NAMING A CITY.



"I am responsible for the naming
Of Nome City, Alaska" said .
drafting clerk in the office Of the
coast and geodetic survey at Wash
ington, though it was wholly unin-
territorial and none was more sur
prised than I when I saw the name
on the map. 1t arose in this way:
"When tho rush to Alaska took
place on the discovery of rich gold
deposits on the Klondike in the ear
ly nineties the government found it
necessary to make more complete
maps OF that then little known
country. Surveying parties wero
rushed to the field, and as fast as
their notes and plats were sent back
to Washington they were turned
over to this Office to make the off,
cial maps. There were many parties
in the field and the maps were being
continually called for by the gold
seekers; hence our Office was for
some months rushed night and day.
''Now, it fell to my lot to draft
a map Of the Alaskan coast that
runs southeast from Bering strait.
This map was to be made from the
field notes and plats sent by the
surveying parties in that district.
Such notes and plats always con-
tanned the names of prominent fea-
lures in the way Of mountains,
capes, inlets and such.
'Now, in making the tracing OF
the coast down from Bering strait
came across headland for which
neither notes nor plats furnished a
name. Accordingly / made pencil
note at the point, putting the word
fNamer with an interrogation after
it, meaning for the chief, when he
edited the map, to put in the name,
If 1t had one, or to think up one II
1t hadn't. In the hurry Of the work,
and due also to the fact, presume,
that I had written the letter "a in
the word name very much like an
'o,' the matter was passed by the re-
visers and my map sent to the en-
grayers in that shape.
"a few weeks after I was aston
ished, on looking over stack Of
maps just engraved from my orig
inal, to see this particular headland
designated thereon as Cape NomeP
When shortly after gold was discov-
cred in the vicinity and camp es-
tablished there the town took the
name of the cape and is called
Nome to this day."--Exchange.

Tho Modern pIow.

Thomas Jefferson invented the
modern plow. There were plows, of
course, thousands of years before
the time of the sage of Monticello,
but he first laid down the mathe-
matical principles that underlie the
construction of the plow and 80 en-
abled any blacksmith to make one.
A plow consists of two wedges, a
cutting and lifting wedge, and
Jefferson discovered and enunciated
the proportions Of each and the re-
lations each bore to the other. Be-
fore his day no two smiths made
plows alike. Now they are all made
in accordance with mathematical
formula.

CHEESE AS A FOOD.
A Coed Word For the Much MaIigned
Welsh Rabbit.

A Good Word For the Much MaIigned
Welsh Rabbit.
According to a circular issued by the
bureau or animal industry, United
Etates department of agriculture. we
make mistake In not eating more
cheese. Welsh rabbits and other
cheese products. Concerning the value
Of cheese as an article of diet 1t is stat
ed that one pound Of cheese has near
ly the same food value as two pounds
Of fresh beef or any other fresh meat.
II is worth as much as or more than
pound of ham and is more digesti-
BILE. 1t Is equal to two pounds OF eggs
or three pounds of fish.
Heretofore. 1t is stated, cheese has
seldom been regarded seriously by
consumers of any class in the United
Stntes as possible cheap staple food.
All consumers of cheese, with very
few exceptions. use 1t as a luxury in
small quantities at comparatively rare
intervals. While lin the aggregate a
large quantity of cheese Is eaten in
this country. the total quantity is new
ertheless almost negligible when com
pared with some other products Of less
food value and inferior palatability.
Experiments conducted by govern
ment scientists associated with the de-
partment OF agriculture have led them
to advocate the enting of cheese ON
elets, macaroni and cheese and even
warmed up potatoes cooked with
cheese.
Cheese can no longer be discrimi-
that 1t is not heaIthful food the
report concludes. ''The absolute lack
OF any disturbance of the general
health Of the subjects used in the ex-
periments is proof that cheese can be
eaten in larger quantities without dan
ger to health" ~,
