Mining Notes

It Is predicted that the output for the coming season in the Tolovana will be considerably larger than that of last year.
 Colonel Willard, who was at the Frye hotel, said that the company for long time had been endeavoring to take over the Tatum X Irving proper ties consisting of four claims.
 Almost simultaneously with the signing of papers for the conditional purchase of the Tatum X Irving gold claims by the Granite Gold Mining company of Port Wells. near Valdez, Colonel B. F. Willard, president of the company yesterday received tele- gram from his son, W. k, Willard, superintendent of the mine, stating that large body of ore had been un- covered at the junction of the two properties, says the PoSt-Intellgencer recently.
 Alex Smgletary left Valdez Mon day with crew of men to complete the installation of the mill on the Sweepstakes property at Hartman Fjord. The building for the mill were practically completed some time ago, but the work of putting the machin- cry in place was delayed owing to the unfavorable weather conditions pre- vailing. The work of installing the tram between the mine and the mill will also be started at once the ma terial for the tram being on the ground. and it is expected the stamps will be dropping on ore within the next six weeks. Earl Kinds, who in- stalled the Seacoast and Granite mills, will have charge of the installation of this plant.

TRIBUTE PAID
 ID TEACHER IN
 KUSKOKW

IDTTAROD. -- Mrs. Lottie C. Thorn ton, who returned recently from a journey to the lower Kuskokwim of more than a months duration, was much impressed with the work of John C. Kilbuck, the well known gov ernment agent, whose handling of the natives has been so favorably com mented on by all who have investi- gated it or have had it called to their attention. Says Mrs. Thornton:
 In 1885 John Kilbuck and his young wife came to the Kuskokwim river as missionaries. They learned the language of the natives, and the results of their work today are a de- served reward for their charity, pa tience and industry. For number of years Mir. Kilbuck and his wife were at Point Barrow and Norton sound, engaged in missionary work, but later returned to the Kuskokwim. They were stationed at Bethel for some time, and then moved farther up the river to Akiak.
 "They found the natives living in underground huts, under horribly un- sanitary conditions. Today the na- tives at Akiak are living in large, well-built houses, some of which are two stroies high. They are built in lines conforming to the street. Most of the natives own all the necessities of life, and many of the luxuries Kilbuck has taught them farming and one native alone sold $500 worth of potatoes which he had grown last year.
 "Kilbuck is superintendent of the government reindeer herd, and also distributing agent. The natives de string to own reindeer are required to serve four years apprenticeship At the end of the four years they own upward of fifty deer. During their apprenticeship they are given their expenses, and at the end of the first year they are given few deer which are kept with the main herd.
 Generally fair is held at Akiak between Christmas and New Years day, but this year it did not com mence until January 10. At this time sports are held, consisting of racing the sled deer, shooting, laSSo- ing the wild bull and harnessing and driving him, and foot racing. Ex- pensive and beautiful presents are awarded by the government and many of the traders. For the women there are contests in bread-baking and fur-Sewing. 1t was very interesting and exciting to watch the nine con testants lasSo the wild bulls q climb ed tree.) They succeeded in har- messing and driving them distance of about mile. The prize given for this was large Victrola, presented by the Karl Theile company.
 During the evenings a court is held by the natives in the government school building and every case of de. linquency is looked into and exact justice is meted out.
 Christmas eve attended Christ. mas tree and entertainment at the quaint little Moravian church. The songs and recitations of the little na- tive children and the beautifully dec orated tree reflected much credit upor their efforts, and also those of theil teacher, Miss Virginia Wynne. (Pioneer.)

Poultry Raisers Should Begging Preparing
For Early Settings of Eggs In Spring

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. THE
poultry raiser on form or in city who
wishes To produce fall and winter eggs
with a by-product of spring "%frierS"
should begin now to plan for the early
setting of eggs, say poultry specialists Of
the u. S. department of agriculture. In
the states of the extreme south setting
should be made from the first to the mid
lie of February; in the central group of
state, from the early part to the last
part of February; and in the northern tier
of states. from the latter part of Febru-
lry To- early April. With settings timed
early part of April. With settings timed
IN this schedule the chicks will hatch III
ample time 10 allow their maturity before
.old weather. The pullets from these
broods should lay during the late fall or
early winter when eggs are scarcest.
The setting schedule outlined also will
permit the development of early spring
"friers." The young chucks will be de-
veloped To the point where they may be
turned out on the ground by the time veg
citation Is out, and 80 may augment their
feed with green stuff. The smallest
breeds of chicekns can be Matched later
than those which are larger and slower
to develop.
One difficulty in setting eggs IN spring
nj selected dates If the natural system Of
incubation is followed i in finding broody
hens at the proper times. If natural IN
cuhation j. depended upon exclusively IL
probably will be best for the poultry rans-
er to disregard dates and make settings
whenever broody hens are available. a
good nest for setting is made Of wood, ID
inches square and about 10 inches high,
with a top. The front is open except for
a board 6 inches high. Three or four
inches of damp earth should be placed
in such a nest and on this straw, hay, or
chaff should be firmly packed. The hens

should he busted thoroughly with insect

sprinkle a little powder in the nests.
The suggested schedule can be followed
if IN incubator i used. The ma
chine should be operated in a warm room,
preferably a cellar, as a protection
outside temperature changes. Ii
should be disinfected thoroughly before
being used, with a solution of q reliable
c~oal-tar disinfectant. Instead of using
such n solution a small receptacle con
tanning one-half ounce of permanganate
of potash on which one-half ounce Of for
malin has been poured may be shut up in
the machine. After disinfection the in
cubator should be run empty for several
days To get into good operating condition.
After the eggs are in place the tempera-
ture should be held Mt from 10l ID to
l02 degrees Fahrenheit the first week. 1902
Ia 1913 degrees the second week, and at
103 degrees the third week.
The eggs usually are turned for the
first time at the end of the second day
and twice daily through the eighteenth or
nineteenth day. The eggs are cooled out
side the Matching chamber once daily af-
ter the seventh and up To the nineteenth
day. Moisture should be furnished in ar
.tificial incubation in the south, in high al
titudes, and when the incubator room is
dry. This may be done by sprinkling the
eggs with warm water or by placing q
wet sponge or pan or water under The egg
tray.
During the Matching period carefully fill
the lamp and trim the wick each day.
1t is best to trim the wick by scraping off
the burnt portion rather than by cutting
the wick. The lamp should not be filled
entirely. After the lamp is filled 1t should
be closely observed for a time to make
sure that the flame does not get too high.
