HANSEN PREDICTS WORK ON
 ROAD WILL MOVE RAPIDLY

SOutnern dlvlSlOn, Who was Tn town on Saturday on his way back to the coast end of the Government after a brief visit to Fairbanks, reports that construction work is now on the home stretch, with most of the more difficult work completed or we'll under way. The closing of the gap, he says will be comparatively easy sailing, more particularly so because, for the first time since the big project was started, the Commis- sion is able to begin the working season with an ample supply O. everything needed to do the work, including cash. Supplies and equip ment have been distributed along the line from the south end, ana there is an abundance of labor available to rush the work to com pletion.
 MT. Hansen says that the work of erecting the big Hurricane bridge is ahead of schedule, with one pier completed and the other rapidly nearing completion, and with steel and steel workers on the ground. The bridge, MT. Hansen thinks, will be ready fer traffic before the first of September, and he is hopeful of getting his track-laying equlpmen. across the structure in advance of its completion, so that the work of closing the gap can be resumed at the earliest possible moment.
 Just how long it will take to close the gap, Mr. Hansen is not prepared to say, but he is not promising that it will kc done be- for, the first of the year. Much de- pends. he says, upon weather com ditions during the summer. With good luck he thinks the end of steel on the south end should be at Mile 313 by Christmas.
 There is considerable heavy work to be done just north of Hurricane Gulch-some cuts which will take time to finish--but the rest of the distance is comparatively easy go- ing.
 The steel for the Riley creek crossing is already being fabricated, Mr. Hansen says, and will be ready for delivery at the end of steel as soon as there is track over which to haul it, so there will be no great delay there in linking the Southern and Northern divisions. The material for the concrete work is al1eady on the ground, having been hauled from Healy during the winter.
 Mr. Hansen has been fairly ac- curate so far in his estimates of the work. He predicted months ago that steel would reach Hurricane on May 5 and when that day arrived the tracklayers were within few hundred feet of the gulch, with less than a days work ahead of them.
 MT. Hansen says that the class of labor coming North to work on the railroad this year is big improve ment over the workers available a year ago. And there appears to be a plentiful supply to draw upon. In fact, he says, there was time, just before the commencement of the marine strike, when it was diff cult to place the men as fast as they arrived at Anchorage. But ot all the workers with whom the engineer has had experience on the Alaska railroad, he considers the sourdough Alaskan most capable and willing is probobly the req son so many of the oldtimers have found steady work in the Southern division.
 Mir. Hansen came over the trail from the coast in company with Colonel Mears, and availed himself of the opportunity, while the colonel

ALL FRUIT GROWERS FRIENDS
Birds That Should Be Protected Are
Listed by the American For
estry Association.

The American Forestry association
has published the fact that cliff
swallow will eat 1000 flies, mosqui-
toes, wheat midgets, or beetles In a
day. The crops of four chlcka lees
showed 1923 eggs of the cankerworm.
Take notice, Mr.. Fruit Grower. A
quail killed In a Texas cotton field
had eaten 127 boil weevils. and prai-
RE chicken had over 300 of them in
IT'S crop. The bob white has been
known to eat 1876 different kinds. of
insects. It has been estimated that
this bird will consume an average Of
;75, 900 insects and 100000 weed seeds
In a year. House martins, swallows,
and swifts eat rose beetles, may bee
ties, cucumber beetles and house flies.
The quail eats Texas fever-carryIng
