CAPITALIZE THE
WINTER MONTHS
Thousands of men in Interior
Alaska now winding up their sea
son’s work face the old problem
of what to do for the winter. Most
of them will take the easy line of
least resistance and fold up and
make a bee-line to the Outside.
They go out with fat pokes. Next
spring they will return with em
pty ones, to start over again just
where they were a year before—
nothing gained, not one step for
ward.
This is altogether unnecessary,
especially' among a great percent
age of those who have the will
to do and will use their heads a
little to create opportunities.
The hills of Interior Alaska are
rich with mineralized deposits
Men who make some study of the
situation and will go out and
stake likely looking quartz pro
perties in the summer can capital
ize their winter months by devel
oping them. The chances are they
will open rich lodes.
It costs no more to live when
working and following up such
opportunities than to lie in a
cabin or play about a town idle
all winter—and far less than go
ing Outside and falling a victim
of the bright lights.
Tremendous possibilities are of
fered in the rock-ribbed hills of
this region. Thousands of acres
of quartz are.as tributary to Fair
banks present fine opportunities.
Present owners of quartz proper
ties who are diing nothing with
them should not stand in the way
of those willing to work.
Properties which have been tied
up for years are doing the own
ers no good and precious time is
passing. The stubborn owner who
will not work nor give others
leases or some other means of
geting to work on the ground,
should awaken to the fact their
day soon will pass and it is better
to have a portion of live and pro
ductive or saleable property than
the whole of a dead one.
Enough attractive propositions '
are within a stone's throw of this i
city to engage the attention of;
hundreds, if not thousands, of j
men. Others can be had by the
seeking.
Now is the hour to plan and get
squared away on winter ventures
that may lead to fortune. The
man who makes up his mind and
resolutely buckles to the task can
capitalize the winter months in a
big way—Fairbanks News-Miner.;
(Editor's Note—The same may j
be said of Nome and the Seward
Peninsula—While we are pleased,
to see quite a number of miners
and prospectors the past year, go-,
ing into the hills, hunting new;
paystreaks and quartz leads, yet
the number could and should be
greatly increased. There are to
many working men coming here
in the spring and getting the best
of the jobs and leaving nothing
or helping in any manner to de
velop the country which they are
