 the whole stock of rails made ready for shipment. The passing of the Solomon road is another chapter in the decline and fall of gold mining in the Seward Peninsula placer de-
 posits This road was built iy c company heavily capitalized and it was planned to reach Council via Solomon river and Casa de Paga. Solomon was to be the great port
 for the interior and docks and whar- yes and warehouses were construct ed Before many miles of road were constructed roundhouse and
 machine shop were erected. the rail-
 road established a new town and
 called it Dickson. The road was
 constructed up Solomon river past
 East Fork and into Casa where 1t
 stopped. The winter following it's
 completion saw a panic and money
 began to get shy and financial diff culties quickly overlook the com pany. When the winter and the
 spring breakup followed, bridges suffered collapse, washouts were frequent and the road operated no farther than East Fork and Big Hurrah. Later operation practically ceased dog and horse teams super seding the locomotive, and except for the annual arrival of Receiver and Manager Gedes, people forgot all about the existence of the only standard guage road on Seward Peninsula.

WOMAN ASSISTS WHEAT CAMPAIGN
 AT SALT LAKE

SALT LAKE CITY-It was ow- ing to the forethought and energy of woman that the United States Food Administration was enabled to obtain recently 175,OO0 bushels of wheat from the Relief Society of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, (Mormons). This store of grain had been saved up against a possible famine and was made available to the government in a time of great need
 The woman who was chiefly in strumental in saving up the wheat is Mrs. Emmeline B. Wells, president
 of the church relief society For
 42 years she carried out the wishes of Brigham Young in the storing of the grain.
 Young, then president of the Nor
 mon church, taught her that some day there would be a famine and he
 urged her to advocate saving grain. Through the medium of paper
 known as the "Woman's Exponent" "
 which Mrs. Wells edited for years, sine preached the storing of grain by the women of the church relief . societies. The original work began
 through the gleaning of the wheat
 fields and grew annually until in later years, funds of the society were invested in wheat, which was sold when prices were high, the money being re-invested when the
 prices were low. Mrs. Wells travelled | to every place in the West where members of the Mormon church had
 colonized, preaching the storing of
 grain.
 , With the advance in transporta- i tion methods endeavors were made
 to stop the practice. but Mrs. Wells has insisted that the work be con- ! tinued The granaries of the relief society are again being filled at the ! suggestion of Mrs. Wells, who is ] still president of the relief society of the church, which numbers 4s,00O 
 i members. ] Mrs. Wells is in her ninety-first
 year She is as active as woman of 4S. She has grandsons and great grandsons serving with the Ameri-
 can forces abroad and one of her
 ambitions today is to fly in an air plane.
