SIBERIA POINTS OUT
SUCCESS FOR ALASKA
James Dietrick, Former S, P,
Official,' Writes Wilson
Praising Chamberlain Plan
( Waitilng toe, Boreas of Tbs Jr.rnal.)
Washington, March 7.- Thar ha
been a wealth of Information dlatrt-
tutd during- the' past few weeks about
Alaska and it ability to eupport a
government railroad, but no one baa
contributed a more Interesting: state
ment than a man who is known to
many persona In Oregon and the north
west, a former official of the Southern
Faclffc railroad and the builder of
section of railroad running Into the
' atate of Oregon. 1 As the matter was
quit ably and fully presented then, no
arology Is offered . for extracting the
atory in full from the Washington
Star, la quote: , -
"James Dietrick. a railroad contrae
tor, who has recently completed large
work for the Russian government and
who Is in Washington, preparatory to
undertaking another large task in
Brasll, has sent President ' Wilson
letter urging the- neceslty of a rail
road in Alaska, in which he gives soma
intimate details pf conditions there.
Will Develop Big Domain.
In connection with his letter to the
president, Mr. Dietrick, who is at the
New Wlllard hotel, said today to
reporter for The Star that the con
struction of the proposed Alaskan
railway will people and develop the
vast domain In the northwest and un
doubtedly put a stop to the exodus of
American farmers to Canada. The
- Alaskan railway bill proposes to create
a t4t.O09,O0O fund for the construe
tlon of 1000 miles. of railway In that
country. Mr. Dietrick, who has been
' In Siberia for several yearn, declares
that the government operation of
railroad In Siberia is beneficial and
. that Alaska resembles Siberia in all
, particulars.
"Such a railroad v In Alaska," Mr.
Dietrick said, "will open a great farm
Ing country, which can be taken up
-under the homestead laws, and the
American farmer of a wandering habit
v will no doubt be satisfied with these
new wheat fields. Had the railroad
been constructed some years ago the
chances .are that a ' larxe number of
: the 850,000 farmers who located in
Canada from America would now be
nipping their products from Alaska."
Calls Attention to Siberia. -

PORTLAND'S RESIDENCE STREETS. BORDERED WITH BEAUTIFUL HEDGES
In Mr. Dietrick'
dent he says;
"Some friends have requested me.
I! as a railroad man of considerable

tion, and operation of a railroad In

"Siberia was looked, upon in early
times aa a glacial, moss-covered arctic

the criminal class, and of no other
special use except for its mineral
Wealth. The men located in Siberia
soon found that the soil would pro
duce a greater return to the acre each
year than the soils of the rich Volga
River valley of southern Russia. The
people petitioned their government
. for rail transportation. The Trans

'Washington. March 7. Speaker Clark

bitrarily prevented roll call on a! res
olution to expel Congressman McDer

count of tha Mulhall charges against
him. " ' !
The accusation against Clark was
made by Charles Zueblin. a, former1 pro
fessor of sociology from . Chicago.
"Tha words are a base, malicious
slander of ma and reflect on the integ
rity , of tha house,' tha speaker I de
clared from his rostrum. "It is an
evident attempt to bring disrepute upon
every prominent public man under this
government to represent thorn all' as

swallow every evil thing they read or

HEAD PORTER RETIRES

"The cost of construction and equip
ment of the Siberian railroads ex
ceeds $500,000,000, an average of
$25,000 the mile. The railroad and its
branch lines not only pay, but have
furnished enough in profits of opera
tion to carry out new construction.
"The officials of the government in
formed me during my visit to that
country in November that if we would
construct the Alaskan railroad to uie
Berintr strait their government would
have the northern branch of the
Transslberian railway extended to
harbor Just across the strait from our
terminal and would gladly operate a

An Investigation shows his case Is not

At some hotels. It is disclosed, the

three or four assistants.
At other places the pooling; system

Cairo, March 7. The report that
French woman has recently arrived

Some of the local papers are doing

Cars Xea&g Better anttag.
Although the reward to the garden
culturist does not coma immediately-.
care taken now means better plants
and prettier gardens later on in the
season.
The first thing necessary is to make
sura that the soli is in condition which
guarantees pl-tntgr of plant food.
Soli consists of decomposed rock
mixed with varying proportions of or-
ganio matter.' The organic matter is
called "humus" and Is composed, of
both vegetable and animal matter, and
tha soils being used today are usually
the result of the work of ages, and
this work is continually going on.
Humus enriches the soil in many
ways. It Is chiefly secured through
the decadence of roots, the annual
growth of vegetation, which ripens
and falls down In winter. While
plowing this under adds to the soil's
fertility and increases its power to at
tack and decompose mineral matter,
still many soils need fertilizer to
bring them to highest productive
power.
Two Kinds of fertiliser.
There are two kinds of fertilisers.
natural and artificial, and the person
who is genuinely in earnest about his
garden should study the soil carefully
and if need be seek expert advice as
to the best manner of treating it. The
natural fertilizers are manure and the
artificial mixtures of chemicals and
organic matter. In some cases only
manure Is necessary; in otners re
course must be taken to tha artificial
preparations to secure the best resulta.
Practical experience haa proved that
the food plants demanda are nitrogen.
potash salts, and phosphorus, and these
are secured from various substances
and applied to the oU In varying proportions.
If the soil is in good condition, the
next step for the gardener ia seeing
to it that the garden Is cleared of all
Utter, which ahould be burned. In the
caaa of shrubs and trees copious spray
ing should bo don. These precautions
will do much to stem tha tide of in
sect life. that preys upon plants later
in the season and will also do away
with the troublesome fungus diseases
that kill many sturdy stems.-
Planting la an art. Simply dropping
the seeds on the around covering them
and letting nature do tha rest, works
to a degree, but best results are se
cured when full consideration Is given
to character of plant which is being
given its- start toward growth.
There ara few t rules governing
general, planting, sava two. The first
is "Be sura the soil is properly broken
up to. allow free circulation ot mois
ture and aa -un caked area, for root
growth." '
Tha second Is "See that sufficient
moisture ia always available. Moisture
renders plant food aoluble and makes
it possible for tha roots to absorb nee-

Washington, March 7. Lieutenant
Colonel William M. Siebert, under
whose direct supervision the Gatun
locks and dam were constructed, calls
attention to the fact that the poetic
allusion to the wedding of the waters
of the Atlantic and Pacific by the
canal Isn't applicable' to the Panama
canal. In an Interesting batch of com
ment sent by him to the National Geo
graphic society, he remarks that for
about 32 miles the canal ia ii feet
above aea level and that "water cant
run up hill."
Siebert humorously described the
sanitation experiments on the Zone.
In 1912. he said. Gatun had a pest o
malarial mosquitoes. The health of
ficials wanted to locate the breed-1
Ing places. The scheme waa hit upon
of catching mosquitoes at known
breeding , places, and after painting
them to turn them loose, and when a
batch was caught at Gatun, the color
would tell from what breeding grounds
they came.
"I went down one morning to see
how the Insects were caught for paint
ing," said Colonel Siebert. "Mosquflo
bars were spread from trees, and in
them were millions ready to be sprayed
with a colored liquid. I asked the
sanitary inspector how he coaxed the
mosquitoes in the . nets. . 'We have
other ways, but this time, being in a
hurry; we put a negro inside for bait
He lifted a corner of the net, and there
stood the happiest looking: Jamaica
negro I've ever seen. 'Die is shore easy
money, doss, he said as he grinned.

hour fer just settln around inviting
mosquitoes into a net.
