Protecting Airp'ane propeI,ers.

An aluminium plating for asrplane
propellers has been devised for the
purpose Of protecting the wood from
the influence of the weather, which
has been a serious problem heretofore
The pla ting Is thin leaf which is In
corporated In the finish of the propcl-
lers, and the idea was developed by
the forest products. laboratory at
Madison. Wis, and placed in produc-
ton by the war department. The
process is practically 100 per cent eff
fective in preventing. absorption OF
water. particularly in the storage
stage. A French authority states that
so per cent of the French propellers
produced are rejected by the pilots
mainly because they are out Of bal

unequal absorption or distribution Of
moisture and can be greatly reduced
by an effective water-lroofing coating

Stopping 4 Great Waste.

Millions Of dollars worth Of fruit
have been wasted in Florida during
the quarter Of a century. Hereafter
nothing win be wasted as the drops,
culls and ripes will all be utilized by
new processes evolved by a clever
chemist and scientist. The growers
aud the public generally will be helped
by these processes, as the former will
reap a benefit from the sale of their
waste products and the latter will
have the benefits Of the manufactured
products which are greatly in demand.

WITCRCRhFT TO BE AIRED BY TIE
 GRAND JURORS
Ten Natives Are Brought From Yakutat to Tes- tify in Case Involving
 a Murder

Judge E. AXelson, United State Commissioner at Yakutat, and abol. ten natives arrived on the Admiral Watson yesterday They are here a witnesses before the grand jury II the witchcraft case in which Peter Lawrence is accused of the murder of Billie James.
 Lawrence was indicted by the grand jury this morning for his mur dor which was supposed to have G cured last August at Yakutat. Ie was brought to town the middle of last month suffering from self iniiict- ed wounds made on his throat with razor in an attempt to commit sui eide after killing James.
 The killing and attempted suici1c was the continuation of Lawrence having been accused of bewitching James wife for which it was said that James was going to kill him at the first opportunity to break the spell.
 Besides the ten natives that ar rived on the Watson to be witnesses in the Yakutat witchcraft case there were 25 other natives passengers fol Juneau on that boat. They came here to do their fall shopping and to visit with relatives.

MANY ALASKANS GET PASSPORTS TO VISIT
 EUROPE THIS YEAR

Senator William E. Britt, Norwe gian Vice-Consul for the First and Third Divisions of Alaska, has SC cured passports this fall for about a half hundred Norwegians to go to Norway. Some of these are going there to remain, though probably a majority of them intend to return tc Alaska before the opening of another spring to resume their vacations ii his Territory. Most of these are go ing from Juneau and vicinity.
 Most of those Who are making the long trip to Puget Sound, thence across the continent and ocean te Norway are laboring men and fisher men.
 A trip to Norway, several months in that country and return to Alas ka. involves considerable expen 1iture. That will be particularly true with those who are taking their families with them to the old coal ny. Practically all those who are making the trip have made'the money with which to go in Alaska.

SEPTEMBER PROVES WARMER MONTH THAN
 USUALLY THE CASE
Some Figures Concerning the Month Submitted by the U. s. Weather
 Bureau

According to tke Weather Bureau : meteorological summary for Septem per- the month just closed averaged somewhat warmer than usual, the mean temperature being SIS degreeA as against a 25-year mean for Sep tember of sol degrees In Septe Il Der of last year the mean'was 52 Z whiles the highest in the 25 years was 526 in 1910. September, 1915 was the coolest, with mean of 46 z The extremes in temperature for the month ranged from 69 degrees on the 14th to B on the 27th
 Out of possible sunshine of 3S5 l hours, the actual sunshine totaied 171.0 hours, or Al per cent La st year the month had 43 per cent and in 1917, 34 per cent.
 So far as the total precipitation $ concerned, the month was practically normal, there being 11.35 inches of rain, as against an average of 10 fl inches for previous September While there were several heavy rains during the month. and the greatest amount in any 24 consecu tive hours was 237 inches on the 24th, none of the rains even ap preached the record of Septembsr of last year, when the town expert enced a downpour of 5.54 inches in A hours on the 18th and 26th, rain that is still vivid in the minds of residents of the Cold creek basin.
 A peculiar feature of the weather of the month was the fact that f)I the third consecutive September nc precipitation fell during the first ;even days of the month When asked whether this absence of rain in three successive years has any significance, NJ. B. Summers, in charge of the Weather Bureau office stated that if has not and that it is only a coincidence. In support of his contention he pointed to the Sep 4enber precipitation record for the five years from 1912 to 1916. inciu sive These records show that dlr
 ng those five years rain occurred
 vice on September 1 and twice or he 2nd three times on the 3rd; lines on the 4th, 5th and 9th, and four times on the 7th.

E. s. Hewitt Gives His Im- pressiOns After a Visit to the PIace--Fishing
 Industry
'LVp,ri-ht h S.

Each time I return from a trip l1 Sitka I am more than ever impressed with the possibilities for trade ex. pansicn and industrial development of southeastern Alaska" said E. s Hewitt of Hewitt & Company, whe@ seen after his return from a business trip there.
 From all indications" he con, tinued, "Sitka, as well as the other towns, is awakening to the knowi edge that it has at hand great un developed farm with crops already to be garnered in such products a. fish, minerals and timber products, Only is needed better transportation to breathe the life of trade into these dormant resources.
 When the coal and oil to the west ward, are developed and ocean going vessels take the direct route vita the products to the outside, there ii little doubt but Sitka will be made port of call In addition there is every prospect that the city will be an important naval station for Alaska and for naval vessels cover ing the great circle to the orient.
 Tt has been the history of all na- tions, that as the inland waters get fished out, the fleet of fishermen seek deep sea fishing Sitka is ideally situated for outftting for the grelt fishing grounds of the ocean, and with transportation will have means of shipping the product to the mar kets of the world. The steamship line which pioneers the way for the great volume of trade that will re- suit, will, in time, reap a rich re ward
 The mineral belt of that part oi he country, the same as is true of most of the districts of Alaska, has been scarcely scratched Few min eral districts have made better showing for the amount of develop ment work done. However in the long run, fish and fish products will form the backbone of the industry 0f the future. The numerous bay nd inlets and the whole Pacific lcean form farm with verfailine crops"
