SCIENTISTS STUDYING
 NORTHERN LIGHTS

The Northern Lights in Alas ka are now under the closest possible scrutiny, in the hope of obtaining more definite in- formation on the heighth of the aurora as an aid in calcu- lating the height and compo- sition of the atmosphere.
 To accomplish this, the met eorologists taking part in the second international polar year are combining the arts of pho- tography and radio. Repre- sentatives of the Weather Bu- reau have set up special cam eras at two stations in Alaska Point Barrow and Nome. These stations, together with one at Fairbanks, established by the Carnegie Institute of Washing ton, will be in communication by radio at all times.
 When an aurora is sighted, the cameras will be focused on a certain selected star and all will be snapped simultaneous ly. The Army Signal Corps, which operates the government radio communication in Alas ka, will give the signals for taking the pictures and as many as possible of these sych- ronized photographs will be made. Meteorologists, using these photographs and the star charts, will be able to compute the height of the aurora from it's position with reference to the selected star at the three observation points. The par ticularly long base lines pro- vided in Alaska for these cal culations promise to Weather

ALASKA MUSKOXEN
 HERD IS THRIVING

Distinct gains in the weight of the individual members of the herd of muskoxen brought to the Territory from Green land last year is noted in re- ports from the Alaska Agri- cultural College at Fairbanks.
 After a summer on Gold stream Hill, portion of which constitutes the summer pasture of the Biological Survey, the herd was recently brought down to the winter pasture at the College, where it wa3 found that the three year old animals had made an average gain in weight of between 80 and 83 pounds during the sum- mer and the two-year olds had gained an average of be- tween 102 and 112 pounds in the same time. The weight of the heaviest animal at the time of the herds arrival was 226 pounds and the same ami nal, still the heaviest, is now 442 pounds.

NEW YORK. July 80 G.N.S.D.
The cotton market showed a
firmer tone today.
Buying by japanese interests in
December, January, March and
May featured the dealings and
formed the principal source of
support.
Some Covering
There was a small demand
from commission houses and Wall
Street in the distant months,
while covering purchases for over
the week end by professionals
was also sustaining factor.
For the first opening in nearly
three weeks there was no selling
from cooperative brokers. Selling
came largely from the sentiment
and from Liverpool.
The Liverpool Cotton Market
was closed for bank holidays un-
til Tuesday which resulted in
scattered selling here from Euro
pean brokers. There was also a
limited amount Of hedge selling
in evidence.

What North Carolina Did
New York Tines

These are the days when every gov
ernment-local, state and national
is trying to balance its budget. Such
outstanding examples as Milwaukee,
Tennessee and North Carolina are
interesting to taxpayers everywhere.
Milwaukee'S taxes are low, its public
order excellent and its treasury SOL
vent. Tennessee. after an unusual
experience with high finance and the
usual spending spree. balanced her
budget somewhat violently. In the
opinion of Governor Gardner OF
North Carolina, who writes about it
in the current Saturday Evening
Post, his state best dealt with the
common problem.
mo miracle has been performed"
according to the governor, and other
states, for local reasons, might not
be able to do what the North Caro-
lima legislature has recently done.
But what was done Is worth atten-
ton of all American taxpayers and
the administrators Of public affairs.
In the summer Of 1880 Governor
Gardner began to prepare for the
general assembly Of the following
year, and tax bills were ready when
it met. They believe in North Caro-
lima that the preparedness course
they followed is partly responsible
for the present contrast between the
condition of their treasury and that
OF the federal government. During
the last two years $o,75o.000 Of the
state debt was paid OFF, and 920,-
100000 will have been paid on the
bonded debt by this administration.
But the specific contributions Of the
general assembly to the situation as
revealed In 1881 were these: They
stopped the advancing tax burden
in its tracks" by reducing state ex-
penses and turned the curve Of tax
alton downward" at the same time;
county Jurisdiction over roads and
schools was abolished, and their CEN
tralization at Raleigh cut the prop
erty tax $l2,000,o00 This year. prop
erty which in 1921 paid IS per cent
Of the state tax will pay 81 per cent.

cludes his recital: New conditions
