 Working with Enthusiasm.
 Teachers and pupils in all con- munities visited are entering with enthusiasm upon the program of work for the year which includes, in part, increased attention to physical education, higher standards of schol- arship in both elementary and high schools, the elimination of waste through more regular attendance increased use of school buildings to the end that the school may be in reality the community capitol, the i further medication in the minds oi the pupils of the principlcs laid down in the American system of 1 government, and a more complete understanding of the duties and re- l. SVOUSlDiIlllpS tl d SOUu CltlZeH.
 Public Supports Work.
 One of the, most encouraging faa- lures of the work in practically all communities visited is to be found lin the spirit which animates the general public. Alaskans as a whole are interested in the school and it's advancement and are desirous of cooperating in everything that brings greater opportunities to chill dren. Public opinion has practically eliminated the individual Who is carpingly critical as a means of at tracting attention to himself or for the purpose of gratifying personal grievances, real or imaginary. The main function of the school execu- tive is recognized as that of eff eicntly conducting the work of the school and of teachers that of giy- ing god and wholesome instruction to pupils.
 College Outlook Good.
 President Charles E. Bunnell and the Trustees of the Alaska Agricul- tural College and School of Mines are exceedingly optimistic regarding the future of the institution. The opening of the college without doubt will be great impetus to education in Alaska. While so situated that it is most readily accessible to those residing in the Interior and along the route of the Government Rail road. the college is nevertheless nearer to a large part of Alaska S population than any other higher institution of learning. For this req son. as well as for the standpoint of the desire of Alaskans to develop Alaska institutions. it should attract it's share of those desiring work along the lines offered

Legion officials charge that the sharks lend money to veterans on their discharge certificates at exhor- bitant rates of interest in the expecta- tion of recovering their principal when the state bonus is paid. The bill SUD- ported by the Legion would make it illegal for any bonus to be assigned to other than the soldier himself with the exception of state and local dis ability funds.

there seems to be nothing in sight to bring about higher range until there is radical change in the news and increased speculative trading on the part of the public. The demand is relatively slow and there is such large amount of feeding grains in this country, that it is surprising that the Corn and Oats markets have held up as long as they have.
 CROP PROSPECTS-The area sown to Winter Wheat in the United States last fall, for the 1921 crop, is estimated at 4O,6O5,OOO acres, which is 2. 8 per cent less tha nthe revised area shown for the previous year. The weather was mild over most of the Northern districts until the mid dle of December, but considerably colder during the last half of the month. The ground was generally bare of snow in the Winter Wheat country, when the weather was mild, and comparatively uniform in temper ature, and very little damage has been reported as a result of thawing and freezing.
 Wheat is of good color generally, and is being pastured in Kansas. Soil moisture in some sections, however, has been insufficient for the best growth. The rainfall has been com paratively light in the Ohio and Mis- sissippi Valleys, and above the season. al average in California, Oregon and Washington.
 Weather conditions in California and adjoining States have been gen. erally favorable during thhe past month to the growth of fall sown grain, and the drenching rains which have covered every section of Califor- mia have not only aided the growth of crops but filled reservoirs. This, combined with heavy we'll packed snow falls in the mountains, indicates an adequate supply of water for ir- rigation the coming season, and will doubtless prevent a recurrence during 1921 of the shortage of hydro-electric power which occurred in the summer of 1920.
 COTTON Disappointing cables Monthly DC Box---GAL THREE from Liverpool and generally pessi- mistic news from Europe offset the more optimistic domestic news and finally brought about a reaction of about two cents per pound in our mar ket the past month. Manchester re- ported the Cotton Yarn market as disappointing, and the outlook for trade with China and India was poor except in light weight fabrics. Ex- ports to Europe were large, but new business was said to be slow. Mills all through the South were reported as running at full time with orders coming in at advanced prices and albor had accepted the gen eral cut in wages.
 Spot Cotton was in better demand at higher prices-but, when Liverpool continued to send lower prices daily, holders, who had profits, became alarmed and sold their Cotton.
 Then, too, the break in the Janu- ary option was also factor that un- settled the list. This option has ad- vanced to a point where it was pro- fitable to buy the Cotton in the South and ship to New York to be delivered o ncontract.
 The Cotton market has had a fair advance from it's recent low level- and, while conditions generally in the textile trade have shown an improve ment technically, the market was in weak position, as the short interest had been eliminated and the market was in no condition to withstand any heavy selling pressure.
