SvODtiMASS, Vol Observer
The launch gave us a ittle service
for a few days during which we tow
ed over 7 tors of coal, t hen the engine
gave out entirely. We have been
promised a new one by the firm from
whom this one was purchased, but
candidly, we have no confidence in
the promise and even should they
send us an engine it would mean to
us only a repetition of the vexations
and disappointments of the past two
seasons.
fhe launch would he of tne great
est service to us if we had a good
engine. A number of our friends in
this vicinity have promised to help
us hiiv a new one, and it may he this
will catch the eye of sonVe friends in
the States who will help also. Do
nations of any amount will he thank
fully ieieived
At last the Agricultural I-Xpert
tnent Station has succeeded in getting
anothei assistant. This is a position
they have been trying to fill for over
two years, which goes to show that
either good men are scarce, or that
the salary is not sufficient to orawan
experienced man to this climate.
Mr Uvdeman who comes to fill the
position comes from Montana where
he has been employed for a number
of years in the Kugineers I ept. in the
Yellowstone National Park.
He comes highly recommended by
l*rof. Georgeson, and having had
some experience at the Copper Cen
ter l'.xp. Station he will he 1 valuable
addition to the working force here.
He will he stationed at Calsin Hay
with Mr. Kelly and will probably
have charge at that place another
year as Mr. K Uy will have charge of
the dairy at Kodiak.
