LANES IDEA OF PROPER
 ALASKA ADMlNISTRATIoN

The widely discussed suggestion Of former Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane to concentrate gov ernment control of Alaska in d depart : mental board resident in the terri tory. the outline of which was received by telegraph in January. is completely set forth in the following copy of h!s telegram voicing the proposal read at the annual dinner of the Alaska Ru- reau of the Seattle Chamber of Com meree, January 9.
 Secretary Lane said:
 The government should either |, prepared to act paternalistically in the development of this domain which it owns, or it should make it easier for the people to develop it themsevccs It is not necessary to give away its resources in order to secure this de- Velopment
 The first step should be concen- 'rsttaon of governmental. authority in single board resident in Alaska which would have authority broa l enough to permit it to develop Alaska along pioneer lines. making the re wards ample for those who do the de veloping. but insuring against long speculative holding
 The northern regions of Alaslua should be filled with reindeer and musk OK. A herd of the latter sbould be brought over from northern Can ada They can feed with the rein deer upon the grasses which the rein deer do not eat and these animals could supply the whole Pacific coast with meat.
 industries should be found to sup port permanent coast fishing villages throughout the winter. The growth of agriculture in Alaska must largely depend upon the growth of mining. and with our new railroad which Con- gress has now insured I look for a rebirth of the mining industry.
 We have not yet began to know whit is in Alaska. Its islands should be leased or twelt- or tNirty year terms as grea. her,inr grounds for hardy cattle, and lae ridiculous laws protecting r'edato,'; animals should be repealed so IS tc make the herds safe.

JENSEN WRITES
 OF koTzEsUE

/In a letter to Capt. J. H. Sundback Hated ut Kotzebue January Sl, Tom /Jensen, who is now in charge of the government school at, that point, writes of his surroundings and himself as follows:
 I am located here in kotzebue all O. k. It took us almost a month to get here. The water backed up in Kotzebue sound and we were held in Candle for two weeks. The trip over from Nome was not at all bad. altho the trails were in bad shape. rnere were five of six teams 9s us all the time. which made it all right for trav- cling but very crowded at night in the shelter cabins.
 I am glad to have made the trip overland and like it on the trail. Ar rived here on Sunday night and startsd right in to teach. Monday morning. They were expecting me. The school had already been started by lady, who had agreed to n until somebody arrived from Nome. There are IS pupils attending regularly every day. Only two are white, the rest all half breeds They are all bright and clean and like the work Time goes fast. as I am busy ali ray with the school; then my cooking and. last feed my dogs.
 This is quite a settlement. Thera are only three full white couples. The rest are all mixed. The Quaker mis- sionary. Mir Hadlev and his wife are very fine people. They surely put in lot of time preaching the Gospel to the natives. They have three child ren, one large enough to 80 to school. They are very nice to me and quite often I have dinner. with them.
 The natives here own reindeer and are quite well to do. They live a real civilized life. This winter they have caught 6 large number of red and white foxes. There are three trading posts here and plenty of provisions f all kinds. Prices are no. ve " much higher than in Nome. Ther. Was while when we didn't see the sun here at all. It kept below the horizon. But already the days are nice and long.

Potato Exchange Makes Mo!

Potato Exchange Makes Money for
o-Operators-Frank Robotka Of the
agricultural economics division, Mime
sofa college of agriculture, has been Wis
iting the central offices of the Michigan
Potato Growers Exchange at Cadillac,
Michigan. In view of the organization
of a similar exchange in Minnesota,
the news which he brings back is of
great interest to potato growers here.
Present indicat ions are, he says, that
practically half Of all the potatoes grown
in Michigan in 1919 will be marketed
through the exchange. A report Of the
business transacted for the year closing
July l, 1919 shows that 2,l18 cars, or
approximately one-fourth Of the pota-
toes grown in Michigan in 1918 were
marketed through the exchange the first
crs 1892, 75l.3i. Twenty-one cents per
would have been paid without the ex-
change. Mr.. Robotka says that much
of the success Of the Michigan exchange
depends upon it's adherence to two prin-
ciples: First, that every grower gets ex-
actly what his potatoes sell for, less a
uniform stipulated fee charged by the
exchange and the local; and second,
that every grower contracts to market
his crop through the exchange, SO that
no outside competitor can get in and
break up the organization.

DEFEAT BEsMIDJI AND AITKIN ON !
LOCAL FLOOR, 1916 AND
61-2 !

Bemidji's high school basket ball
team was taken into camp by the Little
Falls high quint Friday evening at the
local school gymnasium and the follow
ing evening Aitkin high was vanquish
ell. The attendance at both games was
very good. This gives Little Falls
eight Victories in as many games.
The game with Bemidj,, the score Of
which Was 20 to l6, was fast and fur
ious and Little Falls played the best
game of the season that evening. The
team work was fine and time and
again they had their opponents baffled
with their clever plays. The guarding
of the locals when on the defense was
also first class, and as a result Bemidy
players were forced to shoot from the
middle of the floor very often, without
much success.
Sprandel pla yed a whirlwind game
for Little Falls, he alone getting as
many baskets as the entire Bemidji
team. He made four long shots which
were as pretty as one could wish to see.
Lipinski showed unusual form Friday
evening and he held Steckman, Bemid-
ii g crack center, to three baskets, nos
ing out two himself. Lewis was one Of
the main factors in the team work, and
he succeeded in caging the ball twice:
He and Bastien, as guards, did splendid
work ad Bastien spoiled a great many
crances of Bemidji men for baskets.
Levin played snappy game annd got
one basket.
Steckman, Bemidji's center, and Hig-
bee, got three field baskets each and
Stapleton got one. Highee was per-
haps the most active man on their team
and he was a hard man to watch.
Saturday evenings game with Ai1kin
was a walk-away for the locals. The
score was 81 to 2 and Atkins two
points were made on fouls, not a single
basket being made by them.
Fans came to this game expecting
to see fairly even game, in view OF
the fact that the locals had played
very hard game the previous evening,
but were disappointed. The visitors
played hard enough and were game to
the finish, but they were all new men
this year and consequently were lost
when pitted against such an aggrega-
ton as the locals.
Niche, Tanner and Ware were given
a chance to play in this game, Niche
replacing Lipinski, Tanner replacing
Levin and Ware taking Bastien's place:
Sprandel made nine baskets, Lipinski
and Niche got ten, Lewis, five, Levin
and Tanner five and Basticn and Ware
two. Lipinski also made one free
throw.
