LOCAL MAN TAKES C. d. DEGREE

]. L. Stafford has just completed
two year and a halfs course in the
Howard School of Chiropractic OF
Chicago. The Howard system en-
braces osteopathy, diet and the many
water cures, such as different kinds
of baths. hot and cold packs, etc.
The chiropractic accepts the brain
as the life center, and claims vitality
and nerve force is distributed down
through the spinal column to every
organ or part of the body. They also
claim that for every disease or all
ment in every part of the body, that
there is corresponding subluxation
in the vertebra of the spinal column.
and the main thing with the chiro-
practor is to adjust the spine and
give the life flow free course.

LARGE PRODUCTION CAUSES
BIG DROP IN TUNGSTEN

Tungsten, which was quoted at s45
a unit about a week ago, is now down
to 500 The immediate cause of the
drop is large supply landed from
South America This, together with
the fact that the production in the
United States has so largely increased
owing to the recent discovery of many
deposits, somewhat darkens the gla-
mour of tungsten mining.

MINING IN ALASKA IN 1915

may therefore be said to have been normal deyelopment ot .ue lnoustry. 1t is ot course true, uoW ever, mat II It had not been TOT the nlgn price ot the metal, the output would have been coll siuerauly less. 1t augurs well tor the future ot the lnuustry that the Alaska copper mines are now sumclently developed to produce so large a tonnage.
 Tin Mining.
 It Is estimated that about 200 tons of stream tin were produced in Alaska during 1915. Much the larger part ot the tn came from the York district of Seward pen lnsula. Here one tin dredge was operated throughout the season oil buck creek. A new dredge was installed on the same creek during the summer and operated lar part ot the season. No re- turns have yet been received from the two dredges operated ill 1914 on Anikovik river, in the same district, but there were pro- Dably also operated. These two are working on placers carrying both tin and gold. Developments were continued on the Lost river lode-tin mine, and there was also some prospecting of other lode tin deposits. There was, however, no production oi lode rln.
 The only other tin mining in Alaska during 1915 was done in .ne Hot Sprlngs district of the lower Ianana basin. Here con-
 -efaDie tin is recovered inci- dental to gold placer mining.
 Anthony.
 The high price ol antimony in 9I5 led to the mining of over 9oo tons of stlDnite ores in Alas ka Nearly 700 tons of this out put came from Fairbanks district, and the rest from Seward penin- sula. It is difficult to obtain any exact valuation of the stibnite ore shipped from Alaska. The evidence in hand indicates that the producer received from SIPS to $I.75 per unit of stibnite. It IS probably reasonable to esti- mate that the Alaska shipments sold for $85 a ton in San Fran cisco. This indicates a value of about $7o,ooo for the total ship ments made in 1915.
 Four antimony properties were operated in the Fairbanks district during 1oI5-the Scrafford, in the Treasure creek basin; the Stib- mite, in the Eva creek basin; the Gilmer, in the Vault creek basin i; and the Chatham creek mine. All the operations were on a small scale. The mining consisted chiefly of making open cuts and digging out the ore, which occurs in shoots, kidneys and irregular masses along zones of Assuring. Most of the ore was broken and hand sorted, and no ore carrying less than 50 per cent of anti mony content of the ore was shipped. The average antimony

SEATTLE BUSINESS MEN
 60 ID. .ALASKA'S AID

During the last week tie rooms of the Alaska bureau of the Seat tie Chamber of Commerce have resen1bled the exhibit rooms of a stationery supply house, due to the campaign that is being pros ecuted by the bureau to enlist the business houses throughout the Pacific Northwest in support of the national administrations measure for an appropriation of $Io,456,ooo for Alaska.
 Seattle citizens and firm are CO., operating with the bureau, and the large assortment of indivi- dual stationery of various firms is typed, sent to the sender for his signature, and then forwarded to either a senator or a represen- tative know to the signer, with he request that the lawmaker support the proposed appropria- ton.
 With every letter is d leaflet, stating briefly the resources and commerce of Alaska
 Many Letters Sent.
 In the last two days personal letters have gone to seventy-five members of congress from per sonal friends in Seattle. Seattle merchants are also writing their more influential correspondents Throughout the states setting forth the value of Alaskan devel- opments to the entire country, asking their aid in securing the support of their congressional delegations for these appropria- tions. Every firm is sending from 30 to 26o individual letters; all signed by the head of the firm. Sos as to avoid duplication the greater number of these letters are all being typed in the office of the Alaska bureau, and all though some of the larger manu- lecturers in the east will receive from three to five letters from diff ferent Seattle merchants, no two letters will be alike.
 ]. L. McPherson, manager of the bureau, in discussing Alas ka's commerce yesterday, said:
 Alaska commerce in 1914 was S63,675,1o5. This sum was $s,- I86,8o2 in excess of our total trade with China, and 20 per cent of our total trade with all the countries of South America.
 Alaska, commerce for IoI5 : will approximate $73,ooo,ooo or about $o,ooo,ooo in excess of 1914.
 This very favorable showing is due in great part to recent leg islation by congress. Further remedial legislation, which it is hoped congress will enact with out longer delay, will have the effect of increasing the business of Alaska many fold.
 Alaska enriched the United States to the beginning of 1918 of S5oo,ooo,ooo over and above all ; cost of our government.

Gold Placer Mining

The oata in hand indicates that the value ot placer gold produced in 1913 was 9Io,5oo,ooo, compar- ed with SIo,13o,ooo Tn 1914. Inns decrease ot output, if borne out by the final hgures, is chargable to the falling of in the output of some of the Yukon camps On the other hand, the developments in the Tolovana district, where gold was discovered in the au- tumn of 1914, indicate that this will become of some importance as producer.
 About AZ dregdes were operat- cd in Alaska during 1915, the same number as in 1914. From the information at hand 1t ap- pears, however, that the value of 2,e gold recovered by dredges was less than $2,ooo,ooo in 1913, compared with S2,35o,ooo in 1914. This falling off is chargeable to the Seward peninsula districts, where about g of the dredges are located. There can be no ques- ton tfiat this decrease of dredge output is but temporary check to the industry as a whole and is due to certaf local conditions. Several dredges that will be op- erated ia 1916 are in process of installation.
 Gold Lode Mining.
 About g gold-lode mines were operated on a productive basis in 1913, compared with 28 in 1914. On the other hand, the value of the gold-lode output has increas- ed tlom p4,8o3,o1S in 1914 to about $6,2oo,ooo in 1915. This increase is to be creulted to the Juneau district, where large de- velopmentS were continued throughout the year. There can no question that the gold-lode output will increase at a rapid rate. This will be due not only to large-scale operations in south eastern Alaska, but also to the encouragement given to lode mining by the railway under con struction from Seward to Fair banks. O
 Copper Mining.
 The tremendus increase in copper output during 1913 has all ready been notrd Nearly four times as much copper was pro- duced as in the previous year, k,i the value was nearly five times as much. The copper was taken from fourteen mines, of which seven were in the Ketch- ikan district, four on Prince Will liam sound and three in the Chit ina district.
 Though the high price of cop per led to the reopening of some of the smaller mines in the coast region, yet it should be noted <hat the increased output was possible only because of the large developments that have been un- der way for several years.
