The Nenana district offers oppor
tunities for prospecting, 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.
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

OMSK, Siberia.—Illiteracy is th<
horror of Russia and it is on this
soil that Bolshevism flourishes, say:
Professor A. A. Ossendoffsky, the
Polish chief of the intelligence de
partment of the All-Russian govern
ment.
He defines the Bolshevik ordei
as: “There is no more law. G>:
forth, burn, pillage, kill and you
will be rich and happy.” The illit
erate and credulous believe this
and after two years the world see5
the ruin of Russia.
| According to the professor, they
; have no axes, scythes, shovels, oi
i nails in Soviet Russia. The coun
!cil of national commissaries is or
dering that all the valuable English
textile machines in Russia be con
verted into such utensils, as there
■ is no cotton in Soviet Russia anti
; all textile works are idle.
Of the chemical industry’ there
trace. All manufactured
i.
is not
goods have been exhausted. Ma
chines are idle.
The professor estimates that at
, the debt of Russia could be paid ur
by exporting its vast supply ol
i timber, and that its great stores oi
' hard and soft coal would suffice th<
i world for 150 years. Russia's sur
Iplus of iron, copper, zinc, naptha
gold, and the wealth in fish of the
! Pacific and Northern oceans ant
.Siberian rivers and its fur indus
jrties could be utilized as a fim
.foundation for any economical ant
financial policy that might be adopt
'ed by any Russian government,
j “But to accomplish this, it i:
] necessary to have normal livinj
conditions, continuity of work ant
assurance of the integrity of persoi
'and property.” says Professor Os
sendoffsky. Toward attainment o
i these conditions, he believes the All
Russian government at Omsk i.
making progress.
“Having freed from Bolshevisn
one-third of Asia," he says, "tlv
Omsk government has preserved un
] touched the whole of the gold re
serve belonging to the former Ru*
isian empire, preserved it for th<
whole of the Russian people. Im
jmense sums have been assigned fo:
the purchase of agricultural ma
'chines and fertilizers. The govern
ment has sworn to convene a con

stituent assembly which shall de- !
cide the age-long question of dis
tribution of land among the peas
ants.
“The Bolsheviki having promised
and actually given land to the peas
ants, began to introduce the com
munal principle into its agrarian
policy and its method of distrib- |
uting supplies, with the consequence !
I that all Soviet Russia has beenj
I shaken by peasant uprisings."
