"M00NSHINE" IN FAR NORTH
"Sourdough" and "Hootchinoo" Are
Two intoxicating Beverages Popu.
lar With Many in Alaska.

In Alaska the white man who
spends more than year in that ter
ritory is called ''Sourdough," but
the same name is in popular use to
designate the favorite intoxicating
drink of that region. "Hootchinoo"
is the name of more artistic bever-
age distilled from sourdough. A
correspondent of the New York Med
ical Record, resident in Alaska, gives
some information regarding these
drinks. Sourdough is made by mix
ing a very thin dough of -four and
water, adding yeast and setting
aside to ferment. The fermentation
is fastened by setting the vessel in
a warm place. It is said that the
addition of molasses to the ferment-
ing mass makes stronger prepara-
ton. The mass has a sour smell,
hence the name. This liquid is more
intoxicating than beer, and the laws
of Alaska prohibit its manufacture.
The art of making sourdough is be-
lieved to have originated in Kam-
chatka, across the Boring sea, whence
it spread to the American territory.
To make "hootchinoo," the distilled
sourdough, requires distilling APP
paratus. This is made by taking two
coal-oil cans and connecting them
with pipe. The sourdough is boiled
in one and as the vapor goes over it
is condensed by ice in the other. In
the absence of connecting pipe
gun barrel is used. The correspond
ent says there are many houses in
Alaska where this Arctic circle
moonshine is made.
