THE BUFFALO'S SECRET

The buffalo, one time king of the western plains, has made a valuable contribution to the live stock industry Through experiments with native grasses, J. E. Painter of Denver Colorado has discovered how the prairie expanses of the West supported the vast herds of buffalo with out exhaustion of their food supply
 The problem of range forage has puzzled stockmen since the days when tremendous herds grazed on the frontier after the disappearance of the buffalo. The range grasses failed the stockmen after few years of grazing.
 ''The buffalo did not graze upon the rich na- tive grasses in any area to the point of extinc- tion. He allowed the grasses time to recover strength and luxuriance before returning to feed," declares MT. Painter.
 The buffalo more provident than the Al- aska cannerymen and the Alaska irappers. Ii those who derive revenue from Alaska's resources would only follow the simple plan suggested by the buffalo in alternating it's foraging, Alaska's fisheries and game resources would be conserved to posterity and would continue to produce mil lions in wealth for those who now prostitute these resources.

sciences, as well as the professions. By the time the next census enumeration comes around we believe the Indian population will show high grades in their studies as their advanta geously situated white brethren.
 Many fine school buildings ha"c been erected in the Territory, during the past ten years,-build- ings that rank favorably with cities in the states having ten times our population. The teaching staffs have been improved to keep pace with the buildings, and when a graduation day comes, there remains the Alaska College, with a riculum good or better (for the Aaskan) than those of the famous colleges of the Pacific coast.
 At the present time there is no reason what ever why every Alaska boy and girl, whatever the race condition or creed. cannot enjoy every advantage that he could find in outside schools. Practically every course taught outside be found in our Territorial schools. Our principals and teaching staffs are recruited from the ranks of the best obtainable, and our buildings are as spacious and comfortable as car be found any, where - ':se

AUDITORS OFFICE WAS NOT SCORED BY
 SENATE INVESTIGATION a:

Investigation by special joint committee of the recent legislature into territorial offices and the report by the committee of it's findings have resulted in press comment inferring fault was found by the lawmakers with the administration of the territorial auditors office ...,,,. :.
 There is nothing in the committees findings that reflects upon Cash Cole as territorial audi tor In fact, the report does not mention the auditors office, and any inference as to it's fail to cooperate with other public officials or, to it's incompetent administration is not warrants ed by any expression of the committee, and is quite untrue.
 The committee found that the system for the conduct of the business of the territory had been built up in haphazzard way. That is, as needs for office arose they created and the commit tee concluded there had been at time an ef fort at correlation of dutieS It further ascertain ed that there had been considerable amount of friction among the different offices and it expressed the opinion that much of the friction is directly traceable to the personality of the several officials and to their attitude toward the problems that confront them.
 The "haphadzard way' in which the territorial government was built up is illustrated by both the legal methods and the extra legal practices that used to withdraw funds from the treasury before the creation of the auditors office.
 The first territorial legislature in 1913 created the office of treasurer He then appointed by the governor The treasurer was charged with the collection of taxes and the issuance of war; rants. As soon this form of government be- gan to operate, the susceptibility to criticism of the one-man jurisdiction (the governor dominat- ing his appointee, the treasurer) in the handling of funds apparent, and an arrangement, quite outside the law at once made whereby the territorial secretary, who is named by the President of the United States should be the officer to issue warrants upon tce treasurer This system remained in operation until May, 1929, iOd of

Several weeks ago The Demo- crat showed floor plans and eleva- tions of a house so designed that it could first be built as a small place for a young couple beginning married life to start off in. Then, when some years had rolled past and more space was needed, the house could be added to without disturbing the architectural design in the least, and with a minimum of necessary change in the orig inal structure.
 Every factor of this house has been thoroughly worked out by Leigh French, Jr, well known New York architect, who designed it for House & Garden magazine, through whose courtesy it is shown in The Democrat.
 The living room of this house is described in the text below. ln- formation about the other rooms will be published from time to time. The Democrat will be glad to furnish without cost, blue prints of the house to any family planning to build house this year.
 After careful consideration it was decided to treat this living room in the English Georgian fashion-a style that mixes dig nifty and comfort in a happy blend, and is closely allied to our own late Colonial style of architecture and decoration, as may be quickly noted from the illustrations shown.
 The color scheme selected is red, white and blue-dictated not by

patriotic fervor, but because this scheme is much in favor at pres ent and because red and blue against white background achieve a nice balance of cool and warm color. As matter of fact, the blue tones are not very con- spicuous, this color being used only on one chair, for few acces- sories and, combined with others, in curtains, pictures, etc.
 Walls are in oyster white and, except for holdings accented in beige. all the woodwork of the room is carried out in the same tone. Oyster white is sufficiently off the dead white to give mellow ness yet keep the effect of spa ciousness that the use of white always gains for room.
 Over white Venetian blinds, which, if desired, could be replaced with roller shades, are hung beige chintz curtains patterned with design of figurines, flowers and butterflies picked out in red, white and blue. An interesting swagged valance at each window repeats the red in the chintz.
 Most of the furniture pieces are shown in the illustrations. On the bay window side of the room are two comfortable armchairs. The largest of these is a Queen Anne wing chair covered in French blue damask. The smaller chair is up- holstered in red antique velvet. Beside this is a convenient mahog- any magazine rack.
 As may be noted from the desk, this room provides a convenient spot for the going over of house. hold accounts or solving office problems brought home for quiet contemplation. The desk is a Sher- aton piece, in mahogany and satin wood. An American empire desk chair has it's seat covered in cerise satin. A coaching print in bright colors is suggested for the wall space alongside the desk.
 The Duncan Phyfe console that stands against the wall back of the desk is one of pair fanking the
