We recently read of the wealth of
Alaska, which has produced since we
purchased it, in 1867. $4,000. 600
worth Of furs. fish and gold up to the
present day, and the unlimited re-
sources in coal awaiting railroads
TO encourage mining. We know that
year after year the worlds wealth
has been enhanced by those great
values. but we seldom think back up

NEW YORK. March 31.-The
Rockefeller Institute for Medical Re-
search, announced today that 1t has
received from John p. Rockefeller ST.
100000 as an addition to its general
endowment for the purpose of organic
ing a department for the study of an
imal diseases. 1t also announced a
pledge of $4,000 from James J. Hill.
to aid in the study of hog cholera.
Heretofore the Rockefeller institute
has confined it's Investigations to re-
search WORK in the fundamental prob
lens of biological science, and to in
vestigations in the field of human dis
eases.
The formal announcement of the
opening in the near future of its new
department contains this statement OF
the scope of the inquiry:
animal diseases are important, not
only because of their economic signi-
fcance, but because of their close re-
lationship to human disease. The loss
to the country entailed by animal dis
eases is to he calculated not only in
terms of animals destroyed but with
reference to the discouraging effects on
enterprises in animal husbandry with
such epidemics as the recent epidemic
of hog cholera always exert. 1t has
been estimated that in the Northwest
alone hog cholera has killed S60,oo0.-
900 worth of swine during the last
year. In the history Of medical
science the work of Pasteur on an
thraX, and the more recent obscrva-
items in this country on Texas fever
in cattle. which opened the door to
present knowledge concerning insect
carriers OF maleria, yellow fever ana
other diseases, are conspicuous Illus
trations of the value Of studies on an
imal diseases.
Significant evidence of the import
ance of such Investigations as the new
department Of the institute will under
take. and of the expediency of under
taking them in the manner proposed.
is to he found in the fact that a contri-
button of s5o.0o0 to aid in the study

DURHAM. N c.. March 31,-That
the West Durham school district will
carry the special tax election on April
18th by at least a two to one vote Is
the prediction of those who have the
election in charge. The West Dur
ham district at the present time has
a special tax of ten cents on the hum
dred dollars of valuation. This special
election will allow the committee tc
levy an additional ten cents.
This additional money will give
West Durham about S2.500 more than
they have had. The district has grown
so rapidly during the past five years
that it has been impossible to run the
schools efficiently on the money 1t the
disposal of the committee.
