 IS BACK FROM
 TRIP TO EAST

Prof. c. c. Georgeson has returned to the coast from Washington, D. C., and is on his way back to his station in Sitka. Professor Georgeson is experiment stations. There is an area seven times as large as the state of New Jersey available in Alaska that will grow grain and another area of a like size suitable for grazing land.
 There are five stations, in Alaska, under the supervision of Professor Georgeson. Sitka station is used for experimenting in vegetables and fruits. Kodiak, on the island of that name, has a cattle and sheep farm, where the matter of furnishing meat animals for the north, is being stud jed Matanuska, Rampant and Fair banks stations are devoted to diver sified farming.
 In discussing the north the profes- sor is quoted as saying:
 Alaska will be furnishing all the flour needed for home consumption within very short time. Our ef- forts are at last beginning to show results and great interest is aroused not only in Alaska but in official Washington, where we have had to make our greatest fight for recogni- tion. As direct result of our experi- ments, wheat enough has been grown in the Panama valley to warrant the erection of 25-barrel capacity flour mill, and the product of the mill of chemistry at Washington, was of ficially declared to be the best qual- ity ever tested by the bureau.
 Our experiments have necessarily been handicapped by climatic condi- tions and transportation. Grains that 1 flourish on the Canadian prairies do Arctic Circle, so we fouad it neces- sary to import hardier varieties from l foreign countries which were used as the basis of our experiments. Our wheat is a hybrid which we devel- oped from the crossing of the Siber- ian spring and the Canadian Mar quis. It has the good qualities of each and is early enough to insure it's maturiay in attitudes as far north as 65 degrees, 30 minues. Seed from Rampant station has been distributed among the farmers of the Tanana valley, who raised a crop of 5000 bushels last year. During the com ing year it is expected Fairbanks will be supplied with local flour.
 "The original seed for our barley was brought from the Pamir noun, tains in India, and was grown at an elevation of 10000 feet above sea level This was crossed with the Canadian Champion barley with the result that grain with bearless heads five inches in length has been grown All grains produced ill the north have heavy kernels. We also have a hardy Siberian alfalfa that was seeded 10 years ago, and we are now in position to furnish seed to the farmers of the interior"

The Salvation Army conducts IS

The Army reports 32,738 converts as

The Salvation Army seeks those who

ANTI SUICIDE BUREAU.

For the past thirteen years Tho Sal
walton Army has waged an active war
against suicide.
The Anti Suicide Bureau was estab-
lished in London when the great sui
cidal mania swept through England
and in few months this little refuge
for the desperate and life weary
had raised 1925 men and 80 women
From that time on the Salvation
Army has found a definite field of
work in supplying the friendless with
friends, the heart-broken with comfort,
the bewildered and helpless with a
guide, those Historically maddened by
folly with a calming influence that
would steady them.
Overwork, i'll health, disappointment
in love, infiGelity of husband or wife,
sudden bereavement, drink, drugs and
crime as well as mental weakness and
melanchOlia are many of the numerous
causes that lead people to think SER
iously upon eXterminating life.
uI-HltHS Ol lne people WIN melan-
cholia have suicidal tendencies and
two-thirds of them actually attempt it.
1t is curious fact that it is seldom
among the underworld or lower classes
that suicide is frequent, but is mainly
among clergymen, doctors, actors,
inanciers, journalists, politicians,
chemists, architects, schoolmasters,
bank clerks, and tradesmen.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS
IN PHILIPPINES
HIGHLY PRAISED
Wood Forbes Mission Finds
Sentiment for Independ-
ence, But Many Want a
u. S. PrOteCtOrate.
tBy The Associated Press)

Manila, p. l., June 2S.--The
Wood-Forbes mission returned to
Manila today after a two weeks
visit to southern Luzon and ada
cent islands where more than a
hundred public meetings were held
at which all classes of citizens were
invited to express their views to
present complaints. Virtually all
speakers advocated independence
in some form but many believed
that the United States should es-
tablish q protectorate over the is
lands If independence were grant
ed.
The mission has now covered all
the provinces Of Luzon and most
of those adjacent islands which
are accessible. This territory con.
tains more than half the total pop
ulation of the Philippines. Mem
bers of the mission express much
satisfaction at the progress Of edu-
cation. One member remarked
that the public schools are the
brightest spots in the Philippines.
Both General Wood and w.
Cameron Forbes praised the work
of the schools but said the most
urgent need at the present was for
more American teachers. General
Wood was enthusiastic over the
work of the women's clubs in
many provinces but declared that
experienced nurses were badly
needed to teach the people how to
care for infants. General Wood
said that woman suffrage In the
United States was bringing excel
lent results. If 1t is SO there, ]
don't see why it shouldn't be in
the Philippines. / believe the en-
trance of women into public life
would be beneficial to the Philip
pines"
The mission will probably re-
main in Manila a week befort start

cation.

to deliver the principal speech at

NATIONS LEAGUE
TOO EXPENSIVE,
IS CLAIM MADE
Obligatory Use of Two
Languages and High Cost
of Living at Geneva Are
Given as the Reasons.

Geneva. Switzerland, June o.
Obligatory use of two languages,
French and English, in all its
transactions, and the high cost Of
living at the headquarters in &C.
neva are given by the special COM
mittee investigating the workings
OF the league of nations as an ex-
PLANTATION of what has been consid-
cred in some quarters as the excess
sive cost of the organization. The
expense for last year. as already
reported, was about s4,15O,OoO.
There can be no doubt" says
the committees report. "that,
rightly or wrongly. the league of
nations has the reputation of cost
ing too much" The report then
goes on to explain how the COM
plexity, diversity and novelty of
the work undertaken necessarily
costs heavily, particularly since it is
in the hands of a comparatively
young institution that lacks expert
ence.
The dual language of the league
requiring translation and duplicate
publication of all documents alone
accounts for one-third of the en-
tire expense. the report says, then
points out that the location of the
headquarters of the league in &C.
neva accounts for good deal of
the excessive outlay.
Since the main purpose of the
commission of inquiry is to suggest
every form of economy" the re-
port says, at feels bound to point
out that, at the moment. Geneva is
and so far as It is possible to
foresee will remain--a city in
which the cost of living is COM
paratively higher than in almost
airy eAtw in Europe. and where the
fate ri exchange is, at the moment
OF writing. the most disadvanta-
Ggous for the great majority of
states members of the league"
J'ha report suggests that were
,eamue headquarters located at
Fontainebleau, Turin or
Rs u, or almost anywhere else,
az immediate economy would be
effected that would be appreciated
by all members If the league and
particularly by those whose ex-
change is deprecated.
