E. Morke, owner of the Sanitary Dairy, has leased the A. P. A. can nery site for three years, with an option of two additional years and will conduct his dairy from that point as soon as he gets the road extended from where it now ends at the approach to the old salmon cannery property through the site and to the farthest building.

The summer was marked by exceedingly heavy rainfall, and advantageous ln maintaining large supply ot water, elsewhere 1t was serious handicap, for it occurred Ill destructive volume, putting the transportation facilities out of com mission for long periods.

 The total production of gold from Alaska mines in 1882 is estimated at $9,539, 1000, or somewhat more than in 1881. This maintains the record of annual increase for the past five years. Together with the output of earlier yeals it brings the total value of gold produced from the Territory to more than
 $4OS, ,360,O00.
 Accol ding to preliminary estimates the production of gold was distrib- uted between lode and placer mines | ;n the proportion of about A to 50. This relation is about the same | as prevailed during 1880 but differs from the ratio in 1881, when about equal amounts of gold were recover
 ed from the two types of mines. In
 the period since gold mining began | the ratio between the value of the gold from the two sources has beei about 34 per cent from lodes to about 66 per cent from the placers.
 Obviously, as the Alaska placers are
 more easily and extensively worked
 than the lodes they contributed most
 largely to the output of the Terri
 tory in the early days, but as their
 extent is limited they will be the l first to be exhausted. The lodes are
 relatively more expensive to develop,
 but if they are skillfully managed they are more likely to afford con-

imately 2,760,0OO sweaters will he subject to requisition by the chap ters. Delivery of sweaters will begin immediately.
 Red Cross records show that the government cotton was used to pur- chase 50,8S2,9SS yards of cloth of varieties suitable for making dresses for girls and women, shirts and underwear for men and boys, cloth ing for infants, underwear for all; and to acquire 1,597,069 dozens Of knit underwear and hosiery for men women and children, and overalls, jumpers, trousers and knickers for men and boys. The sweaters will come from factories that had not received any of the Red Cross cot ton orders and will keep a number of sweater factories, which were about to close down, open for six weeks or longer. Pacific coast fac tories also have shared in orders for Red Cross garments, MT. Schafer says.
 Legislation is now pending in Congress to turn over to the Red Cross the remainder of 329,000 bales of cotton held by the Farm Board in order to continue the clothing relief work. John Barton Payne, chairman of the Red Cross, testify ing before the House Agriculture Committee, stated that the 500,000 bales of cotton already consumed was meeting approximately 20 per cent of the requirements for cloth ing among the more than 3.O0O,- 900 families reported in need of garments

Radio Owners Seek
 interference MIakerS

A number or Wrangeu citizens who own radio sets and are deep ly interested in eliminating inter ference of the broadcast programs have decided that as charity begins at nome, so should elimination ot interference begin at home.
 h response to several inquiries from radio owners, H. Wellons, manager of the city plant has pre- pared the following data:
 ii class one of the home radio in.erfereice makers he listed melt ed mnk machines, fruit juice ex- tractors, electric sewing machines, small electric fans, electric egg Deaters, small hair differs and va cuum sweepers. Motors on this equipment, says Mr. Wellon, are of the type with brushes that arc. In- reference can be eliminated by the simple application of a small con- densor or filter. The cost of the unit is from S2 to $3.50.
 In class two he lists electric dish washers, compressors, refrigerat- ors, and carbonators. The cost of eliminating interference in these machines runs from $7.5O to $15.
 Regarding oil burners, Wellons explains that there are three types: continuous and intermittent spark, ana manual or gas ignition. The continuous spark type requires a choke and condenser on line, all nigh tension leads insulated with metallic covering and grounded; the intermittent spark type requires shoke and condensors; the manual type usually requires only a con- densor.
 To enlighten the public as to just what these devices are, it is stat ed that they are carefully balanc- ed arrangement of resistance, capac- ity and inductance designed to pre- vent radio interfering impulses created by electric apparatus, from being transmitted by or radiated from the power lines or associated lines.
 MT, Wellons has been experi- menting with a detector to locate the sources of radio interference in town, but as it has not worked out satisfactorily, it is not being re- tained. He has now sent to an eastern firm specializing in the manufacture of equipment both to detect and prevent interference, and will have a reliable detector for use within a few weeks.
 In the meantime radio owners are finding that there is much they can do in their own homes in the way of new elements for electric flat irons, for istance, and in filters for small motors which can be purchas- ed locally and at small cost.
