the local and Territorial Chambers of Commerce, and Is anxious to be of even more service. With the ex- 'pansion of mining and other indus trial activity throughout the Ter ritory, with it's resulting increase in general business, we feel tho scope of the Committees activity will be considerably broadened.
 Good Will Tour
 One of the features of this years program will be the sponsorship of another of the Chambers biennial Good Will tours to Alaska. The tour this year will be headed by Thomas M. Pelly, President of the bowman & Hanford Company. Mir Pelly participated in the 1885 trip and is one of the younger business leaders of the city. He will be as- sisted in the organization of the personnel of the tour by group of nearly 50 prominent business exe- cutives. The delegation will sail from Seattle on the s. s. Aleutian of the Alaska Steamship Company on June B. and will call at Ketchi- kan, Wrangell, Petersburg, Juneau Skagway, Cordova, Valdez, Seward, Anchorage, visiting the same ports of call southbound with the excep- ton of Skagway, but adding Sitka and Metlakatla. A special group of about 10 business men will be selected to go into the interior of Alaska, leaving the main party at Seward. A visit will be made to Mount Mckinley National Park and after two-days' visit at Fairbanks the trip will be made to the coast

 Cooperation was given to several cities in Alaska which were seeking government funds for new federal buildings. The committee was help ful to both Ketchikan and Sitka in obtaining funds for their build ings.
 A number of important harbor improvements were made during the year, some of these having re- lceived the attention of the Alaska Committee for the past several years. Among them were the dredg- ling of Petersburg, Wrangell and lSitka harbors, new projects includ- ed the making of surveys for small boat harbors at Juneau and Valdrz: funds will be available this year for Ia small boat harbor at Cordcva: and the dredging of Dry Pass.

 Aid Alaskans
 During the year many important Alaska business men and officials were guests of the Committee at it's regular Thursday noon meetings in the Chamber dining rooms. The Committee is anxious to entertain Alaskans and happy to be of service to them when they are in the city. The Committee is eager to hear from Chambers of Commerce throughout the Territory as to problems on which the assistance of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce would be helpful.

 The purpose of the Good Will Tour is to give business executives of Seattle the opportunity to go nsrth in a group and pay visits to the business men of Alaska. In 1895 the group consisted of 146, but wien the Aleutian sails in June it is lke- Iy that all accommodations will be used by the Seattle party.
 The Alaska Committee holds its luncheon meetings on Thursday moons in the Alaska Room of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce building. Alaskans in the city are cordially invited to meet with the committee and to participate in the discussion of the matters which come before it.

mother as well as the groom's will

Hest mothers dresses we have seen

One for an afternoon wedding was
made of lace worn with a dusty
pink hat and gloves. One for an
evening wedding was made of lace
and chiffon with fitted wrist length
sleeves but a deep v front and back
neckline. A transparent turban of
dusty pink matched the short kid
gloves.
Wedding guests at an informal
afternoon wedding wear the Sunday
type dress. At formal afternoon
wedding they wear toe or ankle
length dresses that are made with
sleeves and not too low necklines.
Hats and gloves are also worn. For
the eight-thirty evening wedding,
formal dresses are worn. Neck
lines are low and dresses long and
sleeveless.

features were the high cowl neck
line and the leg o'mutton sleeves
with tiny covered buttons extend
ing from the waist to the elbow,
and continuing to point on the
wrist. The six panelled skirt en-
phasized high waist line front
and back with the back panel ex-
tending into a slight train. The
bridal veil of illusion fell from a
lace cap, made pointed in front and
back, and caught with orange
blossoms, the veil extending over
the face to hip line in front and
beyond the length of the train in
the back. Tiny sprays of lace flow
ers were caught at the shoulder
point of the veil. Her flowers were
a modern design of gardenias and
orange blossoms.
Miss Betsy Leak, of Tampa, was
the brides only attendant. She
wore a gown of nile green Valen-
ciennes lace over green taffeta,
made in period style. The fitted
waist was finished with an Eliza
bethan collar and French ripple
sleeves, and the six panelled skirt,
made in princess style extended to
a high waistline. Her hat was green
taffeta in a Mary, Queen of Scots
design. She carried a Colonial bou-
quet of Talisman roses and fushia
statice embedded in nine green
tulle.
Mr.. Thomson was attended by
the brother of the bride, Waldo c.
Hicks, Washington, D. c., and ush-
ers were Harry c. McFerrin and
Francis w. Shockley.
An informal wedding reception
was held after the ceremony at the
Woman's Club on Verona Avenue.
Spring flowers in pastel shades
and candle-lites formed the beauti-
full decorations throughout the
club rooms. The punch table was
overlaid with a lace cloth and CEN
tered with a bowl Of mixed garden
flowers, thanked on either side by
tall rainbow colored tapers. The
punch bowls at either end of the
table were surrounded with ferns.
The serving table for the brides
cake was lace covered and had for
it's centerpiece the three TERED we'd

blossoms, and encircled with sprays

were on either end of the table.

The weeks mail has been filled
with letters asking about wedding
clothes. Clothes for the bride-her
mother-tne groom's mother and
the guests as well as the brides
maids.
The stores are full of lovely
bridal finery. Some of the very
smartest of the years brides are
having cotton weddings. Bridal
dresses are made of white moussel-
inc or organza, while the brides
maids are gowned in the same
model as the bride, only in colors.
Rainbow colors that signify hap
piness are very smart for the at
tendants. This year the bride her
self will frequently choose to wear
shell pink or pale yellow. Both
bride and bridesmaid want to get
that portrait" look.
Bride s-maids frequently will
wear open crowned, large brimmed
leghorn hats from the backs of
which will float floor length velvet
streamers. Quaint trailing sashes
will adorn waistlines. Short pulled
sleeves are very smart. Square
necklines are the rage. The smart.
est dresses will be ankle length.
Others will touch the toe. Waist
length wells will be the rage. Most

How can feed an orphaned
foal?
Mares milk is higher in percen-
tage of water and sugar than cows
milk and lower in other food ele-
ments, so that in raising foal that
has lost it's mother, care must be
taken to provide milk of about the
same composition as mares milk.
Milk fresh from a COW, low in but
terfat, should be used To about a
pint of milk add tablespoonful of
sugar and from to 5 tablespoon
fuls of lime water. Warm to body
temperature and for the first few
days feed about one-fourth of a
pint every hour. AS the foal grows,
increase the amount and reduce
the number of feedings per day.
After 8 or weeks, the sugar can
be stopped, and at or 6 weeks,
skimmilll can be used entirely.-A.
L. Harvey, division of animal hus-
bandry.
Two cows in our herd each have
one infected teat. The teats close
up so that it Is difficult to get a
stream of milk through them. Once
in q while a scab forms over the
ends of the teats making them
seem quite sore. What may be done
to prevent this, and how may these
cows be cured?
If the whole udder were involved
in this infection, it would be dag

get. The disease is infectious and is
transmitted from animal to animal.
There is no satisfactory treatment
and there is danger of running the
udder when treatment involves the
opening of the infected teat. Such
treatment should be carried out by
a skilled veterinarian. Milking
tubes are sometimes employed, but
they may spread the disease It will
be difficult for you to control this
disease and my advice to you is to
keep infected animals away from
the unaffected ones, milking the
infected ones last. The hands
should be carefully disinfected be-
tween the milking of each animal
and the barns should be kept clean
and disinfected. Badly infected ami
mails should be disposed of. Consult
your local veterinarian.-C. P.
