ment providing for establishment by
the Secretary of Agriculture of uniform
bookkeeping methods for meat packers

official scrutiny. The amendment was
designed to meet recommendations of
Francis J. Heney. attorney for the Fed
eral Trade Commission in its meat in
vestigation.
An appropriation of $4,000 for the
congressional free seed distribution.
which had been eliminated by the Sem
ate agriculture committee, was re-
stored by the Senate.
Appropriate of about a million
dollars were added to the bill in the
Senate. including $25o.ooo to be Of
fered as prizes by the Secretary of
Agriculture to stimulate agricultural
production and s250.000 for extension
of work in dehydrating vegetables and
fruits.

 height, is red in color, and does not ripen until late in. the fall. This berry may be found on the coast and in the Interior. It usually grows on fairly well-drained low land, river and creek beds.
 What is often called the loganberry grows on single stem in low, wet places. The leaf and appearance are similar to a strawberry. The color is red, and in certain places yellow. There is probably no berry that makes up into more delicious jams and jel. lies than this. That they usually sell for twice the price of blueberries gives some idea of their desirability. The berries are not usually found in large quantities, but some favorable spots will produce several gallons in days picking.
 Red raspberries are to be found both on the coast and in the Interior. They grow in open places exposed to the sun. Great patches of them are often found on old burned places. Where a good patch occurs one may gather ten or fifteen gallons in day.
 The sarvice berry, or June berry, as it Is called in the Eastern states, is to be found up the Taku river. This berry is blue black when ripe, and grows in large clusters on bushes from five to ten feet and more in height. There is probably no other berry that will satisfy hunger as we'll as the sarvice berry. It is sweet and filing" as one old-timer de- scribed 1t.
 Most of the berries growing on bushes are not ripe until August and later in the season

 Strawberries are first in order of appearance, and probably second to none in importance. They do not grow in abundance in every locality, but there are few places where they grow in such quantities that one may pick water bucket full in an hour.
 The localities in which they may be found in greatest quantity are from Icy strait, on the mainland, westward to YaEutat bay. Nearly every river valley in that section has certain spots where strawberries may be gath cred in large quantities. Strawberry point is the best known place around Cordova to secure them
 Blueberries or huckleberries are probably the next most valuable of all the berries, and are to be found in neraly, if not quite, all parts of Alaska. Not only on the coast, but in the Interior and to the Arctic ocean. There is scarcely any limit to the quantity of these berries that may be secured if one works dili- gently. It is not uncommon for one man or woman to pick twenty gallons in day.
 There are not many low bush cran- berries on the coast although in the Interior they secure them in quanti- ties nearly as great as the blueberry.
 Probably the greatest difference be- tween the wild low bush cranberry and the eastern berry of the same ldHlC 10 IudL IuOoS Ol AIdShd dIc much better and a wee bit smaller.
 There is berry very similar in taste to the cranberry that is called the high bush cranberry. It contains possibly even more acid than the low bush berry. It grows in clusters on bushes from three to six feet in

The attempts of the Germans to
force the Flemish language on Brus-
sells and Antwerp are declared to
have completely failed and the gov
ernment has had to confess itself
beaten. The supporters of the Ger
man scheme among the Belgian popu-
lation are known as "Activitists," and
are very unpopular among the ma
jority of their fellow citizens. An
Activists demonstration" was ar
ranged in Brussels recently and was
much exploited in the German press
at the time. But, according to the
Echo Beige, the demonstration was
a fiasco.
"Instead of 5000, the audience was
only 1,000," says the newspaper.
Moreover, oen-third of these were
Dutch and another third Germans,
partly in uniform. The procession to
the market place was attached as
soon as noticed by the crowd, not
withstanding the protection of the
local police Next time there may be
a riot. Now the Activists are begin

BELGIUM STILL
RESSTS TEUTONS
Trade Still Endures and Wage In
creases to WOrkmen Have Gone In,
Despite the Activity of German u
BOats-Discontent and Unrest Is
Growing Among the Laborers
(By Associated Press)

Amsterdam, Jan. 2A.-After more
than three years of effort, the Ger
man authorities in Belgium have to
admit the failure of their attempt
to drive wedge between the two
races and languages in Belgium. The
unity of Belgium still exists, and
there are signs that the Germans
have given up, at least for the time
being, their attempt to break it up.
The authority for this statement is
the German propagandist weekly in
Holland, the Tokomst, which states
that the present policy of the gov
ernor general in Brussels is "more
moderate" and that 'Berlin ap-
proves this policy as a means of
gaining peace" The articles concludes
by advising the advocates of the for
mer German policy to "steer. mid
die course and give up their flour
ishes Of rhetoric"
