FERNS TO BE USED FOR FOOD ARTICLE
 IN BRITISH ISLES

LONDON.-England may be soon eating ferns. A correspondent of the Times suggests that the great areas of bracken fern be turned to ac- count in this country. He says that bread or cakes are prepared from such ferns in the Canary islands. There is a large supply of starch in the under ground stems of the bracken, while the young fronds of the plant are excellent when served like asparagus. In rural England bracken has long been eaten.
 It is also suggested that the prac- tice of cooking the common English weed called Good King Henry as a substitute for spinach be extended. Singing nettles and dandelion are proposed as national foods, and it IS urged that greater use should be made of wild fruits, such as blackberries.

Mining Notes

George Baldwin, the well known mining engineer has raised the neces- sary capital in New York to develop the Green group property on McCar- thy creek and is expected in Cordova this month. He will freight a large outfit over the trail and work large force of men during the coming season.
 Reports received in Fairbanks from the new strike on Goodpaster river states that genuine pay has been To- cated there running from $1.50 to S per square foot, and only ten feet deep. The strike was made on Michi- gan creek and the paystreak has been opened for distance of forty feet up and down the creek and twenty five feet across.
 The Eska creek ocal mines, near Anchorage, is shipping 75 tons of coal per day, and expects soon to increase the shipments to 200 tons daily, The fuel is now hauled three miles to the railroad, but the spur to the mine will be completed in the near future.
 Peter Anderson, the Circle mining man. is a recent arrival in Fairbanks from the outside where he spent the winter. He expects to leave for Circle within the next few days.
 New pay is reported to have been uncovered in the TolStoi country on Flat, Esperanto and Madison creeks. Fifty cent pans are said to have been taken out on Flat.
 Mammoth bones in considerable quantities arc said to be found in the paystreak along Boob creek, in the Tolstoi country.
 Considerable excitement was Occa- stoned recently by the report that one of the by-products of the placer min ing in the TolStoi country was plati- mum, and samples of the metal have been sent outside for assay. If this is correct the supply is sufficiently large to make material increase in the value of the output of the coun- try.
