Alaska schools keep right up to
-taudard of the schools in the states.
I’he announcement yesterday in the
tlatewav that several former pupils
of the Seward High hail boon admitted
without question to certain educational
nstitir ons in the states, without ex
aminat ons and at that to higher grad
es, show- the Seward schools main
. tain efficiency in educational matters.
Fi\e former students from the Skag
wav schools were also lecently admit
ted to the l'niversit> of Washington,
having passed exceptional good exam
i nations.
In considering the merits of the
steel strike it would he well to seper

Store in Dortiand, the othei day.
“When 1 commenced taking Tanlac, *
continued Mr. Daiker, “1 had been \i
l>a*i health for four years, and hadn’t
been able to hit a lick of work for ov
er three months. 1 had been sufferin' |
from -lomach trouble during all th
time, and 1 had reached the poi.
win n everything I ate would give n.v
indigestion and cause gas to form so
had that l would be in misery for
hours at a time. I just got weaker all
the time, and finally got to where !
was hardly able to go at ad. Then,
last January. 1 had a severe attack of
tho ‘Flu’ and after getting over that,
«
my stomach was in worse condition
than ever, and l also found my kid
neys were in bad condition. 1 suffer
ed so much ^vith pains in my back
that I could hardly sle« p at all, and
couM not turn over in bed without
some assistance. The different medi
cines and treatment I had didn’t do rn<
any good at all, and I finally had to
give up work altogether, and had giv
en up all hope of ever getting well
again.
“Well 1 decided to make one more
effort . and give Tanlac a trial. 1 had
read so much about the good it was
doing others who suffered as l did,
and I saw* no reason why it should not
help me just as it had these other peo
ple. Why, it turned out to be the very
thing l needed, and I commenced to
pick up right away, and I just continu
ed to improve untill all my troubles
were overcome. 1 have been in perfect
health ever since, and am now as well
and hearty as any man. I went back
to work and have been steady at it
until now. and 1 am taking a vacation
during the rainy season, t never have
the leart sign of stomach trouble any
more, and my kidneys seem to be in
perfect condition. Tanlac is a wonder
ful medicine, anil 1 praise it every
where I go.”

M. II. Summers, in charge of the'
Alaska weather service, who returned
from an inspection of special and
co-operative stations of the weather !
bureau in the upper Yukon, Tunana
ami Copper River valleys, reports
having established two new stations i
for the recording of daily weather
conditions, one in the Kautisbna re
gion and the other in the coal regan
south of Xenana.
.Mr. Summers reports the Tanana
valley as* producing bumper crops
this yea . not only of vegetables of
all kinds but also of wheat , barley,
oat; and hay. In his opinion one of
the remarkable examples of the agri
cultural possibilities of that region
was aOO -acre oat field, mature and
in shock, that will thresh 70 bushels
to the acre. The popular conception

However, about four miles of the
road through tlu* Keystone canyon,
near Valdez, was washed out early
this spring and has not been repaired
and it was necessary to cover this on

result of automobiles not being able
