experience of John Randolph Watson
of the town of Standish.
Mr.. Watson was a photographer in
%Indianola, and In 1856 an explosion of
chemicals burned away his eyelids, al
though the sight was not affected. But
with unprotected eyes he continued
for nearly half a century, three years
of the period being spent in Alaska,
where the severity of the climate
caused c~ataracts to form on both eyes
and results in loss of sight.
He went to Philadelphia later, where
he formerly lived for a time. and was
at the Hahnemann hospital, and by
grating flesh from his leg he got a
new set of eyelids. The success of the
operation Is now assured. The cata-
racts were removed and the sight has
been restored.

WHEAT PRICE GUARANTEES
WILL REMAIN IN FORCE
Food Administration Grain Corpora
tlon VIII Continue to Act As
Purchasing Agency.

Judging from considerable number
Of Inquiries regarding purchase of the
1918 and 1919 wheat crops In view Of
prospects for early peace, the follow
ing statement seems desirable, says
the Farm Journal section of the U. s.
Food Administration:
The presidents proclamation of
February 81, 1918, fixing guaranteed
prices for the 1918 wheat crop, applies
TO wheat harvested in the United
States during the year 1918 and Of
fered for sale before the first day of
June, 1919, to such agent or employee
OF the United States, or other person
as may be hereafter designated" at
the principal primary markets speci-
ned. The Food Administration Grain
Corporation was designated June 21,
1918. to purchase the 1918 wheat crop
and will therefore continue to exercise
that duty and obligation even though
peace should be signed prior to June
j, 1919. The Food Control Act pro-
vides that termination of the act shall
not affect any obligation accrued or
accruing during its existence and the
purchase of the 1918 wheat crop is
such an obligation

ALASKA INTENSELY PATRIOTIC
Inhabitants Of Our Polar Colony Take
Lead In Conserving Food.

Lansing, Dec.-Up in Alaska, pa
triotism is intense. They have given
men to the army, oversubscribed their
fourth Liberty loan, and now the
housewives have reported to the
Food Administration that they have
been faithfully observing the requests,
and have been canning every avail
able vegetable and putting up great
quantities of berries and fruits.
The vegetables that grow in that
cold part of the country are the har-
der kind and those that grow
quickly-potatoes turnips, carrots,
beets and rutabagas.
There are no better fisheries than
those in Alaska. They are famous
for cod. halibut, salmon, herring and
whitefish. They will provide our
markets with much Of the fish that
we shall have to eat this year, II we
are going to conserve enough meat
to send abroad the two million SIX
hundred thousand tons that are nee
essary to feed our army and navy
and the Allies.

Whale meat is becoming better
known. One thousand pounds were
recently shipped from the Pacific
coast to Boston. A whaling COM
pany in Victoria, b. c., expects to
pack between thirty and fifty thous-
and cases of whale meatsthis season
at their cannery at Kyoquot. Whales
yield from three to twelve tons of
prime meat. This is always used
for canning or freezing.
Whale meat is not fish. The whale
is a red-blooded animal. The meat
is like cOrned beef or mutton. 1t is
highly nutritious. 1t contains thirty
per cent Of protein, the principal It's.
sue forming material of food, as CON.
or mutton.
Another Alaskan product that has
been brought forward is reindeer
meat. 1t is tender and has the taste
Of wild game, but is as good as beef.
The reindeer weighs on an average OF
$50 pounds when dressed. 1t has
been estimated that there are more
than 100000 reindeer in Alaska, and
that herds aggregating $4,000 have
been purchased and will be marketed.
One of the advantages of reindeer
is that ii costs nothing to feed them.
Prices Of feed grains for cattle are
high now. Reindeer live on lichens.
which would otherwise be valueless.
The only expense for maintenance of
reindeer is for the labor of herding
them, and the cost of Strengthening
them.

The presidents proclamation OF Sep
TENDER 2, 1918, establishing guaran-
teed prices for the 1919 wheat crop

United States during 1919 and offered

the case Of the 1918 crop the wheat

present date, however, the agency by
which the 1919 wheat crop IS 10 oe

Thus, although the guarantee for
the 1919 wheat crop will continue until

THE HOPE OF REWARD.

II HERE are tvo theories in the effort 10 make the world
better.
One is In holding out the punishment for doing
wrong and the other the hope Of reward for doing right
Both have been effective but think that too much
stress has been put upon the fear Of punishment.
Punishment for instance has not the value in pre-
venting crime for gain that have all supposed; for
those who steal never with the Idea Of being caught
Stealing Is in the belief that punishment be evaded.
The world IS getting better because who comprise
Il finding that II pays TO conduct our social and bus
life honestly and do our individual tasks we'll
efficiently.
The world getting better just TO the degree that we
learn the true reward Of honesty and efficiency.
There is for Illustration the dscoureous. inefficient
employe OF the public or semlpublic institution.
We report TO him with the idea Of his reprimand or
discharge and 10 inst the fear Of punishment In others
who might incline to dscourtesy and ineflciency
But how few or us report say the courteous, ef
ncient street car conductor Of the Wilmington and Phila
delphia Traction Companythe one who helps women
with children or the the blind man to the side
walk?
There are always enough of us to complain, but few
who commend.
has never occurred to most OF that by letter or
word OF commentator OF courteous efficient employe
TO his employer that would encourage his reward by
promotion and thereby make example for fellow employees
10 conduct themselves in like manner.
We are all more apt to do those things which we
should do ami refrain doing those things which we
should by the hope Of reward rather than through
the fear Of punishment
Here is in part letter by the president Of big bak
ing concern Of Ptsburg TO its customers and which illus
trates the thought
''whre complaint is important yet all Of US would
get good deal further along II would be as quick
to compliment whan compliment is deserved
III any OF our Individual saesmen or delverymen~are
unusually courteous or efficient why. let me know It so
that may offer the proper announcement and reward
Il will know those deserving Of complaint seon enough
but might never find the fellow deserving Of reward
unless | am told Of him.
Il think if all Of in business would be as quick to
compliment as TO kck-yVhy this would be a good deal
better business world
Perhaps the reason have all held out more fear Of
punishment than hope Of reward In the matter Of em-
poyment is that have thought Imprisonment cheaper
than reward.
The price OF administering reward IS greater than that
OF punishment as matter OF hrst cost, but the hna
economy and profit IS greater In providing true ineen-
tive TO more and better effort and free from the weak
ening influence Of fear.
