The Nenana district offers oppor
tunities for prospecting, farming, and
trapping that are unequaied in any
other section of Alaska.
i
Gold placers of known value, close
to Xenana, are producing annually sub
stantial amounts, spid 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 Xenana 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 Xenana
and adjacent districts are noted for the
fine quality of their fur, and trappers
annually bring large numbers of pelts
to Xenana 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. Hie district is die 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

That whisky given in large doses
is the best remedy yet discovered
for influenza was the opinion ad
vanced by Rear Admiral Sir Hum
fred Devey Rolleston. chief surgeon
of the British navy and one of the
most eminent of European medical
authorities.
This is the news brought to Ju
neau by Dr. H. C. DeVigne, who re
turned to that city recently from at
tendance at the convention of the
American Medical association at New
Orleans, La.
Dr. DeVighne said that many emi
nent men of the world of medicine
lectures on influenza. There were
many theories advanced as to the
probable cause of the epidemic, but
the doctor said that, frankly speak
ing, not one of the physicians could
say that he had solved the problem.
Sir Rolleston read a very lengthy
paper on the treatment for influenza
and brought large arrays of figures
to support his contention that the
most successful treatment in the
British army and navy was the al
cohol treatment. The eminent sur
geon said: "The most satisfactory
treatment in England was: put the
patient in bed early, keep him hot
and quiet in a well-ventilated room
and keep his system full of whisky."
Many other eminent men recom
mended alcohol in the treatment of
the disease, and there were also
many who did not and thought that
just as good results could be ob
tained from other stimulants.
Dr. De\ itrhne said that the con
vention was attended by 4,500 medi
cal men from all over the world.
There were many interestin'; thinirs
an the program. He was the only
me in attendance from Alaska, and
t was said the only one from the
Morth who had ever attended.
New Orleans was crowded with
aeople and hotel rates jumped from
J2.50 to S10 a day. Many people
vere unable to obtain rooms except
n private houses.

Acting under instructious from
the war department. Master Elec
trician McLouch, officer in charge
of the Fairbanks signal corps office,
has taken in hand the work of get
ting a landing field ready for the
army airplanes which will stop at
Fairbanks next month on the flight
from Mineola field, in New York, to
-Nome. A portion of the baseball
park, which has already been used
as a landing field, will be prepared
for the army machines, which are
expected about July 10.
It is the intention of McLouch, in
co-operation with the park board
and the Fairbanks Commercial club,
to clear and level that part of the
park nearest the X. C. woodpile,
adding an area of about 200 by 300
feet to the portion already in use
and suitable for landing purposes.
The planes are scheduled to start
from Xew York on the first of July.
They will fly straight across country
to Fargo, thence into Canada and
on to the \ ukon. the course through
Alaska being down the Yukon val
ley, with a side flight to Fairbanks.
The visit of the army birdmen
will mark the first sight of an air
plane in the upper town since the
exhibition flight of Captain Martin,
who was brought into the country
a number of years ago as a special
attraction in connection with the
Fourth of July celebration.
The preparation of landing fields,
in connection with the coming army
race, is being looked after by the
signal corps.
