WORLDS GREAT COPPER CORPORATION HAS BIG
 INTERESTS IN ALASKA

Having acquired various Pacific Coast properties at on approximate cost of $2OO.OOO.OOO, the Kennecott Copper Corporation. with distributing and purchasing offices in Seattle, pro- bably now Is the biggest enterprise of It's kind .n the world
 The aggregate purchases for 1915 of the units that form the company. practically all of which were made in Seattle. amounted to SS,25O,O00. It expended S15O.OOO in salaries in Seat tie and more than $1.OOOOO0 was paid to It's employees in Alaska. Since last May 1t has been shipping copper to the shelter at Tacoma at the rate of about S1,5OO.O00 a month.
 Because of the recent acquisition of the Braden copper mines in Chile. the amout of purchases made In Se- attle will be greatly increased. As soon as arrangements can be complet- ed. line of steamships will be run from Seattle to Antofagasta and other South American ports, carrying car goes for the Northwest and bringing back ore for the reduction works at the Tacoma shelter.

The Nome camp this winter Is fac ing a peculiar situation, according to nal advices received in Juneau. In all probability not since gold has been found has there been such an entire absense of wage working. The man that has to hunt a job is up against the hardest kind of a propo- sition for there is no such thing this winter. In addition there is no l.idi- hood of any extensive wage working propositions opening up unless the unlocked for happens. In conse- uuence of this situation everyone that can get o likely piece of ground is hunting up a lay. and the number oi small outfits which arc delving into the frozen tundras of this northern camp after the elusive is very great probably mere than in good many years.

MUNICIPAL wATER.sUPPLY
 SYSTEMS

Of the 204 cities of over 10000, 155 have municipally owned water-supply systems. the total estimated value of which is s1,O71,OOo,OOo. Municipal ownership in this field has been .n force In Philadelphia. which built its plant in 1901. and has operated 1t con- tlnuously since that time. for longer period than in any other city.
 The bulk of water supply for most cities. comes. of course, from lakes and streams. but there are 3,634 wells In operation in 47 cities. Of these ,S67 are in New York City alone.
 Five processes of qualification are employed, namely, sedimentation, CO., agulation, slow sand filtration, me chan,cal. and chemical sterilization. In the 155 cities of over 3O,O0O which have municipal owenership of water 5upply systems, there are in opera tion ST sedlmentation reservoirs, in which are treated s5S.6OO.OOO gallons T day; 54 coagulation plants, handling i92. 100000 gallons daily; 527 sand f.l- ters. which treat 5S7.700.O00 gallons day; and 427 mechanical filters with m output of 46S.2o0.O0O gallons daily. The amount Of w6ier chemically ster- ilized averages 1872. 9OOOOO gallons daily. A part of this water is also treated by other processes.
 The cost of treatment per 100000 gallons covers wide range, from 4 cents in Chicago to STAG in Columb- bus. Ohio. In the former city the chemical process is used entirely. while in the latter both mechanical Alteration and chemical filtration are employed In 15 cities the cost of treatment Is less than $1 for 100000 gallons. and .n 1s cities 1t is more than $500.
 Inn ,nese 155 cities with municipal ly owned water systems there are 96.9S6 miles Of w7ter mains. 330,9S6 fire hydrants, and 1.7S744S meters.

stamp licking, 1t is rational to estab-
 fish hygienic reasons for discourag- ing this practice, not to mention aes- thetic considerations.
 Under most favorable conditions it
 is not beyond the bounds of imaginat- ion to conceive of the conveyance of disease types, such as those causing diptheria and tuberculosis. The mere presence of microorganisms is not alarming. Living in the midst of rich bacterial flora. individuals are con stantly exposed to far more important sources of contagion than stamps On the other hand, stamp licking possess es no advantage save possibly the slight food value which may exist for one whose duties require him to place thousands of stamps upon. envelopes, Wherefore, stamp licking might well be relesated into retirement. The oc- casional stamp flicker need not be dis turbed. His chance of infection from this source is less than that resulting from breathing sixteen times minute

SILENCER FOR T.
 BOOSTERS CROW.

The rooster has at last been separ- ated from his hearty early morning crow, declare poultrymen who have muzzled him with the latest styled nightcap.
 Whether the mornings sleep is worth the trouble of catching and "nighting" all the roosters is another question. The cap is supposed to stay on several days, according to the Pop ular Science Monthly, or until it wears out.
 The cap is made of strong canvas and has suspender straps which fast en around the legs and hold the cap in place. These hang comfortably loose when the rooster's head is down, as when he is eating; but when he at tempts to throw his head back and his chest out in order to give vent to his pride in a crow that may be heard by every rival cock for miles around, he finds himself unreasonably restricted. The cap muzzle may be worn during the day, also, if necessary.

Stamp Licking is Found
 Harmless as Breathing.

The common habit of licking postage stamps has frequently given rise to question as to the danger of infection from such a procedure. There is great degree of reinsurance in the fact that with the widespread practice there. have been practically no reported in- stances of infection from this source. Drs. Kelly and McMaster of London, report some laboratory studies on the normal germ inhabitants of postage stamps with the view to determining their nature and the possibilities of the existence of disease organisms. While practically all of the stamps gave rise to bacterial cultures, disease organ isms were not found save possibly in two instances. Hence, asserts med. ical authority, it is safe to say that their results did not reveal the pres ence of any bacteria hazardous to hu- man beings.
 The work proves the stamp to be a carrier of organisms, but this state ment is equally true for practically everything which exists. The handling of stamps by several persons makes reasonable the possibility of the trans fer of organisms from one individual to another. Laying aside the question of potential bacterial infection due to
