DR.. r. II. Riley Says Salt
In Glass of Water
Is pickup"

Here is a bit of hot weather ad-
vice from DR.. r. II. Riley, Director
of the State Department of Health: ::
"On many hot muggy days." he
said. when you perspire lot and
begin to feel exhausted, drop a
pinch of table salt into glass Of
cool water - cool. not ice-cold -
and drink it slowly. You can re-
peat this as often as you please. 1t
is a reliable pickup against heat
exhaustion.
There's good scientific basis for
the use of salt - ordinary table
salt - both as a corrective and a
preventive of heat exhaustion.
When we perspire profusely as
we usually do in intense heat -
the system loses a great deal of
Of salt. The salt solution helps to
replace it.
Psychologists have always
known that excessive perspiration
drains the system of some of the
salt that is so necessary to COM
tort and well-being. The dizziness
orostration, muscular cramps and
"ther systemic disturbances asso-
ciated with heat exhaustion. fire.
1uently suffered by workers en-
ployed in industries under condi-
tions of intense heat, have long
been matters of concern to en-
ployers and health authorities.
The brilliant idea occurred to
somebody to try the salt-solution

WAINWRIGHT REINDEER
 CORRALLING

The Wainwright Rein e e r Association recently built a new corral of modern design. It strad dies a small hill in such manner that reindeer which are being driven into it cannot see the main enclosure until they are al- ready trapped.
 A vein of excellent lginite coal was located at the corral site, so the fuel problem is solved inde- finitely. There is no driftwood at Wainwright.
 The Wainwright Reindeer Asso citation corralled and handled 19,810 reindeer during Novem- ber This is disclosed in detail ed report recently received by the Field Headquarters of the Reindeer Service, Nome, Alaska, from its Wainwright agent, o. E. Arnold.
 The job of corralling and hand Ing the herd took only ten days. Almost the entire native popula- tion of Wainwright engaged in this large cooperative task, which was typical of reindeer handlings being carried on thru out western Alaska.
 A total of 8,292 lawns and mavericks ware newly marked to ownership; but only GA steers were created, altho the Vain wright natives use about l,200 animals for food each year. A total of 2,605 bull lawns were turned loose from the corral, nearly all of those should have been castrated, according to the Reindeer Service.
 The Reindeer Service is doing everything possible to induce the natives ot castrate lawns. This would fill the herds with better meat stock, make the herds more tractable, and is otherwise de- sirable. Many native groups do not realize that meat stock, in- cluding cattle, sheep, and pigs, is improved by castration of ami mals when they are but a few week old and that reindeer meat can be improved by the same means.
 However, notable progress has been made in educating the nat ives to accept this important principle of proper herd manage ment. Reindeer owners in the Kuskokwim and Unalakleet areas have learned this lesson, and one herd near Bethel was found to contain 2,l4l fine steers last month.

Further Details
 Nome Hotel And Garage Bldg. Fire

In the complete destruction by fire Wednesday afternoon of the Nome Hotel and Nome Garage located on Front Street opposite the Nome fire station, owned by H. F. (Bud) Harper, Nome loos- es one of its largest structures built since the big fire of 1884.
 About the only thing saved from the burning building was the taxi auto owned by Keith Hedrine, which was close to the front door and driven out. Her bert Turner had a narrow call when he attempted to drive out the Nome Motors truck, the flames following the truck as it started out, only to stall at the entrance and was blown to pieces by explosion, young Turn CT getting away from the con- cussion with only his eye brows singed. Turner's own car was out of the garage and parked in back of the building at the time of the fire.
 AS stated in our Wednesday evening issue the fire began from back fire from a gas pump, which was being used to pump oil into the tanks which supply the heat ing system. The garage doors be ing open caused a heavy draft and the explosion spread the fire which rapidly eat thru all DOT tions of the building.
 The twelve occupants of the rooms and apartments above the garage were all out of their rooms except Jack Hurley, who is employed at Lomen Commer- cial Company at nights. He was already up and dressed and was notified of the fire, and immed- lately left the building which was then full of smoke in the hall and stairway.
 Others who were living in rooms or apartments were: Dis trict Attorney Chas. J. Clasby, Mrs. J. S. Stangroom, Ed. Serber, Marco Martinovich, Herb Turner, Jimmy Barnette, Emery Martin, W. R. (Doc) Hinckley, the man ager; Mir and Mrs. Wm. Kelsey, the latter was looking after the hotel during the absence of MT and Mrs. Harper who are in Seattle on a business and plea sure trip.
 All of the above persons lost all their personal effects, and others who left trunks and per sonal goods in the hotel for stoT- age until their return, were also a total loss.
 No one was injured during the fire and no damage resulted to neighboring property, altho the Wien Alaska Airlines office build ing was in danger of being con sumed from the heat and flames, but constant wetting with water from a nozzle saved it.
 A probable loss is estimated al about $50,000, part of which is covered by insurance.
 Manager Hinckley wired MT Harper at Seattle, and received an answer the following morn ing, stating that he was returning to Nome as soon as possible. No thing further will be learned as to rebuilding until further word from MT. Harper is received.
