FIRM STARTED IN ALASKA
ADVERTISING HERE
In the advertising columns of the
Times today appears the advertise
ment of the F. S. Lang Manufacturing
Co., of Seattle, a concern which had
its birth in Alaska.
i
F. S. Lang, the man who founded
the firm, first began business in Nome,
where he manufactured stoves during
the mg gold rush. The product which
he turned out was so satisfactory that
1 he found it to his advantage to move
to Seattle, where he nows occupies a
large field.
The Lang range is so well known
in Alaska that no introduction is need
ed, and the company still depends ■
upon this territory for much of its
business.
