Hawes, Canadian government veter- marian at Whiteh0rse, who left for his home this morning after spending several days here on busi- ness.
 Dr. Hawes, who is well known in Skagway, is one of the active mem- bers of the North Star Athletic as- sociation under the auspices of which the outdoors sports were held last Saturday, Empire day, in White horse.

Taking ths Poison Out of Salt.


 As far as the supply of salt goes there is enough available to last us forever. Michigan alone, according to the Popular Science Monthly, claims to be able to supply the whole world for 2,0OO years with all the salt 1t needs. But no matter how plentiful salt may be 1t has the disadvantage of being a poison, for no salt is wholly pure. Thus If the poison in salt can De eliminated vast additional sources will be available.
 Scientists have come to the front and have tackled the problem successfully. By adding a solution of just the right amount of sulphate of soda the barium or poison in the suit is changed to sul- phate, and with 1t Is removed the pink or brownish color due to iron salts. Thus is made available an unlimited supply of salt, which means more raw material for our chemical industries, because the barium bearing salt Is used for salting hides, for glazing pottery and for making ice.

MlIiukoR of Russia,

Professor Paul MIiukOff was widely known in Russia as historian before the uprising in 1905. During that rev olution he sprang into prominence as the founder of the Constitutional Dem ocratic party, which numbered in its ranks some of the nOblest and finest men in Russia. Before that time Pro lessor Miliukoff had lived in America, where he lectured at Harvard and at the University of Chicago. He studied American life and familiarized himself with American institutions and the American form of government. Dur ing the revolution of 1905 Count Witte, then premier of Russia, offered him a portfolio in the cabinet Professor Miliukoff declined 1t because Count Witte would not outline to him the new program of the government. Pro lessor Miliukof insisted upon a dei- mite policy of reconstruction and re form before he would accept the post.

AUTO BUILDING
IS FALLING OFF
Makers of Pleasure Cars Arc
Curtailing Operations to
Save Steel

The enormous volume of the gov
ernment's purchases of steel, those
now under final negotiation and
those expected in the near future,
tends TO put prices higher for the
manufacturing consumer. Sheets are
a conspicuous example, the govern
ments requirements turned out to
be much greater than early estim-
ates. The weeks advance here has
been about So. 90 per ton, but govern
ment orders are taken at 3 to 20
per cent below the recent market.
In summarizing the situation the
Iron Age of to-day says: There
is great interest in placing by the
government of 100000 shells for
field artillery on which awards are
looked for daily. About $4,000 tons
of steel will be required"
"The spectacular pledge made by
steel manufactures at their meeting
in New York last week to give the
government ship steel as fast as
called for, can be made good only
by plate and structural mills. Present
ship plate capacity is about 10000
tons a month, and 5000 a month
more will be ready early in 1918,
some of it earlier. To build 100000
tons of steel ships in eighteen
months would call for about 1,000,-
900 tons of plates and 100000 tons
of shapes. Fabricating mills under
the new construction plans. will help
iE speeding up shipyard operations,
but there is no prospect of a mon
opolizing of plate mill capacity by
shipbuilding."
"Of the long waited Russian car
orders it is significant that two have
been given out through Washington
for 5000 cars each to the Standard
and American Car & Foundry shops.
The rolled steel requirements are
$4,000 to $4,000 tons. An item in
exports for locomotive work is 40,
coo tons of tires.
Much has been made of shipyard
possibilities in connection with the
Steel corporations purchase of 4
siXty-acre site near Newark, \. j.,
but there is no official statement eX-
cept that the land has been pur-
chased"
The expected falling off in con-
sumption of steel for automobiles has
come. Makers of pleasure cars are
curtailing operations, and in some
cases have asked for the holding up
of shipments. So far as the mills
welcome, especially to makers of
sheets and bars. At the same time
government buying of motor trucks,
more than 10000 being under in
quiry, will make a heavy demand for
steel. one inquiry has appeared for
10000 tons Of base bands for rims.

freight engines for Russia. With the
actual closing of the contract, which,
it is understood on good authority, en-
tails merely the signing of the
papers, the amount of business on the
Baldwin books will reach SIS, 200, 900,
another record. Baldwin's business
for the whole of last year amounted
to a total of s59,000,000.
The contract for Russian locomo-
tives about to be signed here was one
half of an order for 500 locomotives,
the remaining $50 of which are to go
to the American Locomotive Com
pany. Russia's entire equipment
needs, inquiries for which are now in
this country, aggregate 1000 locomo-
tives and 10000 freight cars.
