!>r. Harvey W. Wiley, our \ationalI> known food expert. and
recogni*«*d as an absolute authority on fmalN says:
Cabbage is one of the v»getables which is found ito be richest
in V.itamines. It contains all three of the^ Vitamines. 1 am. there
fore. a great believer in the free use of CABBAGE.
BUT AFTER AM* I THINK THERE IS NO
FORM IN WHICH CABBAGE CAN BE
CSKI> TO SUCH AN ADVANTAGE AS IN
S A U E R K K A l T.
You may not know that SAUER KRAUT is the father of
ensilage. You doubtless are familiar with, the ),w»11diw and
pleasure with which rows eat ensilage. Ensilage is the SAUER
KRAUT of the dairy industry. Some person* an* unkind enough
to insinuate that the reason rows like ensilage is bt'eause it con
tains a little alcohol! It probably does, and so does SAUER
KliAUT, but it is well within the liinio‘of the Volstead Act.
I wish, ton. Unit III.- lovers of ttAI'Klt KIM ITT would KAT IT
RAW. It is much more wholesome that way, and I think more
palatable. The fact Is, that the American people do not uppr<*eiafe,
enough, the \alue of S A V E R K R A V T.

WATKll DELIVERED
UNDER DIFFICULTY
The heavy snow storm of this

passable for a short period, until
scrapers and teams leveled the deep
drifts. The water wagon tipped
over three different times on Thurs-!
day while attempting to reach town
from the well on Snake river. Side
streets, receiving little travel, still

March 30th ia Seward's Day, a day

the people of Alaska setting aside
a day of commemoration of the
statesman who accomplished the
purchase of this wonderful territory
'The Pioneers of Alaska, Igloo No.

BUZZARD DOES CONSIDERABLE
DAMAGE THRU CITY
The prevailing blizzard of this
week was from a favorable direc
tion, the southeast and consequently
the temperature was high. On
Wednesday night the thermometer
climbed to plus thirty and a fine
sleet fell. Considerable damage
was done thruout the city. Smoke
starkt were b own down and s<n-»r
al windows blown In. The «"ry
Clerk’? olHce suffered damage to
one of the large Fouth windows,
which was later . replaced. The
high wind forced the waters of Ber
ing Sea to back up and akmg the
beach frequent strips of water were
IvMible. Certain residents at the
Blast end of town remained up all
night fearing that the ice would be ;
raised and piled up on the beach,1
thereby endangering buildings, for- <
innately this was not necessary as
the ice proved too firmly anchored.
On the eve of my* departure for
the legislative session at Juneau, I
wish to tender my mincere thanks
to the Citisena of Nome and the
Beeond Division for the very large
representative note I received at the
laot election, and my appreciation
of the trnet and confidence the peo
ple hare pot in me. While at Jun
ean, I shall at all (times arork for
and support any progressive legisla
tion which win be of benefit as a
whole, and diall work for the best
interests of Alaska and the Second
Division in particular. I win al
ways welcome requests and sugges
tions as to what legislation ought
tr be passed. I regret to hid good
bye, even if only temporarily, to my
many staunch Mends here, but I
hope to meet and greet them again
In the near future.
Sincerely yours,
JOHN A. WILSON.

Fl it WARDEN RETURN'S
FROM TRIP TO YUKON
Frank Dufresne, Fur Warden, re
turned to Nome on Jan. 16th after
an absence of one month on official
duty to the Yukon section.
Leaving Nome Dec. 16th the War
den visited all the villages along
the coast as far as UnaJakleet. as
st mbling the natives together and
in plain common sense English ex
pounded to them the laws under
v.-hirih they were to be protected.
He assured them that the law was
two edged, it was for their own pro
tection and also called for their co
operation and strict observance.
From Unalakleet the Portage was
crossed to Kaltag and while in that
vicinity the fur catch all along the
Yukon was checked up by means of
the telephone. Mr. Dufresne deter
mined to make a personal inspec
tion of a certain trap line and for
two days followed a long legged In
dian, using snow shoes. The Indian
made the trail Interesting for the
warden and set a pace sufficiently
swift to keep him warm.
Along the Yukon furs are plenti
ful, but the destruction of beaver
houses by trappers will result in a
closed season, unless the trappers
adopt different tactics.
Mr. Dufresne stated that great
interest is being manifested in the
Nugget articles referring to the Fur,
Fish and Game Protective Associa
tion. The entire trip was a success
and the Warden accomplished his
.mission in a very satisfactory man
In a few days Mr. DuFresne will
leave on the longest trip of the win
ter, he will g<o into the heart of the
Kuskokwim country and remain un
til the breakup forces his return
overland.
With* reference to Fur Law viola
tors the Warden states that Eski
mos along the Yukon are exceeding
ly tractable; they show apprecta
ti n of the Intent and purpose of the
law and give prompt evidence of
their intention to observe it. In
dians, however, are harder to handle
and some likely will be need as ex
amples to demonstrate that the law
must be obeyed.
M Kaltag the thermometer rag-,
Isteved 66 degrees minus, the cold-,
eit on the trip. In the main the!
trails arc in good condition and the
traveler bad no difficulty in reach
ing his objective.
