NOTICE.
The best way to build up your
own town is to do your trading
P at home. Patronize your home
merchants. If they succeed,

the goods and they have the
money. Trade at home and we
keep both the goods and the
money. ,

H THERE ABOUT THINGS OF '
PASSING INTEREST.
A friendly correspondent has tho
following to say: "Many people
about Coos Bay are watching, with.
decided interest, the
Gardens tariff action on lum-
nnd her. Do they look as
Tariir. closely to tho farmingr
and gardonlng indus
tries in this vicinity? Do they ask
their grocer for tho vegetables and
fruits and berries grown near home?
To grow our own garden products
and use them 'locally will do as
much to advance tho prosperity of
this community as a duty on lum
ber. We do not have to look to,
nor wait upon, Congress, to grow
our own gardens and raise our own
chickens; they are in our own con
trol." "Of all tho farms In the world per
haps the most remarkable is In Alas
ka on a small branch of the Tanana.
river, only i2 miles south of tho
Arctic Circle,' said a Portland trav
eling man at the Chandler today.
"It is owned and oper
Hot Water ated by a mar named
Fanning. Knrshner.
"A few years ago
Karshner was engaged in hunting
gold when he camo across something
which astonished him greatly. It
was a little stream of hot water. Ho
traced the stream to a spring, which
was likewise hot, and presently it
became obvious that a considerable
area was underlaid by such spring.
Promptly deciding that this was a
discovery more valuable than a gold
mine, Karshner gave up prospecting,
obtained a quantity of vegetable
seeds of various kinds and started
in to raise garden truck.
"Tho temperature In that region,
sometimes falls to 5C degrees below
zero, but a natural system of hot
water heating, free of cost, was Just
tho thing for truck gardening near
the Arctic circle, where potatoes
have a market value of 2G cents a
pound and other vegetables bring
prices in proportion.
Karshner's farm occupies a fiat
area with a convenient slant toward
the south. Hot water, oozing out of
tho ground, forms three small
Etreams which empty into tho nearby
river. The warm spring extends over
a distance of about a mile, and as
tho owner says, tho heat must "bo
felt to be believed. Ho goes on to
say that the place has a climato of Its
own, for often there is no frost when
It Is freezing everywhere olso.
"This hot water farmer has seven
ty hens and six pigs. He claims that
his crop of potatoes this year will
average over 300 bushels to tho
acre. Tobacco grows finely and to
matoes are a success. Squashes of
various kinds aro grown, somo of
them weighing as much as fifty
pounds. Not content with that.
Karshner gets $1 apiece for his1
muskmelons."
