of the three-mile territorial water
strip. Two oil screw steamers of
50 tons displacement were used
and about 10 other small fishing
boats to work the nets. The
mother ship was completely out
fitted with modern canning ma
chinery.
During the season, her operations
were under observation of the
United States Coast Guard's Ber
ing Sea patrol. None of her boats
were found either in or near the
three-mile limit. A rumor that
some of them had crossed into
territori1’' waters between Amak
Island and the mainland was said
to be unfounded.
The Japanese used eight sam
pans in working their nets. Each
sampan had a crew of 10 men to
haul in the nets, and two larger
sampans w’ere used in setting the
nets. These are approximately
250 fathoms long and about 10
feet wide, suspended from a haul

balls about three inches in diam

31en C. Bartlett, Mgr. (Former MgT. Gastineau Hotel, Juneau)
BlJT, believe ME, when
it comes to what I smoke,
I want it right!
You know how it is when a
fellow is accustomed to smoking
a good cigarette and he gets hold
of one that isn't right. He’s
likely to get in a bad humor.
I am a great believer in the
old saying that ’'quality will
tell,” and 1 have noticed that the
things which come to stay are
good things.
You can buy a package of good
cigarettes for 15c. Six cents of
this goes to the Government. So
that outside of the 6c paid to
the Government, you get a little
over two cigarettes for one cent.
The right kind of tobacco, the
right sort of paper—a cigarette
that's pure and good-tasting and
mild — that's the kind I want.
I have been smoking CHEST
ERFIELDS for a long time. They
are mild and yet they satisfy.
