Practically all islands available for fox propagation in Southwestern Alas ka have been taken up but among the new ranches established the past year was the Kiupalik island farm of John Brodekorb; Lars Han sen on Metrofania island; O.

 c. W. Cummings has purchased a half interest in the Nelson island fox farm of Dick Richardson, and it is the purpose of the partners to ex- tend the improvements and increase for breeding stock.
 Captain Osmond, superintendent of the Columbia River Packers associa- tion cannery at Chignik, has install ed a silver fox ranch. It is said the cost of the ranch pens and breeders run we'll over s20,000.

UNUSUAL WARM WEATHER RESULT
 OF ERUPTIONS

ANCHORAGE, Nov. 12, Phenomenal high temperatures and summerlike weather followed the eruption of Mt. Shushaldin, during the first ten days of November, the average minimum being thirty degrees. Cook Inlet was affected by the phenomenon all rivers remaining open and the land scape verdant, due to lack of frost.
 Reports from down the Inlet and from other places north report many peaks are still smoking. Many pros pectors awaiting the freezing of the rivers to make their way out, are held prisoners in remote sections, some of them running short of grub. Noun tains, usually snowclad at this time of the year, are still bare.

FOX ASSOCIATION KODIAK REGION
 IS THRIVING
$20,OOO WORTH OF BREEDERS SOLD PAST SEASON-INDUS-
 TRY GROWING RAPIDLY
PRODUCTION BASIS, 1928
Average $2,250 Expended Annually Each Ranch, Provisions
 and Labor.

There are twenty large fox ranch es in this district which are mem- bers of the Southwestern Alaska Blue Fox and Fur Farmers Associa- tion, which organization has its headquarters at Kodiak. Four of these islands have been consistent producers of blue foxes for forty years. Five others have been raising foxes for six or seven years. Six of the ranches have been operating for a period of from three to five years, and the last five have been operating from one to three years.
 The present production of foxes from these islands, in the associa- tion, is slightly better than thou sand belts year. The sale of live stock for breeders was more than S20,000 for the past year.
 Approximately 800 tons of fox feeds are either purchased direct or obtained thru hired labor each year Of this feed ten per cent is cereal and meat scraps, shipped up from the States. An average of $2,250 is expended annually by each ranch for provisions and extra labor, other than performed by the owners. It is stated that all of these ranches should be on full production ba- sis by January, 1928, at which time it is estimated the number of blue fox belts taken from these islands and ranches should not be less than 4,O00 annually.
 It is stated that over 90 per cent of fox ranches in Southwestern Alas ka are. in need of an equitable leas- ing law, that the investments made upon islands may be secured by their respective owners. The industry is one initiated by resident Alaskans, who have their homes on or near the islands. Their entire future is tied up in the enterprise, and for this reason, according to facts pre- sented to the Gateway, lawmakers should give this matter due consid- eration, that of not burdening the industry with excessive taxes and by giving the business, which is neces- sarily hazardous at the best, every protection possible.

This morning Merl La Voy, special Fox Film company's moving picture man, completed exterior scenes of the Brown & Hawkins Corporation store, the largest store of it's kind in Southwestern Alaska. Yesterday, Mr. La Voy shot few hundred feet of the various interior departments of the big store. The film will be sent to the New York office by MT. La Voy where in turn prints will be made and distributed turnout the hundreds of agencies in America.
 The exterior scenes taken this morning depicted a regular street scene, pedestrians striding by, oth- IS gazing into the neatly trimmed show window displays; with one of the fleet of delivery autos taking on load of early morning merch- andise, other cars drove up or pass ed by, including, fortunately, one of the caterpillars and trucks of the Bureau of Public Roads department. MT. LaVoy said, with respect to a commercial picture, 1t was one of the most active he had ever shot. Everything broke just right.
 MT. Hawkins said he anticipated procuring one of the prints and hoped to exhibit it here in the near future.

 The principal features of Forest Service procedure in the sale of tim Der and of the contracts beiug offer ed prospective pulp and paper opar- ators are as follows:
 1. The standing timber only is of fered for sale, title to the land being retained in the United States to in- sure renewal of the timber supply
 2. All timber is sold to the highest responsible bidder after a period of advertisement of not less than 30 days.
 8. Timber is paid for in install ments as cutting proceeds and on the basis of scale made by Forest officer at the time of cutting.
 4. All merchantable timber on the sale area is to be taken with the exception of not to exceed 5 per cent of the volume, which may be retained for reseeding purposes. The timber retained ordinarily covers small groups of trees in which no cut ting is done, and not individual trees scattered over the area logged. On areas where it appears desirable the operator may be required to Top the tops left on the area so that the brush lies close to the ground.
 5. Pulpwood contracts are being of fered covering a 30-year supply of timber for a plant of the size con- templated. While unusually large investments will be made this con. tract will provide that an additional 15-year supply in the general local ity of the plant will be withheld un. til the 30-year contract is completed, and will then be offered for sale thru advertisement in the usual way.
 The beginning of the 30-year period may be delayed to permit of two years for plant constructions.
 Additional protection to establish ed plants in the matter of timber supplies is provided by the general Forest Service policy of permitting no more esta blishments to depend on the National Forest lands of given locality for timber than can be supplied indefinitely thru the for est growth. The purpose of this policy is to give stability to develop ment in timber regions by preventing future timber depletion.
 6. The minimum rates named in the advertisements that will be consider ed for pulp timber are COG per 100 cubic feet for spruce and BOG per 100 cubic feet for hemlock. This volume unit roughly equals one cord of sol i'd wood. In terms of board feet the above rates are approximately equal to $1.00 per M feet for spruce and soc per M feet for hemlock.
 '. The stumpage rates are subject to readjustment at Swear intervals to make them conform with the then current prices being received for similar timber in the region; with the special provision that the rates for the second fve-year period of the contract shall not exceed double the rates received during the first fve-year period.

OLD NAME

Edna Morn, prima donna Of
Lyle D. Andrews musical comedy,
'My Girl" which comes to Polls
tomorrow night for week, thinks
1t passing strange that she should
draw for three years in succession
the character Of Mary to play
upon the stage. She doesn't under
stand it, but is quite content this
should be, for she has been happy
and successful in all of her
Mary roles. ....
She was the original Mary in
George NJ. Cohan's company Of
that name when the organization
appeared in Washington. and sub
sequently toured to the Pacific
coast. Then she appeared locally
with Eddie Bowling in "Sally,
Irene and Mary" the character
of Mary falling to her. Now for
the third time in succession she
is a Mary for the role Of Mary
White in "My Girl' is IN Miss
Morn's capable hands.
Miss Morn is of the ingenue
type of actress, being small,
vivacious, black.eyed and pretty.
She has an excellent soprano vice,
which she uses to fine advantage
in the beautiful duet Before the
Dawn" Miss Morn received her
musical education in the Eastman
Conservatory of Music, Rochester,
N. Y, and at the Cincinnati Col
lege of Music.
Previous to the trio Of Mary
roles mentioned above Miss Morn
started her stage career with John
Cort's "Flo.Flo" and the same
producers production of "Fiddlers
Three"
