STATE DEPARTMENT IS
FURNISHED FOOD DETAILS
WASHINGTON. D. C., Oct. IS.—
Reports front private sources to the
State Department indicate that the
German harvests this year while
heavy will not relieve the food si
tuation in Germany to any extent.
There is a great scarcity of fats
and animal food
Food supplies received from Ru
mania and neighboring neutrals will
not make up for the loss of so much
proteins.

The following letter is selfexplaintory:
J. I. HARDMAN HAT CO., Seattle, Wash., August, 10th, 1917.
THE NONPAREIL, Nome, Alaska.
Gentlemen:—Owing to conditions in the Hat Market, we are
coinjtelled to advance the price oil all felt hats.
There is every indication of further advances in the cost of
hats, and we most sincerely urge that you change the retail
price of the Hardman Hats on hand to $4.00 immediately.
Yours Truly J, I, HARDMAN HAT CO.
OUR PRICE
$ 2,25
WE TELL BUR CUSTOMERS
THE TRUTH.
As far as we know the truth.
If candor and straight-forwardness is going to deprive us
of an individual sale we may safely conclude that the sale better
be sacrificed than that the charcter of our store bo placed in
jeopardy.
There is but one basis upon which the relations between
the merchant and customer may be safely placed and that is
upon the foundation of confidence.
One lie may not destroy that foundation but it develops a
fracture that require many more lies to conceal that the struc
ture is bound to disintegrate.
We must pay a certain market price for our goods and
we must sell same at a little more than what we pay for them
to be able to maintain our structure efficiently and to pre
serve same in order to aid in the present and future develop
ment of our community.

now raised by the government. One
biilion five hundred million has
been already subscribed. This is
greatly exceeding indications at the
beginning of the loan issue and
much better than the Treasury had
anticipated even at its most opti
mistic outlook on the financial situ
ation.
WASHINGTON, I). C., Oct. IS.—
The government may take over
the entire coal industry.
The strike in Illinois is so ser
ious in its dimensions and shows
every indication of spreading
throughout all the coal fields of the
nation that this may yet be the only
way in which to keep the coal out
put up to the normal requirements
of the present industrial activity.
The companies fiatly refuse to give
an increase and there is no sign or
hope of settlement.
AIRMEN DESTROY THE
TURKISH AIRSHIPS
LONDON, Oct. IS.—A dispatch
from the British forces in Mesopo
tamia, announces that the Turkish
aerodrome at Kifri in the vicinity
of the Persian frontier was de
stroyed by a raid from British air
men, dozens of the new machines
which the Turks had just received
being destroyed.
The aerodrome was completely
ruined by the bombing from 'lie
airmen and the raid one of the
most, effective ever conducted.
The British are gradually forcing
the '1 lrkish forces back north and
south of the mcst advanced point
beyond Bagdad and the general
front is now well consolidated.
