comics built up for storage Of scrap
metal and pipe. Plenty of car and
machine storage space is also avail
able in this end. An example of the
capacity of the shop is the fact that
a large carry-all, two track-type
tractors and a passenger car were
all torn down at once in the shop
last winter.
Aluminium Hay Shed
An excellent example of an alumni
mum building is the new structure
built by John Green on his Blaine
county, Milk river valley farm.
Green feeds lambs and is using the
100 by 40 by 80 foot building to store
chopped alfalfa. The aluminium
sheets are nailed to wooden rafters
which rest on a concrete foundation
wall about 3 feet high.
Heat With Electricity
George Pitch, who was mentioned
earlier as having to wait for plaster
lath, is a neighbor of Green's. He
should be in his new home later this
fall. The one-story house is approx
mately As feet by 80 feet with an at
tached garage. There is a large
living room, dining-room-kitchen,
two bedrooms and bath and a mems
wash and work clothes storage
room. Three more bedrooms and a
recreation room will be built in the
full basement.
The living room has a large double
paned picture window and the din
ing end of the kitchen is enclosed
with modern easement type windows
that al be taken out from the inside
for washing and putting on screens
and storm windows.
Special feature of the home is that
1t will be heated with electricity.
Enthusiastically controlled heaters
which fit into the wall will be in
stalled in each room. Power com.
pany engineers estimate that on the
basis of 10-year average tempera-
lures the cost of this clean, trouble
free heat should not be more thar
1926 a year.

TERRITORIAL GENERAL FUND REPORT BY TREAsURER

The Territory's General Fund was short $56s. s.S70.33 of being able to meet its obligations at the end of November. according to state- ment issued today by Treasurer Oscar G. Olson.
 By the end of the year. accord ing to present indications. unpaid General Fund vouchers will amount to at least $500, ,000.0O, the Treasurer said.
 There was $77,717.10 at the end of November after the books were closed. Against this amount, the Auditors office held vouchers to- talling $647,587.43, leaving the Ter ritory short $569, 9,87O.33.
 Sufficient funds have been with held to meet payment of Old Age Pensioners. Payrolls for Territori- al employees, including teachers, for the month of December will amount to approximately $140,00O which is expected to be met from revenues received. In view of the fact, very little money can be re- leased for payment of other gen eral fund vouchers, Mir. Olson said.

RECORD PLAYERS INTERFERE WITH RADIO RECEPTION

A friendly warning was given local owners of oscillator record players to tune their sets to at least HOO orI 160o kilocycles, and to remove antennae.
 An oscillation record player is one which plays through a radio, and as such ebcomes a miniature broadcastlng station. This is true especially if an aerial is used. The interference with local radio re- ceptlon has become very annoying at times.
 Since the use of an aerial with this equipement is a direct offense against regulations of the F. C. C. severe penalties may be invoked.
