RICH STRIKE WADE BY FRANK SKEEN AT
 NUKA BAY

Frank Skeen returned from Nuka Bay last evening with two hundred pounds of the richest goldbearing quartz every shown in this vicinity. So rich is the rock in gold that it fairly glitters with the precious min eral, and old timers who have seen the samples state they are better than have been shown in Alaska for many a day.

PLANT SURE DEATH TO RATS
Would Seem II Might Be Utilized to
Rid the World OF a Most
Deadly Enemy.

"why not raise your own rat
poison?" the Philippine bureau OF
science Is asking the people.
It's name is "dioscora hirsuta
blume." and II grows wild throughout
the island lowlands.
The poison content is dioscorine, an
alkaloid which produces paralysis Of
the central nervous system.
The discora is tuber; looks like a
potato and grows like one. II also
tastes enough like the old-fashioned
"spud" to fool Mr.. Rat for d moment
But II has little reaction all of its
own.
The government scientists say that
one nibble is enough to kill "A large
rat. A slice. without proper prepara-
tion. would kill human being.
on the other hand IL has been de
termined that by peeling the tuber
and allowing II 60 stand In running
water for period OF "a hours the
dioscorine content Is washed out and
the vegetable may be prepared for
human consumption In the same man
ner as Is a potato.
When thus prepared II has slightly
sweet taste and is said TO have a most
agreeable effect upon the palate.
Al present one OF the largest OF the
government agricultural schools In the
Philippines Is making use Of the tuber
to kill rats and field mice. which are
proving an increasing menace 10
