There are about PTS patients, with nearly 50 committed annually and forty odd discharged. In 1926 an investi- gation was made under an Act of Congress as to the adyisability of establishing an institution for the insane within the Territory of AL aska or the United States. The con- sensus of opinion was against con- struction in Alaska and nothing further was done in the matter.

deceased had met his, or her, death by violence or that any criminality was involved. It is also suggested that the statute is already broad enough to cover any existing needs, while the proposed change would undoubtedly throw upon the Federal government an obligation of bury ing the bodies of deceased persons whose deaths were not due to any suspicion of criminality.

Senator Robert B. Howell is particularly interested in the raising of yak in Alaska and is anxious that money be appropriated to extend the work that was first started ten years ago at the U. S. Experiment station. The present herd of yak is in the vicinity of Healy, on the Alaska Railroad. It consists of four pure bred animals and eight yak-Gallo- way hybirds. Dr. H. w. Alberts, Director of the Experiment Stations in Alaska, writes that observation on the behavior of the yak indicates that they are hardier than our beef animals. He also states that a yak COW was slaughtered about "a year ago and the meat was so similar to beef that it was difficult to note any difference.

The preferred method is to construct the conduits by excavating through bedrock and during the pe- riod of low water. The device will then be ready for high water and will function to carry off the fine materials, these materials carrying the precious metals.

Officials in Alaska have suggested that Section 2474 of the Compiled
 laws of Alaska, relating to the du- ties of Commissioners as ex-officio Coroners in the calling of inquests,
 be amended slightly to widen the scope of their authority. In addi- tion to the present authority to call an inquest an amendment is asked for by the addition of the following words: "or has been found dead either in room or in the open or
 has met an accidental death" The advisability of this amendment was submitted to the Attorney General and he decides that there is no necessity for the proposed amend ment, which would be mandatory even in cases where there was ob- viously no reason to believe that the

MILK SHOULD BE
 ADDED TO WAFFLE
 BATTER GRADUALLY
This Method Insures a Smooth, Light, Lumpless Batter

Every cook knows that it is risky to pour all the milk at once into the flour when making waffies. In spite of vigorous stirring the batter will invariably contain Jumps.
 Coffee roasted in bulk also ir- wolves risk. Even the most skilled operator cannot prevent variation in the roast because the quantity is too large to handle. AS result, some of the coffee berries are over done and some underdone. Such variation in the roast causes varia- tion in flavor.
 Realizing this, Hills Bros, in San Francisco, perfected and pat ented a process that roasts every coffee berry evenly. By automatic control, only a few pounds at time pass through the roasters in which heat is also automatically controlled. When the coffee finally leaves the roasters, it is perfectly uniform in color and roast and gives a delicious flavor in the cup that no other coffee can equal.
 No matter when or where you buy Hills Bros. Coffee, it is as fresh and complete in it's exclusive flavor and aroma as when it came from the roasters. This is because Hills Bros. Coffee is packed in vacuum-a process that takes air, which destroys coffee flavor, from the can. The ordinary air-tight can does not keep coffee fresh. Hills Bros. Coffee is sold everywhere. Ask for it by name and look for the Arab the trademark -on the can.

A device that it is thought may prove of much value in Alaska is the subject of a patent issued a couple of weeks ago by the U. S. Patent Office to John V. Rowley, of For tuna, California. It is a device for extracting mineral-bearing sands or "pay dirt" from beds of streams when they are at freshet or flood stages. The arrangement is to have troughs having screens across their open tops buried in the bedrock be- low the stream. The pay dirt"

First Division Fur
 Catch is Small

One of the smallest fur catches for many years is indicated by the Game Department reports. Low prices for almost al varioti- es of fur resulted in keeping some of the trappers out of the field and the short time in which game may be trapped is also given as another reason for the shortage in catch this winter.
 Report on blue fox from Lamp sons indicates that prices for that commodity is down twenty per cent below last falls prices which were none too good. Price. at the recent sales in Seattle in dicates a slight upward trend out hardly soon enough for the +rapperS to receive much benefit therefrom.

OLD TIMER LOSES HANDS

The Gateway of Seward tells that Harry Kolkman was found recently in a vacant cabin on Esther Creek with both his hands and feet frozen. His feet can be saved but he will lose his hands if he survives pneumonia which may set in due to several hours of exposure. It is supposed that the man had left his cabin dur ing the previous night and he apparently wandered into the cold cabin seeking shelter. When found he was standing in the middle of the room with a cur tain over his head and he had on shoes but no socks and his hands
 were bare. He was barely able to walk out and he was rushed to 1 the hospital by automobile.
