American dairy cattle are to follow
American soldiers to France. One
hundred and four Holstein-Friesian
cows-42 pure breds and 62 grades
and four pure-bred bulls are to leave
this country shortly on a specially
equipped transport. Passports" have
been issued to Havre, France, and from
there the cattle will be sent to de-
vastated districts where they will do
their bit in bringing back health and
happiness to the children of those re-
gions. The cattle were purchased by
the French high commission. and at
the commissions request dairy spe-
cialists of the United States depart
ment of agriculture assisted in select
ing the animals.
Efforts were made to collect the ami
mails from herds believed to be free
from contagious disease, especially
tuberculosis.
Of the entire number of cattle Sc
lected from ~ herds "a very low per-
eentage reacted to the tuberculin test.
Special efforts were made to select
only well-grown, large. strong animals,
of good conformation, which showed
evidences of becoming large milk pro-
ducers. In age they varied from two
to four and one-half years, SO that
long period of usefulness is ahead. All
were due to freshen soon after arrival
in France, so that milk will be avail
able at once.
The animals were shipped from the
assembling points by express to New
York, where they are to be loaded on
specially equipped transport. To in
sure proper care throughout the
ocean voyage. dairy expert of the
United States department of agricul-
ture will accompany the shipment.

CANNOT IMPROVE ON VIOLIN
Centuries Pass, but No Difference Is
Seen in the Structure of This
instrument.

Even In this age of hustle and
change, some few of the old stand
bys remain unchanged. but at that it
is rather startling to realize that the
violin, probably the bestowed of all
musical instruments, has remained
virtually unchanged in shape or sub
stance for three centuries. In that
time the harpsichord, lutte and spinet
have passed away. the harp has been
improved, the piano has been invented
and developed, but the violin. which
took a hundred years to assume its
present form, since the days of the
great Stradivari, the worlds most IA
nous violin maker, has remained I'M
changed.
The violin is popularity supposed to
date from the date of the ancient In
dams, but the present instrument had
its beginning back in the days of the
troubadours, who used musical boxes
called violes or guitar fiddles. And as
the years went by. the little violes were
improved The shape was altered |;
bit by bit the instrument changed.
Now bridge was added; now a waist;
now the "F holeS"-twO carved open
ings on either side of the bridge
were added.
And from 1860 to 1760 the violin
industry rose to its greatest achieve
ment in the development of Amati.
Guarneri and Stradivari, italian violin
makers living in the town OF Gre
mona. Since their time there has been
no change. and the finest and most
priceless musical instrument of today
is Stradivarius violin, made three
centuries ago by the master crafts
man, Stradivari, in Cremona-

chance. Putting that fellow out OF
business queers us forever afterward. y
He dropped to his knees and began
searching over the ground with his
hands. Here it is. You can't see it,
of course, so I'll tell you what it Is.
A nice little block of sandalwood. I've
already got his nice little hammer, so
we'll see what we can raise in the way

Without the slightest hesitation he
struck a succession of quick. confident
blows upon the block of wood.
"By CAD, you are wonder!"
"Wait till tomorrow before you say
that" replied Sprouse, sententiously.
"Come along now. Stick to the trail.
We've got to land the other one"
Turning sharply to the right,
Sprouse guided his companion through
the brush for some distance, and once
more came to a halt. Again he stole
on ahead, and as before the slow, con-
fident, even careless progress of a
man ceased as abruptly as that of the
comrade who lay helpless in the
thicket below.
Barnes laid firm, OBTAINING hand

primarily, of course, the growth of
New Jersey is due to its geographical
location and indispensable transporta-

having brought knowledge of these
and other favoring circumstances with
in the reach of ALL Several of the
principal industrial states have follow
ed the example of New Jersey by issu-

JUNEAU STAMPEDER SAYS
TESLIN STRIKE DOUBTFUL

There is no certainty regarding
the richness of the reported placer
strike on the North Teslin, accord
ing to Marion Goldstein, who re-
turned to Juneau from the Atlin
country recently. He says one stam-
peder returned to Atlin after mush-
ing 80 miles, saying there had not
been sufficient work done to reach
bedrock in the new diggings, and
the surface prospects did not justi-
fly stampede. The little work
done has been mostly by Indians.
Goldstein reports good cleanups
in the Atlin district, one property
on Spruce shipping a heavy con-
signment of placer gold. He also
reports about thirty Teslin Indians
at Taku coming out to work in the
canneries during the summer.

American firms appear eager TO
buy German made goods as quickly
as possible, according to letters pass
ing recently through the United
States army censorship. Canoes,
agates and amethysts appear to be
particularly in demand in America.
AS an indication of how German
industries are being stimulated by
orders from foreign countries, a

the crockery factories in Thuringen
have enough orders on file to keep
them engaged four years.
On the other hand, Germany IS

of various kinds Purchases just at
this time, however, are confined
chiefly to food, cloth and other ar

REVENUE SHORT,

Showing decrease from last
year of $50, 54s.64, the license rev.
enue report for the First division
for the year ended June 80, 1919,
has been made by ]. W. Bell, clerk
of the court at Juneau. The de-
crease is caused chiefly by the cut
ting off of the revenue from saloon
licenses since January, 1918, when
the Alaska bone-dry law went into
effect The 1918 fiscal year income
included liquor license taxes for the
six months from 1917 to 1918.
The net revenue for licenses is
sued outside of incorporated towns
and placed to the credit of the
Alaska fund, for the fiscal year end
ed June 80, 1919, is s103,9s1.61.
The same for the year ended June
80, 1918, was s11s.41s.31. This
shows a decrease from last year of
s14,436.7o.
The total revenues received in in
towns and paid to the
treasurers of the various towns dur
ing the fiscal year ended June 80.
1919, are s40.426.51. For the year
ended June 80, 1918, are s4O,426.-

received in an incorporated town

VALDEZ BOY LOOKING

Charles Swanson, a lS-year-oli

friends much anxiety a few weeks
ago by leaving for the Interior over

borrowed his brothers bicycle, and
was last seen riding about town.
When he did not show up at home,
the following morning, a search was
instituted, and the bicycle was
found on the trail a short dis

no trace could be found of the
youngster. The bicycle had a brok-

doned. sKEWN
Word was received some days

that the boy had shown up there,
and was enroute to the Interior to
get a job. He had had nothing
to eat for three days, but otherwise
