REMOVING PAINT AND VARNISH |
The most efficient method of re
U' ,ving old paint and varnish is to
burn the surface with a painter's
blowtorch. The heat causes the film
to soften and it can then be scraped
o.Y easily. This method, however,
can only be used on flat surfaces,
and where a slight scorching of the
wood >s not objectionable. A hot
solution of caustic soda (concentrat
ed lye), 1 lb. to the gallon of water,
is also efficient. This should be ap
plied with a fiber (not bristle) brush
until the paint softens. This solu
tion is very hard on the hands, and
also raises the grain of the wood, and
surfaces treated with it should be
thoroughly washed and dried before
repainting.
DOG POISONERS
-o
Seward peaple are on the warpath.
Dog poisoners have been scattering
poison promisuously and many val
uable dogs have been poisoned. A
reward of $5 7 5. is now offered by
the Towui of Seward for the arrest
and conviction of the party or parties
poisoning dogs. Killing of dogs il
legally is a crime under the Organic
Act.
Wrangell with its Earl West as
citv marshal, and Petersburg with
its Hans Wick in the same office,
have had an unenviable record ot
poisoning of licensed dogs. Strange
to relate, since both men had the
“can” tied to them, complaints of
dog poisoning have not been made.
It may be a mere co-incidence, but
the fact remains that dogdom has
been unmolested now for several
months both in Petersburg and
W rangell.
USE OF REINDEER
PRODUCTS INCREASE
-o
According to Robert H. Arm
strong, sales manager of the Loraen
Reindeer Corporation of New* York,
which possesses a herd of 175,00J
reindeer in Alaska, declares that
public acceptance of this food is
growing . Large quantities are be
ing sold in many countries, inclusive
of China. Reindeer tongue is looked
upon as a delicacy, while even the
hair is finding a market for fishing
flies, as it is found to be tubular and,
therefore, floats upon the water.
TACOMA MAKES GOOD RECORD
-o
The Puget Sound steamer Tacoirn
last month completed its fifteenth
year of service between Seattle and
Taconm, covering j 1.196,©61 miles
and carrying 3,007,357 passengers
The Tacoma is Seattle built.
