give a finely finished production in

BURBANK SAYS ALASKA
 WILL FEED AMERICA

DAWSON, Y. T.-Alfred Burbank, noted plant specialist, brother of Luther Burbank, after visiting here, declares the valleys of Alaska and Yukon have marvellous capabilities for root crop production. He says:
 Give me time in Alaska and will evolve potato that will be adapted thoroughly to conditions there and tha. will be free from water, equal to any grown in the world. and that will enable Alaska, with her thousands of miles of fine valleys. to- supply all the potatoes needed in the United States. Amer ica's potato lands are already short and much more will be needed. Alas ka may be looked to for the future supply. Alaska also should ship cabbages, turnips. celery and all kinds of root crops. The govern ment railways and rivers afford the natural highways. Siberian apples should thrive in Alaska"

Love and Lunaey Abroad In June.

PARIS, July 23.-June,, when Cupid is buisest, is also the month of lun- atics, according to Dr. Roubinovitch
 chief of staff at the Bicetre Hospital for the Insane here His statistics, which cover number of years, show June to lead all other months by far with it's average number of new cases of mental breakdown. Septem- ber shows the smallest average. The scale runs: June 1896, May 1,753, July 1,745. October 1.744, March l. 729. January 1.709, December 1892, April 1,649. August 1882, November I614. February 1,5O3, September l. 501. The alienist believes that spring, with it's effects on the average ner. vous system, has something to do with the averages.

LONDON, July 23.-A visit from the stork is expected by Prince and Princess Arthur of Connaught this summer. The Princess is the only Duchess in her own right among the British peerage and, by the terms of the patent, if she has only daugh- ters the dukedom of Fife will pass to her sister, the Princess Maud, and if the latter has no sons it will lapse. If, however, son is born to Prin- cess Arthur he will inherit the duke dom. Prince Arthur and the then Duchess of Fife were married last October.

The work of boring the Simplon tunnel through the Alps was started on Aug. 13 1898, and the last rock partition between the two boring gal leries fell on Feb. "A, 1905. Enor. nous difficulties were overcome in its construction. The temperature at times was so high that it was al most impossible for the workmen to carry on their operations, and the soft, crumbling character of the rock was a further hindrance. But the worst and most dreaded foe was the tremendous flood of hot and cold water streams which poured out of the inmost recesses of the mountain, bringing destruction in their course and annihilating everything that came their way. The tunnel is the lowest of those already bored through the Alps. Trains started to run through the tunnel in 1906. After train passes into the tunnel doors are closed behind it.
