Snanish aiIkworms.

Four hundred years ago the silks of Seville, then the most famous in the world. were exported to all, countries, for Spain was the first nation of west ern Europe to take up silk culture. The climate of Spain is excellent for this industry, and fine silkworms, such IS were employed when silk cyltiva- tion was at it's height, are available in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, near Granada. This worm has life of fifty days, during the first thirty of which it grows to about 9,5O0 times its original weight. Ninety-six thou sand small eggs of the silkworm weigh one ounce.

TUNGSTEN: SENT
 BY PARCEL POST
TON ARRIVES AT CORDOVA P. o.
First Shipment of Valuable Metal From Property of Johnson & Ewer at Fairbanks Arrives at Coast on Way to States.

The first shipment of tungsten from Fairbanks arrived at the Cor dova postofflce yesterday. It was a ton of sacked concentrates, and came as parcel post, and other shipments will follow, says the Cordova Times.
 The demand for tungsten is grow ing in the states every day. and the manufacturers of steel and the users of the metal are having more diff culty in obtaining it. The price for tungsten advanced 25 per cent only a short time ago, and the indications are that it will still go higher if the war continues, and the demand for munitions keeps up.
 From the hes.-. of Gilmore creek on Tungsten h., Johnson and Ewers have been taking out ore all winter. They have traced the ledge for over 50 feet, and have great deal more of it which will be got out for shipment by the river route.
 Other properties in the same vii cinity are said to have some likely looking tungsten prospects, and are in hopes that they will be in shape to ship some concentrates during the coming summer. On Ester Dome it is said that some of the prospectors there have some likely looking pros poets also.
 A number of chemical concerns in Pennsylvania and other parts of the country are anxious to get all of the tungsten they can, so that there will be no trouble in finding 3 market for the production once it is in shape for shipment.
 Should they send their concen- trates out by express the rate would be exorbitant. In fact it would cost several times as much to send it from Fairbanks to Chitina as it does from Fairbanks to Pennsylvania by parcel post. The through rate by par cells post is 12 cents per pound. or a little more than $240 per ton in small sacks.

BIG WASTE THAT IS
 CAUSED BY CANNERIES

The Seattle Times of recent is- sue with Washington date line, says:
 The government again calls atten- tion to the great waste which attends the salmon packing industry in the Pacific Northwest and urges the can ners to make full use of the materials at their disposal, and thus materially increase their profits.
 It is estimated by experts of the Department of Agriculture that in the Northwest there is an actual waste of at least $1, 75O, 900 a year, and all because the canners do not take ad- vantage of their opportunities. To the average canner, producing 50.0OO cases of canned salmon in a season, the loss is about s13,500 yearly. The general situation in the fertil- izer industry of the country, due to the war in Europe. emphasizes the waste of the salmon canneries. Fish scrap, it is pointed out, has long been used as a source of both nitrogen and bone phosphate, and on the Atlantic coast an industry of considerable pro- portions has developed in the produc- tion of fish scrap for fertilizer pur- poses.
 It is announced that 30 per cent of the material as it comes from the can ming factory is discarded as waste. This includes heads, fins,. tails, roe and ,viscers. This raw canning waste contains, says the experts, the follow ing percentages of fertilizer ingred- ients:
 Ammonia. ~.67; bone phosphate, 4.46; and in addition, about 10.42 per cent of fish oil.
