Alaska has suddenly emerged from the waiting stage. Congress will now be compelled to act, and much thought sho uld be devoted to the future of the big territory. Provisions for the sale and settlement of its lands are highly important, quite as much so as mining laws. A government at, once just aud liberal will be appreciated by the pso- pie. One of the members of She honse committee on territories says early action will be taken. He believes that Alaska should be provided with gov ernment as elaborate as that of Arizona and New Mexico, and that delegate from tie .erritory will be admitted to congress. The opening of Alaska should be for the benefit of the whole people, with ample sayeguards against monopolists. One of the supreme tests of the capacity Of congress at the coming session will be it's Legislation upon this important subject.

4 CHINESE kLONDlkE.

The present rush to the Klondike gold fields revives interest in the ''diggings" in the Sheltuga valley, whose reputed wealth caused many sd- venturers to plunge into the little known regions of Msnchuria. A Ger man-Russiari paper, the Tageblatt, Riga, relates how these gold fields were discovered, and why the world suddenly failed to hear any more about them. The Russian govern ment, we are told, did not like the establishment of republic" which attracted Russian diggers. We take the following from our contemporary's account.
 Tn 1883 Russian prospector dis covered gold in the Sheltuga valley, in Northern Manchuria. He told an en- gineer named Lebedkin of his dis covery, and the latter started with party of workmen to exploit the rich mines. He was, however, an intem- perate man, and died of alcoholism. The men. left to themselves, began to work the mines on their own account. The news of the wealth of Sheltugs soon was told in the countries watered by the Amur and in Transbaikalia, and thousands of men started for the new Fl Dorado. Among them were adven- turers from all parts of the world, Americans, Germans, Frenchmen, En- glishmen-altogether some l2, 900 men gathered there in 1895, among them about 800 Chinese. Drunkenness, inn morality, robbery and murder reigned supreme. At last the diggers got tired of anarchy and elected an ener- setic, honest, but very strict man as their head, forming little republic for the purpose. The gold-bearing country was divided into five districts; for each the newly elected dictator ap- pointed chief His laws were ex- tremely draconic. Theft was punished by 800 blows with cat O mine tails studded with nails, hence the culprit always died under the lash. Men caught importing lewd women received 400 blows with cane. Two hundred blows were administered for disturbing the camp at night aid 100 blow, for drunkenness.
 'Thirty men were hanged at the dictator's orders on the first day of his term, and for two weeks the cat-o'- nine-tails never rested. After that the camp was as orderly as Sunday school picnic. All those who felt that con- munity where order is maintained did not suit them left for pastures new, and there was every hope that the little republic would prosper. But the Rus sian government did not like it. The Russian workmen ran away from the government mines, and the govern ment did not receive its usual amount of precious metals. Russia, therefore, induced the Chinese government to break up the republic, which had been established without the knowledge and consent of the mandarins. A force of 2000 horsemen and 10O0 infantry, with two guns. was sent to the Sheltugs valley. The diggers would not leave, battle took place and the adventurers were killed almost to man. Only 27 escaped. Five hundred Chinese were left to garrison the place, and the Sheltugn gold is now dug only by the aImond-eyed subjects of the 'Sos of Heaven. '"-Litersry Digest.

mature emerge from the apple and 60
INTO the ground, lying in the pupa state
beneath the surface soil among the
grass roots. Samples of the earth, six
inches square, were taken, and the num-
Der OF maggots under the trees varied.
according to the size, from 900 to more
than $4,000 under each tree; the pupae
somewhat resembling kernels of wheat.
Now comes the point which was partic-
ularly interesting to me. The expert
ment was tried as to whether poultry.
II confined to a small range and encour-
aged to scratch, would destroy these
pupae. A large movable wire fence was
plac ID about a tree, whose fruit had
been destroyed by insects. One side of
the fence was raised and so hens were
called into the Enclosure. The fence was
let down and they were confined to the
space around the tree. AS soon as thew
had eaten the corn they naturally be-
gan to scratch for pupae, and in the
course of three or four days it was
found that the latter had disappeared.
AS these insects remain in the pupae
state from the fall of the apple to the
following spring, when they appear, it
may be expected that next year the
number of flies breeding from the ap-
pie maggot will be greatly diminished
In the localities where this plan is fol-
lowed.
From personal experience, extending
over many years, can speak positively
of the advantages of allowing fowls and
chickens free range in apple orchards.
They not only manure the soil and de-
stroy all insects harboring in it, but
they find, for some weeks, consider
able proportion of their own food-the
windfalls, which they devour greedily,
with any grubs they may contain.

auIc ~ cnange, sucn changes snoulu "
made only after due elaboration.
So far as can be done. the farmer
may seek to diversity his products. The
conditions under which the farm work
must be done should determine what
line of farming should be the principal
industry.
One of the first essentials in profit
able dairying is good cows, and in win
ter dairying it is quite an item to have
them come fresh in the fall.
Another item that must be looked
after in good season is good shelter for
the cows. There must be plenty of
room; the quarters must be comfort
ably warm, and yet clean and well venti-
lated, so that there will be no foul odors.
In order to economic time, and in this
way lessen the cost of production, the
quarters should be arranged conven-
iently, both as regards cleaning and
feeding.
To make dairying most profitable lib
eral feeding is necessary. This means
that the cows that are giving milk must
have as much wholesome, nutritious
food as they will eat and digest. There
must be good variety; this is neces-
sary in order to keep up a good appe-
tite. A COW must eat we'll if she is to
milk well. She may eat we'll and con-
vert her food into growth or gain, but
she cannot milk well unless she is well
fed
The farmer who makes the most out
OF his dairy raises all the feed he can,
growing variety, not only to be able
to supply a. variety, but to lessen the
risks of failure. But in addition to
raising all he can, he must be willing,
IL necessary, to buy feed in order to be
able to feed well. understanding that
in feeding his cows well, he is not only
making them most profitable, but at
the same time is feeding his farm and
making it capable of producing better
crops.
Wheat bran, shipstuffs, cottonseed
meal and linseed meal can in many
cases be purchased and fed to dairy
cows on the farm with profit through
the winter, especially when there is
plenty of roughness to go with them.
There must be in addition to this a
willingness to feed and milk regularly;
to take the proper care as regards
cleanliness with the cows and with the
milk, cream and butter, and to give such
management to milk and cream as is
essential to the production of the best
quality of butter.
This means careful attention to de-
tails, so that uniform quality may be
secured. A very little carelessness in
any one of the essentials of butter MAX
Ing will affect the quality, and the diff
ference in price as the effect in such
carelessness is so much difference in the

The Colorado potato beetle receives
its common name from the fact that its
native home was at the eastern base of
the Rocky mountains, where it fed up
on species of wild potatoes quite COM
mon to this region, known as the Sand
bur (Solanum rostratum). 1t was col
lected there and described by Thomas
Say in 1924. 1t was first mentioned as
an injurious insect in 1859 when some
of the early settlers of western Nebras-
ka reported it feeding in large num-
bers upon the Irish potato. We thus
see that the species changed its food
from wild to a cultivated plant, as has
been the case with many of our injur-
ious insects.-Farmers' Review
