places of the two long trenches in the center of the creek. They were tackling this last bit of earth from each side now.
 Accosting Bettles, his friend said: "Well, how goes it Bettles? see you are out of luck again, eh?"
 "Oh, no"
 NO? How do you make that out ?"
 "Well-it's in there" he said, in- dicating the, narrow strip of ground, "it can't get away"
 Many old-timers in Ketchikan know Bettles, and many yarns concerning him. He magried "one of the Cor. coran girls of the well known Cor. coran family of the Yukon, though his wife is living no more. He is a thorough, bred-in- the bone Alaskan and his parting words as the steam CT was getting ready to take him back to the country he likes so well | were: 'I tried life in the states, but you know-once a fellow has been living in Alaska he can't exist very long outside of it. I had to come back"

SURPRISE PARTY AT
 EXPERIMENT STATION

The residents of Rampant staged a surprise party in honor of MT. and Mrs. Gasser, at the agricultural ex- pertinent station.
 The party was in the nature of an appreciation by the people of Ram part for the work which has been performed by Superintendent Gasser, and the part that the couple has played in the social life of the community during the fourteen years in which MT. and Mrs. Gasser have resided at Rampant As tokens of their esteem, the townspeople pre- sented Mrs. Gasser with nugget chain and the superintendent with q gold watch.
 Superintendent George w. Gasser of the Rampant agricultural expert ment station, will leave Rampant for Fairbanks early in June, when he will take charge of the Fairbanks station, owing to the fact that Super intendent Snodgrass is retiring from the service to engage in farming commercially; and MT. Hahn former ly of Fairbanks, has arrived to re- lieve MT. Gasser at Rampant. Mrs. Gasser will leave for the states on one of the first boats, intending to be back to the north early in the summer to join MT Gasser at the Fairbanks station.

MILK FROM INFESTED COWS
Orphan Asylum at New Haven, Conn.,,
Provided With Product of Tuber-
cular Animals.

A glaring instance of the dangers OF
marketing milk from INFESTED tubercu-
lous COWS was recently reported to the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture by one Of its field men engaged in
Observation-Disclosures work.
At the request Of the meat inspec-
tor of New Haven, Conn.,, the federal
EXPERT examined the carcass Of a COW
recently killed at a local slaughter
house. The animal showed extensive
LESSONS Of tuberculosis in the lungs,
liver, and other parts Of the body. In
vestigation revealed that the COW had
been sent to the city by a dairyman
who was delivering the milk from his
herd to an orphan asylum of the city,
and also that the milk was n pas
teurized.
Upon further Investigation, in which
the state authorities at Hartford CO.
operated, a test of the entire herd was
made. OF a total of % cattle, % re-
acted to the tuberculin test.

GOOD HIGHWAYS IN JAMAICA
Island in British West Indies Is Awak.
ening to a Realization OF
Improved Roads.

The island of Jamaica, in the Brit
ish West Indies, rich in natural re-
sources and active in trade, is awak-
ening to a realization Of the import
ance of good roads, The advent of
the automobile has had much to do
in the development of an agitation
which now promises valuable results.
The system of modern highways
which it is proposed to build Will
mean the speedy development of parts
of the island now more or less neg
lected because of their practical in
accessibility. Completion Of a radial
system of good roads would undoubt-
edly be followed by a general adop-
ton of the motortruck for conveying
the products to the sea. The in
creased speed and efficiency thus ac-
CURED would tend to promote larger
production, and thereby increase the
wealth Of this already Industrious is
land.

MATERIAL FOR ROAD MAKING
Careful Study of Amount and charae.

Professor House Of the Colorado Ag-
ricultural college is one of the best
known engineers in Colorado. He has
been head of the civil engineer depart

and has always been in close contact
with the affairs of the state. In speak

says:
"a great deal of agitation is being
carried on at the present time, con-
corning the construction of concrete
roads for Colorado. That some Of our
roads should be paved in this way.
there is no question, but 1 think we
should carefully guard against over
doing the matter. In order to be justi-
