NOME, ALASKA, JAN. 2e, 1917.

More stuff about Alaska is being printed in outside papers this winier than ever beIore even during the va rious gold lushes, acco-ulag to in- formation from various sources. It s not remarkable therefore that a Kan sas City glrl of humble orIg.n but of al ility and striking appearance should conceive the idea of posing as u rich Alaskan from the koyukuk and hav- ing the ulIne Of her life while dong it. Her society dupes dropped her With heavy thud when tney Iea"ueo that she is the aaugnter ot a laborer al not a mIne owner but she may yet do very well by her notoriety. She may md d lucrative job on the vaude- vile stage or may marry some chap who would not have heard of her had she not walked into the limelight.

 Without gong into all of the econ. opic aspects of the matter or at- tempting to discuss the question ex- haustively, some of the evils will be briefly Indicated. Wall street gamb- ling is open to all the objections against other forms of gambling and in addition is to be condemned becau3e of the spacious claims made for it u ut II IS necessary part of our f, ncial system in that it helps 10 provide ready market for the stocks of the companies which play such an Important part in our business life.

 The mashiasry for stock spscula- ton centers in the New York stock exchange. There from ten in the n' rning till three In the afternoon sh,,.es are bought and sold. Radiating from the exchange are telegraph lines which lead to tickers, thousands of them, ia brokers offices, hotels, clubs, bucket shops, saloons and other places to all other c4tIes, even quite small ones, where the eransactions are post ed fl om minute to minute.

Nitrogen is the most important and
most valuable fertilizing clement sup
piled by feeds. and it is in this ole
ment that they show the greatest
variation.
The Connecticut Experiment sta.
ton states that IL was found that the
average mixed fertilizer contained
2.95 per cent nitrogen and showed in
table that eighteen Of ffty-two diff
fercnt feeds contained 1893 per cent.
Among this list is cottonseed and lin
seed meals gluten seed, middlings,
brewers and distillers' products, and
a few of the feed mixtures. 1t is OBJ
vious, therefore, that wise selection
OF feeds enhances the value Of The

important part in farm economy.
