MONEY FOR
 THE BANNERS

It looks as though the man. Iuacture of fertilizer from sal mon offal may prove the sal- walton of the salmon canners of this region. At this time thous nnds tons of material without a superior for fertilizer pur- poses is being dumped over- board from the canneries of Alaska, which could be con- verled into fertilizer at small cost As told some time since in the Miner, Dr. J. w. Turren- tune is now in this region at the instance of the Federal gov ernment to look into the matter ani he is satisfied that the cail- ners are losing thousands Of dollars annually in that they do not preserve and market this valuable by-product. The can- nery at Klawock has installed Ia small plant this year which seems to be doing the business o,.1 n, T,,pro,4,,, to1l, fbo Miner Man that he recently shipped sample of the pro- ouct of tle Klawock plant to Washington for analysis-thc first shipment of salmon offat fertilizer to be made from an Alaskan cannery. The process Of manufacturing the fertilizer Is simple, the offal being steam ed in retorts first until thorough Ky cooked. It is then placed in a press and all the oil squeeZ- ed out, after which the solid matter is kiln-dried and Is then ready for shipment. The oii which is squeezed out is al most as valuable as the fertli::- ger itself being used in the man ufacture of liquid paint.

CHANGE OF HEART

 bask on downy beds of ease,
 and live on birds and terrapil and mama, and oysters fried. anI rich imported cheese. My wounded heart with anger used tp quiver, when noontime came and l sat down to eat, and fil- lcd myself with onions, bread and liver and moldy kraut anG picked porkers' feet But rnw. alas, that l am rich a Croesus, and live an quiIs and scrambled peaceck's tongue, I
 fold my hands in front (where
 all my grease isj and sigh and
 vesra for days when I was yOung. Where nabobs meet I
 -ig and wieId the gayel, my face each day the Board Of Trade expects: but 0, the days when was digging gravel
 when I could eat in forty dia- fleets. The dead dead days V hen meal time found me star Iv,ngl When all Was good aIst nothing tasted stale; no finger bowIs. no dainty stunts in cary- |i1g. Eut just 4 raid upon my dinner pail! My wealth can hay me yachts and speedy hor- ses. and motor cars and sum- Jers by the sea, and it vii. lfiBg me annual diyorces, but 1t can't bring my hunger back to me.-WALT MASON.

WHERE Is THAT RAPID TRANSIT?

Today marks the end of the ih.r. week that the Alaska gov trnlnent cable has been out of C. mnission, t. the great in c ,..enience and in many cases pecuniary loss io practically evslv man in the territory. To remedy 1t, the government, seven days after the break oc- cured, started the slowe>t and must unreliable vessel on Pug et Sound north to see what was :hs matter. outfitting her in t',e most meager manner possi- lle for the work in hand. Many of the vessels plying in inc Alaska trade make the run rp from Seattle to ketchikan Tn considerable less than 4S hours The Rapid" Transit was iA6 hours making the trip. and goodness only knows where she is now that she is north. and no one will even attempt to hazard a guess as to when she will get the cable back into shape again.
 Taken in its entirety, it is hard to reconcile some 6s the arguments offered in support oi government ownership of commodities with the govern ments actions III the cable bus mess. Tn theory it may be eu".i. Tn praes,.'e ii Is rotten. II some public service corpora ton operated the Alaska cable II ;s a certainty that three weeks would never elapSe in the luid- tlle of summer with the cable ont Of business. They woAj have had it working again with Fl a week. a. the government oG,:ld have had if & repair ship had been in the north ready for business as they are kept on the Atlantic.
 The least the government can do is to lay another cable from Seattle north, bringing it in through D!xons entrance to Eetchikan. Such a line could take care of all the business for the inside towns and leave ti.e present line for the through business. This would reduce tie probabilities of lack of communication fifty per cent, and give the inside towns from Skagway south a straight shoot to Seattle and the outside.
