the enactment of general eight hour law and fer or against the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors should not be ms, understood. In neither of these cases even should the vote favor the proposed enact ments, does it necessarily fellow that they will become part of the law of the terri tory. They are merely an expression of the wishes of the voters of Alaska.
 In the case of the eight hour law, no details of the proposed law have been worked out, and it will be left to the in- coming legislature to grapple with the prob lem should the voters express a desire for such an enactment.
 With reference to the vote for or against also. The territory of Alaska is barred by its enabling act from legislating on the subject of the liquor traffic. Should the vote of the people indicate that majority are in favor of prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating beverages within the territory, it would merely be an indi- cation to congress of the desires of the people in the matter. That body might or might not pass prohibitive legislation. The probability is, however, that the legisla- ton would be enacted. On the other hand, also, should the vote favor the continual tion of the licensed saloon, there is no as surance that the law will not be passed by congress in spite of the vote.
 There is another phase of the question which has not received much attention. Under the present law the judges of the district courts of the various divisions are empowered to issue liquor licenses upon the showing that a majority of the residents sanction such license Should the vote in dicate that a majority of the residents of the division are in favor of prohibition, the court might refuse to grant further liquor license, passing his action on the result of the vote, without awaiting the action of congress. Already in several communities in Southeastern Alaska special elections have been held at the instance of the dis trict judge, and where a majority has been shown to be opposed to the granting of licenses these have been withheld. Whether such action could or would be based upon the result of the forthcoming election has not been indicated.

The official ballots for the general cleo ton to be held on November : have been received by Deputy Clerk of the District Court Geraghty, together with the sample ballots provided fer by law. The ballots are in one respect different from the customary election tickets, in that there is no party designation following the names of the re- spec.ire candidates, so that the partisan who desr4s to vote his or her ticket "S,raieht" must acquant himself or herself with the politics of tAe various candidates before entering the voting booth.

Teachers of Agriculture

The demand for properly trained men
to teach agriculture in secondary schools
is greater than the supply, and, from
present indications, will continue to in.
crease for some time. Hitherto, com
paratively few men have studied agri-
culture with the deliberate intention
of teaching 1t as life work. In con-
sequence, while provision for agricul.
tural education has been greatly de-
veloped, the number of teachers is still
small.
This subject is discussed in the Agri
cultural Education Monthly, published
by the department of agriculture. It
points out that a good teacher of agri-
culture must, Of course, have all the
fundamental qualifications. He must
know his special subject and must also
be versed in the science Of education
and the art of teaching. Those already
qualified to teach general subjects in
secondary schools who wish to teach
agriculture should, if possible, take ut
least course extending over several
years in the state agricultural college.
Those who can not leave their positions
can with very little trouble or ex.
pense take courses during the summer
vacation or short courses during the
winter

WHAT A FARMER MAKES
AND HOW He MAKES It

"A farmer s net income is the diff,
ference between what he pays for what
he buys and what he gets for what he
sells. He can make money quite as
certainly by having less to buy as by
having more to sell-a fact which is
in danger of being overlooked"
The extension division of the Hawaii
experiment station so admonishes farm.
ers in a brief resume of a recent de.
partment of agriculture bulletin on
"safe farming"
The recommendations are that every
farmer should have a home garden.
paying special attention to a plot Of
Irish or sweet potatoes sufficient to
supply the family with food of this
character; that every former grow feed
for his cattle and livestock, paying es.
Pecial attention to the legumPs; that he
raise as much of the home meat supply
as possible, planning "to increase
gradually the number of cattle and
other livestock so as to have a sufficient
number to consume the waste products
Of the farm and make the waste lands
productive"
After all these things have been am.

The Color OF Butter

At the California experiment station
1t has been shown that the yellow col.
oring matter which popular opinion al
ways associates with the best country
and creamery butter, is actually an i'm
purity. The yellow color of the butter
when COWS are on grass pasture is de,
rived from yellow pigment (earotin) =,
elaborated in immature grasses. 1t has
no flavor or Odor and is not digestibIs.
CaTOtin is not food.
Many plants which are of little or no
forage value contain this pigment and
would color butter yellow if eaten by
COWS. Practically, the yellow color
adds nothing whatever to the table
value of butter, and is not an index Of
quality, as many imagine The best
buffers are those which do not contain
carotin, the scientists declare.
