OFFICIAL REPORT ON ALASKA MINING GOVERNMENT ISSUES BULLETINS COVERING ACTIVITY IN NORTHERN TERRITORY More than $70,000,000 Produced in Fairbanks District—Mines Yielding Many Valuable Metals. The annual bulletin of the United States Geological Survey, Department of the Interior, on the mineral resources of Alaska in 1917—Bulletin 692—has been published in parts numbered from 692-A to 692-G, each part containing reports that can be properly grouped together. Quartz lodes in the Willow Creek district, Alaska, where mining has been done since 1918, have yielded more than $1,600,000 in gold and silver and are still being worked profitably. The character of the deposits and the work done in the district in 1917 are described in a report by S. R. Capps, in Bulletin 692-D. Deposits of gold and copper in the western part of the Talkeetna Mountains are described by S. R. Capps in a report that forms a part of Bulletin 692-D. The western Talkeetna Mountains have long been considered a promising field for the prospector, but the only productive part of it thus far The Hot Springs district, in Alaska, has produced more than $6,000,000 in placer gold, as well as some silver and tin. Mr. Theodore Chapin, in a paper in Bulletin 692-F, describes the occurrence of tin ore in the district, and gives an account of the mining operations there in 1917. Ores of tin are scarce in the United States, and their occurrence in Alaska is therefore of interest. Stream tin has been found in gold placers in the Ruby district at several places, but not in quantities large enough to pay for mining it except as an accessory to the gold. A short note on the tin in this district by Theodore Chapin is given in Bulletin 692-F. The Tolstoi district includes an area about 12 miles wide by 20 miles long, which lies on the flanks of Mount Hurst. Most of the district is in the basin of Tolstoi River, on the branches of which placers that yield gold and platinum have been worked for several years. The topography, geology, climate, vegetation, and animal life of the district, the producing placers, and the economic factors that affect mining are described by G. L. Harrington in Bulletin 692-F. Stream tin, a form of cassiterite, the most valuable ore of tin, has been found in many streams in Alaska, and cassiterite have been prospect-ed and mined at several places in the territory. An account of the tin deposits and tin mining in Seward Peninsula is given by G. L. Harrington in Bulletin 692-G, which contains descriptions of the lodes and placers mined. The graphite deposits of Seward Peninsula have been known for many years, but gold has so long been the NEW METHODS OF PREPARING Government Specialist for Cooking Cucumbers, when usually cheap—much corn, beans, or peas family grows tired of and so by early fall o are being eaten in Not many Americans know their possibility vegetable, but in other are used in the same plant, squash, and o a flavor all their o pleasant change in t The following reca taken largely from f and are favorites o other countries.

Peel and cut l ing out the inside co Deposits of gold and copper in the western part of the Talkeetna Mountains are described by S. R. Capps in a report that forms a part of Bulletin 692-D. The western Talkeetna Mountains have long been considered a promising field for the prospector, but the only productive part of it thus far is the Willow Creek district. The construction of lines of Government railroads to the region has made information concerning the region especially timely and valuable. Mr. Capps gives a sketch map of the region and describes its geography and geology as well as the vegetation, game, and routes of travel. The mineral prospects in the upper Chulitna region lie 15 to 30 miles southwest of Broad Pass and include both gold lodes and gold placers. For several years work has been done on lode claims in this remote region, which will be made more easily accessible by the Government railroads. In Bulletin 692-D Mr. Capps gives a sketch map of the region, describes its geography, geology, vegetation, and game animals, indicates the best routes of travel, and presents detailed descriptions of the claims and prospects. The Kahiltna Valley, Alaska, including the basins of Cache and Peters creeks, was visited in the fall of 1917 by J. B. Mertie, Jr., whose report on his work has just been published in the Survey's Bulletin 692-D. Mr. Mertie gives a geologic sketch map of the region, describes its geography and geology, and presents an account of its mineral resources, which includes descriptions of the placers on many creeks. Though gold is the only mineral thus far recovered in commercial quantities the placers have yielded small quantities of other valuable minerals, which include platinum and ores of tin and tungsten. Deposits of chromite have been known in Alaska for several years, but they became of economic interest only in 1917, when the high price of the ore made it possible to mine it commercially at one property. The chromite deposits of present interest in most valuable ore or tin has been found in many streams in Alaska, and lodes of cassiterite have been prospected and mined at several places in the territory. An account of the tin deposits and tin mining in Seward Peninsula is given by G. L. Harrington in Bulletin 692-G, which contains descriptions of the lodes and placers mined. The graphite deposits of Seward Peninsula have been known for many years, but gold has so long been the most valuable mineral mined there that other minerals have not been much considered by the miner. The location of the deposits and work that has been done on them are sketched by G. L. Harrington in a paper in Bulletin 692-G. The search for the sources of the placer gold found in the streams of Alaska has been a part of the work of the geologists who have been studying and mapping the topography and geology of the territory. A report by G. L. Harrington on the gold and platinum placers of the region near the Kiwalik and Koyuk rivers forms a part of the Geological Survey's Bulletin 692-G. Mr. Harrington describes the geology and mineral rehources of the region, stating the means of communication, timber, coal, and sources of water supply, gives detailed descriptions of the placers and makes suggestions as to the original sources of the metals. Tin in 1918. Tin is one of the few highly useful metals that are practically not produced in the United States proper. The output of tin from domestic ore in 1918 was only 68 tons, nearly all of it obtained from placers in Alaska. The tin imported in 1918, as metal and in concentrates, amounted to 82,854 short tons, the largest quantity yet brought into the country in any year. Deposits of tin ore are found in California, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, South Dakota, Washington, Nevada and New Mexico, but the ore at some of them contains so little tin that it can not be mined with profit.

Deposits of chromite have been known in Alaska for several years, but they became of economic interest only in 1917, when the high price of the ore made it possible to mine it commercially at one property. The chromite deposits of present interest in Alaska are at the southwest end of Kenai Peninsula. A description of the deposit now mined and a map showing its location are given in a short paper by J. B. Mertie, Jr., published as part of Bulletin 692-D. The results of studies of the strata and of the structure in the Matanuska coal field, Alaska, made in 1917, by G. C. Martin, are reported in a paper just published in Bulletin 692-D. The paper includes sections showing the character, relations, and thickness of the beds of rock and coal at many localities, as well as a graphic section showing a tentative correlation of certain coal beds between places specified. The Fairbanks district, in the Yukon basin, has produced over $70,000,000 in gold and has been a source of considerable silver, lead, tungsten, and antimony. The conditions in the district in 1917 are reported in a paper by Theodore Chapin that forms part of Bulletin 692-F. Mr. Chapin gives an account of the operations at the gold and the silver-lead lodes and at the tungsten deposits. A molybdenite-bearing quartz vein on Healy River, Alaska, which has been traced by shallow openings for the length of three claims, is the subject of a brief note by Theodore Chapin in Bulletin 692-F. 82,854 short tons, the largest quantity yet brought into the country in any one year. Deposits of tin ore are found in California, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, South Dakota, Washington, Nevada and New Mexico, but the ore at some of them contains so little tin that it can not be mined with profit. Tin concentrate from Bolivia was handled at four tin-smelting plants in this country, which produced from it over 10,000 tons of metallic tin. A report on tin in 1918, by Adolph Knopf, has just been published by the United States Geological Survey, Department of the Interior, as a chapter of Mineral Resources for 1918 and can be obtained free of charge on application to the Director of the Survey at Washington.

President Wilson is not here to ANAHEIM GAZETTE NEW METHODS OF PREPARING CUCUMBERS Government Specialists Give Recipes for Cooking Them. Cucumbers, when in season, are usually cheap—much cheaper than corn, beans, or peas—but the average family grows tired of them served raw and so by early fall comparatively few are being eaten in American homes. Not many American housekeepers know their possibilities as a cooked vegetable, but in other countries they are used in the same way as are eggplant, squash, and corn. They have a flavor all their own and afford a pleasant change in the diet. The following recipes have been taken largely from foreign cookbooks and are favorites of housewives of other countries. They have been tested by United States Department of Agriculture home economics specialists. Some day, when there are more cucumbers on the vines than can be used for pickles or in the usual salads, try one of these recipes. You may find that your family will like them baked, boiled or fried as well as do the Swiss or the French. GARNISH FOR FISH AND MEATS. Peel and cut a large cucumber in pieces about two inches long. Scoop out one end. Fill with meat or fish sauce and use as garnish and serve one with each portion of meat. The sauce and cucumber, eaten with the meat, makes a good relish. BAKED CUCUMBERS Use solid cucumbers of the same size. Peel and cut lengthwise, scooping out the inside carefully and low. DENIES THE LEAGUE WILL BRING PERPETUAL PEACE Former Federal Judge Henry S. Priest, Democrat, who helped to plan the immense meeting which Senator Hiram W. Johnhon of California, addressed at the Coliseum, Friday night, declared the meeting "was a great patriotic tribute to a very great cause." Judge Priest further said: "The League of Nations is a subject of the profoundest importance that has confronted this people since the declaration of its independence—a question whose answer will determine whether we shall remain independent or again submit ourselves to a condition of vassalage and dependence upon European powers. Are we to survive or perish? "We love peace as fervently as we hate dishonor. If we could by ardent wish raise all the peoples of the world to our high standard of civilization, we would do so with the volubility of a hundred million tongues. But we should refuse with desperate resistance to yield one lot or tittle of the happiness we have achieved through our independence to the martyrdom of a lesser civilization. "It is said the League of Nations will make peace universal and perpetual. This is mere prophecy with no omnipotent power to assure its realization, and is discredited by the history of the past twenty centuries. The most powerful sentiment that has actuated the most advanced civilization has beaten against war for more than 2000 years without effect. "Our generosity and philanthropy is appealed to in its support. We are WELL DESERVED The Praise That Comes From Thankful Anaheim People. One kidney remedy has known merit. Anaheim people rely upon it. That remedy is Doan's/Kidney Pills. Anaheim testimony proves it reliable. Ask your neighbor. T. W. Dean, 303 Clementine Street, Anaheim, says: "I work pretty hard and, no doubt, that is what weakened my kidneys and caused backache. I was in constant misery with a heavy full aching in the small of my back and some nights I didn't sleep well. The action of my kidneys was too frequent and caused me annoyance, especially at night. I read of Doan's Kidney Pills and one box cured my backache, regulated the action of my kidneys and made me feel like a different man." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's—the same that Mr. Dean had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y. THIRD DISTRICT MAY VOTE HIGHWAY BONDS Talk of Raising $750,000 for New Roads. Plans are being made in the third supervisorial district, comprising the northern part of the county, for the formation of a special district to be bonded for enough to build fifty miles of roads. A bond issue of at least $750,000 would be necessary to meet GARNISH FOR FISH AND MEATS. Peel and cut a large cucumber in pieces about two inches long. Scoop out one end. Fill with meat or fish sauce and use as garnish and serve one with each portion of meat. The sauce and cucumber, eaten with the meat, makes a good relish. BAKED CUCUMBERS Use solid cucumbers of the same size. Peel and cut lengthwise, scooping out the inside carefully and leaving the shell one-quarter to one-half inch in thickness. To four cucumbers use: 1 cup bread crumbs. 1 tablespoon butter. 2 teaspoons salt. 2 teaspoons onion, finely chopped. Pepper. If seeds are large, do not use the seedy part. Fill cucumbers, sprinkle some buttered bread crumbs on top. Bake until tender—about 30 minutes in moderate oven. STEWED CUCUMBERS AND SAUCE Slice cucumbers into pieces an inch long and cook until tender in salted water. Serve hot with sauce made as follows: 1 tablespoon butter. 1 tablespoon flour. 2-3 cup rich milk. Yolks of 2 eggs, well beaten. 1 teaspoon vinegar. Salt and pepper. Mix butter and flour in frying pan. When well blended, add milk and cook until rather thick. Pour over eggs and vinegar. FRIED CUCUMBERS Peel and cut cucumbers in lengthwise slices. Roll in flour and fry in deep fat until golden brown. Serve very hot. SAUTED CUCUMBERS AND ONIONS 1 tablespoon butter or drippings. 2 cucumbers. 1 small onion. ½ cup milk or cream. Salt and pepper. Fry onion in butter until golden brown, then add sliced cucumbers and cook until tender. Add cream or milk and season well with halt and pepper. CUCUMBER JELLY 6 cucumbers. 1 pint water. 1 tablespoon vinegar. "It is said the League of Nations will make peace universal and perpetual. This is mere prophecy with no omnipotent power to assure its realization, and is discredited by the history of the past twenty centuries. The most powerful sentiment that has actuated the most advanced civilization has been against war for more than 2000 years without effect. "Our generosity and philanthropy is appealed to in its support. We are asked to make sacrifices that others may be benefitted. What sacrifices shall we make—part with our conception of happiness, sense of liberty and justice, that others may make us bondsmen to theirs? "We have set upon the pinnacle of the world an example of liberty and justice; we have poured out our treasures in benefaction wherever distress, misery and ignorance have found a habitation; we have been the herald of righteousness, liberty and morality to the world. Can we justly to ourselves do more? "It is said if we refuse to become a party to the league, our foreign commerce will be jeopardised. This cannot be true. When other nations want what we make and we want what they make there will be commerce. But this is an appeal to the basest motives. Judas yielded to the persuasion of thirty pieces of silver. Shall our patriotism be betrayed for selfish appeal to the passion of avarice. Let 'us not be steady patriots of the world alone—the friend of every country but our own.'" NEW KIND OF BASEBALL BATS The present-day penchant of manufacturers and others for substitutes threatens even those trusted baseball bats to which every big league hitter looks to perpetuate his fame. The forest products laboratory of the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, has recently been manufacturing experimentally a number of 1 small onion. ½ cup milk or cream. Salt and pepper. Fry onion in butter until golden brown, then add sliced cucumbers and cook until tender. Add cream or milk and season well with salt and pepper. CUCUMBER JELLY 6 cucumbers. 1 pint water. 1 tablespoon vinegar. 1 ounce gelatin. 1 small onion. 2 teaspoons salt. ¼ teaspoon pepper. Pare cucumbers and cut in small pieces. Peel onion, slice, cover with boiling water, and cook with the cucumbers until tender. Press through a sieve. Soak gelatin in ¼ cup of cold water for 5 minutes. Add 2 cups boiling water, stirring until dissolved, then add to cucumbers and onion and turn into mold. Serve with mayonnaise dressing. CUCUMBER SALAD DRESSING 1 cucumber, peeled and grated. 1 egg yolk. Juice of one lemon. 2 teaspoons prepared mustard. 1 teaspoon salt. ¼ teaspoon pepper. Beat egg yolk lightly, add to it the juice of the lemon. Add grated cucumber, mustard, and season to taste. This dressing is most excellent for vegetable salad, meat salad, and fish salad. President Wilson now declares that in bringing home the Smuts plan for a league of nations he was following the footsteps of Colonel Roosevelt. It's a good thing for Mr. Wilson that the Colonel is not here to land on him. The present-day penchant of manufacturers and others for substitutes threatens even those trusted baseball bats to which every big league hitter looks to perpetuate his fame. The forest products laboratory of the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, has recently been manufacturing experimentally a number of laminated wood articles with the idea of utilizing small lumber stock. Baseball bats are among the articles which have been experimented on. In practically every instance the products made from this material have given as good service as those made in the regular way. Whether they would satisfy the critical demands of professionals who inspect their white ash clubs with zealous care is a matter as yet undetermined. The fact remains, however, that the initial success in the experiments cited seem to indicate that there is a large field heretofore developed in which laminated is called to the fact that, while some of the bats have broken under severe usage, the breaks were not in the glued joints, indicating that the artificial joining has been accomplished in an entirely satisfactory manner. Shoe lasts were also made of laminated wood and after undergoing the severest usage in various factories are still serviceable. Hat blocks of a similarly build-up material were tried out thoroughly and proved very satisfactory. Recently constructed specimens of wagon bolsters which were made up with laminations carefully joined just before gluing are standing weather tests well. A wagon company is giving these articles a trial. WHY Everybody Eats at the Exchange Grill Excellent Service and Good Eating A. KLUEWER, Prop. SECTION TWO WATER COMPANY.
