the general development of the
central factory business, nearly

car. DR.. Geerlings in his article
in this issue on "Storing Sugars
During the Rainy Season in
Java" says that SO per cent pure
Java sugars are practically dry,
the other two per cent Of non
sugars not containing sufficient
moisture to develop injurious mi
crobic life. Such sugar as he in
dicates in his article. kept in the
well ventilated warehouses, will
even survive the moist weather of
the tropics without much deterio-
ration.
The function of sugar pure and
simple. is it's sweetening power,
and not it's delicate aroma so
highly priced by many persons.
A peculiar evidence of this is
shown in the distillation of alec
hol from molasses. Pure alcohol
has been frequently called cologne
spirits. This has been done be-
cause the alcohol used in the man
ufacture of perfumes should be
without odor, so that it can take
in to itself whatever odor the
manufacturers of perfumes may
wish. 1t has been quite difficult
to get odorless alcohol from mo-
lasses, as the molasses flavor or
odor seems to remain in the alec
hol almost indefinitely. At the
same time pure alcohol is now
made from molasses, and as to the
successful distillation of odorless
alcohol being quite a problem, it

CHAIRMAN MAKES REPORT QNW0Rk
 ALASKAN RO 4 J
Special to the Daily Times)


 ANCHORAGE, Aug 14.-After hay ing made a trip of inspection extend ing over the Fairbanks, Seward and Anchorage divisions Of the govern ment railroad, William c. Edes, chairman of the Alaskan engineering commission. which has charge of the building ot the road. declares the t4sk Of construction is progressing satisfactorily. In every division there is q scarcity of laborers, he says, but despite this fact the building of the line is going forward almost in con formity with the plans outlined last spring
 "In the Fairbanks dyision," states Mr Edes, rails will be laid and train swill be operated between Ne mana and the coal fields, fifty miles distant from Nenana
 Tn the Seward division, as well as in the southern part of the Anchor age division, all grading work will be finished soon, and the gap of about seventeen miles between the ends of steel on the Seward-Anchorage line will be closed and ready for train op- eratiOn in month or so. The track laying machine is busy putting down rails on the Seward-Anchorage line.
 In the Anchorage division grading is practically completed between Montana, which is the present end of steel north of Anchorage, and Tal- keetna. Montana is about ninety-five miles north of Anchorage, and Tal- keetna is about twenty.two miles north of Montana. The work of lay ing track between Montana and Tal- keetna will begin in the immediate future. Grading operations are pro aressinc fayorahly between Talkeetna and Susi'na, which is thirtyf four miles north of Talkeetna."
 Mr. Edcs spent last winter. last spring and part of the summer in Washington city on business in con noction with the government railroad.
 "Whilc the government railroad en- tCrprisc, in common with other enter prises not directly associated with the carrying on of the war. necessar- fly suffers from n shortage of labor and material, there is no reIson at all for discouragement," he Hiys. IA very friendly interest in the work is cvinced by congress, and there is every reason to believe that with the restoration of peace and normal con ditions the completion and operation of the entire system will be effected without trouble or delay"
