Pigs Is Pigs”
I
A ham is a piece of pig. Most pigs remain plain
pigs—a few go to the County Fair and win blue rib
bons. A ham from “just a pig” is “just a ham.” To
make sure that the ham will be truly “delicious,”
Frye-Bruhn and Co. starts with the pigs, grain-fed
animals, reared in cleanliness, prize-winning stock.
Throughout the process of curing the thought
is kept in mind that this is not just a “ham” in the
making—it’s a “Frye’s Ham,” requiring the experi
ence and genius of the Frye-Bruhn organization to
make it worthy of the Frye label. Then, after all,
the label isn’t necessary! Just taste it! If it’s “deli
cious,” it’s Frye-Bruhn’s ham.

“DEATH VALLEY
SCOTTY" LUG
PASTORAL LIFE
MYSTIC OF FAMED FABULOUS
MINE ADVENTURE RAISING
TROPICAL FRUITS
According to California newspapers
“Death Valley Scotty,” who acquired
fame early in, 1900 as the possessor of
a mysterious and fabulously rich gold
mine in the Funeral range, western
Nevada, is following the prosaic cal
ling of farmer. The seat of his pas
toral paradise in Death Valley, from
which he took his pseudonym, and
where many of the exploits entering
into “Scotty’s” romantic career were
staged. From the nomadic habits of
a desert Arab, “Scotty” has settled
down to raise semi-tropical fruits and
is making a success of it.
“Scotty,” or Walter Scott, as he is
known on the birth register, stepped
into the limelight twenty-odd years
ago when he chartered a train and
took a party of hts friends from Ne
vada to New York. Some claimed that
the railroad company supplied the spe
cial as an advertisment for Nevada.
Be that as it may, “Scotty” had ar
rived in Barstow, near the eastern
California line, with fabulously rich
gold ore. All he would reveal of its
origin was that it came from Death
Valley, that mystic region lying below
sea level and braved only by the most
experienced and hardy denizen of the
Nevada-California desert; where tem
peratures rose to 135 in the shade,
and -where the mineral miasma, ris
ing from the deposits of sulphur, bor
ax and arsenic challenged man and
beast to survive. The very nomencla
ture of the region was sufficient to de
ter many of the most intrepid—Fur
nace creek in the Funeral range, lead
ing into Death Valley—all names cal
culated to bring awe and uncanny
thoughts.
Many sought to ascertain the where
abouts of “Scotty’s” secret Eldorado,
but to the importunities of even his
closest friends he was taciturn and
secretive, parrying all inquiries with:
“I have got ’em guessing, haven’t I?”
Scotty’s sartorial embellishments
consisted of a black suit of clothes, a
black shirt, blask slouch hat of the
Kentucky colonel style with this som
bre garb relieved only by a flaming
red nectie. To add a further uncanny
and sepulchral touch to the outfit he
recruited “Slim,” a black mule with
drooping ears and a disposition in
dicating that he had been rounded up
in the nether world -whence he de
sired to return.
Whenever ‘ Scotty put m an ap
pearance at Los Angeles or San Fran
cisco he exhibited several sacks of
fabulously rich ore, all of which had
been packed on “Slim” from Death
valley. Then, with a roll of bills
which he could scarce stuff in his
pants pocket, he proceeded to wan
der where the lights were bright and
the music was spirited and syncopat
ed. Yet few could claim that they
had seen “Scotty” beyond the limit of
his cups. And he was the proverbial
“tight-wad,” allowing the curious to
purchase the drinks, caviar and other
epicurean tit-bits merely for the ro
mance of knowing the mystic from
Death Valley. Many there were who
thus sought to wring from “Scotty”
the secret of his hidden gold mine,
but as yet no one has penetrated the
mask he wore for so many years.
When his periodical visitations lad
en with rich ore ceased to make good
copy in the newspapers, Sydney Nor
man, now an official of the North
western Mining Congres, and one of

N. p. blotters received
Hundreds of handsome blotters were
received in, the last mail from, Karl K.
Katz, genial Seattle passenger rep
resentative for the Northern Pacific.
The blotter has a pretty reproduction
of Multnomah Falls, Ore., with an ad
vertisement of the “North Coast Lim
ited”—a travel triump! It will be re
called every time Mr. Katz makes a
trip to the Territory he brings lots
of good things for free distribution.
The last time he showered N. P. ci
gars about with a lavish hand, also
large N. P. maps of the United States.
His friends predict the next time he
comes North he is apt to bring a free
meal ticket for the N. P. dining ser
