A comparison between the food administrators list published at Portland and the official list pub lished at Juneau is very flattering to the Alaska administration, says the Alaska Daily Empire.
 In the Portland list eggs are placed at a maximum selling price of 55 cents. Juneau is 65 cents a dozen. Butter is placed at 60 cents while Juneau merchants are allowed 65 cents. Cheese price is identical at 35 cents at Portland and Juneau. Granulated sugar is placed at max mum price of cents at Portland, and Juneau merchants are allowed a maximum price of 10 cents.
 Taking the entire list from Port land and checking with the Juneau list with freight added. the only difference is on bulky commodities

for three weeks except turnips and beetS
 The German colonel in charge of the train, was so annoyed at the cries of the hungry crowd, that he gave orders to have the train moved forward at once to another part of the city.
 All passengers on the train had to submit to a rigid search by the Austrian authorities and no one was permitted to. carry a single scrap of paper. Madame Titelescu, and several other women passengers, were temporarily deprived of all their clothing, and minute exam ination made of their persons for the purpose of detecting any secret information they might be carrying from Rumania to France.

AUS1R|ANS BIG
 FROM TRAVELLERS
 ALONG RAILROAD

PARIS.-Hundreds of starving Austrians in the capital city of Vienna recently surrounded a train on which party of Rumanians was travelling to France and begged piteously for bread, according to the Rumanians who have now ar rived here.
 The party asking for food gath cred about the train in the Hitzing quarter of Vienna, where some of the most well-to-do people of Vienna live, said Captain R. Rosetti, of the Rumanian army. They told the Ru- manians that turnips, beets and po- tatoes constitute almost the only food of large part of the popula- tion of Austria.
 There were more than 300 men, women and children in the party that surrounded the train, said Cap tain Rossetti, and almost everyone expressed horror at the continuance of the war and bitterly reproached Germany for the desperate plight in which they found themselves.
 Their faces were pinched and pale and showed unmistakably that they had borne intense privations and suffering. Several among the number declared there must soon be a widespread revolution in Aus tria if steps were not taken to feed the population.
 Captain Rossetti offered one of those who sought help 10 crowns. The money was declined on the ground that no food could be bought with it. The Austrian who in peace times, was a prosperous storekeeper pleaded for bread for his children, whom he said had nothing to eat

STICK

"Laborers should stick to their jobs in Alaska. Aside from the shipbuilding centers in the States everything is quiet. Business is as good in Seward as it is in hundreds of towns right in the Pacific North west" This was the advice and information given by Harry Els worth, who returned to Seward re- gently, after a visit in the States for several weeks.
 "We visited Portland, Spokane, Seattle, and other places in the Northwest" said MT. Ellsworth, land as I say, it is quiet with the eX- ception of the shipbuilding centers. Thousands of men are Hooking to Tacoma. Portland and Seattle. Ev- cry morning thousands of men re- port for labor at the shipyards and possibly one or two dozen are drawn and then only for couple of days work, at the longest two weeks. At Spokane, laborers have gone to the coast and the farmers are calling for help in the fields. As l see it, nothing aside from war industries is booming. Living is also high, hotel rooms being scarce and apart men houses are filled"

ALLIED AV|AIORS
 REST IN LONDON
 AWAY FROM WAR

LONDON.-The American soldier on his first visit to London from some of the numerous camps around England, often asks why there seems to be so many aviators strolling around the city streets, apparently without care in the world. It is evident that many of them are vet eran flyers, for they wear ribbons and decorations which could have only been won by great valor on the field
 Most of these men, the American learns, are lon leave". London is great "rest camp" for aviators. After a long period of war flying in France, they flock back to Lon don to rest their nerves, until the medical officers pass them for re- turn to duty.
 Two to four weeks is the average period they spend in this city. They naturally look forward to these pe- riods of leave with great pleasure, but by the time their three or four weeks are up they are beginning to be anxious to get back into the at- mosphere of gasoline.
 Any day one can see dozens of them arriving at a certain London station. Their faces reflect pleas urable anticipation of their holiday q can have a rest now" they are saying to themselves. "No five o'clock calls in the morning. No roar of engines in my ears all day. No more lodging shell-bursts over Belgian swamps. I can forget the war"
 So they settle down for a day or so. For a week it is delightful. Then the queer indefinable longing of the air service, like the sailor longing for the sea, begins to grip them. They find themselves watch ing the weather as they used to dc in France. Good flying day." or Bad flying day." is their first thought when they look out of the window in the morning.
 Every air communique brings 8 curious pricking to their heart, as they read it at their breakfast table in the hotel. They read of some particular exploit and think, "Thar sounds like our squadron up to it; tricks again" ....
 They meet friends newly arrived on leave in London, and drag then off to some secluded spot where they can get the latest news of thu squadron, hear the latest aerodrom, stories, and become, for little tim, part of "the show" again. The drone of an engine over Lon don sounds like trumpet in thei ears. High above Trafalgar Squar, they see machine flashing gail! in the sunlight, and they long to b. in it.
 At last they can hide the trutl from themselves no more The, cultivate an air of robustness ant a straight poise, so that the medica officer will pass them for servic, again. They are eager to get back

blown down by the cyclone some
weeks ago have been rebuilt. In the
work of clearing away the wreckage
and re-erecting the buildings, the

davs Rev. Weed has been helping on
the Joe Harris place and the owner
reports one hundred per cent results.
Mr.. Carpenter says that all the
pressing work is practically out OF the
way except threshing. Some of the
farmers need help with this work, but
