ALASKA IS CONSIDERED BY
 PRESIDENT AND CABINET I

WASHINGTON, D. C., Mar 15- Reconstruction policies of the new administration were considered at a meeting of President Harding and the members of his cabinet today, Alaska coming in for particular con- sideration.
 President Harding has recently re- ceived much information concerning the territory and its affairs, and the feeling, it is understood, has been manifest that the situation which has developed regarding conditions there requires review and probably action to restore it to a normal state. The development of the natural resources in Alaska and elsewhere, halted on account of the war, is among the policies which the President and his official family want to resume.

COURT DENIES MOTION TO
 DELAY BASEBALL HEARING

CHICAGO, March 15-As predict ed several days ago, the state tried to get postponement of the trial of indicted White Sox players when the case was called yesterday. But the court promptly denied the mo- tion and ordered another hearing for Thursday, at which time, it is believed, the date of the trial will be definitely fixed. ..--:. .
 In appealing for delay, the states attorney said that he had learned that Cicotte, Williams and Jackson, who confessed to the grand jury, are not now available as witnesses and consequently the state is unable to obtain convictions at present. An extension of time is needed, it is claimed, to gather additional evi- dence.

The show will take place at the Coliseum on Satur- day night, and will be followed by an informal dance at Union hall. also to be given under the auspices of the Nenana Moose.
 The excursion train will leave Fairbanks Saturday morning and up- on arrival at Nenana, the members of the minstrel troupe will stage a big parade, which will be featured by several surprises. An orchestra is coming along to provide the music for the show and for the dance.
 A letter received from Manager R. A. Darling today, it is stated that many are coming from here and I wish you would reserve about 30 seats for wives of performers, and one middle seat in the front TOW for Judge L. T. Erwin, who missed the show here. We will bring down possibly 75 in addition to the troupe ...
 The Moose will have charge of the entire celebration, and they intend that it will be one of the most en- joyable gatherings in the history of the town. It is not money-making venture, all that the Moose desire being to realize sufficient to pay the cost of the excursion and en- tertainments. The Coliseum has been rented outright for the night and the Moose will have full charge of everything in connection with the show ....~.. -.*... .*-..-.....-.
 Messrs. Darling and J. A. Fair born will arrive in Nenana on Friday to arrange the stage settings and other details in connection with the show.

 The dance which is to follow the show will not be hard times affair, as origonally intended.

NATIVE FARM WEEDS
SURVEY Set on Foot BY Depart
ment Of Agriculture.
New Varieties Constantly Arriving II
Foreign Seed and Through othsr
sourcss-Entirs Farms Aban.
donsd 20 Pests. .sis

prepared by. the United States Depast.
ment Of Agrculture.)
The United States Department Of
Agriculture has set on foot what. il
intended to be The most comprehen-
sive weed survey ever undertaken. Up
to date comparatively little is rkn0wn
Of American farm weeds. They are
classified in botanies and herbariums,
but there are no definite data In re-
lard to their spread; the prevalence
OF any particular weed in any local
ity; the amount Of annual damage;
new weeds, increase Of old species:
Or local methods Of eradication.
To supply the need for such data
the section Of weed Investigations has
sent QUESTIONABLE to all the more
than 1000 county agents Of the de.
partment. This QUESTIONABLE asks the
names of five worst weeds In each
county, in order Of their Importance /;
Vie methods, IL any, used by farmers
to combat these weeds; and what
weed problems are especially serious
III any particular county. .s slss
Comparatively few native American
weeds have given farmers serious
trouble, but new varieties are con-
stantly arriving In foreign seed and
through other sources. Some Of these
have become such pests that entire
farms have been abandoned to them.
A canvass Of 200 representative east
ern farmers showed that an average
of % days year is spent at the busi-
est season in trying to get rid of
weeds. Investigations by the bureau
of plant industry over a number OF
years are taken to indicate that Gull
tivation after the seeded is prepared
has no other use than to destroy
weeds. If this theory proves correct;
1t will add more heavily still to the
annual expense chargeable to weeds.
II is the purpose of the department
to use the projected survey as basis
of operation in directing widespread
war on the weeds now here, or the i'm.
portation Of any new ones, and to
seek any local eradication methotAs;
which may be worth general dissem-
ination.
