J Suesine Silk Per Yard 50c I
Come in and see Suesine Silk
IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO ATTRACTIVE THAT NO WOMAN WHO
SEES IT CAN ESCAPE ITS CHARM. THAT IS WHY WE WANT YOU
TO SEE IT.
The minute you glance at Suesine, you will say: "What lovely ma
terial for dresses and waists." And you are right. Rich, inexpensive it
Is just the fabric for indoors and out; for daytime and evening.
The colors are exquisite ? gorgeous and sparkling, dainty and delicate.
Full 27 inches wide.
Yes, Indeed, Suesine has all the beauty of China Silk ? but wears better
because it Isn't. And Suesine costs about half the price of China Silk,
which means that you can have two dresses of Suesine Silk for the price
you would pay for one of China.
Twelve yards for a dress ? only $6. Think of It!
We haye sold ever so many yards of Suesine ? and have never had a sing
le complaint. That's how good it is!
It is certainly the best and finest and most beautiful silk that we have
ever seen for 50c a yard.
Come in and see Suesine ? please, do.

With 75 acres under cultivation, n
crop of 210 tons of potatoes, 2~> tons
of roots, 17 tons of grain, 6 tons
of celery, and tomatoes enough to
keep a small cannery working nights.
Jack Price, proprietor of Hot Springs
ho'el. Is undoubtedly the champion
farmer of the Tanana valley and the
whole of Alaska.
.Mr. Price came up from down
river last evening, and reports the
most successful farming season since
the Hot Springs farm raised its first
spud.
He said that he has 31 acres in
potatoes, and that the crop was a
magnificent one, with a potato super
ior to any native grown spud yet pro
duced, and which Is superior to the
tubers sent In from the outside. He
started 13 tons of these excellent
Murphy 8 on their way to Fairbanks,
but they were caught at the end of
navigation and frozen, being lodged
somewhere near Minto.
Thore were 25 tons of turnips, ru
tabagas and carrots. The celery grew
In splendid shape, and they have
much more than there Is market for,
although it Is being shipped to the
creeks there every day. They are
serving fresh tomatoes, cucumbers an
celery on the table at the present
'Ime.
With three acres in cabbages, he
has more than he knows what to do
with, while squash and pumpkins
take up too much room.
The tomato crop was a wonder,
and although there is no way of es
timating just how much was produced,
ho is positive it was a record breaker.
All fall they lived high, with corn
on the cob, a crop that produced un
expected results.
Seventeen tons of grain hay made j
a good showing, but no attempt was
made to ripen the grain .although
this can be done next year. ? Tanana
