FISH WAS so THICK
 HARD TO GET WATER
A Tacoma Man Has to Block Them
 Out of Stream

David Crockett, Y. M. c. A. noun tain climber, who went to Alaska on the steamer Admirad Watson in June and spent several months sight seeing, hunting, fishing and prospec- ting with a party of six, has return ed to Tacoma. He reports business thriving in the northern towns on the Alaskan coast. He compares the Avery river valley to Paradise valley on Mount Tacoma, and gives an interesting insight into con ditions in southeastern Alaska. He says:
 "We started north by way of the inland route and landed at the Granite mine the seventh day out in what is called Hobo hay on the west side on Prince Williams Sound 1 1.600 miles from Seattle. On the way up the steamer stopped from enc to several hours at each of the coast towns and passengers took in the sights.
 From the bottom of fish can nery at Ketchikan to the top of the Treadwell mine at Douglas is a route which teens with interest. From the unwholesome odors of de- caying silversides to the mercury covered slabs of gold. prosperity is found everywhere and Alaska bus mess is in good condition. On July 3 our party was ferried six miles across an arm of the sound to a place called Golden, a United States postoffice on the east side of Port Wells. Here we camped at the mouth of the Avery river. The stream was alive with salmon and salmon trout. The catches we made --ou'd not he believed. In Alaska, wherever running water is found, fish are in shoals. We had to put holes across the little creek to keep the salmon out of the branch where we got our water.
 "GaIne in the Avery valley is al- so plentiful. Spruce hens and ptarm-
 corresponding to our grouse and pheasants, are the birds of the region and there certainly are lots of them. The animals are black bear and mountain goats. One days hunt s7nlied our party with more meat than we knew what to do with in a 7-eek. The miners, prospectors and Indians living around Port Wells have all the fresh fish and fresh meat they want the year around, and the only cost is an hours time out on the hillside or along run ming stream"

HINTS FOR HOUSEWIVES

A range will keep black much longer if you first rub it with soap, then apply the blacking. Another way to get the same result is to add a little soap to the stove polish, which will prevent grease sticking to the stove and also give a gloss to the polish. Also rub soap on your hands and let dry. It will prevent the polish from getting into the pores. If there are red parts on the stove cover them with vinegar. A drop or two of molasses added to stove polish will make the stove much blaeker, especially where it has be- come red. Wash your stove occas- ionally with turpentine and see how clean it will look, but be careful to have no fire in the stove when you do that, as turpentine is an explosive. If the range is carefully wiped with brown paper after cook ing greasy food it can be kept bright much longer.

rainfall and often as n uch as
two to four inches in day or
two, need underdrainage. If the
water is taken off over the sur
face quickly enough too much of
it is lost and 1t carries too much
soil with it. On the o her hand,
if such an amount Of water is
to be taken up by the soil and
taken mp by the subsoi, the land
will be saturated for too long q
time and will consequently suffer
severely from too much water
in wet seasons, and being dead"
and run together" it will also
suffer more severely from lack
of moisture in dry seasons. We
consider tile drainage a necessity
for the best soil conditions and

THE DRAINAGE SHOULD SUPeRSe0E THE
OPEN DITCH

The open ditch is always OBJ
iectionable as an obstacle to the
most economical cultivation, by
limiting the size of the fields
and their regular form. When
open bitches must be made they
should, wherever possible, be
broad shallow bitches, which can
be easily crossed and the banks
of which may be easily kept
clean by the use of the mower.
Such bitches, having no ridges
of dirt along their sides to pre-
vent the flew of water into them
and where kept clean, have no
brush and briers to obstruct the
entrance of water, are much
more effective for surface drain
age of low lands than deep ditch
es with dirt piled UP along their
sides and these grown up in
brush and weeds to obstruct the
flow of water into them and to
scatter weed seeds broadcast to
increase the need for and the
cost of cultivation.
The open ditch, if a necessity,
as it often is, must be looked
upon as necessary evil. I'm
derdrainage, wherever PRACTICAL
lie, is always preferable. With
cheap lands, lack of capital and
lack of facilities for economically
putting them in, tile or other
under drains cannot be made to
satisfy all the Immediate needs
for drainage, but tile drainage
should be regarded as the ideal
toward which we should work.
We doubt if any land which re-
ceives as much as so inches of
rain water a year can ever be
properly handled without tile
drainage. Even the uplands
which receive such an annual
