GOOD NEWS BAY STRIKE
 CREATING INTEREST

Joseph McDowell recently arrived at Iditarod from the lower Kuskokwim with news of the strike in the Good News Bay country
 McDoweIl said the strike was made on Watermuse creek, flowing into the Kugharock river, which empties into Good News river thirty miles from Good News bay. On Watermuse creek, which takes it's name from the Indian who made the discovery, three of the seventeen claims staked by the first party of locators yielded better than ordinary pay during the short time they were worked last fall, according to the Iditarod Pioneer.
 The gold on discovery claim, No. 1 above and No. below, averages about $1.8O to the foot, and is from six inches to three feet in depth. On No. 1 above pay was found in a crosscut of 146 feet. McDowell says five men shoveling In for one month cleaned up $13,4O0.

RUSSIAN PRISON ISLAND
 IS HABITAT OF GHOSTS

Lonely in it's solitude, stern and forbidding, wrapped in eternal mists. drowning and sullen about 80 miles to the southwest of Kodiak stands Chirikof, the island of ghosts. Sur rounded by dangerous reefs and stormy seas, it is at best an uninvit- ing place and is seldom visited un- less stress of storm made landing there imperative.
 Nature has made the place repul- sive and legend had added to it's ter TOTS. Natives passing give the place a wide berth, and nothing short of dire extremity would cause them to land there, preferring to take the most des- perate chances with storm and sea rather than set foot on it's inhospit- able shores, for, legend has peopled the island with ghosts, whose wailings and meanings and the clanking of whose chains strike terror to the stout est heart. Those whom necessity have SOnlpSAASu JO sup IuSIS t6II udTIO"- ing tales of the unseen inhabitants of that desolate place, of the moans and cries which, filled the air during the hours of darkness, and drove them at the first opportunity to seek other shelter. For Chirikof, according to the legends of the Natives, was the prison of the early Russian inhabitants of Kodiak. To this bleak and desolate island were banished the offenders against the Russian law or the edicts of the officials in command of the Russian settlement.
 Tales of horrible cruelties visited upon these unfortunates are handed down in the Native legends; how the offenders, loaded with chains, were landed at Chirikof and left to thei: own resources. There was no escape, and the unfortunates, prey to the hor- rible sufferings from hunger and ex' posture eked out 8 terrible existence until death relieved them of their suf' ferings. Many years have passed

since the last of these unfortunates passed away, but their restless spirits still roam, according to the tales of the Natives, this bleak and desolate island, filling the air with their lamen- tations and the clanking of their chains. So vivid are these stories that even the white men shudder a8 they pass the unhallowed spot, and, like the Natives, they pass it by without landing. No lure of possible mineral wealth induces the hardy prospector to visit this awesome place, it is shun- ned by all, and so dark and sullen it lies untenanted except by the wild fowl and it's ghostly inhabitants-Val. dez Miner.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-Enroll. ment of women in engineering de- partments of American universities and colleges, reflects the changing de- mand for women in industry.

 "Women are being employed as power plant operators in the large central stations of Europe, and have been found entirely satisfactory.

For Wheat, a Good, Rich Seeded

Wheat demands seed bed firm and
compact underneath and with a pulver-
lied surface. Rains will settle the soil
for you ii they have time. otherwise,
you must doiI with roller. A plank
drag Will smooth the surface but il
does not pack underneath. You must
have roller and corrugated type is
best. Roll imme distely before seeding,
but not afterward.
Waste no stable manure this year.
Apply it as fast as it is produced in
light applications over large acres in
stead of in heavy applications on small
acres. A top.dressing of manure in
winter or early spring is great help
to both wheat aud young stands of co-
yer and grain. All old straw stacks
and other refuse should be scattered
very lightly over the wheat in the late
fall or winter, This is no time for
burning straw stacks when they are
needed so much for feed and bedding
and covering for poor land.

Cooperation in Hogging
Down Corn

A shortage of native hogs in a Mid
die Tennessee county existed this year.
Some farmers were not able to secure
all the hogs needed to hog down the
larger corn crop which they had grown.
Experience had shown hogging down
corn to be the most profitable way to
dispose of the corn. Labor for bar.
vesting had been unusually scarce.
The farmers. therefore, made contracts
with men who had more hogs than corn
to let their hogs harvest the corn.
Sometime the hogs belonging to a
neighbor were turned into a field with
the hogs belonging to the owner of the
corn field, charge being made to COW
er the value of the corn consumed.
This plan saved labor for the owner of
the corn and made money for the own.
er of the hogs.

The fortunes of war have brought
wonderful blessings to the arms of our
country in the old world this week and
last and the whole nation is rejoicing
over the most splendid success our boys
and our allies have won. We can al
most see final victory perching on our
banners. and yet, we are warned not
to be too confident, not to relax one
iota in plans and preparations for carry
ing on the war for long time, until
victory does come. And just now the
greatest of these preparations so far
as we here in Fayette county are con-
cernsd is the buying of the Fourth Lib
erty Loan Bonds. Our quota at $166,
900 is two and fourth times what our
quota of the Third Loan was, but we
have been blessed with fair cotton
crop and fine prices for the staple and
our people are better able than for
years to help by buying bonds, and that
our quota will be subscribed and more
is confidently believed. 1t must be
more than subscribed, and the fact of
our having subscribed to the First Loan,
the Second Loan, and the Third Loan
does not exempt US from the Fourth
Loan now on. Every district has its
solicitors, and Capt. E. A. Maddox is
the County Chairman and will take
your subscription and in every case it
ought to be liberal one.

Chairman W. G. Shelton certainly
told living truth to the County Court
Tuesday when he said that hardly a
bridge in the county could be gotten
on and off without a stop or heavy
jolt. The County Court Tuesday adopt.
ed a resolution favoring the use of
metal culverts instead of the small
wooden bridges now being used turnout
the county on the puplic roads. These
were tried few years ago and many
justices then did not favor them, but
experience with a few such culverts
and the increasing price of lumber
made many converts to the use of the
metal culvert which seems at this time
the cheapest when years of service BE-
counted and most satisfactory in other
respects.

Last winter a trunk full of liquor
was captured by the sheriff at Laconia
and he and the Chairman of the county
court and one of the best citizens of
the second district caught the negro
who brought the trunk as baggage
from Paducah. Before the trial of the
negro in circuit court it developed that
the liquor belonged to several infuen.
tial citizens of the second district and
some from Whiteville. The trial was
called in court. the Chairman of the
County Court and the good citizen of
the second district were both in the
courthouse, but for reasons nobody can
tell neither of these good and reputable
witnesses was called to the stand and
the case was thrown out of court. And
