Dr. Stone's Drug StOr-,
Tho worldr's most unlquo game mar
ket is in Fairbanks, Alaska. If you
will take the troublo to examine tho
latest map of tho vast and valuable
northwest territory purehaeed by Unolo
Sfttn from Russia In 1807, you will find
that Fairbanks Is en the Oholeim river,
In tho rich Tanaaa, district, of which It
is the thriving metropolis. It lies close
to tho Arctic circle and In common with
other communities in the valley of the
Yukon has an average mean tempera
ture of about 10 degroos below zero dur
ing tho months of November, Decem
ber, January, February and Marok, At
intervals during the long winter season
tho thermometer goes as low ns 75 de

kU It Is almost onporflHoos to soggost
that tho market, operating no it doos
only during tho months named, Is spared
the expense of artificial refrigerating
apparatus.
Contrary to a widely prevalent Im
pfefttion, the country round nbeut Fair
banks is fertile and capable of produc

mountain- sheep and goats. Bears also
abound.
The territorial gamo laws provide that
moose, oarllwm and deer shnll not bo
killed during tho Interval from January
1 to OotolMr 1, but that tho oaroaMSs
of any of these animals killed between
October 1 and January 1 may bo mar

Now horo ia where tho novelty begins.
