BIG FINANCIAL PAPER
 TALKS JUNEAU MINE

The Boston News Bureau, one of the leading financial publications of the country, contains the following concerning the Alaska-Gastineau Min ing company:
 "The Alaska.Gastineau Mining Go. the operating company whose secur' ities are controlled by the Alaska Gold Mines Co.,-disbursed during the year 1913 for construction, develop ment and equipment, the sum of S2, 5OO.OOO. Of this sum the payroll, paid in Alaska, amounted to $1,O79,OOO.
 Materials and supplies were pur chased from the merchants of Juneau during the same period amounting tc more than S5OO,OOO.
 Average number of men employed each month throughout the year on construction and development was 762 while the greatest number of men em ployed during any one month was 96O
 "The construction and development program now being carried out was de cided upon and authorized in July 1912. and there has been no cessa tion of activity since operations be gan. The essential features of this program included the development of the Perseverance mine, building oi mills and development of the neces mills to the point of treating 5000 tons sary power to run the mines and the of ore per day"

Territorial Government BIT.

Territorial Government Bill. N
 "S. The passage of bill carrying into effect the suggestion and recom' mendation contained in the Presidents message to Congress of December 2d' 1913, from which quote the following;
 ",A duty faces us with rgeard to Alaska which seems to be very press ing and very imperative; perhaps l should say double duty, for 1t con cerns both the political and material development of the Territory. The people of Alaska should be given the full Territorial form of government and Alaska, as a storehouse should be unlocked {,
 q refer now to the full Territorial form of government mentioned by the President. The present Organic Act prevents the local legislature from dealing with many subjects, among them being the game, fish, liquor and schools. Whatever objections may have been made heretofore against the control by the Territory of game, fish and liuuor within it's confines, none has ever been made against control of its schools by its own people
 "The school situation in Alaska is in most chaotic state. While the na' tive population has received the very finest consideration, (and l desire to pay my respects to the Bureau of Ed ucation and congratulate 1t upon the splendid work that 1t has done and is doing) nothing has been done for the white children, except supply their schools with sufficient funds that ought to insure splendid educa- tional system.
 "The schools of the Territory are greatly handicapped by a lack of that coordination which is universal else where in the United States.
 "There is no uniformity in the con- duct of educational work in different localities.
 "There is no more crying need at the present time than that of definite uniform courses of study for the grades.
 What Alaska needs is an entire code of school laws. At present our Legislature has not the power to for mulate such code.
 "The granting of full form of Ter ritorlal government as suggested in the message of the President would speedily dispose of this unsatisfac' tory state of our school affairs and would not entail any expense on the part of the Federal government.
 "These are the matters of the most pressing nature confronting the Terri tory of Alaska. None of them sug' gests any radical change of established policies; they are all endorsed by the administration and I think ought to be disposed of at this session of Con- gress."

The thorough screening of all win

found successful and desirable. When

taken to brush the flies from the ami

The sides OF the trenches may be

Destruction OF Immature stasea and
Prevention Of Breeding.
Since straw stacks have been found
to be the principal breeding places
OF the stable fly In the grain belt. the
proper care of the straw is by far
the most important step in control.
| The straw should be stacked more
carefully than is ordinarily done when
1t is desired to keep it for protection
and food for live stock. This may be
accomplished by making the sides Of
the stack nearly vertical and rounding
it up on top, in order the better to
shed the rain.
| So far as Is possible, all straw which
10 not required for winter food for
stock should be disposed OF immediate
ly by burning or by scattering 1t over
the land soon after thrashing. and
subsequently plowing II under, or
by burning the stack. The blowing
under OF the straw is the most advis-
able method Of procedure, as by this
practise large amounts Of humus are
added to the soil. Dat straw 10 most
generally used for feeding purposes.
and it is this straw which forms the
principal breeding grounds for fiies.
It is. therefore, important that all the
oat straw needed for seed purposes or
bedding be baled and stored under
cover. and that the remainder be
promptly burned or scattered. All
straw stacks not consumed by stock
during the winter should be promptly
disposed of in the early spring, as
these stacks furnish flies continuously
during the spring aud summer
