Hawaii Quits
The Canning
OF Pineapple

Honolulu, May 1.-THE Associa-
ton Of Hawaiian Pineapple Gamers
has decided unanimously against the
further packing or sale of pineapple
cores for human consumption be-
cause of the discovery that some
mainland bakeries and Gamers have
been using canned cores for pur-
poses other than those for which
they were intended.
Canned cores have been sold dur
ing the last two years for confec-
tionary purposes only. Candy man.
ufacturers prepared them after the
manner of glazed fruit, giving them
coating of chocolate. This was
found to be not Objectionable.
Recently, however, it was discov-
cred that several mainland bakeries
were using the cores in making pies
and other products as substitute
for crushed pineapple. 1t was dis
covered also that at least one MAIN
land Gamer was buying cores and
repacking them with crushed pine
apple, selling the resultant mixture
as straight crushed pineapple.

THE STATES OLDEST NEWSPAPER
Established 1879
BISMARCK HAS THE RIGHT

Citizens of Bismarck have only the right but the
duty of demanding that road plan be adopted the be-
and state government tax money expended which is de-
signed to nure Bismarck and deny privileges citizens
of large part of southern Morton and Sioux counties.
The matter has been thrashed length in private
it has become public and since has become public the whole
situation may we'll be discussed.
The government with the aid the state and two
ties, spent million and half dollars constructing bridge
across the Missouri river. Both Mandan and Bismarck
widely advertised that would much for North Dakota
by promoting interchange between people the west
will not do anything to prevent citizens this side the
river from crossing the bridge But the few Manan citizens
promoting the road scheme plan to make it nconvenen
for many people living south of Mandan to the bridge
road from the Bismarck Mandan road to the present
ST. Anthony highway would give residents of the southern
either into Bismarck Mandan. But few Mandan
citizens want to virtually abandon the present St. Anthony
road build federal project which would enter the side
of Mand and nghen the road for the sole purpose of
preventing large number of people from having the oppor
tunlty to use the new bridge and to to Bismarck
Not only that but the whole system is designed
people the Cannonba and F. Yates territories
to the west to make trip to Mandan and Bismarck The
result is that the road system would tie the southern part
of Morton county and parts of Sioux county with the Mil
waukee railroad and promote the doing of business South
Dakota by North Dakota people The very policy by which
the few Manan citizens hope to benefit their city forcing
rcdnts of the South Country to enter Mandan and
cth"r city, would njure Morton and Sioux counties

LETTER FROM ALICE, HAMILTON

Edgerly Sanity seemed more i'm
pressed than the usual man with my
sisters fascination, although from
their speech | gathered that he had
never seen her but once or twice.
1t seemed that that time he prom
ised her, or rather informed her,
that he was soon going to Albany,
but he has not been able to make it.
However, he insisted that business
would call him there soon.
He had known Ruth Ellington, a
friend of Leslie's, very we'll, and he
had promised himself to visit Mrs.
Ellington in the near future. "Prom-

filtration with my sister"
This Leslie abetted innocently by
saying:
Yes, do come over soon. Ruth
will be glad to see you, and we will
make 1t as pleasant for you as pos
sible."
l gave Karl Il significant glance,
which was thrown away, as Karl,
you know, never suspects anything;
but l intend to open his eyes later.
l asked Edgy when he had heard
from his sister-told him we had
seen her just before we sailed, and
that hoped to have her over here
some time during the summer. He
didn't seem enthusiastic over it; in
fact, found him much Americaniz-

Eskimos Are y
Worth Millions

Cantwell, Alaska, May 17.-Thirty
years ago the Eskimos of Alaska had
nothing, but now they control nearly
$5,O00,000 worth of stock and pro-
perty, according to William T. Lopp,
superintendent of the Alaska division
of the United States bureau of edu-
cation. He has been here inspect
ing reindeer herds grazing in the pla-
teau Of Broad Pass.
Because Of the encroachment of
privately owned herds of reindeer on
the Seward peninsula and Point Bar
row section of the territory, it is
planned eventually to remove the
Eskimo herds to Broad Pass, with
Cantwell as the directing base. The
first herd of 5000 animals will be
driven from the Seward peninsula to
Iditarod next fall, allowed to recu-
perate, and started again in time
to cross the big rivers before the
breakup in spring.
particular care must be exercis-
ed" said Mr.. Lopp, "in handling the
reindeer fawns. Once the human
hand touches fawn, it's mother dis
owns it. For that reason the Eskimo
herders wear gauntlet reindeer-skin
gloves and reindeer-skin parka, and
also spread reindeer skin in the sleds
on which the little creatures are plac-
ed until the herd rounds up for the
night and they can be delivered to
their mothers.
In bringing over the herds from
the Point Barrow region it will be
necessary to drive them to the Yu-
kon river, there to load them on
specially constructed barges on which
they will be towed up the river to
Nenana, where they will be shipped
by the Alaska railroad to Cantwell.
1t is estimated there is strip 100
miles square in this vicinity suitable
to reindeer grazing. With rail trans
portation at hand, those interested
in the industry predict that some
day before long reindeer meat will
be as common as mutton in the mar
kets Of the states.
