The KOHLER Automatic [

The Kohler Automatic Power and Light riant r oducc?
standard 110-volt electricity, and therefore allov% you to
use the same standard electric light bulbs and appliances
used in cities. These appliances are available everywhere
and cost less than these of lower voltage.
Coupled with this advantage of the Kohler Automatic is
the feature of “no storage batteries.” This does away with
the trouble and expense of maintaining a large bank of
glass-cell storage batteries. The only battery used with
the Kohler Automatic is a small, automobile-type, ror
starting the engine.
Thus the Kohler Automatic gives you all the advantages
of city electricity with the same convenience—simpiy
turn any button on the circuit and you have electricity
for power or light. Send for illustrated booklet. Come in
and see the plant in operation. ^

2EQL09Y OF THE
EAGLE-CIRCLE
AREA. ALASKA
REGION COVERS AREA 10,000
SQUARE MILES; BETWEEN
TWO MINING CENTERS
j
| The Interior Department an
nouees the issue of a report on the
geology of the Eagle-Circle district,
Alaska, by J. B. Mertie, Jr. This
report, publish d as Geological
Survey Bulletin 81G, may be obtain
ed from the Superintendent of
Documents, Government Printing
Office, Washington, D. C.. for 50
cents. It contains a reconnaissance
map showing the geology of the
: part of the district south of the
Yukon River.
The Eagle-Circle district com
prises an area of about 10.000
square miles in east central Alaska,
of which the southwestern three
fifths is described. Geographically,
this area is the connecting link be
tween the Forty-Mile mining dis
trict, to the southeast, and the Cir
cle mining district, to the- north
jwest.
I This region has interested pros
pectors and geologists for many
i years. Lying between two import- \
| ant centers of mining, it has nat
urally been scanned attentively by I
j prospectors and miners since the
! early 90’s. No big lodes or placers ;
have yet been discovered in the j
; Eagle-Circle area, but several I
smaller deposits have been mined !
for years, and in the aggregate
iconsiderable gold has been recov
ered. The genesis of these depos
its is discussd in some detail in this
bulletin, and consideration is also
given to the larger problems of dis
Icovering new deposits in this and
j neighboring areas. In addition to
imetalliferous deposits, another in
teresting mineral deposit of possi
ble value in the future is oil shale,
jwhich is found along the Yukon
!river near Nation,
i to the geologist this district is of
more than passing interest because
j of the completeness of its geologic
isection. Sedimentary rocks of every
■ period except the Jurassic are
; found, as well as an extensive pre
|Cambrian sequence; and igneous
j rocks of several ages have also been
recognized. This, moreover, is the
(Only area in Alaska where Cam
brian rocks have yet been definite
ly identified. The northeastern
two-fifths of the district, as yet
undescribed except along the Yu
Ikon river, is particularly interest
ing geologically, becaue geologic
jterranes which south of the Yukon
jare greatly metamorphosed occur
(here in a little-altered condition.
! The present report is one of the
j reconnaissance type and treats;
.these geologic features in a gen
eralized manner, recording all
available structural and stratigra- .
phic data but relegating to the fu
ture numerous unsolved problems.
