REQUESTING SALMON HATCHERIES

Reports current that among the matters coming before the Legislature this session will be that of chang ing the regulation with respect to returning salmon fry to the waters of the Territory in lieu of taxes
 Judged by frequent expressions of cannery manag- ers there will be little opposition to the change, many having expressed the desire to get out of the hatchery business if possible.
 While the hatchery has proved valuable accessory to propagation of the fish, it has not fully solved the ques ton There other ways which appear to have more to recommend them and which apparently nearer
 solution. Among them is the providing of for the fish to reach hespawning grounds and combating the predatory enemies of the young salmon If the money expended by the canneres in maintaining hatcheres was expended in clearing streams of Instructions, placing fish ladders chutes where Instructions cannot be moved, and Territorial hatcheries maintained at their highest degree of efficiency, it would not be necessary for the private enterprises to engage in the hatchery busi

COLD NUGGETS FOUND
 IN DAWSON CHICKENS

DAWSON, Feb. 11.-Hunker roost. CTS are selling at a premium these days, and little wonder, following the novel discovery which was made Wednesday at the summit hotel, owned by Joseph Fournier The proprietor of the Summit hotel killed a ths-old-rooster, and imagine his surprise when a 75 cent nugget was found in the craw of the bird when it was being dressed. The dis covery was made by the All Gold miner, Duncan Michie, who was a visitor at the roadhouse at the time. Last year Archie Macherson pur- chased some chickens from Joe Fournier and in two of the chickens he found nuggets, one weighing to the value of 60 cents. Either there is free milling gold quartz outcrop- ping at the summit or the chickens raised in that part of the district are, forsooth, real "gold diggers."

ON MOTOR ROW

gas vapor created by the Fuemer
provides starting mixture, and it
is only necessary to have the choke
partially on, just enough to enrich
the mixture to keep the motor rum
ming after it is started.
"The advantages Of the Fuemcr
arc obvious. 1t facilitates starting
in cold weather, prevents excessive
drain on the battery due to long
spinning Of the starting motor, and
prevents dilution usually brought
about by excessive use of the chok-
ing mechanism.
"And l would like to suggest to
owners" said Mr.. Sandin, that
they use only denatured alcohol
solutions in the radiator. Most any
garage can test the radiator solu-
tion as to the temperature it will
stand. Care must be taken to test
the solution often, however, for the
alcohol evaporates rapidly.
"The alcoholic solution should be
thoroughly mixed before pouring
into the radiator, or the motor
should be run for a while after
pouring alcohol into the radiator
and before going out into the cold.
Unless this is done, the lower part
of the radiator may freeze, and the
alcohol on top boil away. If,
through some neglect, the water
cooling system has frozen, do not
attempt to thaw it out by starting
the engine, but remove the car to
a warm place and allow it to thaw
out gradually"

Care of Autos For
Winter Described
by Chrysler Men

At this season the prudent motor
list, taking time by the forelock, is
beginning to consider approaching
changes in driving conditions and
is planning how best to put his car
in order for winter months.
Chrysler service experts, follow
ing the Chrysler policy of assuring
to owners the fullest possible enjoy
ment Of their cars throughout the
year, have outlined a program of
preparation. They advise motorists
to make use Of service station facil-
tiles. wherever possible. But as
there are always a certain number
of owners who prefer to condition
their own cars for the winter, these
suggestions will be read with profit
by many.
The first step advised is to re-
move from the oil pan any accum-
ulated sludge and to refill the pan
with fresh oil, taking care that it
is of good quality. Frequent
changes of oil afterward, in con-
junction with proper adjustment Of
crankcase ventilator, will continue
to safeguard oil circulation.
Next, the chassis should he COM
pletely fabricated and the oil
changed in the transmission and
differential. The generator should
be thoroughly inspected and cleaned
and any worn parts replaced. With
this done and the battery checked
and recharged the electrical system
will have plenty of punch"
The starting motor should be re-
moved and cleaned, and worn parts,
if any replaced. Cleaning the start
er driving mechanism is stressed as
being of particular Importance, both
on the starter and the gear of the
flywheel, as accumulated oil gets
gunmy and in time prevents gears
from engaging, or, once engaged
from disengaging.
Connecting cable terminals of the
entire electrical system should be
cleaned and those at the battery
generator, starting motor, starting
switch and ground creased to pre-.
vent corroding.
In the ignition system. it is i'm.
portant that the distributor anc
spark plug points should be cleaned
and adjusted, rotor and distributor
cleaned, cables inspected and re.
placed II necessary, and timing re.
