BUREAU OF FISHERIES WILL
 HELP STOCK TROUT LAKES

KETCHIKAN-A few weeks ago a committee was appointed by the Ketchikan chamber of commerce to take steps to get some of the land locked lakes near Ketchikan stocked with trout. At today's meeting of the chamber of commerce a letter was read from F. w. Hynes, local warden of the bureau of fisheries, assuring his cooperation in this matter, and it is believed that the bureau will be glad to respond. MT. Hynes is recommending to the bu- reau that arrangements be made to secure cutthroat or rainbow fry and plant them in such lakes as subse- quent analysis may prove to be suit able for the purpose.
 F. E. Mitsch of the paper plant committee gave talk and read sta tistics comparing the tonnage pro- duction of the proposed paper plant with the tonnage of all of the can neries in the immediate district He stated that the paper mill tonnage will be about three times that of all of these canneries. He also gave other figures showing development that we may expect if. and when, the paper plant proposition becomes an actuality.-Chronic

" Two children escaped from

around in their night clothing
until they reached the home of

sSt. s. g., it was revealed today.
Virginia beavers, 10, and her
brother James, 9, were in the
children's ward for observation.
DR.. j, A. Kelk, assistant superin-
tendent Of the hospital, said to-
day they had been there only a
few days. and no diagnosis had
been made. He said he believed
they were sent there by an
agency. but appeared hazy as to
the circumstances.
The children are reported te
have told their mother, Mrs. Della
q. beavers, that they were placed
III the same building with insane
people and the shrieks scared
them.
DR.. Kelk denied this and de
clared the children were in Q
building 80 feet from the insane
wards. He said he could not tel
whether or not the noises from
the insane wards would be loud
enough to frighten the children
but thought not.
Questioned on the ease Of escape
from the ward in which the chill
dren were, he said 1t didn't hap

CUT WEEDS AS
SAFEGUARDFOR
HAY FEVER
Property Is Also Spoiled
By The Unsightly APP
pearance of Vacant Lots
ALL URGED TO HELP

The Philadelphia Director of Pub
lie Health, issued a warning this
week to eliminate weeds from back
yards, vacant lots and neglected
spots in the city or town, to guard
against hay fever, which recurs ev-
cry year at this time.
Thousands of prospective suffer-
ers in Philadelphia and vicinity will
be relieved, he said, if all weeds
could be destroyed now while they
are in blossom and thus prevented
from sending through the air the
pollen that causes the racking raw
ages of hay fever.
This applies to Milford, Delaware,
where an occasional unoccupied
building lot is OvergrOwn with
weeds; and, in that condition, spoil
the beauty of adjoining properties,
which are kept in proper condition.
Have pride in your own home
property, and that will build pride
conditions in the minds of others.
Look about you and see if you are
performing a public duty.
Those who fail to perform this
public service can be forced to Go
so by Town Council through the pO
lice department.
Don't be a Stacker! Do it prompt

racing driver, arrived in town Au-

ing" Studebaker President Eight
roadster Bergere is touring Della
ware calling ON Studebaker dealers
and making demonstrations of New
Series President models. While in
Milford he made his headquarters at
Adkins Motor Co., local Studebaker
dealer.
This is not the first time that Ber-
gere has demonstrated the superior
ity of Studebaker President Fights.
In 1928, at the Atlantic City Speed
way, he was one of the drivers who
helped pilot the world champion
President roadster 10000 miles in
26,326 minutes-an average speed of
68.37 miles per hour for 10 days and
Is nights continuous running. Not
one, but four President Fights par
ticipated in this run, all of them
finishing at average speeds in excess
of 63 miles per hour.
In 10 years of racing, Bergere has
more than once come within an ace

AND YOUR
MONEY
A DecalOgue For Home Buyers
(By John P. Mullen)


Whether or not you make a good
investment when you purchase a
home depends largely upon the
amount of care you exercise in its
selection. Remember that the house
you buy may be your home for years
and therefore, must be satisfactory
in every respect. AS practical
guide to a sound selection, the fol-
lowing tests are suggested:
/. The carrying charges on a
prospective home are your most i'm
pOrtant consideration. These in
clude such items as taxes, interest
on investment depreciation, repairs
and insurance. Make certain that
the total of these charges will not
be greater than rent on a similar
home or greater than you can afford
2. Buy, if possible, in a location
where values are rising. Property
often depreciates very rapidly be-
cause of its location.
8. Make certain of the present
market value of the property. This
may be checked in the tax collectors
office, by comparing the taxable with
the estimated real value, or by de-
termining how much your banker
would lend on a first mortgage on
the property. If he will give you, say
go per cent of his appraisal or &c.
900, you may know he considers the
property worth about $4,000.
4. Determine what special tax
assessments, if amy, are outstanding
or are likely to be outstanding
against the property.
5. Carry sufficient insurance, pre-
ferably under the term form of poi
icy, to insure payment of the mort
gage should you die before it is full
ly paid. Otherwise, the insurance
you purchased to assure your de-
pendents an income may be used to
finish paying for the home, if it is
not to be sacrificed.
6. Avoid all speculative buying, or
buying during periods of imitation. 1t
is better to buy at time when prices
are stable.
z. Protect your investment ade-
quately with fire insurance, rCnt and
general liability insurance.
8. Take every precaution to insure
prCmptness in your payments to re-
duce your mortgage an.l in The main
tenence of a reserve against Louise
expenses.
8. Engage Il reputable lawyer to
handle the legal matters in cOnnec-
tion with the purchare.
10. Seek competent advice, and
deal with no one who is not known
to be honest and reliable.
