LITTLE INTEREST
 FELT IN APRIL
 TOWN ELECTION
REGISTRATION BOOKS CLOSE NIGHT OF APRIL 8; FEW
 REGISTERING

But a few more than fifty sigma lures have so far been affixed to the registration rolls for the coming election April 6, city clerk J. P. Hannon advises. No voter will be permitted to cast ballot unless he or she registers prior to the clos ing of the registration books. The law provides that each qualified vo- ter must register before every muni- cipal election. The, fact that one might have registered last year means, nothing The registration books will be closed at 10 o'clock on the night of April 8.
 Little has. been felt in the coming election since the books were opened some weeks ago. IA mayor, three members of the common council for a two year term, one council mem- Der for one year term and one member for the school board are to be elected. m
 Little intimation has been given as to who will be candidates for the several vacancies which will exist this year, but a caucus will have to be held very soon for there are but ten days left until election day.

Parks of Alaska is planning for an Alaska exhibit at the Sesqui- centennial Exposition at Philadelphia, June 1 to December 1, and said that space would be allotted from the vari- ous government departments of Alas ka and that the general appropriation for the government exhibits will f. nance the installation.
 Parks said: we are going to fare reasonably we'll at the hands of con- gress. I believe the Alaska Railroad will get the appropriation of S1,700,- 900 safely We will also get $1,000,- % for the Alaska Road Commission" :"
 In regard to the floating hospital, Governor Parks announced the hos pital which will carry a physician and two nurses will be put in service this year on the Yukon river, and it's tri- butaries, and will serve 5000 natives and whites. He said, throughout the entire district they have only two doctors and three nurses and when an epidemic occurs, it takes days and sometimes weeks to get medical as sistance. Most of the natives live along the river so hospital of this kind will be able to reach practically all the camps. The medical staff will make sanitary survey and instruct natives how to care for themselves"

FORMER ALASKAN
 PLANS FUR FARM
 ATOSLO, NORWAY
JULIUS CHRISTIANSON MEETS WITH DIFFICULTY IMPORT
 ING FOXES

The oldest living sea otter and seal hunter in Alaska, Julius Christianson, who left Seldovia last fall for Norway, where he planned to round out his ad- venturous career, writes The Gateway from Oslo, that he arrived. safe and sound to the land of his birth, in De- cember and that it seems but short time ago when he first arrived in Se- ward when there was but one log cab in on the present townsite.
 However, in taking back to Norway with him, couple of pairs of silver foxes, he ran into an international problem which he had not reckoned with. It seems that upen arriving at his port of debarkation in Norway, the law prohibited the importing of ami mals from the U. s. A. It was four teen days before he was able to land the foxes from the vessel, and then he had to take them, by water, to Co., tenborg, Sweden and from there, by rail to another point where he will have to keep them for a year before the authorities will admit them into Norway.
 MT. Christianson states he might possibly return to Alaska this year for the purpose of procuring more fox, He asks to be remembered to his many friends in this district and in particular to Capt. O. A. Johansen, of the steamer Starr.
 Prior to departing for Norway, Mr. Christianson had conducted a fox ranch for fourteen years near Seldo- via. He disposed of his entire hold. ings to his partner who is now carry. ing on alone.

FOX AUTHORITY E. W. WILLIAMSON
 RELATES FACTS
STATES FUR FARMERS VIEW
 WITH ALARM ADVENT OF ALASKA FOXES

Alaska foxes are healthier and bet ter than the average raised in the States, according to F. w. William son, owner and general manager of the famous Williamson Silver Black Fox Ranch near Kusilof, Cook Inlet, in a recent letter received by The Gate way.
 Naturally, Mr. Williamson says, the breeder of Prince Edward Island stock in the States views with alarm the ad- vent of the Alaska raised fox on his market and one will find in the States very consistent propaganda against the Alaska raised "Alaskans." Of course the "Alaskans" raised by the big ranches in the States are suppos- ed to be all right.
 The fox business. in Alaska needs all the publicity that it can get and especially. among Alaskans, Mir. Will lamson continues. Alaska is better suited as fur raising country than any place he has knowledge of. Tn addition the average Alaskan is much better equipped to be a successful rancher than the average man in the States. The percentage of failures in this Territory is negligible as com pared with those Outside The aver age dirt former can, combine fox-rais- ing with other ranching and dispose of his farm produce and livestock to good advantage to his fox ranch. It might solve question, it is stated, for many of them if they could only see it.
 MT. Williamson says that Alaska fox ranchers seems to hold the i'm pression that. it is unseemly to, adver- tise or. push their industry into. the foreground and until quite recently he has been having lone fight of it. However, he sees many encouraging signs and has hopes for the future. MT. Williamson contemplates3 mak. ing business trip to Seward in the very near future.

DOUGLAS DISPATCH SATURDAY MORNING. DECEMBER
GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Dec 17.-l49-Influenced
good deal by unfavorable crop advices
from parts of Argentina, the wheat
marke there recovered today from an
early setback. Closing quotations on
wheat were unsettled at the same as
yesterdays finish to a off, with corn
unchanged to Y cent UP, oats at Il a
"A cent decline to an equal advance,
and provisions varying from five cents
drop to rise of 20 cents.
| Although displaying considerable
strength in the late trade, the wheat
market was running into more liberal
offerings just at the close. Commits
sion house buying on resting orders,
however, absorbed the surplus offer
! ings.
| Unsatisfactory crop conditions in
! Pampas province in Argentina were re-
| ported, and also in the extreme west
of the province of Buenos Aires. An
unlocked for upturn in the Buenos
J Aires market tended further to bring
about late rallies here, despite gossip
! current that the Buenos Aires advance
was at least partly due to 3,500,000
| bushels of Argentine wheat having
been bought for shipment to England.
| Liverpool quotations, lower than ex-
pected, togetheD with Argentine re-
ports of favorable harvest weather,
had much to do with selling rush
which at first weakened the wheat
market here Besides, it was current
/ gossip that threshing returns in Buenos
Aires province, Argentina, the princi
pal provinces as to whea tacreage were
| showing larger yields than looked for.
Notice was also taken of assertions
that Chicago May delivery is the high
est price wheat in the world, and that
export outlets are still needed to avoid
burdensome domestic carry-over at
| the end of the crop year.
Corn and oats followed the trend of
wheat developing firmness after an
early decline. Country offerings of
corn were mainly held above buyers
views
Provisions were firmer, helped by an
upturn in the value of hogs

TTVHE Christmas feast is bound up
with hosts of food traditions,
gathered up through the centur-
les, all with association and stor-
les which make them dear to us.
None is more universal than that of
the Christmas plum pudding, and the
Christmas pie, which, though there
be fowl or roast, baked foods, boiled
or stewed, must always have place
on the Christmas menu.
Other pies and tarts, cranberry,
pumpkin, and fruit puddings of many
kinds are famous in song and story.
They may have their place still, and
without the cost in time and effort
which were needed in other times when
every step in the making of the pud-
ding. mince meat and pie had to be
done in the kitchen. The modern
housewife buys her plum pudding apd
fig pudding in cans, entirely prepared,
needing only re-heating and a holly
garnish to make it festive for the
table. Her pie and tart filings, fruit
for puddings of all kinds, she buys
canned, rnince meat and mince with
out meat, pumpkin, cranberry, and all
the other good fruits, cherries,
peaches, pineapple, ready for her use
in any dish she chooses. Even pie
crust comes ready prepared. SO even
if you're busy or tired you can have
your Christmas pie.
A can of mince meat and pack
age of prepared pie crust will make
a rnince pie with both lower and top
