SUPPORT TO BE ASKED
FROM TERRITORY FOR
MUSEUM AND LIBRARY

Plans for presenting the CLAIMS
of the Alaska Museum and Library
for support to the Territorial Legs
lature next spring were discussed
and adopted ait yesterdays meeting
of the Board of Managers OF the AL
aska Historical Society, according to
Gov. Scott C. Bone. ex-officio chair
man of the board, in whose office
the meeting was held. The recent
ruling by the Department OF Justice
that the Institution is strictly Ter
rttorial one shuts 1T off from receiv-
ing Federal aid, 1t was explained.
The expense Of keeping the insti-
tuition open during the past two years
has devolved largely on the society
and has proven a greater drain than
it's resources will stand. The So
Getty is a private corporation formed
under Territorial laws. The plan
of the Board of Managers calls for
an official organization created by
special act which the next legislature
will be asked to enact.
The board also PASSED a resolu-
ton extending vote OF thanks to
Mrs. Cecil H. Clegg for her work in
promoting benefit dance in Fair
banks for the Museum as part OF
the Alaska Day celebration at that
place. Almost $500 was realized from
that source and has been received
by the society.

CLAIMS SHARK FISHING WILL
SOON Be IMPORTANT INDUSTRY

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24-Shark
fishing can be made an important in
dustry in this country in the opinion
of officials of the Bureau of Fisher
les. There are many uses to which
various parts of the dreaded man
killers" can be put and at a profit
to the fishermen.
Former Secretary of Commerce
Redifled gave prominence during the
war days to shoes made of shark
skin and it is stated that leather
from this skin is as good as that
not alone to shoe manufacture, but
to the making of other Leather
goods.
Shark steaks also got some ad
vertisemeM during the war, but I'll
fisheries Bureau holds that the shark
flesh, dried or smoked, also can
bring a good price per ton as fer
tilizer. Shark liver oil, crude, also
is used commercially. while the body
OIL, prepared by boiling the flesh,
also is valuable.
The shark also carries a delicacy
for the Oriental. 1t is the fin, or
rather certain of the fins. These
are denuded of the flesh and dried.
Later the cartilaginous substance OF
the rays" of the fins are ssparat-
ed, soaked in water and cut up for
use in soup. In Hongkong it is stat
ed that the best restaurants charge
as much as $3.50 gold for a cup OF
soup made from the first class fins.
So the Bureau OF Fisheries says
Fishermen and those who kill sharks
are losing money when they fail to
make shark fins part of their bust
ness. Along the California coast it
has been the custom of fishermen
and sportsmen catching sharks to
kill them and turn the carcasses
adrift as useless.
The market price of the dried fins
of good size is as high as IS and
rs cents per pound, but range much
lower when the fins are carelessly
trimmed or cured. In the Philippines

the adult membership during the past
year was about 100000. th9largest
number of members enrolleA in any
similar organization in modern his
tory. There are 3.259 chapters ac-
lively at work
ITO maintain this number, and if
possible increase it by new mem
bers and volunteer workers, is the
object of the annual drive for mem
bership. A recital of only a few
cases will throw some light on the
work that is being done and must
continue to be carried on in caring
for men who were disabled in the
war and those who found themselves
breaking at the first approach of
strenuous labor as the result Of ex-
posture, nervous strain and physical
exhaustion incident to their service
In the war.
Individual Cases
ION July /, 1922. there were in the
hospitals of the army and navy 1l,0S7
men under treatment, who were re-
ceiving from the American Red Cross
attention and care. The government
cannot come in contact with individ-
ual cases. 1t must handle these men
in bulk and furnish them with what
is necessary in standard attention.
The many Things that make for in
dividual comfort must be done by
some agency that has time and the
machinery for working out the prob
lebs of the individual man. This is
the constant duty and privilege OF
the American Red Cross.
ION July l, 1929, there were PAST
men who had been discharged from
the army and navy service who were
receiving government treatment and
aid in federal health hospitals and
contract establishm throughout
the country These were men who
had been discharged from the service
and had afterwards came face to face
with disability. 1t is the opinion eff
men who are in a position to speak
with authority, that the number of
this class of cases will continue TO
be thrown on he disability list for
several years to come. The Surgeon
General has issued awarning that
should receive ne thoughtful consid-
GRAFTON and support Of every public
spirited American. He stated that
the peak of disabiityAamong ex-ser-
vice men would not be. reached be-
fore 1926.
Compensation and Care
The government is undertaking to
the best of it's ability, to discover
these disabled men and furnish them
with the compensation and care to
which they are entitled Through
It's charter organization the Red
Cross comes into contact with prac-
tically every community in the
United States and it's territories. In
this service it can find the individual
man, acquaint itself with his condi-

way by which he can be brought into
contact with government compensa-
tion and aid.

cASSOWARY BIRD WAYS

"Yes," said the Cassowary. ut Is

1t Is To secure cleanliness and
health for the cows that the modern
dairy barn has been designed. This
type Of barn was not made standard
overnight-it Is the result OF study
and experience. But now II Is ION
sidered as near ideal as can be. A
dairy barn Of this design Is shown In
the accompanying Illustration.
If the reader will closely study the
Illustration he will see that there are
almost continuous rows Of windows
IL the walls of the stable floor. These
windows are Of the proper height to
admit sunshine during b greater part
Of the day to the litter alleys In the
real Of the stalls. Sunshine Is a germ
killer; also II is a dispeller Of mois-
ture. The greater mount Of sun
shine that can be admitted the o
sanitary will be the stable.
On the ridge of the roof Of the
barn are suction ventilatOrs. These
connect with foul-air shafts that lead
from the stable. The action of the
air in passing the ventiiators creates
a c which draws the foul air
out of the stable, at the same time
drawing in fresh air. This continuous
circulation keeps the air of the stable
sweet and clean. which means healthy
COWS, and better milk.
The floor plans which accompany
the exterior view of the building show
how the interior of the barn Is ar
ranged. There are stalls for 43 cows,
each cow having at the manger a
bowl which is constantly filed with
fresh water. Cows consume enormous
quantities Of water by taking small
drinks frequently. A cow which is
watered three or four times a day
is not following her natural inclina-
tlon: she wants a little at a time and
that often.
The stable is so equipped that the
work of caring for the COWS may be
done With the smallest possible
