A 25KV.A Generator Furnishes Electricity for Light ing, and for an Electric Hoist an Electric Crane,
 and an Electric Driven Ice Crusher
Plant not Only Complete in Every Detail but Is One Which From Standpoint of Efficiency Cannot Be
 Surpassed by Any Plant of Equal Capacity

An electric crane for lifting two cakes of ice at one time from the ice tank and an electric elevator to lift the ice from the ice storage room have been installed. An electric driven ice crusher and an electric fish hoist on the dock complete the machinery equipment.
 The storage rooms will store 150 tons of ice and 150 tons of fish anG the Sharp freezing rooms will care for eight tons of fish at one time. The ice tank will freeze from fifteen to eighteen tons of ice daily. 4 small storage room has also been installed for the benefit of the local merchants for the storing of meats, butter, cream or ice cream.
 The cork insulation which is of primary importance in a plant of this kind was furnished and erected by the D. E. Freyer Co. of Seattle.
 Col. William H. Leet of Conneaut, Ohio, the president of the comps has been in Wrangell for the past three weeks Col Leet informs rs that every effort has been made to erect a plant that is not only com plete in every detail, but one that economically.

Jack Cool formerly lived in Wran- gell. He came here during the boom days and was a resident of the town for five years. In 1899 he was mar .gell. The funeral occurred in Ketch- ikan this morning, having been post poned for several days in order to give the absent children time to ge. home.
 MT. Cool leaves many friends in Wrangell who deeply deplore his m timely death.

Mir Downer was formerly in the service of the Signal Corps of the U. S. Army. He was stationed :n Wrangell at the time the United States entered the World War. When the Wrangell Volunteers were or ganized he became their drill mas ter. He also drilled the Boy Scouts
 and took an active part in every thing of a patriotic nature. When the order came for his transfer num- erous cablegrams were sent by local citizens to Colonel Lenoir petition ing that Downer be not transferred
 but the cablegrams were of no avail
 Mr. Downer is a most versatile and widely travelled man. When he was here it was often remarked that he had had enough experinces for dozen lifetimes.. But there was one great experience that he had missed
 And doubtless he left here little dreaming that after having travelled around he world three times he would be oyertaken by a matrimoni- al experience on the Yukon which is supposed to be bachelors paradise.

RAILROAD TO SERVE
 REINDEER MEAT IN
 EVERY DEPARTMENT

In all probability from 60,O0O to 75,000 pounds of reindeer meat will be contracted for by the Alaska Rail- road this summer and will be served ion the river steamers, the Curry Ho- ltel and dining cars of the Alaska Railroad, according to information obtained by the Anchorage Daily Alaskan.
 For the purpose of locating suit able sites for corrals in the Broad Pass district, Louis Jensen, a former partner of Oscar Anderson, in the meat business in the early days, left Anchorage fully week ago.
 It is stated there are sufficient cold storage facilities along the rail road belt, to take care of the present needs of the new industry. Nenana has fairly good sized plant besides cold storage plant in Anchorage and there are two other private plants in the city.
 The Alaska Railroad will be among the first in the Territory to put the reindeer meat on sound commercial basis, furnishing a local market, which up to this time has been served by beef from the States
 The thousands of tourists who will visit Alaska this year, will be given the opportunity to partake of this palatable dish and many perhaps will be so favorably impressed that more ready market will be created for the meat in the States.
 The Broad Pass district is ideally situated for this industry, for thou sands of acres of the land abound in ithe reindeer moss. the proper forage for the animals
 The US. Bureau of Education, of which Anchorage is headquarters in Alaska, has stated several times it is the intention to drive a number of the herds, now in remote sections of the Territory, to the Broad Pass dis trict. Independent owners of herds who have been in Anchorage recent ly and those already in the city, have definitely stated they will move their herds to the district this summer.
 AS has been predicted many times the Alaska reindeer business prom ises some day to assume tremendous proportions and inasmuch as An chorage is the most advantageous port from which to ship the car casses to the States, in time, the Al. askan states, that city will derive much good from the industry, once it becomes firmly established.

The last year has seen. the farmer, aided not only by better returns for his own labors, but also by cheaper prices for the goods he has purchased. Although the farmer does not directly buy all of the industrial products shown in the above chart, he is indirectly affected by what they cost, since they reflect the general trend of prices other than those of farm products. ~e
 A comparison of July 1, 1924, prices with those prevailing fnonth previous shows less drastic changes, naturally, than. does a comparison with twelve months ago. Yet it is highly signifi- cant that farm prices advanced sharp ly during June in many instances. For example, on July 1 as compared to June 1, corn sold for 15 per cent more, oats and wheat had advanced Is per cent and g per cent respectively, while other products showed smaller increases. Cotton lost ground in June, although 1t is still much higher in price than 1t was a year back.
 It is important to recognize that corrections of fundamental faults in the economic structure, if they are to be enduring must logically be expected to occur slowly. Thus, while the farm CT is. entitled to sympathy for his inn patience at the lot fate has handed him, each month is bringing new evi- dence that. although complete read justment of farm difficulties is not coming overnight, it is coming surely.

Enlightened heads uoE aHBm ol suIBd now train both their drivers and con ductors in the art of salesmanship. We don't have to cast our minds back very far to recall the days when taxi drivers and bus drivers were not noted for their courtesy and their desire to be of the greatest possible service. r :. Here we have illustrations of com petition having developed the selling end of business.
 To jump from taxi drivers to banks what do we find. It has now become popular for banks to organize selling competitions among their own em- ployes. Prizes are offered for the em- pfoye bringing in the largest number of new accounts. Sometimes teams are formed by different groups of clerks and prizes are awarded the team mak- ing the best showing. And we all have observed how even the most dignified of financial institutions now come for ward and compete for business by means of vigorous. advertising. The more progressive public utility corpora tions have lately taken to drilling all their workers in salesmanship. The man who is sent to read your meter, the men who put in your wiring, the repairmen sent to fix your electric washing machine, the office employe to whom you go to pay your bill, one and all of them are painstakingly coached on how to conduct themselves toward customers. It is impressed upon every employe coming into contact in any way with the public that he must re- gard himself as a representative of the company, and especially as a sales man.
 Many utility executives have gone further. They now enlist the services of all classes of workers to sell the companies stocks and bonds to their friends, their neighbors and others, q plan which has frequently proved suc- cessful beyond all expectation.
 The Seaboard Air Line has just done something which shows the importance now attached to selling. Charles A. McKeand, general industrial agent of the Seaboard, with headquarters at Savannah, Ga, has addressed "a com munication to manufacturers all over the country in the course of which he makes this significant statement
