over 450 delegates and representa-

The Detroit abstracters furnished
an auto trip about the city. Ii in
cluded a visit to the larger of the
two Ford-factories. c. {. said that
while they did not see the new Ford
auto, they did see some of the parts
being manufactured. They also Wis

IN the course Of construction us
we'll as several completed machines
OF different sizes. The plane which
LII. Byrd used in his trip over the
North Pole is there, but not being
used Near it is one of the smallest
planes ever built and is used daily
by the Superintendent OF the fao-
tory in going to and from he plant

The factory has a number of
machines they use 10 making IS
mile sightseeing trip over Detroit
and most of the delegates took the
ride. The plane in which the Mon
tana delegates made the trip had
three motors and had seating room
for eighteen people. There were
three rooms or compartments in
the plane for passengers and the
passengers we're privileged to walk
from one compartment to the others
while the plane was in flight. The
plane travelled at the rate of over
100 miles per hour. The Superin-

now have the plans for planes, each
to carry one hundred passengers
and would have them ready for use
sometime next year.

Take Stock of Home
Before Its Purchase

Most men buy houses entirely upon
appearance and design. In no other
purchase do they take so much for
granted. When they buy watch
they must see the works and have q
guarantee that the case is of gold or
warranted for specific term of years.
When they buy an automobile they
want every feature of the equipment
explained in detail.
But when they buy house they
usually take 1t for what it appears to
be. No guarantee goes with the aver
age house today. One never knows
what is behind the clapboards or the
shingles or Its walls. You cannot tell
what is back of the plastered ceilings
In the cellar. You never know what
Is In the walls unless they happen to
be of brick.
III you want to get full value for
your money the better way Is to build
your home, and build it Of materials
that are time-tried and proved. Build
1t hre-safe and permanently. Build a
house that will have the maximum of
fire resistance. Such house will not
rot and deterioration will come slowly.
It's expense of upkeep will be the min
imum always.
Such homes of common brick, with
nre-resistant roofs OF slate, burned
clay tile or asbestos, with solid walls
good for a century's service without
fading, can be built at very little more
cost than the cheapest houses of other
types OF wall. SO little, in fact, that
you will be astonished.- d.-Exchange

Plants to Be Avoided

Dirty trees which drop leaves or
flowers on the sidewalk, such as the
horse chestnut, catalpa, paper null
berry, and softwood silver maple, birch
and Eastwood should be avoided. Near
the house it is often desirable to plant
a few low-growing things to hide, per-
haps, an ugly foundation, or to accent
the important points of the house de
sign, such as corners or entrances
This foundation planting is very much
overdone just as present, and must be
INDUCED In very moderately If good
taste Is not to be violated.

He would talk for bit and then drink some water. This procedure was repeated many times. At the conclusion of his speech someone was heard to remark that it was the first time he had ever seen a windmill run for two hours on a gallon of water.

He quickly catches the spirit of Alaska i'll the song and regardless of the fact that he drank of the water from the Yukon river, after which action no one is supposed to tell the truth, this does not hold true with him.

be shot But not so, We must go af-
 ter it. I am thinking that much be the answer, men; Go after it, the spir-
 it and ideals in view. If we want to
 better our conditions in every way we have to be bigger and better men.
 There is much to be done and this Is virgin country. I believe there are
 men big enough in Alaska to run the country, perhaps a little experience
 along this line would help wonderful
 ly. Trying to carry on the business of
 the Territory over great distances is very difficult. For instance the board in Philadelphia sent me instructions at Juneau to proceed at once to the Prlb-
 iloff Islands, make a survey of cOndi- tions there, and report back immedi- ately to Philadelphia Little did they
 know that Pribilofs were 1,SO0 miles
 away from Juneau; that before land
 ing I would have to get special per-
 nit from the government and that i'll
 order to make such a trip it would re-
 quire three to four months. At an- Ill .. 4;x,o ox,,od o cp,ou piaoa of
 real estate in the Interior and by cor
 respondence it required almost year
 to dispose of the property"
 In summing up, Rev. Mcqueen
 stated: Be patient, you have great
 resources You are not living in ig- loos. The early impressions that
 the people in the States have had of
 Alaska are being rapidly dispelled.
 Alaska is the most wonderful country in the world as far as resources are
 concerned. We want to have some
 part in it."
 Dr. Smith at this time took occa-
 sion to remark that Rev. Mcqueen, Rev. Graham and himself have taken
 upon themselves the task of painting
 the local church. The bishop will act
 in the capacity of time-keeper At
 this juncture Rev. Graham said that
 they are all good sports, but not be- ing here as long as he had they did not know the citizens as we'll as he does, therefore he, Rev Graham : walked down the street yesterday morning and informed one of the To- cal business men that the parsonage needed painting; that they had a group of good painters on hand but no . paint. To make a long story short the paint was donated, and as was re marked later, is not red, but light grey : in color.
 The toast-master then introduced : John E. Ballaine the founder of Sew . ard, and one of Alaska's big men, MT Ballaine stated that everything had been so well said that there was little : he could add. He thought the pro : gram suggested by Mayor Ray in his address should be adopted, but that : the greatest of all difficulties was fol : all to agree upon a given program whdn one takes into consideration { the great diversity of interest. MT Ballaine then gave statistics relative and comparative to other countries 1T f in the same latitude as Alaska. These ! were of exceptional interest. He alst dwelt at some length on the value o1 ! Alaska coal, especially that of Ignite which, through recent discovery by a German scientist, is probably one O. the most valuable of any discoverie: of this nature ever made. The day

Concrete Blocks Make a Good Milk
House.

| A milk house of concrete blocks is
easy to construct, is permanent and
will afford the necessary protection
and meet all requirements for keeping
milk under sanitary conditions, says
R. w. Carpenter, Specialist in farm
engineering for the University of
Maryland Extension Service.
"The house should be separated
from the barn and should be located
for convenience near the water supply
or the ice house. For a house with
inside dimensions s by 10 feet, 1853
concrete blocks Of the by 16 inch
size will be necessary for the walls.
The floor, the cooling tank and the
foundation can be built with A sacks
of cement, four cubic yards of sand
and five and one-half cubic yards of
pebbles or crushed rock. This amount
of material will permit the famer to
mix concrete consisting of one part of
cement to two and one-half of sand
and four of pebbles for the founda-
ton. For the floor he will use one
part of cement to two of sand and
four of pebbles. The tanks will re-
quire one part of cement to two of
sand and three of pebbles. Only enough
water for a workable mix should be
used.
"For reinforcing the cooling tank,
1877 feet of 3-S inch rods will be re-
quired.
"The height of the milk cans must
determine the depth of the tanks. 1t
is desirable to have as much of the
can submerged as possible. If ice is
not available, the milk can be kept
cool by circulating spring water thru
the tank. The water should enter the
tank by pipe near the floor and
leave by an overflow pipe near the
top. If grooves are built in the floor,
water will circulate under the cans
and cooling of the milk will be has
tened"
