COMMISSIONER

critic;sing him for releasing Felix
boucher, who last November killed
tius.afson "a Willow creek. Mr.. Cross
ley telis Brnhn that he should no. have

the province OF commissioner to de-

was Il question for the grand jury. Mr..
Cros>ley wrote, and in future cases the
con- missioner should hold a man over

is sufficient, as was clearly so in the
Boucher case.
1t would appear that MIR. Crossley's

picking TO IN official in BRUINS posi-
tion. Should he, in the exercise of IS
duties rs coroner, after summoning a

the district attorney, he would be
required to disregard his own action
as coroner. Thus Coroner Bruhn and
Commissioner Bruhn might get at log
serhaads one with the other. If they
should get excited and conclude to
shoot it OUT" how would the district
attorney decide which killed the other?
Would he call it suicide or homicide?
At all events, it does not appear that
Boucher's discharge will result in any
thing more serious than the saving of
a lot of expense to the government and
of bother and loss to few witnesses.
He went through Tanana recently on a
self-i!nposed journey to Fairbanks,
there to await such action as may be
taken against him. 1t is said the dis

Potatoes Fed Swine.

The aim of experiments just COM
pleted on swine was to compare gluten
inmeprial feed -four and a mixture of
oats, oil meal and imperial -four as
feeds for swine. and to obtain data as
to the value of potatoes as supple
ment to these feeds. The main feed
ing period lasted forty-two days and
there were ten pigs in each lot The
basal ration consisted of barley and
bran. The average daily gain on the
supplementary ration of gluten and
potatoes was 1.35 pounds per head at
a cost of ASA cents per pound. On
the gluten ration the average dairy
gain was SO pound per head at a cost
of Gil cents per pound. On the i'm
perial -four and potato ration the av-
erage daily gain was III pounds per
head at a cost of 4.6 cents per pound.
On the imperial -four ration the aV-
erage daily gain was 80 pound per
head al a cost of S.41 cents per pound.
on a mixture of oats, imperial hour
and oil meal the average daily gain
was 1T pounds per head at cost
OF 4.6S cents per pound.
