there IS something in a name.
You 11 realize this once you’ve
tried Frye's "Delicious" Brand
Hams and Bacon. The delight
fully mild and delicate flavor
will prove a revelation. Ham as
sweet, tender and juicy as fresh
young ham roast. Bacon—crisp
slices of wholesome deliciousness
that almost melt in the mouth.
One trial will convince you that
Frye’s ’Delicious” Brand is
JmhMOBBHBHMBikA
Hot biscuits, cakes,
pies—recipes for good
things of all kinds are
in Frye’s "Meat
Guide.” You can use
one every day. Bacon
cooked in deep fat is
just a little more delic
ious than fried or
broiled the usual way.

United States Commissioner H.
O’Malley before leaving Seward re
cently declared he was seriously
considering the closing of the Cop
per River district to further fishing
in order that it might have a
chance to build up. “There is a
50 percent increase in the Alaska
pack this year,” he says. “The
pack in Bristol Bay is normal while
in Cook Inlet and Southeastern
Alaska it is considerable better
than last year.”
Reminds us of the barn door
that was locked after the horse was
stolen. The pack in the Coper
River area was practically put up
at the time.
