SOME GOOD POINTERS
FOR CHICKEN RAlsERs.

From Farmers Review; There are
many good breeds OF chicks. sew
eral not very good. and as many good
aud as many poor handlers OF these
breeds. Why Ia Il one person VIII
succeed with the chicken work while
another equally as we'll situated and
started will fail? The reason why
some succeed where others fail would
better be reasons why. for there are
many. Lack OF business methods Is
one main reason. All know. or should
know, what Is meant by business
methods. II you are in doubt. look up
the methods OF some who have been
successful; visit some OF your neigh
bors who are successful: then remem-
Der and profit by the points you learn;
II you can discover no points | would
advise you TO go out OF the poultry
business instanter.
Lack OF regularity In feeds In time

poultry keeper who keeps his flock on

expectation OF profit from their hocks.
Great expectations" but unlikely &c

AS Il was she threw most OF her mon

Builders OF poultry houses should

pen, for all the beasts and birds OF

while I consider the mountain
named Schley and the Italio river
the grandest and most beautiful spot
in the Yakutat country, l must add
that the effort to reach the spot is
most trying and discouraging. 1t is
wonderful region, but the pleasure
seeker can find a beautiful region
about Disenchantment bay, which is
easily reached. The largest ocean
steamer could proceed to the head OF
the bay. The scenery is noble.
Proceeding from the head of the
bay, we followed the old bed of the
fourth glacier for six miles, and went
then to the wild but bare Anclean
hills. From here the view is all
encompassing. With the ocean and
Disenchantment bay in one part of
the picture, Yakutat bay and the
great Malaspina glacier, the Gee Tuck
and Anclean lakes fill in another part.
From here can be seen the forests
and the grass lands and every
stream flowing to the ocean between
Yakutat and the Ackway basin. In
the distance loom up in splendor
Mount St Elias, Mount Fairweather
and Mount Logan. 1t reminds one of
Muir glacier and the Icy straits, and
again of the emerald fields of the
moderate climes.

While making his exploration he
travelled $50 miles by canoe and afoot,
and his discoveries have had the eff
feet Of blasting most of the popular,
but vague ideas regarding the region.
He says: Il first conceived the
idea of exploring the Mount st. Elias
range region when travelling by
steamer along the coast. 1t was then
an unknown region. Previous to the
last trip l had made two journeys
from Yakutat bay to Dry bay, but
both times l followed the ocean beach
all the way. Last spring | resolved
to penetrate the region. l hired two
guides, James Ned and Theodore NJ.
Italio, and procured provisions for
two months. We plunged along the
interior and in the journey to Dry bay
crossed the Ancow, Gee Tuck, An
clean, Dangerous, Italio. Ac6way and
Twin rivers.
"We crossed the Alsek river basin.
The older Indians at Yakutat told
me there had once been a lake six
miles long in this basin, but that since
September, 1899, when a severe earth
quake occurred, the lake had been
dry. The bed of the lake, the Indians
said, was a gold pot containing both
black and ruby sand. To my disap-
pointment the lake was there when
| reached the place. From my exami-
nation of the body of water I am now
satisfied that the earthquake had
little to do with the conditions.
THE glacier which lies in the val
ley acts as a dam. When a slide takes
place the crevices in the ice disappear
and the water fills the lake. When
the summer sun melts the glacier
pack the water seeps away through
the crevices and the lake becomes
dry during an occasional year.

In the basin below the falls there
were countless millions of salmon.
They were piled up SO that at times
many of them were out of the water.
This fnny mass extended from shore
to shore and more than 20 feet down
stream. Out of the mass the fish
were constantly leaping at the falls,
but the water was so low that they
fell back into the basin. When the
water is high and the basin is not
congested with the salmon, they take
the fall at leap.
ITO this basin, during the migra-
tion of the fish, the bears, otters and
eagles come by scores to feed. The
banks are strewn with dead fish The
basin becomes a veritable slaughter
