TO GULKANA
On Monday evening last a party
consisting of Mrs. V. J. Dwyer and
Mrs. Angus McLead of Strelna; Mrs.
E. M. Bates, Mrs. W. W. Tibbs and
Mrs. J. E. Ketchum, escorted by U.
S- Commissioner Judge O’Connor, and
Deputy Marshal W. J. Feaster, all of
Chitina, and Mr. H. J. MacDonald of
Kennecott, left by motor for Tonsina,
wiiere they were guests of Mr. and
Tvw-s. Jake Nafsted, hosts, of the Ton
sina roadhouse. A generous spread
prepared by the hospitable hostess,
hwaited the guests, to which all did
5ustice and after which dancing was
enjoyed until a late hour. On the
following morning the party motored
to Sourdough, the two cars being
driven by Mrs. Jake Nafsted, the very
capable chauffer of the Tonsina Inn,
and Mr. W- J. Feaster, the genial
marshal. At Copper Center, after
partaking of delicious refreshments
provided by Mrs. Barnes, hostess of
the roadhouse, the company insisted
that she accompany them on the bal
ance of the trip. At first she was
dubious of leaving her post but upon
recognizing the importance of the im
posing escort, whose legal authority
enables them to say “Come,” and you
I'ome, she hastily made hersilf ready
to obey orders. The party then con
tinued its delightful journey to Gul
kfna, where it seemed, upon sharing
the delicious repast there prepared
for it, that each and every hostess
on the “trail” vied with the other
in hospitality and consideration of
her guests. There it was further in
sisted that Mrs. Leak join the party
in its trip to Sourdough and she, like
Mrs. Barnes, after mandate from the
authoritative escort, offered no ob
jections and the trip was continued
to Sourdough where “Mother” Yager
as the kindly hostess of this hostelry
affectionately called, received the
party, assisted by Mrs. Lambert, who
is her house guest. Soon another
feast was spread before the guests,
who, after already partaking of three
most delicious meals, really thought
they could eat no more but, when
they left the table, which was all
they did leave, it is safe to say that
no one would desire to feed that party
when it was in normal eating condi
tipn. The following morning the re
turn trip was made as far as Tonsina
where Mrs. Nafsted again rivaled her
self in hospitality to her guests until
Thursday night, when the party re
turned to Chitina, wholly delighted
with the wonderful scenery all along
the route. In beauty, coloring and
artistic arrangement, it has all the
appearance of a vast art gallery,
where one beautiful picture is hung
making it impossible for the observ
er to conclude which is the most
beautiful. This, added to the hospi
tality of the roadhouses, together
with their many comforts and charms,
makes up a trip which can be recom
mended to any one desiring a most
refreshing and delightful outing.

Sugar Grows on Fir Treas, but at $66 a Pound
WASHINGTON.—Announcement is made by the American Forestry associ
ation of the phenomenon of sugar growing on fir trees in the province
of British Columbia and in the eastern part of the state of Washington. This
discovery was made by Prof. John Da
vidson, F. L. S.; F. B. S. E., botanist
in charge at the University of British
Columbia at Vancouver.
“In the heart of British Columbia
the Indians still gather the sugar as
before the white man came,” says the
American Forestry Magazine, “and it
is further remarkable that so long a
time elapsed before it attracted scien
tific attention. Perhaps the Indians
intentionally held the fact a secret.”
“The analyses made by Dr. F. T.
Shutt, dominion chemist, Ottawa, Canada, and by the bureau of chemistry
here in Washington, are of great interest because of the high degree of con
stancy of composition the fir sugar, or manna, showed,” continues the an
nouncement.
“A letter from the Madison laboratory states that the manna from Doug
las fir contains about 50 per cent of a sugar known as melezitose, which in
small quantities is selling at $66 a pound.
“The sugar appears in white masses of different sizes, ranging from a
quarter of an Inch to two Inches in diameter. The smaller masses form like
white drops at the tips of single leaves. At times several of the leaf tips are
Imbedded in a larger drop. Masses of greater size scatter over the leaves and
branchlets."
The sugar is exceedingly sweet, giving a flavor comparable to the highest
class of the manufactured article.
