teen to twenty-five pounds per day alone will save stock from dying. Prac- tically the only cost in using this feed is in it's preparation, and it is estimat- ed this cost amounts to only 50 cents per month.
 Yucca should be regarded as an emergency feed only, the specialists say. It makes a very slow growth and only two species-soapweed and bear grass may be expected to re- new themselves if cut off. The bear grass of the New Mexico Texas plain region will produce new crop in or years, while soapweed requires from 10 to 15 years.

WOODY STEMS YUCCA
 YIELD DROUGHT
 FEED FOR LIVESTOCK

(From Department of Agriculture)
 An emergency drought-time feed for southwestern stockmen which has previously been overlooked is the des- ert shrub locally known as soapweed. Its scientific. name is Yucca. While this plant is not high in nurtitive, val ue nor suitable for feed until it has been properly ground, the specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture have found that in sea- sons of drought when range grasses and other sources of feed fail, it can be used to save cattle and sheep from starving. By the addition of little cottonseed meal with ground Yucca a fairly well-balanced ration is made. By using this feed without waste in dry seasons only a fair crop will all ways be available. If it is used prop. erly and due regard given to corserv- ing the present supply, thousands of cattle may be saved during the drought season to add to the Nations meat supply. ..-.....
 There are score or more species of Yucca. Sotol has been utilized as stock feed for some years, but only recently have soapweed and bear grass, two other forms which grow abundantly, been utilized in this way. Both of the latter are we'll adapted for feed. but because the food material is found mainly in the tree-like trunk it is nec- essary that they be ground or chopped finely before stock can eat them.
 Machines for Cutting Yucca
 The machines used for cutting Yuc- ca have heavy cylinders carrying teeth or knives that rotate before chop ping block to which the plants are fed. One of the larger machines run by a 12 or IA horse power engine with a crew of three men will chop or shred about ? tons of soapweed an hour.
 If fed alone, this feed may be ex- pected to keep stock from starving; if fed with concentrates a properly balanced ration may be worked out. The customary practice among users of this feed is to give young stock 6 to 12 pounds per day with one-half to three-fourths of a pound of cottonseed cake or meal. Mature stock are given 20 to 40 pounds and 1 to 2 pounds of the cottonseed concentrate daily. Eff

ISSUES AN ORDER
 AGAINST PRODUCTION
 BIRTH OF NATION''

United States Marshal J. M. Tan ner yesterday issued an order to all deputies in the First Division to notify theatres that the production of "The Birth of Nation" would not be allowed. This is the direct result of a petition circulated by colored residents of Alaska and signed by the colored folks and a number of other citizens. Mayor Valentine also notified the local theatres against it's production and in explanation thereof said:
 "The object of the prohibition and the reason therefor, is that the pic ture tends to produce class hatred and is humiliating to many of our citizens It is our desire to elevate and not degrade any of our citizens and the colored people of our city should be held in highest regard for the self-sacrifice and devotion to the cause of the Nation"

WICK IS HOT AND COLD ON
 ROAD BUILDERS
Wickersham Has No Criti- cism at Seward, but Lots of DenunCiatiOn
 at Fairbanks.

Judge James Wickersham recently made a speech at Seward. where it is conceded by all who are famil- jar with the circumstances that he is very weak and will prob ably receive very light vote. Fol lowing his habit of making a speech that he thinks will get votes in the particular locality in which he is talking, it is said that he cut out the roasts at Seward, and talked about other matters.
 To illustrate, it is said that he told to the people of Seward that he did not want to criticiss the Al aska Engineering Commission. He said they did not need criticising, they needed appropriations!
 However, at Fairbanks, speaking on this subject, he said:
 Four years have gone by since the bill was signed by President Will son, and we have not got over the hill yet. Almost all of the thirty five million has been appropriated and we are not going to have enough to complete it. # * I judge a mil lion and a half dollars have been lost through incompetency and stu pidity, through politics and assanin- ity."
 There is shameful record of waste and mismanagement It is a scandal and shame to see the money wasted. * D
 Then followed a statement by in feration that Gov Riggs does not know which end of wheel barrow goes first
 His denunciation of Gov. Riggs was very severe.
 And there you have it: At Sew ard mo criticism" of the Engineer ing Commission; at Fairbanks very severe criticism; at Fairbanks, ap- proval of Judge Bunnells eight-hour decision; at Nome very severe criti- cism of it; at Nome the eight hour law was legal; at Fairbanks it was void and he couldn't see how the Legislature could pass it.
