 The Department of Agriculture has asked for scventy-five thousand dollars for the experimental sta tions already established in the coun- try. The department also plans for the establishment of a stock experi- ment station on Kodiak Island, where the breeding of stock will be tried Some stock had been placed on the island some time ago, but as re- suit of the eruption of the katmai volcano, with the complete destruc- tion of all vegetation on the island, the department of agriculture was compelled to remove them elsewhere.

ALASKA ESTIMATES
 FOR IMPROVEMENTS

SEATTLE.-The special cores pendent of the Seattle P-I. at Wash ington, D. C., in despatch to his paper says that the amount of funds to meet the increases in expenditures by all of the executive departments connected with Alaska, with the ex- ception of the railway and forestry departments, is forecasted by the estimates submitted to Congress.
 The various appropriation bills to be submitted for passage later and which will be based on the estimates indicate that the lighthouse service wants an appropriation of seventy five thousand dollars for the pur- pose of installing twenty-three acety- lene lights and five buoys as aids to navigation and to prevent shipwreck and disaster as much as possible. The lighthouse service also wants an appropriation of one hundred and forty-five thousand dollars to build Cape Spencer light. Cape Spencer is at the north entrance to Cross Sound, which leads to LyiE Canal via the Icy Straits, and owing to the lack of proper aids to naviga- tion is considered a dangerous place to navigate by marines plying in Northern waters. Three steamers were wrecked and three stranded just inside the Cross Sound which might have been prevented had there been light on Cape Specner.
 Seventy thousand dollars are asked for general repairs to the stations and lighthouses now existing.
 The Coast Survey has requested an appropriation of eight hundred and forty thousand dollars to be in- vested in new boats for the purpose of carrying on and extending the survey of the coast and the com

 IS EXPOUNOED
(ASSociatHd Press)

LONDON.-The London Times, in a lengthy article expounding the British view of the freedom of the seas, which was the causus belli for America's entrance into the great struggle, says that England is pre- pared, as she has done heretofore, to patrol the seas with her naval force, and ensure their freedom as in times of peace, before the out break of hostilities with the Central Powers.
 It states that England, in the past, has been keeping the seas free from rrime and has allowed foreign ves- sells to enter the English coastwise trade, and that England is now ready as far as compatible with her safety, to promote a practical scheme for the formation of league of nations, such as suggested by President Will son.
