STEFANSSON TO
INVESTIGATE DEER
RAISING FOR CANADA
Special to the Nojne Nugget by The Associated Press:
SEATTLE, (By Mail)—New fortunes still lie In the far north for
adventurers who* will go into the Arctic section of Canada and Alaska and
% raise reindeer for the outside world markets, according to Vilhjalmur
Stefansson, Canadian Arctic explorer.
With the meat supply of the outside world decreasing annually,
some day the bulk of the meat used in Europe and America will be brought
down from .tundra plains lying along tho northern edge of the world, the
explorer predicted here recently.
"Reindeer carcasses can lie landed in Seattle at present at a total
cost of between $7 and $8 and bring ah average of about $30 each, leaving
a clear profit of about $22 for each animal," Stefansson said.
At present a large amount of reindeer meat from the Seward Penin
sula section of northwestern* Alaska is being sold In Minnesota. The meat
retnilt)' at a price a bit higher than, beef but it is expected to drop in price*
as the supply increases.
Investigations are being made by Stefansson for the Canadian gov
ertnnent regarding the feasibility of transplanting reindeer into northwestern
Canada for .raising for the oytside markets Over 1,000,000 acres of northern
Canada lie ready for .the herds. Stefansson estimated. These lands are rich
with northern vegitation which it is said will support the animals the year
round, regardless of good or bad weather conditions According to one
scheme suggested the reindeer would be (trought across the Atlantic from
Scandinavian countries for the transplanting in northeastern Canada. The
northeastern section would be selected because of the fact It is closer than
other parts of northern Canada to the markets of Europe It is said that
it costs more to transport .reindeer meat from northwestern Alaska to
Seattle than from northeastern Canada to England. Nome, Alaska, people
who recently formed a company to raise and ship reindeer have four large
herds and are considering using an airplane in herding the animals.

EL PASO, Texas, (By Mail)—Agitation against the marrying of
Chinese ^nen and Mexican women is spreading in Sonora. Chlchuahua and
other west coast states of Mexico. This has long been a source of much Ill
feeling against the Chinese as many have married Mexican women In the
north. Villa gave this as his reason for killing many Chinese at the time
of his campaign in 1917 and was credited with saying the Chinese were trying
to make a "yellow race" of his people.

Doctor Says Ordinary Nuxatod Iron
Will Make Nervous Rundown Peo
ple 100% Stronger in Two
Week’s Time in Many
Ca.* .
NEW YORK, N. Y.—"One glance
is enough to tell which people have
iron In their blood," said Dr. E. Sauer,
a Boston physician who has studied
widely both in this country and
in-Great European medical institu
tions, in a recent discourse. They are
the ones that do and dare. The others
ars la the weakling class. Sleepless
nights spent worrying oVer supposed
ailments, constant dosing with habit
forming drugs and narcotics for ner
vous Weakness, stomach, liver or kid
ney disease and useless attempts to
brace up with strong coffee or other
stimulants are what keep them suffer
ing and vainly longing to be strong.
Their real troubl3 Is lack of Iron In the
blood. Without Iron the blood has no
power to change food into living tis
sue and therefore, nothing you eat
does you any good; you don’t get the
strength out of It The moment Iron
Is supplied the multitude cf danger
ous symptoms disappear. I have seen
dozens of nervous, rundown people
who are ailing all the time, double
and even triple their strength and en
durance and entirely get rid of every
sign of dyspepsia, liver and other
trouble In from ten to fourteen days’
time simply by taking Iron In the
proper form. And this, after they had
in some oases been doctoring for
month without any benefit
If yen are not strong or well you
owe It to yourself to make the follow
ing test: See ho* long you can work
or how far you can walk wlthcut be
coming tired. Next take two five
grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron
three times per day after meals for
two weeks. Then test your strength
again and aee for yourself how much
you have gained. There Is nothing
like good old iron to put color in your
cheeks and sound, healthy ilesh on
your bones. But you must take iron
in a form that can be easily absorbed
and assimilated like nuxated iron 1
you want It to do you any good,
otherwise it may prove worse than
.useless.
NOTE—Nuxated Iron recommended
above by Dr. E. Sauer, is one of the
newer organic iron compounds. Un
like the older Inorganic Iron products,
it Is easily assimilated, does not in
jure the teeth, make them black, nor
upset the stomach; on the oontrary, it
is a most potent remedy, in nearly
all forms of Indigestion, < s well ss for
nervous, run-down conditions. The
Manufacturers have such great confi
dence in Nuxated Iron that they of
fer to forfeit $100.00 to any charitable
institution if they cannot take any man
or woman under SO who lacks Irba
and increase their strength 100 pel
cent or over in four weeks' tkne pro
vided they have no serious organic
trouble. They also offer to refund
your money if it does not at least
double your strength and endurance In
ten days’ time. It is dispensed In thli
city by Lomeri Bros. (Successors to
Butler "'Mauro and Co.,) and Hill's
Pharmacy and all other druggists.

FEDERAL JUDGE IS
VICTIM OF CURIOUS
LEGAL MIXUP
Special to tlte Nome Nugget by The Associated Press:
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Ry Mail)—The surrender of former Judge J.
S. Kvan.s, to begin his jail sentence for contempt ..f federal court has added
another'chapter to the tangled history of the right to compel a county in the
Missouri hills to pay a bonded indebtedness for a railroad never constructed.
It. was in 187L thgt Dallas county, with other Missouri and Kansas
communities, saw visions of tremendous industrial development. Strangers
appeared with a "pen and paper” railroad from St Louis to Fort Scott. Kan.,
and Dal la:? county voted $225,000 bonds iX a bonus to the promoters. The
reed was never built, and Dallas count’s “paramount issue" was born when
the first interest payment fell due. In all political campaigns, candidates
| for county judgeships have cried. "We will refuse to pay the bonds.’* After
election successful candidates have gone to the hills to avoid taking aetioh.
Tile bonds eventually went to an eastern capitalist who resumed the litigation
of his predecessors to collect interest. Judgements had been entered into
from time to time in federal courts. Ry 1911 the principal and accrued in
terest lijid reached $1,023,000, payment of which would take 18 cents on every
dollar of vahiabtion in the county, it was said. A judgment' was obtained
and the federal court directed tire Dallas count.? clerk to call a special elec
tion to vote bonds to pay $70,000 of the interest. With that action, the
[county clerkship was added to the list of recluse officialdom of Dallas county.
Kfforts to serve summons on the jurists were*redoubled. I’ox.ses of deputies
from the United State's Marshal's office in motor cars rolled along the trails
through hills and woods. Others, disguised as fishermen and hunters, trekked
through thickets and along creeks without success. Federal Judge Van
Valkenhurgh issued an order of contempt against the three Dallas county
judges last March. Judges Monroe Quigley and .1. K Thomas sought the
safety of the woods. In the night, deputies surrounded Judge F'vans’ home
and he was brought into Federal Court where lie refused to agree to a bond
levy and,was sentenced to six monthes in jail for contempt. The Court of
Appeals recently affirmed the decision and the judge, who had been released
pending decision, appeared to begin serving sentc1u:c.
Judge Kvans, who is now out of office and therefore Mas ii" power to
[act on the tax levy, was taken to Springfield, Mo. Whether he must serve
Ids sentence is till somqwhat in doubt.
Meanwhile, Dallas county is without a. railroad.
