He urged that when leases of timber lands for pulp and paper manufac- turing are made the stipulated prices should prevail for the life of the lease.
 Land Office Needed
 Henry Roden and Postmaster H. L. Faulkner urged the need for land office, concessions in the pulp and paper contracts. for assay offices for the benefit of prospectors and other matters. Mr Roden declared that the people should get down to con crete matters when talking about what the Government should do for Alaska. and not wall about things in general. He declared that a great deal had been said about the numer- ous bureau operating in the Terri tory but he did not see that it would help so much if they were changed, for there would have to be heads of departments and branches of the pub lie service even if all were under one head that would amount to about the same thing.

COLDSTEIN BUYS
 BUILDING SITE
Mayor Purchases Big Vacant Business Lot from AL
 aska Steamship Co.

Purchase of the vacant lot on Front Street between the Alaska Soda Bottling Works and the Olym- pic Cigars. Store buildingn by |. Goldatein from the Alaska Steam ship Co.,, was made public today, the deal having been completed carly this week. The property, which has a 9Dsfoot front on Front Street and is 800 feet deep, extend ing to the Admiral Lines prop erty, is regarded as one of the most valuable building sites in the busi- ness district.
 For the present the site will be occupied by six individual garages. Construction on this building has started, and it. will be completed within a short time. All of the space in the Building has been rented in advance, MT. Goldstein said. n4
 The garage. building is not being erected as a per rmanent structure, he added. He expfesed confidence that the growth of the town within the next three or four years would jus tify the construction of q substan- tial business or office building. "I didn't buy 1t for the purpose it Is now being utilized for but as an investment, he declared. The finan- cial consideration involved in the transfer was not made public.

The News has done what it could to further the inter- osts of Nenana and Interior Alaska generally and the editor is loath now to leave the many loyal friends who, by their generous support dur- ing the long period of publication, have made it possible for The News to be of service to the community. But The News plant, which is among the largest and best ip the Territory is larger than need be for the pub lication of a paper at Nenana and the editor feels that the opportunity for it's full equipment is one not to be overlooked; and besides; the edi- tor needs a rest and suspehsion of publication seems to be the only way to get it. In this connection, it might interest rcaders of The News to know the editcrs has been in the North continuously since 1898 and the temptation now to pay brief visit to the States after all these years may partly. account for the acceptance of the offer which will result in the removal of The News plant tc Anchorage. How long the editor will remain in the States and what he will do remains for the future to disclose. It is al- most safe prediction, However, that he will return to Alaska, just like the majority of other, oldtimers who have gone to the States"

 Scientific investigations have shown that a warm ocean. current from the south is encircling the Islands, and that great quantities of strange fish scales have been washed ashore. These scales belong to type of oc- topus that inhabits western Euro pean waters, but hitherto has not been known to exist north of the coast of England

Valley Adaptable to
| Poultry Industry,
Good Feeding

Statistics closely studied indicate
that the poultry industry of Imper-
ial Valley should be a source of
constant revenue. Past records
show that especially around tax
paying time that the gathering up
on the ranches of the feathered b.
peds and biddies have materially
assisted the valley rancher to meet
this semi-annual call for funds. The
impression has existed more or less
in the minds of outside interests
that Imperial Valley produces suf-
ficient volume Of eggs and poultry
to take care of their local needs.
This however, is disputed by the
fact that both Los Angeles and San
Diego counties are drawn upon rs

six months in the year. The crest

increased for the rancher if he
would follow an organized plaza
along the following lines:
Specialize Oh standard strains,
has been clearly stated by recog-
nized authorities that the fertility
of Imperial Valley eggs from he's
one year old and better is not sur
passed III any part of the United
States. Comparing the fertility of
the eggs in the Mediterranean sec
tion of the world against the In
perial production, no higher fer
tility is found. The easy access here
to the tremendous volume of
green feed available early in the
spring, as well as the insect life
which manifests itself from the
acreage planted to garden truck
means that the egg production at
that time is higher in fertility be-
cause of the marked animal protein
available.
At the present time local hatch
cries are paying as high as 15 to 20
cents per dozen bonus for eggs from
flocks properly mated, for the
express purpose of Matching. Taking
into consideration the regular price
of eggs, made effective from other
competitive sources, plus this hatch
cry bonus on eggs means a large
profit,
The poultry raiscrs must realize
that shortly, such cities as Los An
geles and the growing towns of San

markets for standard quality eggs.
Organized movements should be en-
couraged in establishing standard
breeds of fowl-especially in The

mature in order to lay during the
fall, and winter months and for
matching purposes duriIg the spring.

which is to promote civic tdiness. 1t urges three
methods of effecting this: Education, the adequate
provision of receptacles for waste and rubbish and the
enforcement of the ordinances concerning cleanliness
that already exist in many cities and towns.
Here is a reform that couldn't possibly have
acng accompaniments, and in which everybody young
old, big little, may participate. BY starting at

as running along the Atlantic coast, and the
offenders engaged in both kinds of traffic If
the coast smuggling takes far serious
pect, for everyone agrees that dope is than

More disgracefu still is the alleged fact that most
of the dope brought in is really an American product
exported to foreign countries and then smuggled back
as the easiest way to evade the narcotic drug law.
