FAIRBANKS STARTS WAfl ON
ARMY OF RATO ,
—
Fairbanks is invaded, and the army I ■
is recruiting rapidly, according to '
John Kelly, of the Northern Commer
i cial Company. Tire army consists of
rats, and in the first battle, on Thurs- i
| day, no less than forty were killed.
For many years. In fact ever since
the founding of the town, Fairbanks
has been practically free from rats.
St. Mlchaeal, a seaport town, has
been overrun with them. They final- i
ly worked their way up to Ruby and .
1 Tanana, and last year the Northern
Commercial Company plant at Chena
was troubled with them. Fairbanks
succeeded In keeping clear or them
until uow, but this winter they aro
playing havoc.
In Fairbanks there are many large I
warehouses where stocks of goods
are kept, and If they become over- !
run with rats the loss will be great
and will probably continue to increase '
for years unless some action is taken
to safeguard the property.
The Northern Commercial Company 1
has started the campaign against the
rats, and would like to see others j
start after the pests. The Company i
has found that traps with mountain 1
sheep meat as bait draw the rats
away from the other delicacies of the 1
store.—Fairbanks Times.

887 ANCHORAGE LOTS SOLD.
The total number of lots sold at
Anchorage during the past summer
by the government through the land
office officials was 887, with a total
value of $165,450, of which amount
one-third was paid into the United
States treasury. The last sale which
| was held early in November, disposed
of 84 lots at an average price of
$100 each. No more lots will be sold
at Anchorage until next summer, at
which time the acreage tracts sur
veyed last fall by the government en
gineers will be sold.
MOOSE MEAT PLENTIFUL.
Reports from Seldovia state that
the recent heavy falls of snow have
caused the moose to seek shelter in
the valleys and near the shore line
and that the residents of that section
are getting a plentiful supply of fresh
meat for the winter
EAGLE RIVER BRIDGE NEARING
COMPLETION.
Latest advices from Anchorage are {
o the effect that the bridge across «
Cagle river, on the Anchorage-Mata-j<
uiska railroad, is nearing completion. J
riie bridge is about fifteen hundred
eet long and ninety feet high. The
lien working on the steel crews are
irdered to report for work as soon as
he bridge was completed so that the'
:ars can cross, when the track will j
>e taken up again.
