THE SPRING OUTLOOK
With the large canning interests making a bid for
Alaskan labor to the exclusion of imported help and
thereby guaranteeing employment to a large number
who would otherwise remain idle, and the steady advance
in quartz mining along the railroad, the spring promises
to show a marked improvement in general conditions.
Added to this are bright prospects in Nuka Bay, which is
Gradually forging forward until the summer should see
a demand for more labor and many prospects prove in
viting to developing capital.
With more men turning to the placer creeks, where
at the worst, they will recover sufficient gold to carry
them thru the winter, and possibly come out with sizea
ble pokes of gold, the outlook for labor is better than it
was last year at this time.
Improvement in conditions in the States, coupled
with the campaign of advertising being carried out by
the large railway systems and the Alaska Steamship
Company point to an improvement in tourist travel.
Taken all in all, the outlook is very encouraging for
a prosperous summer season with many chances for the
influxes of investing capital.
Whether the President gets the bourgeoise together
in a trade agreement or not there's no denying that Sew-!
ard has had no trouble in getting a general response in
the earthquake movement. Even Java is doing it.

BULLETIN DESCRIBES
METHOD CONTAOLINC
THE CLOTHES MOTH
A bulletin from the Extension
Service of South Dakota entitled
“Dollar Wasters” describes meth
ods of controling the clothes moth.
Woolens to be stored for the sum
mer should be dry cleaned, then
packed in boxes or bags sealed
with paper tape around the cracks.
If garments cannot be dry cleaned,
they should be aired in the sun
and thoroughly brushed inside and
out. Then packed in a trunk or
; box with poradichloro benzine in
' the proportion of one pound to 10
I cubic feet of space. This chemical
! will kill moths, eggs, or larvae,
| when used as directed, but will
have little effect in open boxes,
j closets or dresser ^drawers. The or
| dor evaporates quickly when gar
ments are brought out in the air.
Closets or trunks may also be
fumigated with carbon disulfide or
carbon tetrachloride. The former
is highly inflamable and must be
i used with care. Pour into a shal
low d. .n and set on a shelf above
the clothing to be fumigated. Close
the door and seal the cracks with
moist paper, keeping it closed for
I 18 to 24 hours.
When upholstered furniture be
j comes infested gasoline is the best
| to use. Place the furniture in the
, yard and remove the back lining,
i Saturate the padded material with
i gasoline and allow it to air thor
oughly before returning the pieces
to the house.
Heat will also kill moths. Place
i infested material before the oven
door and cover with canvas or
heavy paper. Use a thermometer
and maintain a temperature of
i 135 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 min
, utes.
