"If ivnr Skagway becomes weary
cf her role a# "Gateway", there
remains (or lwr a grand future as
vegetable supply poiut If she will
>nt take advantage of the oppor
tunities with which she has been
supplied by Nature" tl>ua speaks
SKagwny's Friond, Stroller White la
h is last edition of cheerfulness.
Coutluulug, Kditor White says:
"Irstead of having but a few acres
uuder cultivation as at prevent, the
entire Skagway valley should be
iOu verted iuto one masrlvc garden
from which the entire inortlor coun
try as far norm as l'ort Yukon
<ou!d be supplied with as fine pro
ducts as grow out of doors.
"Those who attended the late hor
ticultural fair at Skagway know
what can be pioduced there in the
way of vegetables. Whllo only a
very few are engaged In gardening
all who are so engaged aro making
a success of U. Walter Wills, H.
i> Clark, Herman Olson, C. O. Walk
?r, H. P. See man and Robert Brown
lug, the latter of the White Pass
girdens, and others whose names w
.to not recall, are all making vog
et.ible growing a success in a man
>?< r which should be enlarged upot
ii' til brought to an exportlug bas
is. Vegetables such as those for
which the th inks of the editor of
this paper are due Mr. Browning,
the White Pass gardener, are never
shipped to this place from the out
side for the reason that they can
not be purchased on the outside. If
such vegetables are raised In the
States or British Columbia, they are
kept there.
Yet Whltehorse merchants are un
able to procure the Skagway prod
ucts for their local trade which
could be built up to the exclusion of
the outside product if the Skagway
growers would awaken to the oppor
tunity and patronage which await
their efforts.

Count Stenboch Fermor of the- is
Sand of Or eat Lyakersky, New Si
beria. has presented to (I>? natural
history museum ii; 1'iris vhltt
oo:i?ldernl to Ve the fin^si spwtnieii
o* a mammoth yet fou;ul
The gift is especially intreesttin:
because the animal had not flulsli
o-J riisgesting his last meal at the
moment of his death, countless cen
turies ago. Thus th?j savants are.
for the first time, able to study
accurately the nature of the flor:>
of the far distant epoch, they have'
cimply to examine the contents of
the mammoth's stomach. He was,
found lu an absolutely complete
condition in a strata of ice. The
skin, which Is without a scratch, in
covered with reddish hair, thick and
tort to the touch as that of a lap
dog. The work of digging out the j
nonster from hid primeval cold
storage and bringing hlui the I'arls
was ouo of extreme difficulty. The
body was cut carefully into pieces,
each oue labeled, und then carrlod
l.SOo miles to a railway line ou dog
sledges.
The museum has come Into possutt
filon of the skeleton of an enormous
diuosaurus found near Majunga, on
toe west coast of Madagascar, by tb
< xplorer Perrler do la Uutle. Some
Idci of the dimensions of this mon
ster may be gained from the fact
that a strong man can barely lift
one section of the vertebrae. A! j
though only partially disinterred |
the natural history experts of th
museum estimate from measurement
of the parts they already have that
this dlnosuurlnn considerably ex
cecds In size the dlplodocus, a plast
r cast of which Mr. Carnegie gave
to the museum. Another ncqulsl
lion Is the skeleton of one of the
abulous birds known to palaeoutol
oglsts as uptornis, which stood IS
feet tall. ? Tacoma Dally News.
