It is estimated that gold dredges handled 4,600.000 cubic yards of gravel and the gold recovery was $2,SS00 900. In the preceding year 42 gold dredges handled 4450,00O cubic yards of gravel and recovered gold Co the value of S2,350,000. The gold dredges of Seward Peninsula made an average recovery of 35 cents a cubic yard in 1915; 40 cents in 1914. Most of the dredges of the Yukon districts are working on placers Of relatively high gold tenor and their average recovery in 1915 was so cents a yard. Some attempts at gold dredging were made in Alaska as early a5 1900. It did not however reach a profitable stage until 19O3 when two small dredges were sue cessfully operated in the Seward Pen lnsula. Dredging began in the Forty mile district in 1907 and in the ldit- arod, Birch Creek and Fairbanks districts in 1912 Up to the end of 1915 gold to the value of S12,43O, S94 had been produced by drodges,

Preparing History Of Pioneers.

Mr.. Olav Redal of Souris, N.
D. is working on a Norwegian
Settlement history of Bottineau
county which will be published
early this spring. Mr.. Redal
has been at work Oh this for
sometime and it promises to be
Ia work of great value to the
coming generation. The old
pioneers are falling away fast
and if it were not for work. of
this kind good many would in
a short time be forgotten.
However in this book you
will be able to find. out from
what part in the. old country
each one e~migrated, where they
they first settled in this coun-
try, the hardships they had to
go through and where their
children are. !,
There will come a time when
the later generation will feel
proud to know that they are
defendants of the old Norwe-
gian pioneers who fearing no
thing, left their native land to
seek their fortue and happiness
in a new and unknown country.
Mr.. Olav Redal the author of
this book would like to have
every one that he has NOT been
personally able to see to write
him for blanks on which to
write their biography in order
that he may get this work ready
as early in the spring as posi-
bic.
Write Mr.. Redal now before
you forget it.
The author, we are sure, will
receive the smallest benefit out
of this great work.

MANY boards Of consolidated
schools in the state have solv-
ed the problems of accommodate
ton for the teachers and out
side students by renting or
erecting a suitable building for
them, The principal, when a
married man, has charge of it.
This tends to make a home en-
vironment for the teachers as
we'll as for the students. They
would have access to a good
library of selected books and
other kinds of literature. It
encourages parents of neigh.
boring districts to send their
parents to such schools. The
students also derive much per-
sonal help and attention which
they would not be likely to get
elsewhere. tits the principal
means of retaining such teach
ers as have proven their worth
to a place. Teachers have
other work to do than eat and
sleep when their days work is
completed in the school room.
Ones education is not com
pleted upon graduating from a
normal school or college,. There
is the time one has a prepare
ton for an educational career
and begins to realize what a
boundless field of fruitful
knowledge is within reach. 4
