 Mr. Calvin and Mr. Silverman are both we'll known all ovel Alaska in the mining world hay ing been associated with practic. ally every large mining camp in the Territory.

We know about what we have and it is going to be a big thing. We expect to spend some 50 or 60 thousand dollars before we will be able to produce anything. We will build over a mile of areal tramway and are going to put in 8 large con- sentrating plant. We are backed by Seattle capitalists and the war will not effect us one bit.
 This can be placed as the start of the developemeht of one of the richest sections of Alaska, anc while this property is below all o1 the bad water on the Stikine River, being this side of the Grand Canyon, and is very ac cessibfe by water from Wrangell MT.

handsome flower. white or rose or

color for 4 long time. A bed Of these
graceful flowers waving in the early
summer breeze makes q grand display

Such bed calls forth expressions Of

and few other less common, arc

other meal worms are likewise found

Moths. flies, reaches ants and aphides

The action Of para-dichlorobenxe

Gus systems. This property Is readily
manifested when a moth II exposed to

The roots proved to be embedded in
a rich moisture laden leaf mould that
must have been hundreds Of years in
the making, especially when you think
that 1t takes six feet OF leaves TO make

From this observation It was evident
that II we could plant our rhododen-
drons In soil rich with leaf mould

All of which was very good but
where was the leaf mould to be Sc

But If you could see the way those
bushes are filled with buds this very

their roots In rich humus mixed with
soil, feel assured Of their success year
