NO MOKE I K ilE GARDEN SEEDS
For the past fifty years or more
Congress has appropriated several
hundred thousand dollars annually for
the purchase of garden seeds which
were distributed among the consti
tuents of Senators and Congressmen.
For the past twenty-five years Al
askans have had a share of these
seeds. They were distributed from
the headquarters of the Alaska Ex
periment Station at Sitka, and they
have aided materially in providing
the luxuriant vegetable and flower
gardens for which Alaska is becom
ing famous. The last Congress abol
i.*hed free seed distribution which J
order will also apply to Alaska.,
The Agronomist in charge of the
Alaska Experiment stations desires
us to make this fact known to our
readers by this timely notice so they7
can have time to send to seedsmen
for catalogues from which to select
seeds for spring planting. He advises
that our readers should act on this
information immediately7. There are
numerous well known seed houses in
all parts of the territory, and espe
cially in Seward. Now is the time
to make your spring selections so
they can be ordered soon after the
first of the year. Planting should
begin as early as the ground can be
worked.

MISSION AT FORT
YUKON DESTROYED
DAWSON, Y. T., Oct. 6.—The res
idence aid mission buildings at Fort
Yukon were consumed by fire, includ
ing the contents, which consisted of
wihter supplies and clothing. Defec
tive wiring is blamed for the catas
trophy. The hospital building was
saved. The news was brought here
by the steamer Yukon recently. Dr.
Grafton Burke was in charge and
has been for years past, working un
der Archbishop Stuck. Altho most
of the time Fort Yukon is a small
and quiet village, yet for a time dur
ing the summer and toward Christ
mas, when the fur buyers and hunt
ers congregate there the population
is increased to about 200 whites and
400 natives. This is one of the
greatest fur centers in the north.
THE QUESTION AT LARGE
IS WHO STOLE THE BOOZE
DAWSON, Y. T., Oct. 6.—In a re
cent shipment of liquor to the Ter
ritorial government from Vancouver,
passing through American territoi’y
via Skagway, it was found that there
were 90 cases short. Some of the
cases contained many empty bottles
and many cases showed evidence of
tampering. It develops that Goodwin
had a more certain method of getting
the goods intact as they were well
disguised with fruits and vegetables.
DAWSON, \r. T., Oct. 6.—Territor
ial Secretary A. H. A. Maltby on
Monday seized 118 crates of apples,
lemons, onions and sjpuds, consigned
to Dave Goodwin from Vancouver.
He found in the various crates val
uable cargo in the nature of 633 bot
tles of Scotch whiskey and rum.

KANSAS CITY DOCTOR
* INVENTS NEW TRUSS
New Discovery Heals Rupture With
out An Operation
Kansas City, Mo.' (Special)—A
new discovery which, experts agree, i
has no equal for curative effects in all
ruture cases, is the latest accomplish
ment of the well-known Hernia Spec
ialist, Dr. k Andrews, 821 Kock Bldg.,
Kansas City, Mo. The exti-aordinary
success of this new method proves
that it holds .and heals a rupture. It
weighs only a few ounces. Has no
hard gouging pads, no elastic belt, no
leg straps, no steel bands, and is as
comfortable as a light garment. It
has enabled hundreds of persons to
throw away trusses and declare their
rupture absolutely healed. Many of
these had serious double ruptures,
from which they had suffered for
years. It is Dr. Andrews’ ambition
to have every ruptured person enjoy
the quick relief, comfort and healing
power of his discovery, and he will
send it on free trial to any reader of
the Seward Daily Gateway, who writes
him. He wants one person in each
neighborhood to whom he can refer.
If you wish to be rid of rupture, for
good, without an operation, take ad
vantage of the doctor’s free offer.
Write him today.
BIG SAWMILL NARROWLY
ESCAPES DESTRUCTION
BELLINGHAM, Oct. 6.—The other
day, the Donovan and Bloedel saw
mill, adjoining the plant of the Mor
rison Mill company, on the water
way, was enveloped by flames and
for a time it looked as though this
big plant would be totally destroy
ed. The first departments of neigh
boring towns, including Mt. Vernon,
Anacortes, and Lynden, were rushed
to the aid of Bellingham, and des
pite the high winds the fire was
brought under control with the loss
of four million feet of lumber. The
damage to the property is estimated
at about $400,000.
NOME KENNEL CLUB GIVES
GLAD HAND TO NELSON
SEATTLE, Oct. 6.—Lieut. Nel
son, after his arrival here recently,
received greetings from the Nome
Kennel club, of which he became life
member in 1920, when he flew from
New York to Nome. W. C. McGuire
as secretary, conferred the honor on
Nelson. When Nelson first heard a
shout of greeting from the Nome
boys, he was somewhat perplexed and
said, “I don’t get you.” Then light
dawned on him and he exclaimed,
“Why, it’s Mac from the Nome Ken
nel club.” He then asked about the
Lomen brothers and others whom he
had met in the North.

MAKING SURVEY OF
ALASKA PRODU< L
Noel W. Smithy special assistant
to the secretary of the interior is
making: a survey of the amount of
vegetables and produce that can be
raised in Alaska. In the course of
the survey, the percentage of home
grown products that could be pro
cured by the Alaska railroad last
year, and the percentage of products
necessary to buy from the outside
last year for the railroad, will be
found. It will probably be found that
the Alaska railroad could have used
more home products if such products
had been procurable.
