port, the Bureau of Fisheries
 estimates that between 5O,OOO
 and 6O,OOO skins will be taken from the herd this year, as it is lin July that the larger propor-
 tion is taken. The Pribilof Is- lands seal herd, under the con- trol and protection of the Bu- reau of Fisheries, is yielding a
 larger harvest" year by year.
 This is said to be the result O. scientific taking of skins so that the brood stock will not be dim
 finished. Last year, the take was about 50,000 skins. During the period in which the Bureau Of Fisheries has had supervisory powers over the taking of skins, the herd has increased from a. bout 125,000 to fully 1,127,OOO.

 On the afternoon of July 22, President Hoover signed h e home loan bank bill which ap- plies to Alaska as well as the states. The bill will not come from the printers for a day or two yet, but when it does it will immediately be mailed to all the newspapers in the Territory. The purpose of. the bill is to es- tablish a series of discount banks for home mortgages, per- forming a function for home owners somewhat similar to that performed in the commercial field by the Federal Reserve Banks through their discount facilities. There are to be 8 to 12 such banks established in diff erent parts of the country with a total capital of 125,OOO,OOO to he initially subscribed by the Re- construction Finance Corpora ton. Building and loan associa- lions, savings banks, insurance companies, etc., are to be eligible for membership in this system. Member institutions are requir- ad to subscribe for stock of the home loan banks and to absorb gradually the capital and they may borrow from the banks up On their notes to be secured by the collateral of sound home mortgages. The home loan banks are in turn to obtain the re- sources required by tn m the issue of debentureS and notes. These notes have pack of them the obligation of the members, the mortgages pledged as securities of such ob- igations and the capital of the home loan bank themselves. The debentures and notes thus have 3 trible security.

 A Congressman had suggested to the Department of the Inter- for that it might be a matter of great economy if the Alaska Railroad were closed down from November 1 to March 16. The idea was not favored by Secre- tary Wilbur, but he took it up with General Manager Ohlson, land he also reported adversely oa the proposition, so it is ex- pected to operate the railroad as usual.

HOME ECONOMICS SPECIALIST PRESENTS
 HELPFUL LESSONS

A number of women attended the demonstrations given at the high school by Mrs. Lydia Fohn- Hansen, home economics specialist of the Extension Service, Alaska Agricul- tural College.
 Mrs. Fohn-H Hansen discussed the importance of protective foods in the loW-cost diet, especially milk, canned tomatoes and leafy vege- tables. She demonstrated the prep aration of milk from dry-skim milk powder and used it in various dishes Milk is an indispensable food for children and, although whole fresh milk is best, evapO- rated milk or milk powder has the same food value. Skim milk can be reconstructed from powder ed form at about cents quart and has all the food value of while milk except butter, thus furnish ing bone Il d muscle building foods at a very low cost.
 Leafy vegetables are of special importance where foods are apt to be rather concentrated. Cabbage, lettuce, Swiss chord, and spinach could be grown by almost every family in Seward insuring an ade- quate supply for summer use at least.
 Meat and the other muscle build ing foods, eggs and fish are us ually expensive in Alaska. The less expensive cuts of meat have prac- tically the same food value as the most expensive. Where wild meat or fish or reindeer can be secured the cost for meat can be greatly reduced. A liver loaf, and Swiss steak, were preferred to show ways of preparing inexpensive or wild meat.
 The place of cod-liver oil in the loW-cost diet and the desirability of using the more potent forms of vitamin D recently discovered in halibut-liver oil and salmon oil, was explained and recommended for all children living in Alaska.
 The market order for a family of three for a week as filled and loan ed for the exhibit by a local store, together with t e meat order, amounted to $67O. The cost could no doubt be reduced by buying in quantity and in bulk.
 An interesting feature of the demonstration was the cereal pre- pared from whole wheat ground in a small grinder, manufactured for family use The difference in price between whole wheat and prepared breakfast foods would easily pay for the grinder.
 Mrs. Fohn-H Hansen said: Sew ard is to be congratulated upon having such an excellent school building and adequate equipment for giving girls an opportunity to get instruction in the home-mak- ing arts and practices" Mrs. Fohn- Hansen wishes to thank all who helped to make the demonstration a success and especially the girls in the Sewing Class who so kindly helped to wash the dishes.
