by these explosives.
In the coal mining districts are
many culm banks containing large
quantities Of stove oil. If these banks
were shaken up by exploding a guam
tity of these explosives, O supply of
cheap coal would result that would
suffice for the very cold period and
allow q cheaper supply of coal for
consumers.
The submarine warfare, with the
large number of boat sunk, means
that from time to time some of them
will reappear at the surface. THESE
explosives can be used on them for
two purposes; either to bring them TO
the surface by exploding a large
amount Of explosives around whore
they lay or lower the expiosived Into
them SO as to destroy and demolish
any wreck or derelict that appears.
In many of our rivers n harbors
there are projecting reefs and NOV
able sand bars that endanger naViga-
ton. These could be blasted out and
removed.
For some time there has been under
consideration in this country n plan
to build a drydock by blasting in q

The cost OF this work to the gov

and concreting as the work could be
done by enlisted men. who would
thereby receive valuable practical in

Many undertakings which are to be
commenced in the near future ana on

In the northwestern states where

occur, doing damage to property, rail-
roads and bridges, often devastating
towns with great loss of life In these

could be blown IN the track of these

A house is as old as it's condition.

A house is as old as its condition.
The age of a house is not reckoned in years. Many
houses, within your knowledge, built only ten years
are spoken of and thought of as old houses. They
look like old houses, are valued as old houses, bring
the rentals of old houses and are worth clubhouse
prices when sold.
1t is good business from the standpoint of dollars and
cents to keep your property in first class repalrl
The amount you will save in depreciation will far
more than offset the amount spent on these neces-
sary repairs.
1t is good business, from the standpoint of sef-re-
spect and community standing, to keepyour house
looking like the home of a prosperous, established
family. Such a home, by its very air of prosperity,
stability and permanency. will bring you the respect
and esteem of your associates and give you a sense
of responsibility which comes of being an approved,
established part of your community.
If your house needs repairs, NOW is the time to
make them. 1t is conceded that to carry out these
repairs under present conditions the cyst may be
from ten to fifteen percent more than it would have
been five years ago. But all authorities are agreed
that present prices will probably continue until some
indefinite time In the future.

Notwithstanding, porches and fences may be serl-
ously damaged. For lack of mended plumbing,
pipes may leak, causing your home to become damp

But by taking care of all these things-by using a
little thought and a little money at the right thine
you keep your home always comfortable and a%ttrac-
tive, and make it a pleasant place in which to- live.
By such care you add materially to the value Of, your
property. Every dollar put into repairs is a collar
invested which aids in making your house that
much more desirable and therefore that much more
valuable. Improved property which is kept improv-

valid collateral in any business transaction, and
serves as a stable security in case of emergency.

 The clipping from the Star fol- lows:
 Fred Jansa Mushon, Seattle soft drink merchant, who has returned here from service with the French navy as a lieutenant, led an influen- za-stricken crew into safety at Callao, Chile, just after the signing of the armistice.
 "Mushon's ship, the Vimy, which had sailed from San Francisco on French government service, and was two days out at sea when the cap tain and crew. with the exception of Mushon and two men. were taken down with influenza.
 "Mushon took charge of the vessel while the captain signed his will and prepared for death. Engine fuel and water commenced to give out.

BANKS RUNNING
 OUT TIMERS

The Howell sawmill outfit which was located some distance below the town of Nenana and purchased by c. N. Banks and removed to a site along the Nenana-F Fairbanks right of way Is reported to be running full blast and turning out the timbers at Q good rate. Up to the present time about 50.000 feet of bridge timbers have been delivered to the commits sion and will be used in constructing the many bridges between Fairbanks and Nenana.
 The best timber. or that which is suitable for construction purposes, has been cut in the present loca- tion and the mill will be moved to another patch further down the line. The acquisition of the mill near the places where the bridges are to be built eliminates much delay in the construction or the bridges as the timbers are delivered practically where they are needed.

 Stacer Is reported to be at Anchor. age and in the employ of the Alas kan Engineering commission, being located at one of the coal mines of the commission. He has purchased a home at the coast city and intends making his future residence there.
 Starser was inducted into service with the first draft from Fairbanks, being Outside when he was called A short time after reporting for duty he was promoted to drill sergeant at Camp Lewis, which rank he filled until mustered out.

SEARCHING FOR
 LOST PAYSTREAK

That Ben Brumbaugh and asso- ciates, mining in the Tolovana coun- try. are making a determined effort to locate the lost paystreak in Livengood is evidenced from the lat est reports to be received from that camp. A large Keystone drill. which is operated by the Brumbaugh group, is at present working cross-cutting the wide flats of tha tcreek, trying to locate the missing pay, the scene of the present operations being be- low the mouth of Lillian creek.
 The men behind the undertaking evidently share the belief of most of the mining men of that camp that the coarse Livengood run of gold continues on thru these flats, under similar conditions as existed in the rich Dome creek pay. which con- tinued down from the famous Mig gerhead claim to the Chatanika flats.
