 ALASKA FUR SHIPPERS
Continued from Page One)

ACO0L10ueu IIOm IdSe Ouej the territory of Alaska. The first car will be given for the best pre- pared shipment of five or more belts marketed through Sears between November 19, 1884, and December 31. 1884; and one car for the best handled complete shipment received and marketed between January |, 1885 and February 5, 1885.
 The Plymouth awards were made last season for the first time. The first car was won by Joseph E. Fischer, of Merriweather, Michigan. The second car went to Ralph God dard, of Manville, Illinois.
 A number of Alaskans were among those who received daily awards of $500 cash for the best prepared pelt marketed through Sears at Seattle during the 1933- 34 season, and an Alaskan trapper, Rasmus Hanson, won fourth award of $50 in the Fourth National Fur Show. 1932-33. It was felt. how ever, that the different conditions in Alaska call for special awards in order to give shippers who are un- able to market their furs during the period of the daily awards. an opportunity to share in the 9th Ma tional Fur Show
 The raw fur marketing service was originated in 1924 as a divi- sion of Sears Agricultural Founda- ton. Its purpose is to obtain maxi mum income for trappers, and the service has grown in these ten years to the largest of its kind in the world As an added inducement to proper pelt handling, the National Fur Show was instituted in 1929.
 Sears Agricultural Foundation. through it's raw fur marketing ser vice, has been instrumental in not only bringing about higher stand ards of pelt preparation among Americas trappers, but also market ing more than 14.O00,O00 belts, ob- taining between $15,000,000 and S2O, O,000,00O in income for trappers who have shipped their furs to Sears.

Drowned while trying to row canoe across the Yukon River be- low the town of Panama was the fate of Mike Nicoli, a native. When he made his attempts to cross the Yukon from the Tanana side, a storm was in progress. The Yu- kon is about mile wide where he met his death. His upturned canoe was found several miles below the place of the attempted crossing. Nj coils body has not been recovered. He was 36 years old. He leaves widow and five children.
 Definite objection to the propos ed route of the mooted road through British Columbia to Alaska is voiced by T. A. Storey, postmaster at Carcross, who is a visitor in Vancouver, says the Vancouver Daily Sun. MT. Storey thinks that in the suggested routing of such a road it would pass through tremen dously difficult country between Telegraph Creek and the Yukon boundary, a section where cost of maintenance would exceed the value of the highway.

SANITARY HANDS
ARE NECESSARY
TO SAFE COOKING

"Wash your hands thoroughly be-
fore you prepare any food for eating"
DR.. R. H. Riley, Director of the State
Department of Health, reminds house
keepers, cooks and all others who
handle or serve foods. "After that
has been done," he says, "be sure that
the apples, the pears, grapes, and 9TH
er fruit you are putting on the table or
are packing in Johnny's lunch box,
and the vegetables you are getting
ready for dinner, are also thoroughly
washed before you serve them.
whether they are raised at home,
or come from long way off the
fruits and vegetables that are in gen.
eral use today, go through a great
deal of handling before they reach
you or me. A thorough washing be-
fore they are served will remove dirt
or soil acquired in handling, and will
get rid also of substances used to pro-
tect the growing crops from insect
pests.
1.-THE Bureau Of Food and Drugs Of
the State Department of Health is in
touch with farmers and orchardists
throughout the State. Every season
a great many samples Of Maryland
grown fruit are brought from the or
chards and from dealers to the chemi-
cal laboratories of the Department for
examination for any leftover spray.
If excess spray residue is found, the
growers or shippers are notified that
it must be removed before the fruit
can be put on the market. Other
States are giving similar service to
growers and purchasers in other parts
Of the country.
"In the majority of instances, the
spray that is used to destroy the in
sect pests is washed off by the sum-
mer rains, while the vegetables are
maturing and the fruit is forming. II.
dry season the spray is not so read
lily removed. On that account, it is
always safer to wash both fruits and
vegetables before using them"

THANKSGIVING

Not for our bread alone
We give our thanks,
But for the strength to work and
drive,
The power to labor and to strive,
The joy and zest to be alive
And earn with marching ranks.
We give our thanks
Not for our bread alone,
But for the courage and the will,
The perseverance faith instills,
Though all our hopes are not fulfilled
Our hearts THY peace has known.
Our thanks are not alone for bread
Or treasures we may own,
It is the grace to see and bring
A heart of song through everything,
To be subject Of the KING
And worship at HIS throne.

has the hardest time finding a coat
that will be appropriate with her vel
vet gowns, but this is the perfect
compromise. Cut on simple lines and
boasting almost sportsmanlike flap
ped pockets at the hips, it is never

He plans to have the monument placed on the top of little mount, above the place, which has thus far been called Hen and Chickens, , and which he hopes to have chang ed to "Ruppert's Mountain"
 Father Menager suggests that friends of his and the church in Juneau might be willing to con- tribute to this fund. He can be ad- dressed at Pilgrim Springs, via Nome.
