The use made of advertising dur.
ing the war has revolutionized the
ideas Of business men on the sub
Jest of publicity.
Before the Liberty loan drives.
financial authorities said it would
be impossible TO raise moIe than
S500,O0GO for government loans by
o popular subscription. But as
result of campaign of thorough
publicity. the astonishing sum OF
nearly %.00O0O0OD was raised on
one Of the drives, and 5000. .0OO, 900
to S,000.O00.0OO on the others.
Solicitation from house to house
contributed largely to this result.
But the solicitors could never have
done much without advertising.
The solicitor did not often persuade
a prospect to raise his subscription.
The work had been done by adver-
tising.
The loan campaigns were helped
by patriotic feeling. But they were
greatly impeded by the unending
calls for money, and the public
WEAKNESS with drives. People knew
they were making q sacrifice when
they subscribed, as the government
paid only IA per cent interest,
while they could buy bonds on the
market paying six or seven per cent.
Against all obstacles the cam
paign OF liberty loan advertising
made its way, and 1t turned upside
Sfown the previous notions OF busi-
ness men. 1t proved that printers
ink could accomplish what had
seemed impossible.
Business men began 70 think
about all Of this. IF the govern
ment can get such amazing results"
a merchant would say. Why can't
I get them in my business" And
a lot OF them completely revised
their ideas about advertising and
started in with greatly increased
appropriations. They don't regret
1t now. The results appear in the
figures recently quoted, showing
that American business men are
spending three times as much on
national publicity as they were In
1910, and no doubt a similarly in
creased figure on local advertising.
Scientific taxation does not seem
to consist SO much of lowering the
taxes, as In getting the money out
Of the taxpayers pocket without his
knowing 1t. This is not So easy as
formerly.
The recall Is considered a new
tangled notion, but Mother has al
ways exercised it in very loud
voice when the kids wander too far

sed by girls that get on invitation

Business is said to have turned
the corner, but it has not yet been
arrested for overspeeding.

MACKENZIE OIL DISTRICT
 LOOKS GOOD TO MUsHER

That the oil indications in the Fort Norman district in the Mac kenzie River country are good and that there will be a stampede :n there next spring, is the opinion of J. T. Burns, commonly known as Engineer" Burns, who arrived at Juneau recently direct from the far-northern region. He mushed 1885 miles over the winter trails from the Fort Norman district, and a big part of the trip was made after Burns had fallen over a precipice and broken a bone in his foot and injured his hip.
 Upon arrival at Juneau, Burns informed a representative of The
 Empire that he left Prince Rupert in June and struck the Laird river, which empties into the Mackenzie. He followed the Laird to it's con- huence with the Mackenzie and thence to the Fort Norman district. The country, he says, is a rich one, with oil and gas indications show ing for a distance of 300 miles. The country is also heavily mineralized and he found gold and silver quartz prospects that he declares are very rich. He also found placer diggings but said that it was not rich enough to work at the present price of commodities in the district.
 He met many oil locators in the
 district, and a number of prospect
 ors, including the far-famed Jar
 musher and stampeder, Wada. They
 were all very enthusiastic over bots
 oil and gold prospects. The country
 is so big it has hardly been touched
 as yet and much of it has never
 been thoroughly mapped.

Ten miles northwest of the Chil kat property well, being drilled by the Alaska Oil company, is down 1,O5O feet, with a showing of oil and considerable water. A few other wells were drilled prior to the with drawal of these lands from entry. but these operations were strictly wildcat" and, for the most part, eventually abandoned.
 Four 16O-acre claims constituting the Rapid City Oil claim, located about three miles from the Chilkat property, possess the same geological formation and present as good an appearance as the fields afford, the surface showing being very prQmis- ing. The stalking of this group, which was a part of the Old English company's holdings, was made pos sible by the leasing bill, passed a year ago this month.
 The total daily production of the Chilkat company is forty barrels. The crude oil is of the highest grade paraffine base, being A de- grees Baume

OIL FIELDS YIELD
 STEADY HIGH TRADE FLOW

Progress in the development of Alaska's oil industry is outlined by E. C. Brown, connected with East ern interests, who recently returned to Seattle from a six-month's stay in the Katalla district, says the Seattle Alaska Dispatch.
 The Chilkat Oil company is at the present time the sole active oper- ator in the district, producing from ten wells on 160 acres of patented land, the only patented oil claim in the territory.
 The first we'll on this claim was drilled in 1902 and is still steady producer. In all Is wells have been drilled. Five have been abandoned and three small producers are to be cleaned out and put on the pump during the coming spring.
 Producing wells are all shallow, averaging about 900 feet. A test we'll was drilled to depth of 2,3O0 feet, but the sand was never entered, a cave-in causing the abandonment of the work at time when show ing of oil and gas existed. A feature of the fields is the fact that the oil invaribly has been found in shale, oil sand never having been en-

U. S. D00MS BURROS AS PEST
Animals Charged With Destroying tho

Washington.-The lowly burro, en-
shrined in western legend as the
heroic prospector, has been officially
classed as "veritable pest" by the
United States government.
This animal, and it's progeny in
countless numbers, abandoned by it's
former owners, according to Stephen
T. Mather, director of the national
park service, has selected the Grand
canyon Of the Colorado for its habitat,
and the availability Of the canyons

most disappearing.
The burro, Mr.. Mather says, de
stroys the trails, denudes the pastures
Of grass and other forage so that ma
tive wild game, such as antelope, has
been forced out" he adds that ''the
time is not far distant when radical
steps will have to be taken to elm
mate the burro evil" -.
