NO AUTO MONEY
AVAILABLE YET
Counties Will Have to Wait
Till Bills are Paid Before
They Can Realize.

Some of the county officers over the
state have started to wonder why they
have not al vet received n money
from the automobile tax fund. The
fact is that there is no money for
distribution as yet and probably will
not be for a time more. The cost of
the tags have to be paid out of the
fund created by the sale of the tags
and as there were 10000 of them or
dered by former Secretary of State p.
n. Norton to be delivered before Feb
ruary l and be paid for at that time
there was not enough money on hand
and has not been enough taken in. to
pay for them. .l .
Secretary of State Thomas Hall said
when asked about the condition of
the fund lowing to the arrangement
for the payment for the tags. it has
been impossible for me to make any
distribution of the funds to the va
rious counties. as the registration to
date has been very light and We have

account, but as oon as this is done. I
hope to begin without delay, the re-
mittances of the amounts due to the
various counties of the state"
The following is a statement of the
affairs Of the fund up to the close of
business March 81. 1t will be noticed
that this statement carried a balance
but this has been cleaned out since
that time by another remittance made

Washington, Jan. 1.-The gov- ernment report on copper shows that the past year has been the record breaker in the production Of copper in the United states and Alaska. The output in Alaska Is higher than ever before especially Southeastern Alaska, which in- cludes the Copper River and the Prince of Wales Island districts.
 It is estimated that the total val ue of the mineral output of Alaska in 1912 is S2l,S5O,OOO, compared with S2O,65O, ,OOO for 1911. The val ue of the gold output of 1912 is es- timated at S16,65O, O,OOO: that Of 1911 was S16,S53,256. It is esti- mated that the Alaska mines pro- duced 2S,g4O.OO0 pounds of cop per in 19I2, valued at about S4,- s3O,OOO In 1911 the output was 27,267,S7l pounds valued at $3,36f, 6S4. The silver production in lSlZ is estimated to have a value Of $500, 900, as compared with S243,- 923 for lsI1. The value Of all oth- CT mineral products in 1912, includ- ing tin, marble, gypsum, coal, pc troIeum, etc. was about S260,00o, compared with s176,942 in 1911. The total value of Alaska's mineral production since 1880, when min ing first began, is, in round numbers S229, ,OOO, O,OOO, of which $202,OOO,OOo is represented by the value of the gold output. The total output of copper in Alaska since 1901 is about 9O,OOO, ,O0O pounds, valued at about Sl3,I45,OOO.

The ore Is to be carried to a mill of G. OOO-ton daily capacity, which is to be erected at tidewater. These en- terprises. together with the con- tinuation of work on the Kensing- ton mine and the reopening of the Jualin mine, in the Berners Bay district, constitute an assurance that the production of gold in AL aska will not fall off, even aside from the promise of a larger out put from other parts of the Terri tory. It Is reported that discover ies of rich gold-bearing quartz veins have been made on Funter Bay, Admiralty Island The mines were operated in the sitka district. as in the previous year. and the dis covery of a new collaborating quartz vein in the district Is reported.
 There was considerable advance of auriferous lode mining in the Ketchikan district during the year. The Goldstream mine was again op- erated. supplying a 5-stamp mill. A 1O-stamp mill was installed at the Valparaiso mine Two adit tunnels were started to intersect an auriferous quartz vein on the Bug Ey property, near smugglers Cove.

Washington, Jan. 14-Judge Rob ert Woodrow Archibald is guilty
 Sitting as a body of one, a com mittee on the whole, to study the evidence and determine his guilt or innocence. the United States senate, yesterday afternoon, decided that Robert Archibald was guilty on the first article of thirteen charges, Of having wilfully taken advantage of his position as Judge of the Com merce Court to further his own ends at the expense of justice.
 Archibald was in the ante room of the Senate chamber awaiting the decision of the court in inquiry. At four o'clock the senate had decided and declared him guilty on the first count, shortly afterward a vote was taken on the other counts, and with the exception of two or three he was found guilty of all charges.
 Then Senator Bacon of Georgia was chosen to pronounce judgment which had been agreed upon, and which is made and provided in cases of impeachment. At 4:SO in the afternoon of the thirteenth day of the month in 1918, Judge Robert Archibald was sentenced under thir- teen counts, to be forever removed from office of judge of the com merce court and to be forever dis

Seattle, Jan. 14-Marking a new era in Alaska transportation comes the announcement that the Northern Navigation Company, one of the largest steamboat operators on the Yukon River, this year will accept freight at Seattle and handle 1t all the way through to Dawson, Fair banks, Circle, Eagle, Panama, Ruby Iditarod, and other interior points via Skagway, the White Pass Rail road, Lake Laberge and the Upper Yukon River.
 To Alaska shippers, direct trans portation from Seattle means much. The new service will do away with double handling, personal responsi- bility for loss in the sledding of freight across the frozen Lake La berge to the waiting Yukon River boat and the clearance proceedings with the Canadian government of ficials.
 The Northern Navigation Company proposes to assume all responsibility for the safety of the goods from Seattle to the final destination in the interior and already has arrang- ed for the new river boat Pros pector, recently built by the White Pass Railway, to take shipments

RIB INTERIOR BUSINESS
 COMING VIA SKAGWAY

from lower Lake Laberge to Daw- son.
 There are three main routes to the interior of Alaska, the route via Lake Laberge being most used in the early spring months. Later in the summer, traffic moves heaV- fest over the route from St. Michael up the Yukon River, and in the winter over the trail from Chitina to Fairbanks. By way of St. Michael if takes about a month for freight to reach Fairbanks from Seattle. Via the Chitina route an lS-hour day delivery from Chitina to Fair banks is guaranteed, and via Lake Laberge it takes from two to three weeks to make delivery.
 The Northern Navigation company plans to start shipments from Seat tie for Dawson via the Lake La berge route about March and not later than April l.
 Heretofore, the Northern Nayiga- tiou Company has wintered one of the river boats, usually the Delta at Lower Lake Laberge and accept ed shipments at that point after they had been sledded across the frozen lake by the shippers. The new service will greatly simplify matters for the shipper.

(By w. NJ. KELLEYl

During July and August the right
kind of work must be given the late
potatoes regularly. for eternal vigi-
lance In the potato patch is the price
of good yield of tubers II they
are properly looked after they will
clean In the rows, with hardly
weed in hills.
AS soon as the plants show in rows
across Il field start the cultivator and
set the teeth to run four or five
inches deep the first time over the
ground This loosens up the com
pacted soil and gives the tiny rootlets
better chance to penetrate between
the soil PARTICLES.
From then maintain dirt or dust
mulch In between the rows and
around the hills. This is imperative
ly necessary to prevent the needless
waste of moisture by evaporation. To
check this the dirt mulch acts as a
blanket by cutting off the multitudes
OF little holes which appear through
the crust and through which the sun
pumps the water out very rapidly.
Ii Is n puzzle sometimes to know
just what Is the best tool to use at

This is for the purpose OF exposing

Every farmer should have an abun-
dant supply Of asparagus for his own
table from the latter part OF April
until after the first of July This In
one of the most wholesome OF vege-
tables and Is easily grown We would
suggest the mulching plan for busy
farmers. Strong one-year roots
should be planted just as early IN the
spring rs the soil can be prepared
and as soon as the plants are up the
ground should be mulched heavily
enough with fresh horse manure to
prevent weed growth and to thor
oughly preserve soil moisture. Four
inches of manure will accomplish
both OF these purposes Every rain
will carry liquid plant food to the
roots of the asparagus and the plants
will grow just as rapidly as under
the best OF cultivation Mulching
should be used much more largely by
farmers for growing asparagus. egg
plants. celery and bush fruits.

SPEEDY REMEDY FOR BLOAT
Many Good Animals Are Lost Because
Owner Did Not Know How to
Treat Case Properly.
CBy e. S. HANING)

AS long as green clover pasture
lasts bloat will cause the death OF
many a good animal simply because
the owner did not know how to treat
the case to effect speedy remedy.
Tapping, as every one knows. will
usually give relief, but aside from be
ing a particular piece of woyk it has
the disadvantage of leaving wound
that cuts the animal down in flesh,
and 1t must be protected from the
Gies during the healing process. Here
is treatment that have used
in dozen cases. 1t has never failed
although in some instances the ami.
mails were down on their knees. As
soon as the animal is known 70 be
affected get a pail of cold water and
pour it slowly over the distended
sides of the animal and along the
backbone. Repeat few minutes
later.
Bloat is caused by moist steam Or
vapor generated from the green, wet
stun In the animals paunch, aided
by the natural heat of the animals
body. The cold water quickly lowers
the temperature, causing the steam
to condense and form water. which
then passes off by way of the bowels.
