were staked under the placer mining law. The first well at Katalla was drilled in 1901, and a well was drilled on Cook inlet about the same time. There was much activity in the fieds between 1902 and 1904, but the boom collapsed in the latter year, in terest in the oil business being cen tered on new fields in California and the mid-contnent The develop ment of the fields in the north was also hindered by the difficulty of ob- taining title under the public land laws of the United States.
 In 1910 all the oil lands were withdrawn from entry and remained that way until last year when he present oil leasing law was passed by congress. In the meantime but one claim had gone to patent, and during the period of withdrawal prac- tically all development work was lim- tied to that claim, situated in the Katalla field.
 In all Alaska drilling has only been done in the Katalla, Iniskin and Cold bay fields. About 40 wells

structure here has been described as more regular. The seepages nere are numerous and yield a large quantity of oil
 The possible oil fields on Cook in- let have not been adequately tested with the drill, but the stratigraphy, structure, and seepages indicate that some oil will probably be obtained, most likely along the easternmost anticline and belt of seepages in the peninsula between Iniskin and Chin itna bays. Favorable localities may be sought elsewhere within the areas is less promising because of steep dips. or of profound depths of the probable oil sands or of diff. ficulty of access
 The Alaska peninsula has possibili- ties as an oil field. In parts of the Cold bay district the stratigraphy the structure, and the seepages give promise of future production. The few wells drilled near Cold bay give no adequate test of the field. Most of the Alaska peninsula is unex. plored, and possibly the most favor.

Expert Geologists Testify
 As to ALaSku OiL Fields

The following is brief summary of the information contained in the latest government bulletin on the Alaska oil fields, written by Prof. G. c. Martin and published in the current year. Copies of this bulletin may be obtained by addressing the superintendent of documents, gov ernment printing office, Washington, D. c. The bulletin contains maps and plates showing the important fields in Alaska, and is sold at a cost of fifty cents.
 Professor Martin refers to five principal oil fields. four of them be- ing on the Pacific seaboard and the fifth, not essential to be considered herein, on the Arctic ocean The four 0f immediate interest are the Ka- talla or Controller bay. field, the Yaktaga district, the Cold bay dis trict. and the 1nniskin bay district. The last is in Cook inlet, and Cold bay is on the Alaska peninsula.

aggregating in depth 35,0O0 feet have been driven, of which 31 are in the Katalla district. Oil has been pro- duced commercially only in the Ka- talla fields which has yielded since 1904 about 6O,000 barrels of crude oil for use as local fuel and for distillation in a refinery that has been operated since 1912.
 In the Katalla field, large propr- tion of the better located wells have been productive. The results of drill ing have on the whole been rather consistent and have proved the ex- iStence of moderate amounts of oil in at least part of the district, es. pecially within the area of the pat. ented claim. The wells outside of this claim are not numerous enough to determine the outlines of the pro- ductive areas or even to show wheth. CT oil exists in sufficient quantity to pay for exploitation. The widespread and copious seepages indicate that large areas may be regarded as pos sible oil land.
 Professor Martin says that the Yakataga district is certainly worth testing with a drill. The geologic

lures which are sometimes obnoxious;
among these are stray cats, which too
often destroy useful birds. In many
localities one of the worst farm pests
is the crow, which is often destruc-

ems. Crows may be caught in steel
traps, carefully covered with soil and
baited with whatever they are de-
neutrality-suspicious., for example. Such
hawks and owls as are destructive
may sometimes be caught In small

STOLEN GEMS HURT MARKET
FILTERED Russian Diamonds Ruin the
Trade In Holland and
England.

Amsterdam, enthusiastically in
creasing unemployment In the Dutch
diamond industry Is causing some APP
prehension in business circles here.
Last week the number of unemployed
exceeded 1900, and considerable
increase is expected in the near future.
Unfavorable news from the United
States is having a bad influence on
the diamond market. 1t is hoped, how
ever, that abundant American crops,
followed as they probably will be by
more active general business, will lead
to some revival in the demand for
diamonds. The fact that guilders are
low In the American market may also
lead TO some American buying.
Messages from England attribute the
poor trade in diamonds In the British
and Dutch markets to the fact that
many stolen Russian stones have been
sold in various European cities. The
larger number of these stolen Rus
sian gems came by circnitous routes
into the hands of Dutch dealers. Vir.
tually all OF them had to be reground.
II Is the belief among the initiated
here that the market will not be
normal again until these stolen stones
have all been cleared off the market.
