tilizing purposes, according to an a. nouncement of the United States Bur eau Of Fisheries.
 Several large fertilizer manufac- turing concerns are negotiating with the government for contracts to pur- chase and bring to this country the thousands of tons of bone, and the fisheries bureau expects soon to close one or more contracts.
 Several difficulties of traasporta !. tion must be overcome by the contrac- ting purchaser. The Islands afford landing facilities only for small boats. Vessels of 12 feet draught or over can not with safety anchor nearer than half a milefrom shore. No food or or fuel suplies are available at any point nearer than Unalaska, 250 miles distant.
 The fisheries bureau has advised prospective contractors that liquor must not be taken on the island, that traffic in fur-s and fox skins Is pr ohibited, and that non-interfereIce with seal rookeries would be insisted upon.
