Letter to Mr.. G. H. Bingham,


Dear Sir: If you want your paint to
last as long as that Of other house
owners in your town is going to last,
you should use lead and zinc.
You can mix your own, or by Devoe,
as you like. The results will not be
the same, however. Devoe Ready
Paint is ground in oil and thoroughly
mixed. Machinery does it. Hand
work can't compete with machine
work, either In cost or thoroughneSs.
Mixing by hand is imperfect mixing;
and zinc is peculiarly hard to mix;
wants grinding.
Lead and oil is honest paint but less
durable. Lead is tender and zinc Is
tough. The proper mixture ground
together Is better than either alone.
French painters use zinc alone; but
American painters think 1t too hard,
and mix 1t with lead.

Most of the canneries that will probably remain closed are along the shore of Seutheastern Alaska, and in these eanaeries much of the fish canned has been of the inferior grades. Prices for these grades have been cut by the associated packers since the last season to figures below the actual cost of packing, and it is held that this Was done to force the inferior grades out of the market as a measure of protecting the market for the better grades.
 The men of the Fishermen's union have demanded d consider able increase in wages, and they claim that unless the canners agree to pay the advance they will be unable to operate their plants.
 Arrangements were made today for fishermen for canneries at Cop per river, and the wages agreed upon was f cents for red salmon and 10 cents for king salmon. The fishermen are also to be paid $15 a month from the time of arrival at the canneries until they leave, and should hump-back salmon or the lower grades be canned they should receive $l5 per 1000 fish. The canneries operating at karluk and at Cook inlet have agreed to pay the price demanded by the tisher- men.

development work will be started this season at the Copper river station erected at Copper Center. and also at kenai, on Cook inlet.
 On the Copper river the gov ernment has reservation of 500 acres which will be cleared grad gully; at present F acres of this land has been cleared and will be planted to different kinds of grain this spring. Equipment in the shape of agricultural implements and articles that cannot be ob- taincd in Alaska have been shipped and are now on their way in.
 Il don't claim, nor do 1 expect that we can SOW grain and mature crops of the same high quality of these samples every year. The seasons change 30 rapidly, the cli- mate Is 90 varying that We antiot reasonably expect success all tine time. If we could there would be little or no necessity for the ex- perlmental work that is being car ried on so extensively in Alaska. Even the farmers in this part of the country cannot rely on the crop until they have it harvested. Millions of dollars worth of grain has been ruined in this country from causes, if not as frequent, at least similar to what is liable to occur at any time in Alaska. 4 killing frost is no unusual thing in summer there.
 Il have great faith in the agri. cultural future and capabilities of Alaska. do not hesitate to advise young men to make that their ob- lective point; men who are locking for home whefe they can make a living. If they go out there with the expectation oi acquiring for tune in agricultural pursuits my advice then is to remain away.

IL was like beautiful, yelled woman, half hiding her charms, and it left tender, sweet melancholy in the soul, as from departed love.
 Continuing on my way l came to the brink of d cliff which over- looked our camp. Snugly nestled in the valley below were the dim outlines of cabins and tents. A glow-worm light peered out into semi-darkness from the windows of the cabin and thin gray smoke ascended straight to heaven as from an altar; twinkling orange light waved to and fro as someone attended to the dogs.
 On the other side of the valley the dark steep sides of tlse moun- tain rose, and the silence was broken by echoes of voices and bv the bowling of Siwash dogs. How strange this isolated bit of civiliza- tion appeared in its incongruous surroundings.
