ILLAMAR COPPER
 DISTRICT, ALASKA

In these days of rapid cOnsump- ton Of copper in the manufacture 9 munitions of war, and the conse- gusut hlgh price of that metal, spec ial interest attaches to any discus sion of our national supply of cop per- During the last 15 years, the Prince William sound region, Alas ka. has become an important cop per-produciug district, and the nun Der of productive mines there IS constantly increasing. The Ella mar district, a part of this reSlon' has been the scene of active min ing since 1900, and in order that accurate information concerning this area should be available to the public the United States Geological survey has recently prepared and published a detailed report on 1t. This report COutlius excellent topo- graphic and geologic maps, on a scale of about a mile to the men, and is illustrated by numerous plates and figures. The discus sion of the history of the district and the description of the geo. graphy are of interest to the lay reader; the treatment of the areal and structural geology and the dis cussion of their bearing on the distribution of the ore deposits, as well as the description of the mines and prospects, are more technical.
 The geology Of the Prince Will liam sound region is highly con- plex, and the attempt to read the geologic history of this part of America from the rock formation as they now appear encounters many difficulties. The almost complete absence of life in the Alaskan oceans during the period of deDosi- tiou of many thousands of feet oi sediments has left the rocks practi- cally devoid of fossils, which are so valuable in determining the age Of rocks. Nevertheless, the success sion of the rock formations at FL lamar has been determined, and their determination should aid in dccipheriug the geology of other parts of Prince William sound. Some new conclusions have also been reached concerning the origin of the Euamar copper deposits.
 The report, which is entitled The Euamar district, Alaska" by s. R. Capps and B. L. Johnson, is published as Bulletin 6O5 of the United States Geological survey and may be obtained free by applying to the director.

DRILL STRUCK WOOD
 AT 1000 FEET

One of the first deep wells drilled in the west was put down near Huxley, NsY., by the central Pacific Railway in 1881, in a search for good water. The bor- tug reached a depth of 2,75O feet, but the water obtained was of very unsatisfactory quality. At 1,7OO feet the drill encountered a bed of "petrified clans" and the record states that at 1000 feet well-pre- served redwood timber" was found
