ONE WEEK LEFT
 TO PAY TAXES
 AT PAR VALUE
Penalty Is Added After Octo- Der l0--More than $64,-
 900 Is Outstanding.

With one week left in which tax payments may be made at par, ap- proximately $64015 remain outstand- ing on this years tax rolls, accord ing to a statement made today by City Clerk A. E. Gurr. All taxes, he said, are due now and if not paid on or before October 10, will be subject to added penalties.
 Up to the close of business yester- day payments of taxes made at the City Clerks office amounted to $11 ,95026, MT Gurr said. On the same date last year, payments az gregated s12,70237, or $75211 more than this year. Exclusive of gas boats there remains outstanding to be collected $64.O1565 Gasboat as essments will add about $1,200 to this amount.
 Virtually all of this will be paid into the City Treasury before next Tuesday night, MT. Gurr said. Every year the bulk of the tax payments are made during the final week be- fore the penalty period It is be- Heved that there will be but a very small amount of unpaid taxes at that time.

POINT RANCHERS SEEK REINDEER
 FOR EXPERIMENT
Strawberry Point Homestead CTS Believe Could Build
 Up Big Deer Herds.

That an experiment in reindeer taken at Strawberry Point in the near future, was indicated by A. l.. Parker and w. c. White, ranchers in that district. who were exhibitors at the Southeastern Alaska Country Fair last week. These ranchers hope to put on 24 head of reindeer before another year.
 We believe that We can get deer from the Bureau of Education to start our herd" said Mir. White. "Mr Hawkcsworth has assured us he will assist in getting the animals and is confident there will be no difficulty in this respect. Supt w. T. Loop will be in Juneau shortly and MT Hawkesworth has said he will take up the matter with him"
 Both MT. White and MT Parker were enthusiastic over the Strawber- ry Point country. They regard it as being one of the finest agricul- tural and grazing sections of Alaska. In the district, they said, are 25,O00 acres of fine homesteading land, level almost as noor, not so heavily timbered as to make it expensive to clear, and with rich soil. In their exhibit was native grass which grows prolifically and which has been found to be excellent forage for stock and swine. It is estimated by them that there are thousands of acres of this, as well as other native wild grasses in the district.
 They regard the district as favor able to grain growing and exhibited specimens of wheat, oats, barley, tim othy at the Fair A specimen of Finnish black oats which, it was said, run about 75 bushels to the acre, was given first prize.
 Farmers fin the district have al ready begun in substantial way to grow livestock Next season they expect to supply meat to several canneries. If the reindeer grazing experiment turns out favorably it is expected to add much to the attrac- tion the district already possesses.
