FORMER GERMAN SAMOA
 TO BE SELF-SUPPORTINC

AUCKLAND, New Zealand, April 5 Correspondence of the Associated Press) Colonel Robert Logan, the New Zealand administrator of former German Samoa, says the future of the colony is very bright. Cattle-raising and cocoanut-growing are two import ant industries.
 Colonel Logan said that former Ger man Samoa had been self-supporting since New Zealand military occupa- tion. In 1917 trade increased over that of 1916 by over $1,000,O0O; and the figures for 1918 would have been record but for the epidemic of 1n- fleunza. The increase in trade is now nearly all with the United States. Apia, said Colonel Logan, needs basin and wharf where vesesls may discharge cargo in any weather ln- stead of having to discharge in the open roadstead.

ter (relative seeds for patrons Fair banks office and other Tanana valley places) an inquiry was made of the person in charge of the Alaska sec tion of the Seattle, Washington post office as to whether seeds from the department of agriculture for points in Alaska have been received and handled there, and in reply the Alaska section man states that up to the present writing very few seeds from the department of agriculture for points in Alaska have come to hand He did state, however, that he handled a few packages for Fairbanks few weeks ago and that same have gone forward in the mails for Fair banks. He also stated that the wrap pers containing these packages were labeled First Class Mail and in view of this I do not think there is any doubt that as seeds for Alaska will go forward promptly.
 This office is unable to understand how it happens that he quantity of seed for points in Alaska this year is so much less than in previous years, unless it is for the reason that there is some question as to who the proper delegate for Alaska is, and whose duty it is to see to it that the good people of Alaska get their proper quota of gardens seeds"

IN POLITICAL
 FURRY WICK
 FORGOT SEEDS

The time for putting our Victory merous people in this district, from Fairbanks throughout the entire Tan ana valley, and probably in certain other divisions, are wondering where their customary supply of government seeds has gone. Many of them are no doubt cussin' the mail contractors or the steamers plying between Puget sound and Alaska, or the railway mail service between Seattle and Washing ton because these seeds have not ar rived.
 The Citizen, learning that no seed distribution had taken place up to the present time, called at the post office and inquired of Postmaster Deal as to what he knew about the nOn- arrival and distribution of free seeds. And he knew quite some, and what he knew didn't locate the seed. In fact, they never will be located, at least in time for planting this year, and people who have been expecting the govern ment to furnish them with the seeds necessary to make their Victory gar dens success might as well go and buy what they want, for this year at least there ain't no such animal as a government seed"
 Early during the month of March Postmaster Deal, realizing with con- cern, that the seed shipment was over due, and thinking that it might have been held up in the Seattle office, communicated with R. c. Knox, super intendent of the Alaskan division of the mail service, requesting that he look the matter up and have for warded any seed shipments which might be there.
 He got action. Superintendent Knox got busy and sleuthed around the Seattle office but with no result. He is a man who has always done his best for his Alaskan patrons and after he got through with his investi- gation, he wrote Postmaster Deal as follows:

liquid. the air will carry with it some
of the fine particles of the liquid, and
also because this friction will make
the top of the liquid warm. 1t is on
the above principle that the Ford car
buretor is based.
In the illustration "B" is the pipe
from the supply tank. &c" the float
chamber, with it's cork float and it's
die chamber. You will note that the
level of liquid in the float chamber
Is slightly-1s of an inch in practice,
higher than the bottom of the puddle
chamber, thus there will be a thin
puddle of gasoline in the chamber.
Note that because of the curve in
the corners of this chamber, the sur
face or area of the top of the puddle
will be greater when the depth or
thickness Of the puddle in increased or
vice versa.
Now, as the engine is cranked, be-
cause of a suction stroke, vacuum
will be formed in the manifold, H, B"
and SO in the puddle chamber, with
'Sthe result that the gasoline will vapor
lie, and at the same time a current
of air will enter at IF" and so carry
this gas to the cylinder, mixing with it
on the way thereto.
How is the proportion Of gasoline to
mir in the mixture controlled or regu-
lated? AS the gasoline vapOriZes, the
puddle will disappear or become thin

take the place of that used. Now, If
we were to control the entrance of
This fresh gasoline, SO as to keep the
puddle at certain thickness, we
would also keep the area of the top
of the puddle, or the SURFACE from
which the gas can vaporize, to a GER
tain amount and we would thus con-
troll the percent of gas in the mixture.

amount the throttle valve can be
closed. AS it is screwed back, it al
lows the throttle to close more, and so
the engine will go slower, while, If
screwed forward the throttle can not
close so much and the engine will run
faster.
When the engine is warm this
screw should be regulated so that the
engine will run as slowly as possible,
without having a tendency to stall or
stop. Practically every make of car
buretor has such screw, and If your
engine runs too fast, or tends to stall
when idling, you can correct the fault
here.
Carburetor Adjustment
Because of the great variations in
the method used to adjust the mix
ture in the various carburetors, most
adjusting on the gas, while some, as
the Stromberg, adjust on the air, it
is difficult to give method of adj
iustment without taking up each car
buretor separately. The following,
however, will be a help. The op-
orator will first have to determine
what the various adjusting screws
on his particular carburetor, are for
The steps to take when adjusting are
as follows:
l. Be sure that the ignition is
O. X.
2. Be sure that no false air" is
entering either where the carburetor
is joined to the manifold, or where
the manifold is Joined to the cylin'
ders.
3. Be sure the gasoline is feeding
properly to the carburetor.
a. Warm up the engine by run
ming at least fifteen minutes.
5. Make the low speed adjustment
thus: Retard the spark; slowly turn
the low speed adjustment screw so as
to make the mixture leaner. In doing
this, Turn the Screw One Notch at a
Time, and then Wait to See What the
Result Is. Keep making the mixture
leaner until There is a popping in the
