The Nenana district offers oppor
tunities for prospectmg, farming, and
trapping that are unequaled in any
other section of Alaska.
Gold placers of known value, close
to Nenana, are producing annually sub
stantial amounts, and there are scores
of streams within the district on which
little or no prospecting has been done.
These streams, until a short time ago
almost inaccessible, are now easily
reached by means of the new Govern
ment Railroad, and undoubtedly soon
will be the scene of much mining ac
tivity.
Farming in the Nenana district has
the advantage of a growing season fully
ten days longer than that of any other
section of Interior Alaska. There is
much desirable land in the district open
to homesteaders, and marketing possi
bilities are being expanded steadily.
Fur-bearing animals of the Nenana
and adjacent districts are noted for the
fine quality of their fur, and trappers
annually bring large numbers of pelts
to Nenana and receive for them higher
prices than are obtained for the average |
furs of other districts. f
Game of all kinds abounds in the
Nenana district, there are scores of
trout streams easy of access, and the
scenic wonders of the district are un
surpassed. The district is the natural
gateway to Mt. McKinley National
Park, and close to Nenana may be
viewed the largest coal ledges in the
world.

resources and possibilities of the Ne
nana district may be obtained from the

PASS OP TEXAS
Although admitting there is a
ot of money in circulation in the ii
loom camps of Texas, John Demos, n
ormer Nenanaite, says, in a letter n
o William Papadopulos, that the F
south is not a good place for those f
;eeking employment- There are a
•hances for the investment of a a
ittle or much capital, if one cares
;o gamble, but jobs are not plenti- a
rul and the pay is not all in i
ceeping with the boom conditions, r
A wire received from Demos yes- t
erday announces his arrival in San r
Francisco, just recovered from the a
du, which laid him up for a month, =
presumably in Texas. The wire also 1
•tates that he had just landed an s
ail lease on 900 acres for five years, =
and that he was in a position to 1
double his money if he cared to let
go. “We should make a killing with t
a little luck,” is the way he puts it. 1

! BIG SURPRISE TO MANY
IN NENANA
I People are surprised at the IN
1STANT ACTION of simple buck
thorn bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed
in Adler-i-ka. ONE SPOONFUL
flushes the ENTIRE bowel tract so
completely it relieves ANY CASE
sour stomach, gas or constipation
and prevents appendicitis. The IN
STANT, pleasant action of Adler-i-ka
surprises both doetors and patients.
It removes foul matter which poi3
■ oned your stomach for months.

A severe earthquake was recorded
i Interior Alaska early last eve*
ing, the vibrations being so pre
ounecd along the Broad Pass and
ichardson trails as to tumble dishes
rom shelves and rock buildings so
s to alarm the occupants and cause
general scramble for the open.
The shock was felt in Nenana and
Iso in Fairbanks, but so slight was
; in the two towns that many did
ot notice it. On the Richardson
rail the disturbance was very pro
ounced, at Millers and Paxsons
nd between those two points the
hock lasting more than a minute,
lishes were knocked from the
helves at Millers and the roadhouse
hook as if it were about to col
apse.
The shock was also severe along
he line south of Nenana, and par
icularly so beyond the end of steel,
drs. Allred, who conducts the Can
:on roadhouse, eight miles beyond
he end of steel, reports that much
excitement was caused at her place
>y the quake, the shock being one '
>f the most severe experienced in ,
hat section in a number of years ,
As nearly as can be ascertained,
lowever, no damage of consenuence
resulted at any point.
