 REPORTS OF "
 ILLEGAL FISHING
(ketchikan Miner)

IL was not long after MT. Walker, of the Bureau of Fisheries with headquarters at Wrangell, learned of the illegal fishing at karta river as reported a short time ago by citizens who found a net stretched across the stream, that he made up his mind to act. MT. Walker had been to the west ward for SC, eral weeks, on his way back, while at Sitka. his attention was called to the article in the Progressive-Miner, referring 10 this matter, and he immediately hurried south, arriving here this morning. On his arrival he visited the Miners office, not with blood in his eye, but with compliments on his lips for the citizens who reported the matter, and expressed himself as thankful for the infor- nation. As he said, The depart ment has given us only two boats with which to visit the fishing banks, and naturally we cannot cover much, and as I go to the westward. appreciate the infor- nation Continuing he said. Il wish that everybody who comes across cases of illegal fishing would report as the department is pre- pared 10 act.'
 MT. Walker says that the de. partment while encouraging trout fishing since trout are the worst enemy to salmon, it does not per init anyone to fish when it affects salmon as it must by the stretch ing of nets across stream. When he was told that the Forest Super wiser, Mir. Weigle, had taken the matter up, he said that such was to be expected on the part of the supervisor the moment his atten- tion was called to it, as no man, he said, had the interests of Alas ka more at heart than the super. visor.
 Mir. Walker is travelling on the Murre, one of the new Alaska pa trol boats built for the Bureau of Fisheries for service in south eastern Alaska in command of Capt. Andrew K. Rastad. The Murre has a sister ship. the Aux let, under command of Capt Henry Dannenberg.

It does not seem right that we should spend money on selfish pleasure when others are giving their lives to defend the rights of humanity We are only beginning to awaken to the reality ot this world wide war, and to onr resDon- sibilty in connection with il. Shall the appeal of the Red Cross go unheeded? Shall We not rather do what we can to support this neces- sary work according to it's needs today and prepare to do more to- morrow? There is lamentable de- ficiency of hospital and other relief equipment in France and when the great American armies nov being prepared are sent to the front It would be nothing but criminal neglect that a single, lite be lost because of the ipefficiency ot the American Red Gross! The society could send all auailahIe supplies to Europe for instant use there and start all over again. And as Allies we must practically do this. Wounded soldiers in Fran ce today are being bandaged with straw and old news papers.

RED F CROSS NOTES

The emblem of the Red Cross is a we'll chosen one. The cross is the symbol of sacrifice and the color red is, expressive of love. The sign of this society, therefore indi. cates the essential motive of its work-Ioving sacrifice in the hour of need. The Red Cross is of a true Christian order, for it knows no distinction of race or creed, and it gives without stintuntil the last man in need of its help is dis charged from the hospital.

BANK OF ALASKA TO ENTER FIELD
 AT C0RDOVA

The Territorial banking board has granted the Bank ot Alaska a certificate for the opening of a bank at Cordova.
 Simultaneous with this report comes the announcement of an in. crease in the banks capital and also several changes.
 The capital stock of the bank has heretofore been s75.ooo, and the surplus $17.ooo, but now be- comes S85,o and $2o, 500, re spectiyely, making the combined capital and surplus. of the bank SIo5, 500 placing it among the strongest institutions of the north.
 Among the new stockholders are the names of many individuals we'll known in Alaska, and indi- cates a somewhat changed policy on the part of the bank which has heretofore been controlled almost entirely by eastern bankers. This will tend to further increase the influence ot the bank in its several locations in Alaska.
 As a matter of local interest we will state that the list of stock holders contains the names of two influential business men of Wran- gell, Hon. P. c. Mccormack, president of the St. Michael Trad ing Co.,, and Capt. John G. Grant, proprietor of the Wrangell Hotel.
 In addition to number of new stockholders Vice President J. T. Westerman at Anchorage, Vice President w. R. Hillery at Skag- way, and Vice President w. H. Warren at Wrangell have all in- creased their holdings in the bank.
 The plans for the new bank at CordOva have been under way for some time, and it had been gen. orally supposed that the bank contemplated entering this promis. ing field, but nothing definite was given out by the officials of the bank until the report came from Juneau that the Territorial bank ing board had given its formal sanction to this further expansion of the bank.
 Vice President Willard R. Hil- lery who has visited Wrangell several times during the past year will be in charge of the new bank. Mir. Hillery is now in Cordova getting ready for the formal open ing.
 Since the Bank of Alaska entered the Alaska field sixteen months ago marked progress has been made in its development. Starting with deposits of slightly over So,ooo, representing some 25 de- posters, the banks deposits are considerably over half million dollars, its resources approximately S65o, GOO, and its depositors now number over 175o.
 The above figures will be greatly increased by the opening of the new bank at Cordova.
 Although an integral part of one system, each branch has had assigned to it the full amount of capital required by the Territorial banking board for the establish ment of bank in such a location. Each branch is therefore equipped to serve its customers as fully as any independent bark, but with the added strength and resources of the entire institution to draw on. Furthermore each is responsible to the Territorial banking board, is examined and supervised in- dependently and renders it's state men, direct to the Board. The Bank of Alaska is therefore, be- cause of it's double supervision and safeguards, peculiarly An Institu- tion of Strength and Character.
 The exports from Alaska tor the month of June exceeded three

DEATH OF ARTHUR II. BRISTOL
We'll Known Commission Mer-
chant and Formerly q Village
Trustee

Arthur Hiram Bristol, known here
for years as commission merchant for
dairy products, died last Saturday
morning in the State Hospital at Water
bury, where he had gone less than two
weeks before because of general

Kimball and besides his wife he leaves
four children, two sons and two daugh-
ters Paul, George, Isabelle and Frances.
Five brothers also survive him, Willard.
Edwin, Ernest Carlton, and Wallace,
all Of Vergennes, and a sister, Mrs.
Sidney NJ. Harris of Panton.
During all of his mature years Mr..
Bristol had been in business in Middle
bury, and in the days Of the commission
business was prosperous dealer in
butter and eggs, but trade conditions
and his i'll health had in recent years
affected his bushes, leading to his
breakdown He was a member of the
Congregational Church, and at the time
of his death was vice-president of the
Middlebury Electric Company. He was
also at one time member of the board
of village trustees.
The body was brought from Water
bury and the funeral was held at the
Bristol home on Court street on Mon
day afternoon, the Rev. Henry c. New
ell of the Congregational Church otiic-
iating. There was large attendance
and many floral tributes. The bearers

When to Hoe Beans

The young gardner should be warned
not to hoe or cultivate or even walk
among the beans while they are wet or
even in the early morning when they are
covered with dew. This is to prevent the
spreadof disease. The black spot on
bean leaves and pods known as blight by
some and anthracnose by others 1.-THE
latter is correct) is greatly increased by
working among the plants when they
are wet. The same is true of celery
for this crop should never be disturbed
when wet or disease is quite likely to
do serious damage.

From time to time especially In very
hot weather, examine Jars and cans,
making certain that there are no leaks,
swelllngs or other signs Of fermenta

There will be no spoilage II the direc-
lions are followed implicitly and the
containers are sealed up tight.
Fruits which are put up with heavy
