ORIGIN IF ESKIMO

Alaska and the opposite parts
 of Asia hold, in all probability the Key to the problems of peo- bling Alaska. curator to Dr. Alec Hrdlicka, curator in the National Museum, in report entitled "Anthropological Survey in Alas ka," recently published pr Hrd \ licka has spent much time in the North He says:
 Observations on both the living and the skeleton remains in the western Eskimo area, supplement- ed hy those on the northern and northeastern Eskimo are now am- pie enought to justify certain gen. eralizationS.
 The whole distribution of the physical characteristics among the Eskimo strongly suggests gradual changes within the family itself; and as the long, narrow. high skull, with keeled dome, occurring in a few limited localities in the west but principally tn southern Green land and neighboring territories, appears to be the .furthest limit of the differentiation which finds no parallel in the neighboring or other peoples, while the form that is found in northeastern Asia. the Bering Sea- and southwestern Al- aska KS near to those of various adjacent peoples. the inevitable resulting deduction is that, in the light of our present knowledge. the

Westinghouse Official to
Start Experiment to
Aid Agriculture.


NEW YORK, May 12.-Proof of
the theory that the solution of the
farm problem lies in efficient opera
ton rather than politics will be I'M
dertaken by the Westinghouse Elec-
trio Company ON an experimental
farm near Pittsburgh, it was an
nounced today.
To-day, in an electrified America, -
w. S. Rugg, vice-president in
charge of engineering of the West
inghouse Electric Company, said,
"the farmer can not hold his own
by the sweat of human labor.
Farming, one of the biggest Amer
lean industries, is almost the only
one that makes little use Of cleo
tricity, and is the one which has
suffered the most severe depression.
Though making electricity gen.
orally available on the farm pre-
sents difficulties, 1 believe that
Westinghouse can help solve these
as it helped solve the problems Of
electric service for city lighting, for
power, for transmission and for the
railroads.
The Westinghouse Company has
completed arrangements for the
complete identification of farm
at Jeanette, Pa, where electricit"
will milk cows, cool milk; clean, 1 N
and cap bottles; perform household
tasks, grind feed, fill silos, hoist hay,
heat water, hatch chicks, kill flies,
mix concrete, test seed corn, saw
wood and grind meat.

NEW YORK, May 12-Organized
