Nenana, Alaska, Feb, ;, 1917.

Governor Strong, in his annual report to the secretary of the in- terior. again urges that steps be taken to provide for the care of Alaska's insane within the terri tory. There are numerous hot springs, the governor points out. on the coast of Alaska and in the Intenor where a hospital for the insane might be located. and main tained at a cost not to exceed the present cost of caring for those un- fortunateS under the unpopular contract system. The additional argument is advanced that such an institution. were one established in Alaska. would be visited more frequently by the relatives and friends of the inmates than is pos sible under the present arrange ment: and that the cost of trans porting insane patients would be very materially reduced.
 There is one phase of the ques- ton. however. that the governor does not discuss. It is assumed. apparently. that the percentage of cures in an Alaskan institution would compare favorably with that of any other; that an unbalanced sourdoush, who had spent the best part of his life in the North. would have as much chance to recover in a local asylum as he would have in an Outside institution. Perhaps he would: but we are inclined to the belief that the close oonfine- ment necessitated by the severity of our long Northern winters would be less conducive to recovery than the change of climate and surround inss made possible under the pres ent arrangement
 Alaskans will admire the mo- tives which prompt the governor to advocate territorial control of territorial institutions. but we ques- ton if there are many in the North who would choose to be confined in an Alaskan asylum in prefer enoe to one so pleasantly situated as is the Morninsside or any ofthe state institutions on the Pacific coast. where the inmates have the opportunity to benefit from an all year open air treatment. The time will come when Alaskans will be called upon to care for their insane. but we do not believe that the ter titory Is prepared at present to of

The Nenana news., 1917-02-03

Whatever may come of the pres constrained relations with Germany 1t must be said of President Wilson that he has gone the limit in his endeavorstokeep tue United States out of war. If it is found impos- sible now to continue on friendly terms with the Central powers be- cause of the threat to limit the movements of our ships of com merce on the high seas. the presi- dent will take such steps as may be deemed necessary by him to safeguard the interests of a neutral nation. If diplomatic relations are broken. Americans can restassured that there was no other honorable way out of the difficulty.
 Let us hope. however. that the situation is not as grave as reports have pictured it: let us hope that diplomacy can be made to serve us in this crisis as 1t has in all others since the commencement of the war. But if the break must come. let US be prepared to stand squarely behind the man we have chosen to pilot our ship of state.
 The Wiokersham bone dry" bill which has been passed by the senate and favorably reported by the house territorial committee. is intended to become operative on the first of next year. and is one of the most drastic measures of that nature ever introduced in congress. It prohibits the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors. and makes 1t a misdemeanor to trans port or to have intoxicants in ones possession, except by special permission of the court. The term intoxicating liquor as used in the bill. includes whiskey. rum. gin. ale, porter. beer. cordials. hard or fermented cider. alcoholic bitters. ethyl. alcohol. all malt li- quors and all other alcoholic liquors.
 An amusing feature of the run which occurred this week on num- erous Seattle banks is he fact that many of those who withdrew their funds immediately deposited the money in Postal savings banks. thereby assisting the federal re- serve bank. which receives all Postal receipts. to come to the aid of the banks which timid deposit ors had crippled.

Kidney & Co.
(BY DIR. ]. II. wATsoN)

The kidneys and the skin work in
harmony. They're companions, the
skin being the second partner. II we
are anxious to keep well and preserve
the vitality of the kidneys and. also,
free the blood from noxious elements,
we must pay special attention to a
good action of the skin and to see that
the kidneys are flushed so as to elimi-
nate the poisons from the blood.
Sweating, by hard work or in bath,
at least once a week, helps to keep the
skin and kidneys in good condition.
Flush the kidneys by drinking plenty
of pure water with meals and between
meals. Occasionally obtain at the drug
store Anuric, double strength, which
will help flush the kidneys and the in
testines. You will find that Anuric Is
many times more active than lithia
and that 1t dissolves uric acid as hot
water does sugar.

course where milk
Is abundant there Is no excuse for the
economy, but with milk ten and even
fifteen cents a quart the expense may
be saved.
The tedious process of Dreaming the
butter and sugar is not necessary for
an everyday cake; the fat may be
warmed not melted, then 1t mixes
quickly; the eggs beaten and added
first, the whites folded in at the last.
Another and still shorter cut is per-
formed In the following manner-beat
the eggs with the sugar, add flour and
other ingredients used and stir In the
melted butter or fat at the last, then
give the cake good beating and see
what tasty fine-grained cake you
have with little time expended.
When using any fat instead of butter;
salt must be added to bring out the
flavor. Pastry -four Is smoother in
texture than bread -four and cakes and
pastry made from 1t are fine-grained
and better texture. It does not need
the many siftings which bread flour
seems to require.
Fats skinned from the tops of soups
Is vegetables have not been cooked. In
1T, dripplngs from roasts and chicken
fat are all good fats to use In cake
making. When the fat is melted and
added last, the cake should not be
stirred much until after the fat Is
added, then give 1t good beating, by
stirring before, 1t seems to tougher the
texture.

Chilean Nitrate to Be
Sold Farmers at Cost

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-Deliv-
cries OF upwardst of one hundred
thousand tons of Chilean nitrate pur-
chased thru the war industries board
under the food control act for sale to
American farmers at cost, probably
will begin in January. Secretary
Houston said today that the board
arranged some time ago for the pur-
chase, but until recently it had not
been able to obtain transportation ia
cilities. Ships now have been secured
for the delivery at American ports
during January of $4,000 tons and as
surances have been given that ton
mage to bring the remainder soon will
be available. While the price has not
been definitely set, the secretary said.
1t probably will be approximately SIS

sales will be for cash and farmers
will have to pay rail freight charges.
the state fertilizer tax fee and any
other local charges.
The department of agriculture now
is arranging for the distribution of
the nitrate, which will be sold only
to farmers for their own use during
the coming season and generally not
in excess of the amounts used by them
heretofore.
