THE ANNUAL
 MASQUERADE

The annual masquerade by the White Pass Athletic club is that oc. casion whereby the people of skag. way are offered the opportunity to see the old year out and the new year in under circumstances the jol. Hest and most favorable. This an. nual masquerade has assumed the re, lation of an institution in this mans town and no other form of enjoyment on New Year eve is ever considered. It fulfins all demands-for those who take active part in the dance and in making up the spectacle, and for those who prefer to overlook the scene and just laugh at the fun the others make.
 The six prizes offered for the var. ious degree of merit in the spectacle are on view in Britts window They are for the best dressed, best sus- tained character and most comic male and female.

BEETLES
 VERY LATEST

Gordon Bettles, one of the old tim. CTS of Alaska, who gave his name to the trading post in the Koyukuk, and who has been in on every stampede since the beginning of things in the north, is in Fairbanks preparing for another of his mysterious mushes- this time into what he says is the newest. richest quartz and placer camp in Alaska.
 Bettles Is very mysterious about this particular bit of country. but says he has known of it for years. says the Fairbanks News. He has planned time and time again to hike for it, but has always been distracted and stampeded to something that looked better for immediate results, always putting the thought back in his head that he would go to the promised land when he had finished with the business in hand. He has held on to it as sort of bank ac. count, knowing that it is too inac. cessible to ever be discovered, and. knowing that the gold is there be- cause he says he has seen it, $5O to the pan.
 Gordon is what might be called a wanderer. He has been over Alaska from soup to nuts and expects to do it over again. For the last year he has been with the Hubbard & Elliott people at Valdez, having gone -there after his stampede to the Innoko country with a stock of goods. He didn't like the looks of things there and just kept on a-golng and landed on the coast.
 The year before that he opened upI the Katlshna country, taking up the job after having mushed around in the Beaver Creek district selling  goods to needy prospectors. He was one of the many first locators of Weare and was in the Koyulmk coun. try in 1885 It was in 1898 that he opened trading post at Bettles and he remained there for six years, the longest stop he has ever made in one place.
 Bettles isn't going to sell goods this time, he will be a miner. He says the element of gamble does not enter into this proposition and that he can get all the money he wants to finance the expedition being backed by parties in the east.

To Check SXyarminS.

If the bees did not persist in dividing
their forces 50 frequently, much more
surplus honey could be obtained, and
the beekeepcr himself would feel more
easy about his bees. In producing comb
honey in l-pound boxes, it Is necessary
to actually crowd the bees into the sec
ton boxes, for they seem loath to be
gin work in such small divisions, and
this crowding is one of the incentives
which creates the swarming fever.
When producing extracted honey, abun-
dant room can be given, and the swarm
ing impulse is greatly checked. There
fore, if bees are to be kept far from
the house, and cannot be given much at
tention, 1t is advisable to produce only
extracted honey, which IS done by Civ
ing the bees large combs and plenty of
room, for it matters not whether the
combs are entirely completed or not, as
the honey is taken from them and !he
combs retained to be used.

Root Pruning of Corn.

Deep blowing among the growing
corn, after the roots have met in the
rows, may cause harm; root pruning"
is a mistake; to break the roots checks
the growth and in hot, dry weather
deep cultivation will surely cause the
corn 10 curl, showing injury, while
shallow working will keep it fresh and
green. AS soon as a crust Is formed on
the soil it should be broken up, to ad-
NIT both moisture and air, for the one
dlssolves the fertilizing matter which
is in the soil. and the other affects Is
decomposition and renders it soluble.
So that, after a rain which has crusted
the surface, the cultlvator should be
started as soon as the soil Is Try

No man can afford to head his herd
with scrub bull. The blood is an i'm
portant item, though not the whole
thing. Granted that you see the ld-
visibility Of a pure bred sire, the next
question is how tC care for him. If
you paid 500 to $500 for a bull you
naturally want to give him such care
az to keep him in his prime as long as
possible. 1t is best to have a stall or
shed for the bull where he will be sep
arated from the herd. Give him yard
large enough so that the confinement
will not be too severe, and be sure to
have his yard surrounded by a bull
fence. 1t is as important to keep people
out Of the bull pen as 1t is to keep the
bull in. If possible, 1t is an excellent
thing to give him a pasture If you can
turn him out without having him run
with the mixers. Often there IS pas
ture for the calves or young stock tlat
can be used. Keep him in good condi-
ton, but do not keep him fat enough
for the show ring all the year round
1t doesn't pay. Always give him kind
treatment, but do not let him become
familiar with you.-TeXas Farm jour

Solid Land Values.
