Oil is reviving the epic glory of

Soon the stark hills of the north

the oil derrick where, twenty years
ago, the sourdough'S pick rang in

Oldtimers who have waited pa

dreams Of easy fortune and for the
chance-taking investor.
For UNCLE Sam, through his land
leasing bill, passed February 25

the northern possession.
And rich oil it is, according, to

Oil is SO plentiful that it flows
freely from the ground, so abundant
that the rivers are covered with it
until boatmen throwing overheard
an unlighted match are unsafe.
These are the tales being told by
those who have just returned.
And for commercial purposes the
oil is easy to obtain. One man who
has already filed his claim and is
now in San Francisco organizing
his company has thousands Of acres
situated on deep water, easy of
access.
He is making arrangements with
large oil companies to buy his out
put. Estimates show that he can
drill his wells at a cost of $3.50 a
foot, as compared with $40 to $25
a foot for wells drilled in the Uni
ted States. Biologists have figured
that on this claim alone 100000
barrels of oil can be produced, sell
ing at 1914 a barrel.
But those who go north expect
ing to find unified claims are likely
to be disappointed, for the old sour
dough, survivor Of the gold craze,

his opportunity, knowing that Alas
ka contained oil sufficient to supply

the entire United States if neces-
sary. For twenty years he has
fought off the agents of the big oil
companies who would have robbed
him of his Woodworking in mines
and sawmills for a grubstake.
Now, with the passing of the land
leasing bill, he is safe. He has filed
his claim and settled down to await
the coming Of the agents of the
corporations to deal with him. And
he will get his price. He knows the
value of his land and has waited
too long to sell it for a song.
All except "Dago Joe,' who is now
dreaming, in drunken stupor, Of
the wealth that might have been his.
'Dago Joe," had one of the richest
oil claims in the territory. Year
after year he had resisted the
schemes Of corporation representa-
tives who sought to get him off his
land.
One night "Dago Joe" succumbed
to whisky. While drunk heswas in

six quarts of whisky. Now he reels

the corporation is preparing to take
millions in oil from his land.
Thus those newcomers who would
find rich claims must go inland
where the going is rough and COM

await the coming of roads and of

Farm Prosperity Aided
By Home Forest, Says
Federal Publication

A well-cared-for home" forest will
make the farm more prosperous, add
to the comfort of the farm home, and
investment, says a new publication,
Forestry and the Farm Income"
issued by the forest service, Emitted
States department of agriculture.
Farm forestry properly practiced
supplies timber for farm needs, en-
ables the owner to market surplus
timber. profitably, furnishes employ
ment for men and teams in winter
makes waste land yield a profit. and
increases the sale value of the farm.
Even if a farmer sells no timber, the
woodland pays, says the bulletin.
The time and money saved by hav-
ing firewood, fence posts, and mate
rial for repair and construction con-
veniently at hand, and the protec-
ton afforded the crops, farm build
ings, and stock are worth conside%-
ably more than the slight tt SIble
and expense of raising and caring FOR
the trees.
Need Not Occupy Productive Land
Farm woodland need not occupy
land that will grow other crops, it
is pointed out On the contrary, the
trees should be located on ground
too poor to cultivate. A little care
given in the winter Or at other times
when the farm work is slack wiz
make such land produce valuable
timber. If fully stocked with trees
and well cared for, an acre of hard
woods should grow from one-half to
one cord of wood yearly, while pine
should produce from to cords.
The prime essential for success in
farm forestry, the bulletin states, is
adequate protection against fires.
Forest fires kill the little trees out
right and weaken fu1l-grown ones, so
that they may become diseased or in
tested with insects. 1t also destroys
the humuS cover and causes deple-
ton of the soil. Burning over the
ground for the purpose of improving
grazing is characterized as an expen-
sive mistake. Although it is possible
to obtain green grass for the stock
a week or two earlier in the spring
by such a practice, many Of the rich
leguminous plants and annual grass
es are KILLED, leaving only the hardy
bunch, wiry, and other course per
ennial grasses.
Discretion in Cutting Necessary
Grazing almost invariably causes
damage to the trees. Experiments
have shown that if the best results
are to be secured stock should be
excluded from the woodland. When
timber is needed, the cutting should
be done so as to cause the least
possible waste of valuable wood and
should not damage other living trees
The first trees to be cut should be
the dead or dying and deformed and
diseased specimens, which shade out
healthy trees. Less valuable kinds,
such as gray birch, aspen, blackjack
oak, dogwood, sow, wood, blue birch,
ironwood, and others, should be re-
moved in preference to the mag
valuable kind. By following this
practice the woodland is con Stant11,
improved and it's value is increased.
Preservatfve treatment will con-
siderably increase the life of tim
Der which is--used for fence posts
and other similar uses, and is dis
t1nct1y worth while. Treatment with

be by far the most satisfactory proc

him on the spot.
Haskamp sent for the Rev. Will
