ALASKA IS DESTINED
TO BE LAND OF HOMES

The national authorities at Wash.
ington have been accused very of.
ten during late years of bottling W
the tremendous potentialities In
Alaska away from the general pub
lie in order that the great coal de.
posits of the northern territory
shall not be made to yield pro.
duct that would come into compe.
tition with that produced by the
coal mine owners of the eastern
states.
It is interesting to know that des-
pite the hampering tactics Of ad.
ministrations at the national capital
irrespective Of party, that Alaskan
home building opportunity contin.
ues to create interest in the public
mind of this country, a fact that
assures the eventual conversion OF
this form of potentiality.
A recently issued government bull
letin has the following on agricul-
tural experiments carried on in what
popular conception believes to be
"the frozen north"
Near Fairbanks, 500 miles from
the coast and at the northern term
mus of the government railroad
that runs inland from Anchorage
is located one of the five experiment
stations maintained by the govern.
ment in the territory. Within the
Tanana valley in which Faisbanks
is situated, farm crops were pro-
duced last year of value of $780,
900, the acreage in crop being
1,499. It would probably be hard
to parallel this per acreage produc-
ton in most any of the so-called
farming districts of the states. II
is also shown that a splendid quail.
ity Of milling wheat is being pro-
.duced and flour mill in Fairbanks
manufactures for home consumption
while potatoes, many forms Of veg.
etables, small fruits and other farm
crops were produced in satisfac-
tory manner.

CHEAP FOOD
FOR FOWLS

Sometimes it is economical to
procure cheap foods, such as dam.
aged grain or wheat screenings
when they can be bought at a low
price; but it never pays to attempt
to keep poultry by the use Of dam
aged or musty food as a constant
diet. Fowls are more fastidious in
regard to their diet than may be
supposed and they will frequently
remain hungry for a long time be-
fore they will eat food that is not
satisfactory.
Even when wholesome corn is
given constantly there arrives q
time when the hens will take no
notice of it if they can get other
foods exclusively. The object in
feeding fowls is to procure eggs
and the best food to be had will
not be expensive if the hens are
laying. But if they are producing
no eggs, then any kind Of grain
is expensive, more especially the
kinds that are not relished.-Farm

national banks since the system
was established. There were thir.
ty-seven failures, the aggregate liza.
bilities being $23,677,367. In add.
ton three national banks wen,
through receiverships, but solvency
being shown they resumed business
In the panic Of 1898 the failures
numbered sixty-five and in 1897
there were thirty-eight.
The showing for last year is by
no means a bad one for the ma.
tional banks, considering that the
number in the system is now doub-
lie what it was in 1893. State and
private banks were hit harder by
the general depression, 1856 sue
cumbing to the. stringency Of the
period, with liabilities aggregatine
ninety-six million dollars, closed
down permanently, and 1873 others
went through receiverships. One
hundred and thirty-two Of these
were in the south, and 142 were
in states where deposit guaranty
laws are in effect.

SETS NEW RECORD
FOR COAST FLIGHT

Setting what is declared to be a
new speed record between Salt Lake
City and San Francisco, A. c. Mel
son, superintendent of the western
division of the air mail service made
the trip by airplane in six hours
and eighteen minutes actual flying
time on Monday. Elapsed time for
the trip which included stops and
changing planes both at Elko and
Reno was six hours and forty-nine
minutes, says the Gazette.
With Pilot Scott operating the
plane they hoped off at Salt Lake
at 1854 a. m. From Elko to Reno
the plane was in charge Of Pilot
Mouton and from Reno Pilot Wins
low flew the machine landing at
Francisco at las p. m.
Accompanied by w. E. LaFollette
assistant superintendent, Mr.. Mel
son returned to Reno this morning
by train to make his regular month
ly inspection of the flying fields.
There are now twenty-one planes
in service on the western division
which extends from Rock Springs,
Wyo., to San Francisco and thirteen
pilots are employed. All Of the
planes are in good condition, &C
cording to Mr.. Nelson, and the d.
vision is making a very satisfac-
tory record, despite the innumera-
BILE storms of the past three months.

better he may acknowledge the

So it is with mingled feelings
that one now reads in dispatches
from Constantinople how the war
and economic conditions since have
affected the women of Turkey, who
are said now, instead of anguish
ing in harems, identifying them
selves and feeding on Turkish de-
light, to have thrown away the
wells, donned shirtwaists and short
skirts and to be serving customers
in their capacity as saleswomen in
stores, as telephone girls, as cash.
iers, janitors, street sweepers, and
even as street car conductors.
The need of women as nurses
in the Turkish army is said to have
been the means of first opening
the harem door for women of Tur-
key, and once opened, it seems to
be open for good. Turkish men
are no longer able Sto support a
variety of wives as they used to
do and SO more and more women
are obliged to earn their living.
Only among the poor and the
women on farms do conditions for
the women of Turkey remain much
as before for the poor women as
well as the women in the country
have always worked as they have
done in all countries.

MAKING AMERICANS
PAY HEAVILY

The tide of travel from America
to Europe this summer, it is gener.
ally predicted, will be the heavies,
for many years. Europeans know
this and are prepared accordingly
The tourist and especially the Amer.
lean variety, is fair game for hotel
men and shop keepers the world
over. He expects to pay well for
venturing from home. But the bust
ness of exploiting the strangers
within the gates ought to stop there.
Reports are heard Of proposed
taxes on tourists, of countries that
plan to make the visitors pay di-
rectly for the privilege at the rate
of so much per day, instead Of try
ing to induce them to remain as
long as possible. There is talk of
taxes, too, on businesses that cater
especially to travellers and of course
these will be passed along to the
ultimate consumer.
That the depreciation of curren-
cy of continental countries will en-
able visitors to live luxuriously at
low expense is the most common ex-
cuse for these tourist taxes. But
If reports are true in many instances
prices have been raised according
ly. No matter what happens the
big crowds are said to be going to
Europe this year. But if they return
with big tales of extortion, which
is certain to happen, there will be
fewer travelling across the pond
next year.

TURNING OF
THE TIDE

Signs have been multiplying to
show that business is improving at
a gait that will reach normal much
sooner than some persons antici-
pate. First came a gradual but
continued improvement in the steel
industry, followed closely by an
improvement in the stock markets.
In this has been carried many Sc
curities to figures almost double
those of six months ago.
Now comes announcement by the
interstate commerce commission
that net railway earnings for Feb
ruary were more than $4,000, 900,
compared to a deficit of more than
$6,000,000 in February, 1921, and
statement by Herbert Hoover, sec
rotary of commerce, that exports
during February were greater, ev-
en- at reduced valuations, than for
several months.
The railroad figures are Of par
ticular interest because they show
that both passenger and freight
rate reductions are not SO far off
and reductions of that kind will
speed business recovery generally.
The Esch-Cummins law provision
guaranteeing railroads return of
six per cent having expired, the
interstate commerce commission can
now set any rail rates it sees fit to
although it will probably contin-
ue to base them on return of ap-
proximately six per cent on the
investment.
While it is unlikely that American
world trade will strike its. gait un-
til European economic adjustment
whether by the Genoa conference
or others to follow, only incon-
ceivable laundering at Genoa or
thereafter can check the improve
ment already started. The turn
ing Of the tide is sample of what
might be and ought to be, if the
politicians abroad have sense en-
ough to be statesmen.

BARLEY USED FOR BREWING
NOW MARKETED FOR FEED

Barley as hog feed is coming
on the markets in increasing
amounts, probably for the reason
that its use for brewing purposes
has fallen off and the hog industry
has been moving into the barley
producing districts. The United
States department of agriculture
has taken up the problem of finding
out the relative feeding value Of
light and heavy barley. There are
no federal standards for this grain,
but light and heavy grades are re-
cognized on the market.
During 1921 the department made
feeding tests of the two grades and
the trials will be repeated. Not
enough data are available yet for
definite conclusions as to the relative
merits Of light and heavy grain,
but the results have shown that
high-class barley has a feeding value
only slightly lower than good shelled
corn. When these tests are COM
pleted the department will have
additional information on the
methods of feeding barley, whether
or not it should be feed whole,
rolled, dry, or soaked.
1t is expected that barley will be
used much more in the future as a
hog feed especially when there is
q scarcity Of corn and when barley
is comparatively cheap.

WHY ARE
MEN IDLE

You know what 'tax-exempt'
securities are? They are state and
municipal bonds issued to the tune
Of thousands Of millions. They pay
the investor as high as six per cent
interest and more, and the owner
pays not cent of income tax or
these investments.
Naturally, men prefer those ex-
empt bonds, paying no income tax
or other tax, bearing no risk, to
any investment in industry. Nc
wonder an expert tells you that
more money is invested in tax
exempt securities than in the ma
TONS business.
That explains why so many fac
tories are closed, SO many men out
of work in the United States. Why
should a man risk his capital, hir-
ing men in industry, to make 10
or Is per cent profit, and give half
or three-quarters of it back to the
government in income tax, when he
can buy perfectly safe bonds, draw
his five or six per cent until the
tax storm blows over, and pay the
government not one cent?
President Harding has tried, but
without success thus far, to do away
with this system that enables ac-
cumulated wealth to dodge its share
OF the national burden, and that
keeps men out Of work.-The Man.

BIC EATERS GET
KIDNEY TROUBLE

If your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you.

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
! out. they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish, the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment or ,-ou are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your pnar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the acid
OF grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer is a source of irritation, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot IN
