MUCH INSURANCE
 IS TAKEN OUT
 BY THE SAMMIES

WASHINGTON, May "A. - More than $16,000, 900, ,000 insurance on the lives of more than 1,S00,000 soldiers and sailors already has been written by the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. That is said to be more insurance, all written since the mid dle of last October, than is today on the books of the twenty largest life insurance companies in the world. All kinds of problems have been met with in achieving this gi- gantic task, according to informa- tion furnished to Congress by Thom- as E. Love, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in charge of the bu- raau, and other officials.
 The war risk law provided for payment of family allowances and allotments and for administration of a compensation insurance law ap- pl.cable to 2,000,000 risks and for tie writing of this insurance on the lives of a possible 2.000, ,G00 sol diers and sailors. The applications foi allowances and ai.>tments of the sc,diers' or sailors pad had to be obtained from the ends of the earth to which those in war service have been scattered From December 20 until the beginning of this month the bureau mailed out 2,30O,0O0 in dividual checks to families of de- pendent, in the United Sattes, ap- proximately $60,000,000 has been paid out in allowances and allot- ments; and in addition many thou sand claims for compensation have been made, some paid and others disallowed.

BLACK MINT MIGHT BE RAISED IN THE
 NORTHLAND ALSO

WASHINGTON, May 24. - The feasibility of beginning the culture of black mint in this country. for the production of menthol crystals and oil, is the subject of a special report by Vice Consul F. R. Dick over, of Kobe, Japan, as the result of inquiries from the United States.
 Several attempts to import black mint plants have been frustrated by the long journey across the Pa cific, during which the plants died. Once an arrangement was made with steamer purser to care for the plants and they arrived in good condition, but were killed by dis infection in entering the country. The consulate now is attempting to obtain mint seeds, difficult task since the plant is cultivated almost entirely from slips.
 Two widely different climatic areas are devoted to the cultivation of mint in Japan corresponding to the northern Pacific Coast of the United States and to Virginia and North Carolina. About 92 per cent. of the Japanese mint is grown on the Kokkaido island, where the average. winter tempera- ture is 22 degrees and the summer temperature DO degrees, with rain fall of 33 inches. The remaining eight per cent of the Japanese crop is grown on Nippon, where the av- craze temperatures are 3S and 75 degrees and the rainfall 42.5 inches.
 The mint plant requires light, well drained soil. The roots are planted at the end of November The plant attains full growth dur ing the summer months and is cut in late July, during August and in early September, the third cutting yielding the greatest percentage of oil and menthol crystals.
 Steaming and pressing in barrels prepares the leaves for the factor ies, where the oil is extracted by a proces of freezing and pressing.

CROWD TURNED OUT

DOUGLAS, May 24.-A good corwd turned out last night to see the Red Cross films and hear the lectures by Mrs. P. J. Malone and Mrs. c. P. Morgan of Juneau, who were dele gates to the Red Cross Institute in Seattle.
 Mrs. Malone gave a highly inter esting and excellent account of the convention. She advised the local chapters to carefully follow instruc tions given out from headquarters and briefly outlined the future work of the Red Cross.
 Mrs. Morgan gave an intelligent and instructive explanation of the value and use of spagnum moss. which is used extensively instead of absorbent cotton. The moss is far superior to cotton in that it absorbs twenty times its weight in moisture as compared to cotton which absorbs eight times as much. Great inter est was manifested in this moss when

The next morning the four reported

with an easy Job. When 1t came our
turn the officer told us we were good
men and had passed very creditable
examination.

for me, and noted that the other man,
Atwell by name, was sticking his chest
out more than usual.
The officer continued: II think can

and left.
That wishing US the ''best Of luck"
sounded very ominous in our ears; IL
he had said II wish you both swift
and painless death" it would have been
more to the point.

we knew We were in for it good and

nearest French estaminet and had sew

they called beer. After drinking our
beer we left the estaminet and hailed
an empty ambulance.
After showing the driver our passes
we got in. The driver was going to the
part Of the line where we had to re-
port.
How the wounded ever survived q
ride in that ambulance was inexplica-
ble to me. 1t was worse than riding on

liceman stopped us and informed the
driver to be very careful when we got
out Non the open road, as it was very
dangerous. because the Germans lately
had acquired the habit of Smelling it.
The corporal asked the trooper If there.

informed that there was not. Upon
this he got very nervous and wanted to

not walk.
From his conversation we learned
that he had recently come from Eng

under fire, hence his nervousness.
We convinced him that there was not
much danger, and he appeared greatly
relieved.
