of December when is usually too cold for much snow

The subsequent and mists have melted all of the

Another theory is that the bottom of the Pacific may

Alaska to the Japan and China coast 1t known that
many changes constantly going under the surface of

the Japan current and what will be the effect upon the lands
where is plays such leading role
The Chitina leader., 1912-01-27

Positive information is hand to warrant the belief that
the Japan has changed its eastery
direction accounting for the unprecedented weather this
winter along the coast of Alaska and the colder weather along
the coast of California.
Certain is that there has been marked and sensational
change of along the coast of Alaska On
the former trip of the Northwestern from Seattle to Corova
the log book of the steamer showed her be seven miles
ahead of her log reaching Cape ST. Elias This puzzled
Captain Hunter but did not fully convince him. Souhbound
however his log showed him to be forty miles behind between
Cape st. Elias and Cape Flattery.
In order to make there could be the rec
oning upon the arrival of the feghter Edith in Corova
Barry checked her log and found that she

ST. Elias.
This removed all further doubt of marked change in the
current and Agent Barry at notified the Seattle
office that vessels the Alaska could be warned and
also the United States wireless station Cordova that
the Bertha and other vessels could guard against the change

A recent arrival from Fairbanks
states that out of the 80 tons of
meat condemned at Fairbanks by
the government in the first instance,
nine and a half tons were finally
excluded from local consumption
and cooked into dog meat this
month
The seizure was made last fall
and included refrigerated meats be-
longing to the Fairbanks Meat Mar
ket. Because of the remoteness of
the scene from Washington, Chief
Harvey B. Wiley, of the bureau of
Chemistry, commissioned two local
men, Paul Hopkins, assayer and
chemist, and DR.. w. B. Cassels. a
physician, to make the necessary
tests. These men reported that all
but nine and half tons of the meat
was fit for food.
The market COMPANY was then al
LEVIED to put up a bond of $4,000 to
faithfully destroy the meat by cook
ing it into do feed and this was
done under lie supervision of the
United States marshals office.
In the first instance the meat was
intended to supply soldiers at Fort
Egbert. but meantime the fort was
abandoned and the shipment remain
ed on the shippers hands. After
several months wait and negatia-
lions the meat was finally shipped
to Fairbanks. A complaint was
lodged with DR.. Wiley through cor
respondence, and the seizure follow
ed, all of which shows that even is
Alaska the pure food law can be
made effective.

VOLCANOES TO WESTWARD
WORKING OVERTIME

Those returning from trips to the
extreme westward report that the
volcanoes are working overtime and
hat the residents of Kodiak, Unga
ind other points especially on the
Alaska peninsula report a number of
heavy earthquakes during December
The heaviest shock was felt Dec.
30th., beginning at $3.50 and lasting
ZEN seconds. Something like three
hours later still more severe shock
followed and badly scared the peo-
pie. At Unga the residents rushed
outside and the effect was still fur
Their heightened by the bowling of
the wolf dogs and believing of
cattle. During the month there was
recorded eighteen distinct shocks.
These are a reminder of the fact
that Uncle Sam has natures forces
working for MIN in creating new
land to the westward. The only
trouble is that sometimes after a
new island is pushed up through the
sea, before it becomes cool enough
so that the birds can roost upon it.,
it disappears from sight again.
There is one distinct advantage. how
ever, due to the fact that Pinchot
is not enabled to create a forest re-
serve on them. A resident from the
westward suggests that there are a
number of real stationary islands to

coast that should be included in the
