COVERED SC0WS TO BRING FREIGHT TO
 PORTS IN ALASKA
Two Seattle Companies Have Unique Way to
 Serve Points off
 Regular Routes

Organization of covered scow freight service between Seattle and Southeastern Alaska points, off the regular routes. is contemplated by the Washington Tug & Barge Com pany. it was learned today from the officials of the two corporations. says the Times Of last Friday
 The joint plans of the two com panies are unique. Seattle has a barge service with the North, but the idea of using covered scows on long voyages is decidedly new in the shipping world
 As beginner the two companies now have the scow Cheasley No. enroute from Seattle to the cannery plant of the Swift Arthur Crosby Company on Hecata Island. South eastern Alaska. The scow is owned by the Washington Tug & Barge Company of the Independent Tow ing Company. She is taking north 10000 cases of empty salmon cans and consignment of general sup plies. On the return voyage she win bring 12OOO cases of canned sal mon. a full cargo, from the Hecata Island plant. The scow and tug got away for the north Monday night
 Before she loaded for the voyage the Chesley No. was housed over with structure extending the full length and width of the scow and having a height of ten feet The scow is 100 feet long and 30 feet wide. The house has cargo ca pacity of 600 tons. The two vessels left port with Capt. J. C. Brown field. president of the towing com. pany. in command of the Crosby. The scow looks like floating ware house. The walls and roof are wa terproofed.
 The officials of both corporations believe that there is a good open ing for a freight service 10 the var ious Southeastern Alaska points that are off the regular steamship run, They plan to establish a permanent service with fleet of scows housed over in the same manner as the Chesley No. g.

Russia's Natural Roads,

Russia is almost ii roadleSs land. It
is inconceivnble TO the foreign visitor
who has never left the beaten track Of
the railways in Russia haw great en-
pire can have subsisted so long and 50
successfully without even a pretense af
roads. The secret lies in the fact that
for five or six months in the year ma
ture herself provides roads over the
greater part of Russia-ndmirable,
smooth. glossy roadways over hard
worn snow.
The traffic is further cheapened over
these roads by the substitution of q
Sledge-runner for the wheel and axle.
This brings the cost of land carriage
as near the cheapneSs of water-bornH
freight as possible and ii is the princi-
pal reason why Russia in the twentieth
century is still Il roadless land.

HEAD HUNTERS GETTING BUSY
Natives Of Solomon Island Take Ad-
vantage of War to Gather
Tropics.

AT first sight there does not seem
to be Il very close connection between
the war in Europe and head hunting
in the Solomon islands. Nevertheless,
the one arises from the other.
Previous to the outbreak of the
war, according to Vancouver Worlds
sydney On. S. W. correspondent, Brit
iSh, and occasionally German war
ships patrolled the islands and en-
deavored to keep down cannibaism
among the natives. who are largely of
fnpuan or Mnlaysian stock. How
ever, the requirements for the trans
port of troops led to the recall of the
British warShipS-and the happy head
hunter has been free TO follow his own
devious courses.
In one raid made by mountain
tribe upon Il small village near the
coast no less than % hends were Sc
cured. No punishment followed be-
cause the whites were unable to or
CnniZe in time. As IL consequence
the raids are growing more dangerous,
and although as Vet. no Europeans
have been attacked. planters have con-
Stnntly TO keep on their guard.
