Old Indian Trail Followed Out By Rough-neck Prospectors Opens Attractive Territory

At the instigation of the Forestry Department of Alaska, Alex Gala gher and Jack Mcleod have been in yestigating an old pass used by the Indians from Portland Canal to the Chickamin river. The trail starts IS miles down the canal, and reaches the Chickamin without en- countering glaciers, the highest point reached being at an elevation of about 2,600 feet.
 Eight miles from tidewater the formation changes, the coast batho- lith being passed through and a mineral-bearing belt entered. On account of the rain and fog ble boys spent only limited amount of time on the trip, but they report having crossed number of likely looking veins before the summit 12 miles from the canal, was reached.

OF course, naturally Cuban planters
as well as American planters are
doing their utmost to get the highest
price for their sugar
With a IA pereent beet under the
sliding scale the grower would be paid
S6.15 per ton based on six per cent
sugar. Now under our present tariff
I am firmly of the opinion that the
price of sugar will not go below seven
cents, which would bring IA per
cent beet up to Sis, while if the
price of sugar remained at the pres
ent price, nine cents, then the grower
of IA per cent beet would receive
about 1928 for his beets Now we
must not overlook the fact that with
an ordinary season, which we hope
and expect. a Is percent beet should
be our goal. as last years crop aver
aged Is. and in that event would
bring about $40 per ton if sugar net
ted the companies nine cents. 1t all
depends on the net price for sugar
received by the company for the
years output. or the higher the sugar
content and prices of sugar the more
you will receive for your beets.
The flat rate is based upon the pos
sible sale price of manufactured sugar
in Cuba. our chief competitor. This
factor must be considered by our
companies in offering flat rate.
which rate naturally would be lower

than the prospective sliding scale as
the companies must be in position
to meet competition or fail.
Surely we can think Of no other
crop that has the bright prospects as
has this one for the coming year, and
am firmly of the opinion that the
farmer who fails to grow beets will
make a serious mistake from finan-
cial standpoint, in fact, it appears to
me that the beet sugar crop for this
year has the brightest prospects for
profits of any other crop grown in the
valley, and look for it to be the prin-
cipal mortgage litter produced in the
valley, even more so than it has been
in the past. 1t brings the cash.

While I would not recommend that
farmers plant too large acreage of

After most careful consideration
of the subject most heartily endorse
the sliding scale contract based upon
the sugar price and sugar content

WHAT IS A PIG WORTH?

1t costs something to feed SOW for
a year and breed her for one or two
litters, this cost, of course, varying
with number of factors. Whatever
this cost is it requires a certain num-
ber of>the pigs she raises to weaving
time to pay it and it is only the pigs
raised in excess of this number on
which the grower has any chance to
realize a profit. On number of
farms where careful account of all
costs entering into the production OF
weaner pigs has been made, 1t was
found that it cost from $2.73 to $10.16
to raise a pig to weaving time. With
out doubt one of the biggest factors
in determining this cost is the num-
ber farrowed.
The inference is that after one has
put considerable expense into brood
sows, boar, feed, equipment, etc, it
is worth while that all reasonable
care be given the SOW at farrowing
time and during the time she is suck
ling the pigs, SO that whatever num-
ber Of pigs she farrows she may
bring the maximum number to wean-
turn a possible profit to an actual
loss.
Here are a few points which are
often overlooked:
l. The pregnant SOW should be fed
for the proper development of the
pigs Heavy rations of potatoes or
other feeds poor in protein and min
eral are likely to result in weak pigs
and poor milk flow. There is also
more danger that sows so fed will eat
their pigs.
2. The SOW should be placed by
herself where she is to farrow a few
days before farrowing time. and as a
rule her feed, II she has been getting
grain, should be reduced.
3. Suitable, dry. clean. shelter
should be provided Bedding should
be fine and limited to prevent pigs
becoming covered. A guard rail
around the pen-a pole or 2x4 about
eight inches from the floor and six
inches from the wall will save a great
many pigs.
4. Personal attention during far
rowing. especially in cold weather US
uahs Tie Saving OIL ITOIn one
pig to the whole litter. and breeders
who are not willing to make an oc-
casional night trip to the hog house
or even live with the sows during
narrowing time should not expect the
same results as the man that does
these things.
5. After farrowing the SOW should
be allowed nothing but water for "a
hours or more, and the increase in
feed should be gradual. Any appear
ance OF securing among the pigs is
signal for reducing the sow's feed.
6. The pigs should be kept clean
Filthy pens cause unthrifty pigs and
unthrifty pigs are seldom profitable.
Z. Exercise and sunshine are al
most as important for growing pigs
as proper food and fresh air.
s. Whole oats placed in clean plac-
es where the pigs can get them, ac-
cess to pasture, etc, will reduce the
hazards at weaving time which should
not be until the pigs are eight weeks
old.
Q. All male pigs not to be kept
for breeding purposes should be cas-
trated a week or more before wean-
ing.
Following the above suggestions
may not make a sow a moneymaker.
but II she is the right kind of a SOW
to begin with and bred to the right
kind Of boar, It will give her a
chance.

paper hangers, plumbers, steam fit ters, etc, should commence their work on the minute. To the builder the 1 big proposition was organization and cooperation, but 1t was enthusiastical- ly obtained and in some instances the men were on the job 70 hours with only 30 minutes lunch time. With out the class of building mechanics that Hartford has it would have been impossible to have produced this fine specimen of industry.
 The builders, Wise & Upson, asked the cooperation of the different sub contractors and secured their promise that they would lend every assistance Then they laid out the building pro- gram and then the remaining part of the problem was to get the workmen They called on the Organized Build ing Trades of the city and were given hearty assurance that everything pos sible would be done to put Hartford in the front rank of building accom- plishment. The results of their efforts should be viewed by every one inter ested in high-class workmanship in a model home.
 Schedule of progress was made which allowed for the completion of lne HOuSc OuHudy HlSHl, ApTl l. About midnight, Saturday night, when the mechanics were so tired from their efforts that they began to plain ly show fatigue, the question was asked:

 And this was the unanimous an swer:
 We have got this far; we will stay and finish it."

Steel's Philanthropy Is Charged to Public

New York, April I9.-After the steel trust secured all the publicity possible for it's philanthropy in rais- ing wages four cents for unskilled la bor, 1t raised the price of steel $I.75 ton.
 The wage increase to 40 cents an hour was spread on the first page Of daily newspapers, but the increase in steel costs was printed on the mar ket page.
 Defenders of the steel trust explain that the wage increase marks the ap- pearance of competition from outdoor projects for the available supply of unskilled workers. This would in dicate that the Tabor supply" is not yet exhausted, though contrary claims have been made by advocates of free immigration.
 Last year the steel trust made a clear profit of nearly $4o,ooo,ooo, after interest and charges were met It has been forced to raise wages from :36 cents an hour to 40 cents, but to be sure this does not interfere with it's profit, steel prices are raised $I.z5 a ton.
