NO ARRESTS IN CGTY
 DURING THE PAST YEAR

That Valdez holds the record fer or6erliness is shown by the fact that not single arrest has been made in the city for any cause for the past seven months. We believe thas this is the record for any town of the same size in the United Stetes.
 What proved to be a near-arrest was made last week when U. s. Mar shal Brenneman gathered in Fred ("Copenhagen") Christensen for al- levet intoxication. Copenhagen" is one of the best mimics of a drunk en man off the vaudeville stage, and the other evening when he met the marshal could not resist pulling off his his4rionic stunt. He was promptly gathered in by Marshal Brenneman and started for the fed eral bastile, but succeeded after a time in convincing the marshal that he was acting. Both parties to the incident felt like keeping still; but Fred has cut out the acting, and Marshal Brenneman say' henceforth he will smell their breath before running them in. - Miner.

COAL MINES REPORT PROGRESS

Anchorage, Jan. 29. - Despite the high cost of all sorts of ma terisls and the difficulties of trans portation, as 8 result of the world WET, material progress was made In 1918 in the development of the Mstanuska coal fields, which, by the route of the government rail- road, are "A miles northeast of An chorage, according to the reports made by operators to the Land and Industrial Department of the AL askan Engineering Commission.
 Two of the mining properties are producing coal in commercial quan- titles. The outputs of the others are inconsequential, and are mere ly incidental to the work of pros pectiug and developing.
 The commercial producers are tie Eska, operated by the Alaskan Engineering Commission, and the Little Susitna, operated by the Lit tle Susitna Coal Company. The pro duction of tho Eska averages about 5000 tons a month and that of the Little Susftna abotu soc tons a month. The market is confined ex' clusiyely to Anchorage and towns aIong the coast division of the gov ernmeu+ railroads. Both mines can greatly increase their outputs as soon Rs they are afforded water transportation facilities st reason ahle charges.
 The other coal mines in the Anchorage district are the Chicka- loon, operated by the Alaskan En- glneering Commission; Unit No. Il, operated by Chtckaloon Coal Com .pany, of which Waltre A. Gompertz Is the mansger, and the Mataauska. At the Chickaloon mine the com mission is doing prospecting work with 8 force of thirty-fiVe men. Al Unit No. Il, the Chickaloon is prospecting work with 8 force ot thirty five men. At Unit No. II, the Chickaloon Is prospecting with 6 diamonG drill with excellent re suits. At the MataDuska mine, on ly two watchmen are employed now. Its management expects tc resume operations on quite Ss ex' tensive scale next summer.

What Cattle May Be Moved.
MANURE IN CROP ROTATIONS
Increased Yields Secured in Expert
ments at West Virginia and Ohio
Experiment Stations

The agricultural value of manure
usually is greater than the plant-food
value For example, the application
of 12h tons of manure year for 10
years at the West Virginia expert
ment station gave increased crop
yields valued at $40 an acre a year. or
S3.12 ton for the manure used. Dur
ing a period of ten years the Ohio ex-
pertinent station has obtained an in
crease of crops valued at $3.50 a ton
for the manure used. The application
was made at the rate of eight tons of
manure an acre during a five-year ro-
tation of corn, wheat, oats. clover and
timothy. Two applications of four tons
each were made, one for corn and one
for clover. Manure used in connection
with continuous grain cropping did not
maintain the yields. but when used in
connection with crop rotation the
yields of all crops were increased.

AS 1T LOOKED TO BROTHER
Sister Was Doing What Pretty Well
All of Us Would Like
to DO.

A Muncie family is contemplating
the remOdeling of its house. Several
architects have been calling with plans
during the last few days-all very
successful architects, too. The other
day one who looked especially good
to the younger children arrived. That
noon they discussed him at me family
table. "Oh. he's rich," ventured one
of the youngsters.
"Why?" smiled the elder sister-just
twenty.
why he looks so prosperous" came
back the answer, to the amusement of
the rest of the family.
That afternoon the architect made
a return trip and displayed his plans
to the elder sister. The high-school
boy arrived while the two of them
were on the veranda looking over the
plans. After the architect had gone
he strolled over to his sister and re-
marked: II see you're trying to get
close to prosperity yourself. "-Indian-
