BIG BARN ERECTED AT
 EXPERIMENT FARM

Among the improvements at the Matanuska experimental farm that are rapidly progressing is a new modern barn, L-shape, with one wing 36x90 feet and another 34x72 feet. The former will be used for horses, harness room, grain bins and hay now and the latter for housing the cattle, including calf pens, milk ing room and feed stalls. The entire cattle section will be floored with concrete, with drains leading to a concrete basin south of the building which will also serve as storage reservoir for manure. There will be an overhead carrier from the silo and feed bins to the cattle section. One side of the yard will be inclosed with sheds for implements and shel- ter for outdoor cattle. Frederick Raer,Nsuperintendent of the farm, is chief carpenter on the job and is making an excellent showing. The barn will be ready for the winter.

The first speciments of Yak ever in Yukon arrived in Dawson recently 1 on the steamer Casca, and left there
 on the Yukon shortly after They 1 belong to the American government and are being shipped to the gov ernmental station at Fairbanks. They are shipped in large crates. The animals are about the size of a COW, but are black and stocky with long dark hair. The Yak is a native of the cold regions in the high attitudes of Tibet, where altitude has enured them to the cold as the northern attitudes do the musk oxen of the Arctic.
 Recent arrivals from the Glacier and Miller mining districts, sixty miles west from Dawson, bring news of vast herd of caribou on the range of high hills in that region. The car ibou are right along the summer road and are understood to be as close to Dawson as the Forty-one mile house, forty-one miles out from Dawson, and conducted by Joe Roshon. The carl bOu are said to be there by tens of thousands and like sheep in all dir ections. It is understood practically none were killed excepting a few which are being taken by the Indians

YOUTH KILLED BY EXPLOSION
 OF DYNAMITE

he explosion of charge of more than 10 tons of T. N T. in connect ion with the grading operations which are in progress in Nenana canyon caused the death of Dick Healey youthful timekeeper in the employ of the Alaska road commission, with headquarters at Camp Healey, at the end of steel south of Nenana. The young man, eager to obtain picture of the "shot" approached too close to the mined mountainside and was lit terally moved down by the avalanche of rock which was hurled across the Nenana river by the force of the eX plosion. His skull was fractured his hip broken, his legs shattered, and his body otherwise mutilated by the shower of rocks from the blast. He lived only short time after receiv ing the injuries.
 The accident occurred on the Rest ley residency, about two miles beyond the end of steel, and within a very short time afterward, Chief Surgeon T. O. Lake, of the government hos pital, was speeding out the line to at tend to the injured man. A speeder was used for the trip to the crossing and another speeder on the south side of the river took the surgeon to the end of steel, whence saddle horse took him quickly to the scene of the accident. There was little, if anything that could be done to save the young mans life and within fifteen minutes after Dr. Lake arrived he was dead.
 While preparations were being made to set the blast off, Healey was seen approaching the danger zone with his camera and he was warned three times to retire to a safe place, the shot being held up until it was thought that no one remained sufficiently close enough to be in- iured. Healey, in the meantime had

A large barn erected at Mile 429 sometime ago by the Alaska engineer ing commission and sold very recent ly to Mail Carrier Allard, was com- pletely destroyed by fire, together with a bunkcar belonging to the gov ernment, which stood close by. The origin of the fire is shrouded in mys- tery, but the fact that the barn was unoccupied at the time and was at a distance from the track, encourages the belief that the case is one de- manding Investigation Allard closed the deal for the barn several days ago, paying deposit to the commis- sion to bind the. bargain It was his intention to take possession immed- lately.

Temtor Corn and Fruit Products

Question-wiN you please give mo your
opinion as to continued dividend payne nts
and Information OF past dividend pay
ments and conditions Of business OF Temtor
Corn and Fruit Glass + and WHY'S Over
land preferred?-L. NJ r.
Answer>The Temtor Corn and Fruit
Products Company, formed in October,
1919, to acquire the Best -Clymer Com
pany and to purchase the Granite City
UND Corn Syrup plant of the Corn
Products Refining Company, estimated
earnings for 1920 at 81 ,663 900. This
was after taxes, but before dividends
The company arranged to rent the
Granite City plant to the Corn Prod
ucts Company until October /, 1920,
for a rental of 81 ,245, 600 per annum
After that date the company was to
operate it. The initial dividend Of 81
share on the 197,500 shares Class A
and the $3.50 shares Class stocks
was declared January s, 1920. Since
then regular quarterly dividends of 81
a share have been paid. We cannot
express an opinion of the compapys
future because there has not yet been
published a statement of earnings for
the past year. WHY'S Overland pre-
ferred. has received dividends since
April l, 1916. on the present issue Of
preferred stocks. We regard the stock
as safe, as earnings have shown ample
margin over dividend requirements.
