 The average price for 40 items was $21.67. For the three month period ending June I, 1858, the figure was $2l.74. The statistics are obtained in Alaska cities and towns by volunteer enumera- tors and are compiled, analysed and distributed by economists of the University of Alaska Cooper ative Extension Service. The quarterly reports are available from local extension offices.
 N The average of $2174 compar- es with $l7.40 for a similar "Bas- ket" Of food purchased in Seat tie. Figures for the various AL askan communities for Septem- Der, followed by the June figur- est Ketchikan $1993, $1968; Sitka $2140, $2L21; Juneau, $20.45, $21.06; Kodiak, $21.95, $22.34; Seward, $21.89, $21.99; Anchor age. $23.46, $23.66; Palmer S23.07.

The price ranged from no change at Fairbanks to $1.16 in Sitka.
 The quarterly report on Alas Hka's food prices includes the Iprediction that agricultural growth cannot continue with the disorganized type of market now existing for potatoes and offers as an example that Seattle whole sale price for U. s. No. l potatoes in September ranged from SITS to $2.75 CWT. Shipping costs to Anchorage are $298 per sack or $2-40 CWT in carload lots. Fair banks charges are about 50 cents a CWT higher. Fall bids on po- tato contracts for the military have gone as low as $2.42 CWT in Anchorage and $2.82 to $500 in Fairbanks.

Week. End Is BIustery

Garrett county was hit by a
blustery snow storm last Saturday
that had the appearance of some of
last winters offerings, but it was
of rather short duration.
Two to three inches of snow fell
and the winds whipped this into
drifts that covered highways and
made it necessary to bring out the
plows. No roads we're blocked but
motorists without snow tread tires
were cautioned to use chains. The
weather partially cleared by Sun
day but remained cold and the
thermometer registered two de
grces below zero.
Monday was clear and cold with
Tuesday remaining clear and
moderating somewhat. There was
a light snow fall on Wednesday,
but this turned into rain before
evening. Rain continued Thursday
morning. There was rain and slect
last Friday which resulted in
several wrecks throughout the
county.
