FRESH HERRING REPL WISHES
 SUPPLY OF BAIT
Norland Returns from Sc. attle and Will Leave
 for Banks Tonight

Halibut bait which was approach ing a shortage here, was replen- ished by the receipt of 150 bar rels of herring today brought by the Wilson, Capt. Martin Hoist, to the Juneau Cold Storage Com- pany. The catch was made off Shelter Island.
 Herring runs have been scarce so far this season, and frozen bait in all Southeast Alaska ports has been reduced almost to the point of exhaustion.
 The schooner Norland, Capt. Thomas Sandvik, returned to Ju- neau yesterday afternoon from Se- attle, where she disposed Of her first halibut catch of this season to the United Pacific Fisheries. She took ice and bait today and will leave for the banks tonight.

houses and amusement resorts have large patronage. Highways are crowded with automobiles.
 At Agua Caliente, the Mexican Monte Carlo, the spendthrifs and the curious abound in large num- bers. The palatialshotels are filled with guests. Gambling games in the Casino are thronged.
 Big Sums Risked
 Stakes are high. Gamesters risk large sums of money on the whirl of a wheel, the cast of dice or the turn of 0 card with non chalence that would have been envied by the Swiftwater Bills, Mig ger Jims and other plungers of the Klondike in it's hurrah days.
 Inquiries relative to flask a travel are numerous, but bookings are not abnormal. However, the first trip of the Dorothy Alexander to Southeast Alaska this year will tax her accommodations. She will come through from Mexico, and has made attractive round-trip rates for Pacific Coast ports. She will be here the forepart of June.
 Mrs. Howard and I had a pleas ant time. We motored frequently to interior places. Naturally we are glad to be back. Home is best"

TRADE BEATING BACK TO NORMAL
 WARD SAYS
Pacific Steamship Compa- ny's Agent Tells of
 Conditions in States

Business conditions in the States are rapidly beating back to nor malcy," is the gist of the con- clusions of Brice Howard, Juneau agent of the Pacific Steamship Company, who has just returned from leisurely trip that took him through Washington, Oregon, Cali fornia and into old Mexico Com modity prices are low throughout the country" he added, "and trans portation rates in instances have fallen beneath the point of re- munerative return on the Pacific Coast, but goods are moving ing in greater quantities now than was the case year ago.
 Increase in Volume
 Our company, for instance, in January this year handled 5000 more tons in cargoes than it did in January, 1880.
 Inquiry and observation con- vinced me that reports circulated in Alaska about the industrial situa- ton in the States have often been exaggerated. There is an indus trial depression and there is an un- employment problem. but neither is of such magnitude so frequently set forth by persons who come North. To the casual visitor in the Pacific Coast cities, unemploy- ment is scarcely noticeable. In Southern California = San Diego and Los Angeles-it does not ob- tain to such a degree as it does in San Francisco.
 Many On Public Jobs
 San Francisco has met the situation effectively There public works-street, park and the like improvements-are in progress and take care of 10000 persons. Not all these work at once. They alternate in groups on the jobs. Seattle has not been so affected to the extent that the California cities have.
 Retail stores in all the coast cities are as numerous and seem as busy as ever. Motion picture

American Ink Puts Mark
 On Australian Politics

MELBOURNE, March T. = The disclosure that American water proof ink was used in preference to domestic or British inks to in scribe the names of Australian soldiers at the war memorial here, has created mild political storm. . Councillor Luxton, Lord Mayor of Melbourne, replying to critics, said American ink was superior to all others and was used because the inscriptions were to last as long as possible.

Materials Necessary
for Producing Eggs

Every egg must have Z shell. Bones
also require minerals. Both bones
and shells are largely made up Of cal
cium. Without the necessary calcium,
laying hens will lack the materials
necessary for producing eggs. Even
though enough other feed may be sup
piled to furnish the necessary mate
rails for a large number of eggs a
hen cannot lay more eggs than she
has shell material for.
Considerable experimental data has
been compiled which shows definitely
that a plentiful supply Of minerals has
a marked effect on the number OF eggs
laid. In addition to a plentiful supply
Of oyster shell or other high calcium
mineral, hens need free access to a
supply Of sharp sand to aid them In
digesting their feed. These items rep
resent a small cost to the producer
but make a large difference In the net
returns.
Growing poultry also requires a lib
eral supply Of minerals. In addition
to calcium, many producers are mix
Ing from four to five pounds Of bone
meal with every 100 pounds Of mash.
Bone meal furnishes phosphates In
addition to calcium and therefore aids
In bone growth.

NOT ON TOP OF WORLD

In a recent issue Of the Herald
we told about Ted Lindel OF
Westby having put up a consider
able quantity of buck brush as
well as moss tor feeding his
sheep, and that in addition to
this he had a fine field of corn.
Ted is n Of the happy-go-lucky
boys who always looks at the silver
lining Of the clouds, whether they are
storm or depression, but in this in
stance he has asked US to correct this
story as his corn is badly burned
now, and he has not been able to put
up near as much buck brush as he had
estimated he would.
Trying to keep everyone smiling
has brought Ted a lot Of knockers
now, believing he is sitting on top OF
the world, which is not correct, so WE
take this opportunity of correcting
the impression that was given the
public about his %affluance in hay anc
winter feed.
However; we want to compliment
him en- what he has achieved n cut
ting buck brush for his sheep, as il
shows incentive on his part, and we
want to say to all who have sheep, TX
put up plenty Of buck brush as il
makes mighty good feed for them ane
they eat it in preference to straw.

L CLOSES

The Orpheum Theatre closed
its doors Monday owing to rev.
enue having fell off to such an
extent il was being operated at
a loss.
f. j. Fishbeck, the manager in
formed the Herald that unless they
can obtain some concessions from the
film companies reducing the cost of
the films, until the present financial
condition is bettered here, he will not
be warranted in re-opening.
The general public here have for
some time expressed the opinion that
the admission price of so cents for
adults has been too high. Many claim
if the price was reduced to 35 cents
they would attend more often.
We regret this form of entertain
ment has been stopped in Plentywood
but trust that the film companies will
grant the reduced price on films which
has been demanded by the manage
ment.
Parties here would like to lease
the Orpheum and claim that with re-
duced prices they can fill the house
at each performance.
Several parties from here were in
Flaxville last Saturday night and
stated that the show house was filled,
even though it was the second per-
Torrance. The price at Flaxville is rs
cents for adults.
