 Everything about Alaska is big. The | following worm story comes from the Wrangell Sentinel: Speaking of worms, the army that has infested this section lay it over anything we have ever seen in the creeping line.

Several of these were found in Walter Waters garden, and Walter housed one in a glass jar and gave it to the editor. We should like to keep the thing as an Alaska pro- duction, but the blamed thing would eat more hay than an OK, and would break a man up.
 Prospectors, when out of reach of as- savers to test their ore, can by the fol- lowing method determine whether the rock to be tested carries minerals or not: When you desire to make the test, pulverize the rock very fine; then take one part of the pulp and two parts of common gunpowder; mix them to- gether with enough water to make a stiff dough; work it up and mix thor oughly together with your hands; then form it into cone or pyramid and let it dry in the sun or near a fire. When dry set the cone on flat stone and put live coal on top of the cone. When it has sizzled and sputtered itself out, the mineral, if there was any in the rock, will be found in the shape Of a button on the stone.-Pacific Miner.

NEW INDUSTRIES.
An Enterprise That Requires Very
.-l Little Capital.

Am Enterprise That Requires Very
Little Capital.
Every town and village should di-
versify it's industries SO far as it lies
i'm it's power, SO when one fails disaster
may not overtake the entire commu-
nifty. During stress Of hard times and
general depression the towns having
diversified industries have suffered
least There is not town or village
in the country that cannot make a
break" in some direction il it's business
men and progressive men will get to-
gether to start a new enterprise of
some description, If only to utilize the
waste resources OF the locality or to
supply the demand for some products
now purchased abroad.
In regard to this matter If prac-
teal suggestion is wanted for an enter
prise that will not cost much to begin
with, that will not require extensive
supervision, that viii admit OF in
definite enlargement if successful and
in which a number Of people can take
an active interest, a canning factory
will meet all these requirements where
there is no such factory already. The
manager Of a successful canning fac
tory In an Illinois town recently gave
the following Information on the sub
ject:
1.-The apparatus required for cam
ming is not intricate or costly. For
about 500 complete outfit with a
daily capacity OF 1000 three pound or
2,7o0 two pound cans can be procured;
5000 three pound or 4,0o0 two pound
cans for $3.50; 1000 to 5000 cans for
5000; 10000 to 1900 cans for $500.
The most expensive outfit in the list
can be accommodate in structure 60

KEEP STREETS CLEAN.


Boys of New York Aid In Town Ina
provement.
In many parts Of New York city boys
street cleaning forces have been or
ganized and it is expected that in the
future rags and papers and banana
Feelings will be scarce in the streets In
the localities OF the members homes.
This is a splendid way to keep the
streets free of rubbish and might be
followed to advantage in every town
and village in the land The organiza-
TONS pledge reads as follows:
1--WE, who are soon to be citizens OF
New York, the largest city on the
American continent, desire to have her
possess a name that is above all re-
proach. We, therefore, agree to keep
from littering her streets and, as far
as possible, to keep others from doing
the same, in order that our city may be
as clean as she is great and as pure as
she is free"
There are SO many ways in which
even young children can help to keep
the streets clean that they can hardly
be named, says the New York Tribune.
Anybody can pick up a torn newspaper
blowing down the street, and more
than likely there is white wing" in
the next block or just around the cor
ner into whose bag or cart it can be.
thrown Anybody can say to the man
who Is tossing excelsior or ashes or
anything that does not belong there
into the street that that is against the
law and he must not do 1t.
Amy one who has once seen a freshly
swept and flushed thoroughfare knows
how a clean street ought to look, and
If any Of the blocks about his home do
not look that way he may be sure some
thing is wrong and the street cleaning
commissioner ought to know about it.
Nobody is too small or too busy or too
insignificant to help with this big work
for town improvement, and every little
boy and girl ought to be proud to weas
a street cleaning badge.
