You have all at some time read this publi- cation and know that it contains full and accurate information concerning the mineral resources, the industries, and the development needs of the dis trict. No feature of the country is overlooked You all realize that the character of the Magazine makes it q most valuable advertising medium to the outside world. Furthermore it is the only publication devoted exclu- sively to the dissemination of knowl- edge concerning Seward peninsula and what it contains.
