WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACT
l RED FURS IN THE NORTHWEST and all we ask of you Mr. Shipper
is to give u< the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that
mp pay more for furs and make quicker returns than you can get any
where in the country. We have been in business in Alaska for 36 years and
have built up a very extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all
* parts of the United States, Canada and in a great many European Cities.
By shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaskan industry but
v«u are helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely as we buy direct from the trap
* per and trader and sell direct to the consumer, thus we are able to pay
you a better price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS
THE SAME DAY SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
If so desired when your shipment amounts to $100.00 or more, we will
wire our hid and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense 1
and we will ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to he fair with yourself as well as with us and 1
make us a trial shipment, the result will make you a steady shipper.

FREAK WINTER IN MONTANA
HELENA, Mont., Jan., 2G— This
has been a “freak" winter in Montana
Late November and early December
were almost the coldest in the history
of the state. During toe coal sti*« '
when little fuel was to be had, tlv
mercury hovered around 20 below and
often reached 80.
As Foon as the miners resumed
work the temperature shot up and the
latter part of December was balmy
and grasshoppers were seen in the ,
fields.
