ALASKA NOTES
H. Sturtevant, pioneer resi

Alaska in the Kotzebue sound
gold rush of 1898, dropped
dead on the street Nov. 22, as
a result of a heart attack. He
was 72 years of age.
Carl Lebec, also known as
Charles Lee, committed sui
cide at Atlin, B. C. by shooting
himself, while temporarily in
sane as a result of a drinking
bout, a coroner’s jury decided.
Much interest is being taken
at Cordova in a proposed
shrimp cannery at that place,
which will probably be built
next spring. A survey of the
shrimp grounds shows condit
ions and quality good.

WHY
It Pays Owners to Terrace
Rolling Land
The value of controlling run-off wa
ter to prevent soil wnsli on rolling cul
tivated lands Is recognized lij financial
Interests engaged In loaning money on
farmlands, reports the United States
Department of Agriculture. Two fed
eral furm loan banks require that all
rolling land upon which they make
loans be terraced. One of them em
ploys an engineer to check over farms
on which it 1ms loans, to see that all
terraces are properly built and maln
I tnined.
During the last year three large In
surance companies have employed en
gineers to direct the work of control
ling erosion on farms that these com
panies have taken over, which not only
indicates n realization of the benefits
of controlling run-off water but also
suggests that It may be difficult to
obtain long-time loans on farms where
no effort is made to prevent soil wash
ing away.
Why “Life Flame” Is Not
Merely Poetic Phrase
All living things respire, that is,
take in oxygen and give off carbon di
oxide. This change results from the
burning In the living body of food
stuffs, mainly sugars and fats. While
a tlame burns it likewise consumes
oxygen and fat and gives off carbon
dioxide. Living tilings are irritable
and respond to changes in the world
about them by changing their activi
ties. So does a flame. Living tilings
continuously take in substances and
energy, which are changed in passing
through them, while maintaining them
selves essentially constant. This is al
so true for the flame. Living things
will reproduce their kind. A flame
also, by sparks, may generate other
flames. It is, in fact, very difficult so
to define life as to exclude a tlame
from tlie definition. This is because
both are alike in their fundamental
tendency to maintain an equilibrium,
or steady state, while transforming
mailer or energy that passes through
them.
Why Called "Blue Noiei”
Nova Scotians got their nickname
“Bluenoses” from a variety of potato
known as the bluenose potato, which
at one time was exported In great
quantities from Nova Scotia to New
England. The potato was so called
from the fact that one end was usu
ally bluish in color, and the Yankees
gave the name of the potato to the
people who raised them. It Is some
tini s said humorously that Nova Sco
tians are called Bluenoses because
Jack Frost bestows blue noses upon
most of them.
Why Currency Hat Star
Paper currency Is printed and fin
ished in sheets of 12 subjects. The
finish Includes Imprinting the numbers
in series. It occasionally happens
after a serial number is imprinted that
the bill is discarded because of some
imperfection. Bills discarded are re
placed with a perfect bill which has
been prepared for such an emergency
and bears a number not in the regular
series, but which is distinguished by
u star preceding the number.
Why Lion Wat Made Emblem
St. Mark the Evangelist Is symbol
ized by a lion because he begins his
gospel with the sojourn of Jesus in
the wilderness, amid wild beasts and
the temptation of Satan, ‘‘the roaring
lion.” Murk Is usually represented
seuted uud writing with a couchant
winged lion at his side. Venice adopt
ed St. Mark as its special patron and
protector and thus the symbol became
the emblem of the city.
Why From Left to Right
In the days when capes were worn
Instead of coats men frequently car
ried swords hung at the left side un
der the cape. The cape was held
closed from left to right so that the
right hand would be free to reach for
the sword when necessary. When coals
were substituted and swords were not
! necessary the left side still lapped
over the right because men had be
come accustomed to it.
Why Known a* “LackUnd”
King John of England was known ns
Joliu Lackland because, unlike his
elder brothers, he had no domain in

SPLENDID OUTLOOK
Continued from Page 1
different exposures were all
made in one continuous mineral
zone and this approximately
paralled No. 3 tunnel. We then
determined to drive another
westerly crosscut (No. 201)
100 feet south of No. 101. We
estimated the Unity ore zone
would be cut in 20 feet and
actually exposed it at 21 feet.
The bearing of this cross cut is
N. 75 degrees W. We have
broken into the zone 10 feet
and are not across it. The de
posit here is highly silicious
and heavily mineralized with
pyrite, sphalerite, galena, and
■ome chalcopyrite. Encourag
ing values in gold and silver
were obtained from both of t<he
above crosscuts.
From the information we now
have, it is evident the Unity ore
zone is from 10 to 50 feet in
width and is continuous for at
least 2000 feet. Quite prob
I ably the zone continues soutr -
| easterly in the Big Missouri
! property. It has a slight west
| erly dip and a strike approxi
! mately N. 20 degrees W.
' Summary:
Our work indicates there is
piobably a large tonnage of
milling grade gold ores in the
mineral deposits wester 1 y
from Union creek. The cross
fractures, with their more con
jcentrated values, suggest at
! tractive possibilities for high
grade ore shoots at their inter
! sections with the heavier min
eralized north-south deposits,
especially with the Unity ore
zone. A very interesting point
will be the intersection of the
! “A” vein with the Unity ore
zone. This should occur about
400 feet northwesterly from
the present heading of No. 3
tunnel. Because of the miner
alization, silicious nature, wid
th and continuity, the Unity
ore zone has possibilities be
yond anything so far discov
! ered on the property, for exten
! sive commercial ore shoots.

Why “Nipponese”
The Japanese are known as Nlp
! ponese because “Nippon” Is the name
| hy which Japan Is known to Its la
! habitants. Sometimes the name “Nip
s poll” is restricted to the mainland, or
the Island of Honshu, which Is the
largest Island and the one on which
Tokyo is situated.
Why Amber Becomes Magnet
A bit of amber, rubbed briskly on
a coat sleeve, is able to pick up paper
because It becomes electrified. Brown
paper, warmed and rubbed, will uct In
the same way.
Why the Apostrophe
The apostrophe in the word “o’clock”
13 used to Indicate the omission of
: letters In the expression “of the
| clock."
Why “Tree of Life”
Llgnum-vitae got its name, "tree of
life,” because of a belief that Its resin
could cure serious disease.
