WHITEHORSE WANTS
 FISH FROM JUNEAU

Juneau as a fish distributing cen ter is growing rapidly and the bus mess established here several years ago of distributing fresh fish to mining camps and surrounding towns is now reaching substantial size. The latest addition to the business is a reqeust from White horse for a weekly shipment oi fresh fish from Juneau to that place during the winter months.
 The Juneau Cold Storage Com pany for a number of years has been supplying all steamers land ing here with fresh fish and has been making regular shipments of fish to Chichagoff, Jualin, and oth- CT surrounding mining camps. Re gently this concern has added pub lie market to their facilities and is supplying fish in small quantities to the local consumers at reasonable prices.
 The establishment of this mar ket has done great deal to assist the people of Juneau, not only tc reduce the cost of living. but also to observe meatless days by substi- tuting fish.

The steamer Admiral Wainwright on Nov. 3rd took a shipment of 800 tons of copper ore from the Sulzer mine to the Tacoma shelter and ac- cording to Agent S Howard Ewing of the Pacific Steamship Company 1900 tons more will leave the mine within the next few days.
 The Sulzer mine has been one of the active producers of the South eastern Alaska section for the past several years and during the past months of this year has been mak- ing regular shipments of ore south bound. A report of the shipments of ore from the mine during the year compiled from official figures shows that the following tonnage has been IL T

MAKE READY FOR SECOND
 INCREMENT
Nine Million Registrants Will Submit to Fed
 eral QueStiOnaire.

WASHINGTON, Nov 23.-Uncle Sam has began the most gigantic inventory of man power ever at tempted
 Preparations for the second draft were started recently when copies of the questionnaire for every one of the 9,000,000 men registered for military service were sent to the local exemption boards.
 This questionnaire must be filled out by every registered man between the ages of 21 and 31 It will place in the hands of the government the life history of every registered man and will give a complete census of the men of military age in eighty seven trades, industries and profes- sions. The questionnaire will clas sify all registered men for service
 Classifications of registered men in the order of their liability for military service will be the first ac complishment of the questionnaire Men will be classified in five divis ions, the first division to be called the first and the fifth division last Each registrant will be allowed to fix his own class and must support his classification by affidavits. These submitted for the approval and al lowance of the local exemption boards and the district boards.
 Series of Questions
 Following the classification comes series of general questions There then follow eleven other series oi questions which fit particular cases ranging from the men who claims physical disability to questions asked of men seeking exemptions because they are divinity students.
 The general questions establish 8 most intimate knowledge of the per sonal characteristics of the regis trant. He must state every occu patton at which he has worked dur ing the past ten years giving no! only the name of the occupation but the number of hours worked each week and a statement of his education.
 In these questions, the registrant is given the privilege of stating his preference of service and may state whether he is willing to attend a night school fitting him for service prior to being called into camp.
 To aid the registrants in filling out these questionnaires and deter mining their classification legal and advisory boards have been provided for each local exemption district Disinterested lawyers have been ta ken into service to aid in the gen cral administration of the law.
 All Exemptions Revoked
 All exemptions made prior to this time are revoked. Every man not in the military service must fill out questionnaire, and the merits oi his case will be decided upon again
 Any person failing to fill out g question is automatically placed ir class 1, and is liable for immediate duty
 There then follows list of eighty seven trades and professions, and the registrant is given space to in dicate which he has worked in and for how long a period.

I'm very glad to help with this fund" writes Miss Geneva Sheets of Thane, who sends her check for s200, a contribution to the Light a Pipe in France" Tobacco fund.
 Miss Sheets has a brother who is m officer in the army, and who will soon be one of the men in the trenches. He is now at Camp Cody, Deming, New Mexico. Therefore, she has a conception of the desire of the boys for smokes. Her brother is also a newspaper man, and she understands the spirit in which the newspapers and magazines of Ameri- ga have undertaken to raise money o buy tobacco for the boys in the trenches.
 The other day The Empire re ceived from the Duncan House of Treadwell a $10 contribution to the obacco fund-the largest contribu- lion to be received in sometime from )ne source. However, the esfund con .inues to grow, and the per capita IIOHl II ftldS- "a are well up toward the top.

Bolley Gives Some Pointers
On How to Produce Greatest
Yield of Wheat on Each Acre

The surest> way to get the big wheat
crop is to increase the yield per acre.
How can this be done?
l. Grade the best wheat YOU have to
the plumpest, heaviest form of grains.
2. If you have plenty of plowed land
put the wheat on the fields which did
not have wheat on last year. Use the
newest. best land for the wheat. Put
your corn, potatoes. beans. peas, fax,
oats. or other crops on the old wheat
lands.
8. Prepare the ground for the seed
carefully. Use fall plowed lands, sum-
mer fallowed lands or any lands which
you had cultivated crops on last year.
Disc, harrow and pack thoroughly be-
fore seeding. The packer cannot be
run well on any lands which are i'm
properly drained or wet, but should
be used after the disc on all fields
which are sufficiently dry to be prop
erly seeded.
4. Treat all seed with formaldehyde
before sowing. Use one full pint of the
liquid to each 40 gallons Of water. Wet
the grain in any manner most con-
venient. Use solution enough to wet
each grain evenly. Shovel and rake the
grain over until nearly dry. Then sow
at once.
5. Sow the wheat as early as pos

An EfectiDe LdxdtiDe
For Growing Children
Dr. CdtdOeRs Syrup Pepsin
Highly Recommended as
a FoniIp Remedu

In children the slightest irregulartty
of the bowels has tendency to dis
turn the entire digestive system. and
unless promptly remedied invites seri-
GUS illness. The experienced mother
knows that by training her children
to regularity in this respect, ana when
occasion arises administering mild
laxative, she will have little need. for
the doctors services.
Mrs. Leo Weigand, 1851 Central Ave-,
n. s., Pittsburgh, Pa, whose two boys,
Frank and Joseph, are shown in the IL
lustration, writes that she has found
DR.. CalGwell's Syrup Pepsin a most
effective laxative, not only for rne
children but also for herself, and thar
she will always keep 1t in the house TO
use when needed. DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is a combination Of simple
laxative herbs with pepsin that acts
easily and naturally, without gripping
or other pain or discomfort 1t is pleas
ant to the taste SO that children like
1t, and Is equally effective on the
strongest constitution.

Corn one year followed by wheat
three years has given GA bushels of
wheat while four years of continuous
wheat gave but SEA bushels of wheat.
These are the results of trials extend
ing over Is years at the North Dakota
Experiment station. This would indi-
cate that If corn were grown on one
fourth of the area of grain farms and
rotated with the grain crops that more
grain would be produced and whatever
corn was raised would be just that
much extra. -
Corn is doing better in North Dakota
than many realize. In 1916, corn IN
North Dakota averaged 261z bushels
per acre. while the average for the
United States was but "a bushels
and the acreage was over half a mil
lion acres and that in spite Of the set
back that corn received in 1915.
Corn is of great economic importance.
As mentioned above it improves the
land for the crop that follows, and it
is the crop most relished by stock. Corn
is as a rule fed on the farm, which
means that less fertility is sold than
in the case Of grain. 1t also results IN
manure being produced to go back to
the land.
Wheat has been the great pioneer
crop but its continuous growth usual
Iy leads to failure. Corn has been the
crop that has been. brought in to put
farming on its feet. The corn should be
introduced before the continuous grain
growing has been kept up too long.
The North Dakota farmer is doing
this. In some sections of Minnesota
the continuous grain growing was kept
IN SO long that whole communities
were bankrupt. Corn and cows were
then introduced. Today these very Sec
lions are among the most prosperous
| in the union.
The corn crop can be made to give
better returns per acre than the grain

6. If your land is low. heavy, and
liable to be wet. pillow burrows through
all the low places so that the surface
water which falls can at once run on
into the road bitches.
Z. Set the drill so it will not seed
too thickIy. Try it after it is set by
running over a smooth piece of bare
hard ground. Count the grains which
fall behind the shoes or discs. There
should be about SO to 40 good grains
per yard. that is, about one grain per
inch of drill row.
s. If the top soil is dry enough, run
a packer over it behind the drill be-
fore the wheat comes up. 49,.
8. AS soon as the grain is up to
about the second or third leaf run a
light harrow over it.
10. If you must use old wheat lands
to SOW your wheat on, no matter how
we'll that land is plowed, disc, harrow
and pack thoroughly. Firm this old
land down so thoroughly that it is no
longer mellow and mealy. Do this
so we'll that you can hardly make a
mark in it with your heel. When the
wheat is up harrow il at least once.
Do it twice if the weather tends to be
dry. ..- II. Il. Bolley,

Constipation and Indigestion.

TORPEDO OR PRIZE COURT.


That Is the Difference Between German
and British BIOckades.
New York Evening Post: When Sen
ator Williams invited Senator LaFol-
Iette's attention to the difference be-
tween a prize court and a torpedo. he
gave the human answer to all the Ia
bored arguments about British viola
ton of international law counterbal-
ancing German violation of interna-
tional law. 1t is a reply which renders
all the subtle discussions of priority of
date as between British blockade and
German blockade. We are now at war
with Germany because the German
leaders have been unable or unwilling
to perceive that the American mind is
not cast in the mould of the rigid Ger
man logic which holds that once there
is necessity, there is no difference be-
tween the necessity which ransacks
American mails and the necessity
which destroys innocent American
lives. And the leaders of Germany,
too. in their heart of hearts, are today
wondering whether the distinction is
not valid. They must be calculating
the amount of damage the U-boats
have done to England and the damage
they have done to Germany. They must
be wondering where America would be
standing today if not for the long rec
ord from the Lusitania to the Aztec.

THE LIONS CUB.
BY Maurice Thompson.

The whelp that nipped its mothers
lug. in turning from her breast,
And smacked its lusty lips and built
it's own lair in the west,
Has stretched its limbs and looked
about and roared, across the sea:
"Oh, mother. ! did bite thee hard, but
still thou lowest mel"
She lifts her head and listens, as
waking from dream,
Her great jaw set, her claws out
spread, her lion eyes agleam;
The, voice As deep as thunder on the
far horizon rim,
And UP the mother spoke and said:
st can be none but him!"
Cried England to America: MY
ancient love abides,
And the old Trafalgar courage still
upon the ocean rides"
America to England spake THE God
OF Liberty
Goes with us marching up the land
and sailing down the sea"
And the twain are joined for hunting,
Jet all the packs beware,
The tigers kith, the panther's kin,
the race hordes Of the bear.
They two step forth together, Gods
All pathways lead to freedom, each
foot-step broadens power.
The world is still in dull amaze, agape
and dazed to hear;
There is a rustling of the thrones,
uneasy far and near,
King leaning unto king, and on OPP
pression's hateful lips
A pallor as the wind brings in the
booming of the ships.
~
And who shall COVER who recoil, or
choose the craven's tack,
And strain the law (by heroes nade)
to hold his country back?
All, who? Let children lisp his shame
and women cry him down
What time our glorious banner waves
DER stormed tower and town.
The star is up the star OF splendor,
never to set or wane:
The flag leads on, the flag of glory,
never to turn again; .
And when 1t goes we cheer and fol-
low, no man of us will fall
We all are where our armies camp
and wheFs ppf neSies sail
World -conquering mother. hard we bit
in parting from thy breast;
Yet still we smack our lusty lips and
love thy milk the best;
For the blood our mother gave us Is
the true imperial strain:
She bore one cub, one only, but IL
wears the lions name!
