U. S. MARSHAL AT
FAIRBANKS TOLD
TO RAISE FOOD
FAIRBANKS.—(By mail.)—In re
sponse to an inquiry addressed to the
department of justice several days ago
relative to a small amount of money
for fertilizer for the grounds adja
cent to the detention hospital, the
marshal's office yesterday received a
communication giving the authority
asked, and at the same time instruct
ing the United States marshal to raise
everything he possibly can during the
coming summer. As a consequence,
Chief Deputy Marshal Joe Miller is
now scouting around with the idea of
working the prisoners who are serv
ing terms in jail, his intention being
to raise all of the vegetables that will
be consumed in the jail during the
summer and also during the next win
ter.
Last year approximately $1,000
worth* of vegetables of all kinds were
raised at the detention hospital. It
is therefore expected that several
good sized plots of ground will be cul
tivated this summer by the aid of the
prisoners.

SWEDISH POET
AND ASSOCIATES
DEAL IN FISH
Seward will now have the opportun
ity to secure rhymes with its fish,
S. Lundblad having purchased the
Seward Fish company from James and
Oliver. Capt. S. S. Johnson and his
partner, Ed. Jacbbsen, are associated
with Lundblad in the deal. Concern
ing the deal Lundblad says:
“These energetic and persevering
fishermen and myself have formed a
partnership to furnish the citizens of
Seward with first class deep water
fish of all kinds, each in its own sea
son. There are now on hand halibut
and red snapper.
“Against cod fished from deep wa
ter no person should have prejudice.
Served with shirred butter it is a verit
able delicacy. Cod can be obtained
if notice is given a few days before
it is desired. Salt cod and salmon
bellies are on hand and also salted
ooligan.
“My endeavor will be to handle fish
of all directions and to try to develop
the opportunity that this locality un
doubtedly has as a fishing center.”
True to his reputation for poetry,
Lundblad inscribed the following ap
peal to the appetites of those who
might forget fish once a week:
On folks who have not wit enough
To know that fish n
Is wholesome, not at all as tough
As meat oft used for food
I do not figure, not at all;
They cry, “No fish for me,
My means are not as yet so small.
Fish! We cannot agree.”
Some think the fish goes to the brain
I am afraid my cure,
However willing, were in vain,
Could not be perfect, sure.
All those the fact do not deny
That people eating fish
Life’s hardships do quite well defy,
Leave naught for strength to wish.
• %• •
I welcome to my salv’ry ware
A course of fish, than meat,
Is style that here should not be rare;
Fish makes your temper sweet.
To those who have our place at heart
I say: Eat lots of fish!
It gives our industry the start,
At leasi a week a dish.
—S. L.
