TO ELIMINATE EATS

DOUGLAS, Feb. 27-The Doug las Labor Union is nothing if not con sistent and to be consistent a time honored custom is about to be chang ed by that organization. Heretofore all social functions held or given by the union have been characterized and immortalized by the amount and quality of the refreshments served. This feature is to be eliminated for the present and so long as the food saving campaign continues. In the present series of card parties given for the benefit of the Red Cross all money collected at the door has been turned over to the Red Cross Fund, the union bearing the expense of the refreshments from it's treasury. But this is to be changed and no refresh ments will be served at the next card party which will be held in Labor Union Hall next Monday night. However, additional prizes, six in all, will be awarded, two first to ladies, two first to gentlemen, and one con solation each to a lady and gentle man. The usual two-bits admission will be charged and the usual good crowd is assured.

LOOMS BACK HOME

DOUGLAS, Feb. 27.-Mr. and Mrs. Bert Loomis arrived yesterday on the steamer Alice from Suloia Bay where they have been for the past two months, the former having been con nected with the James sawmill and box factory at that place. MT. Loom is,t who is a sawyer is not certain where he will be employed during the coming season, but will be either at Juneau or Petersburg, having been offered steady work at both places. At the latter place the mill was in trouble some time ago but the gov ernment came to it's rescue and ad- vanced $50,000, taking portion of the coming seasons output as it's se- curity.
 While at Suloia Bay MT. Loomis says they made their home on scow which was tied up in the bay and that he kept their table supplied with mallard ducks which he shot from the windows of the kitchen. He says they could see deer on the beach almost every day within a few rods of their home. He says the young deer are showing the eff fects of the hard winter but that bucks of two or more years are in fine condition.

LONDON, Feb 25.-Germany has produced 560 different war models to commemorate various alleged vic tories during the war Copies of about half of them have been o5- tained by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and are now on exhibition there.

These were struck off in light silver and sold to the public for a small sum, bearing inscriptions recording such exploits as Zeppelin attacks on London, the bombardment of the British coast towns and battles on the Western front Many of the medals bear DOT traits of popular heroes or a day or two

FRENCH FACTORIES ARE KEEPING BUSY TURNING OUT MUNITIONS

NEW YORK, Feb. 25. - Andre Tardieu, French high commissioner to the United States, speaking in New York, said that France will be able before July 1 to manufacture enough artillery to supply 20 Amer
 ican divisions, or approximately 5000 troops, if the United States supplies the necessary raw mate
 rial He said there are in France today more American troops than the strength of the American army at the time the U nited States en- mately 212,000 officers and men. We have in line about 15,000 guns of every calibre, and every day more than 300,000 shells are turned out by our factories. We manu- facture for you several hundred guns a month We have during the past three years given to our allies 1,350,0 1000 rifles, 15,000 automatic rifles, 10000 machine guns, 300,- 100000 cartridges, 2500 guns and 4750 airplanes. Officers and sol diers mobilized Jan. l, 1918, not including the native troops from the colonies and the workmen in the factories, amount to 4,725,00 men, of whom nearly 3,000,00O are in the army zone. The extent of west ern front is 755 kilometers. Bel gians hold 25, English 165, French 565. We hold, therefore, three quarters of it. We have in front of us 80 German divisions. The Ger mans do not entrust to any one of their divisions a front larger than six kilometers; ours often hold nine each"

WOOD CELLULOSE IS PROVING SUBSTITUTE
 COTTON FOR POWDER

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. - The successful use for the first time in
 the United States of wood cellulose as a substitute for cotton in the manufacture of explosives, a scien-
 tific achievement that may have a farreaching result, was announced at the convention of the American Paper and Pulp Association in New York. The importance of this dis covery is indicated by the fact that had German scientists not made a similar discovery under stress of cir cumstances the Germans today prob ably would be without means of producing explosives in necessary quantities, since cotton imports have been shut off. The chemist making the discovery was w. F. Byron Baker of Lock Haven, Conn

BULB BUSINESS HAS
 BEEN SERIOUSLY HIT
 BY PRESENT STRIFE

LEYDEN, Netherlands, Feb. 25.- No longer will the famous road to Haarlem present an uninterrupted vista of Towering bulbs, when spring comes. The bulb business, which has been seriously hit by the war, offers such poor prospects that many growers have partly abandoned bulb planting and have taken to vegeta- ble raising instead. Extensive veg etable drying sheds have arisen along the canals where in previous years banks of mult-colored tulips and hy- ascinths delighted the eye. So far, the facilities for drying vegetables, especially cabbages and carrots. are limited to about 600 tons a week.

DOUGLAS, Feb. 27.-Mr. and Mrs. M. s. Hudson left today in launch for Nevada Creek to spend few days at their mining property. The former says that, while he and two other men will have work there to keep them busy many months or more this spring, he does not con template doing any real mining work under conditions as they exist as present-scarcity of competent labor and the high cost of material How ever he will endeavor to keep things in such shape that active operations may be started at any time when conditions are more favorable which he estimates will be very shortly af- ter the close of the war.

FEW GERMANS ARE
 UTILIZED FOR FARM
 WORK IN ENGLAND

LONDON, Feb. 25.-Only one in every twenty of the able-bodied Ger man prisoners in this country have been utilized for work on farms, according to the Agricultural Ga Zette.
 The Journal says there must be well over 100000 able-bodied prison CTS in the kingdom and such a num- Der could do wonders in the way of food production if organized. With in the last two or three weeks the number actually working on the farms was less than 5000, the paper asserts.
