liability to
freeze at temperatures below fifty de-
grees Fahrenheit. As any dynamite
loses some part, if not all, of its eff
cheney when chilled or frozen, many
attempts have been made to make it
low-freezing. The perfection of the
new powder by the dupont Com
pany makes it possible to use straight
dynamite the year round in industrial
operations. Thawing, with its loss OF
time and attendant dangers has prac-
tically been eliminated. The new eX'
plosive has been fully tested anC
proved and the formula for making il
has been made standard in all The
plants of the Company producing dy

CHICKEN THIEVES
 AT WORK AGAIN

Chicken Thieves have once more began to operate in Skagway. Tues day night, Dr. T. H. Runnals was awakened by a noise in the chicken coop and got up to see what was the trouble. He took down his gun in case it might be some predatory animal, but instead of being a wild beast it was nothing more than a man. While standing in his dining room he saw the man and could have shot him, but refrained from doing so, when he had gone out the darkness had swallowed up the thief.
 Many will aver that he should have shot for the wholesomeness of the lesson, that by so doing he might have inCulcated a lesson not easily instilled into the hearts of the mean est type of humans who live in a community. These men who prey on the industry and work or their fellows, and who are too lazy or shiftless, or both, to themselves take the trouble to house and feed and care for a few hens, are willing to take the risk of being shot by go- ing to others coops and stealing their fowls. Its far better that the shot was not fired, but thieves can't expect to always escape thus, some ones exasperation will get the bet ter of his prudence and Messers Thieves will get a dose of shot, for they cannot be ignorant of the fact that guns rest on racks in most homes in town, and when they ri- fle hen GOODS, they are counting that condign punishment. It would be we'll for our city nightwatchman to make it a practice to jot down the names of people who are seen on the streets after midnight.
 Last year chicken stealing contin- ued until more than $500 worth of fowls had been taken. If nightwalk- CTS are tabbed by the nightwatch- man it would throw some light and might call reasonably call for ex- plantations as to why the parties are out at unreasonable hours. The sooner these thieves are caught and punished the better it will be for the community.
 Don't wait until the fowls are stolen before you lock your coop,

THE HARRISONS RETURN

After a four and a half months vacation in and about Seattle and Tacoma, MT. and Mrs. L. A. Iarri- son, of Skagway, returned home or th9 last trip of the Alameda. They report a most enjoyable trip while in the states. While there they oC- cupied themselves with seeing the country in and about the two Puget Sound cities and with visits with old time friends and relatives, intcrspcr- sing pleasure with some business.
 Speaking of the bread lines of which there are said to be four in the city of Seattle, Mir. Harrison said that he had visited one or two and that MT. Wm. Hillery who is well known in Skagway told him that the others were mutn like the Gnes he had seen. In those that MT. HarrisC visited he said there were men who were obviously in reed, but that 8 considerable pro- portion of the men in liue, appear ed to be ashamed at being seen there, and the supposition is that their shame came from the fact that lt.ey had the means for the;r dinner in their pocket and were just join ing the procession. There arc no bread lines either in Portland or Tacoma.
 Upon their return the Harrisons began an inventory of their goods with a view to putting on sale in the near future. Full advertisement of this sale will be given the public and 1t is asserted that there will be big bargains for all.
