Mr.. Frank A. Vanderlip, it will be
remembered, purchased about a year
ago the old village Of Sparta, adjacent
to Scarsborough-on-trc Hudson, be-
cause he desired peace aAd seclusion in
his fine country estate and because the
village named for the heroic Greek state
was filed with undesirable citizens.
A.. yan1srlip is well known in WASH
ington, where he came in his early
years with the late Lyman j. Gage. As
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury he
laid the foundation of his stupendous
financial success. He paid good price
for all the holdings and the villagers
were quite content. Mr.. John D..
Rockefeller, jr, recently consummated
another such real estate transaction
when he bought, at top prices, the
ancient hamlet of Eastview, a colonial
suburb of much renown near Tarry-
town, N. Y. Mr.. Rockefeller seeks quiet
and seclusion for Pocantico Hills, chief
seat of the family, and also to provide
a route for the local branch of the
New York Central through the main
street of Eastview rather than through
the Rockefeller acres. incidentally, as

way, our Provincial Geologist. MT. Galloway, indeed, scored a distinct triumph for the Province in that after he had exhaustively explained our British Columbian method of discouraging dubious ventures em- ploying the vehicles of misrepresen- tation to deceive the public, a reso- lution was introduced urging the United States Congress "to go on record as recommending for the Northwest States" a similar system. 1t is true that the form of this resolution was subsequently, amend ed to meet the objection that the majority of the States in the Union have no existing machinery" for the effective application of the British Columbian system, but the complimentary implication never theless remained unaffected. Mean while, British Columbians them selves have long been convinced that the Mineral Survey and De- velopment Act'' is an admirable measure, which will long stand as a worthy memorial to it's originator, the late William Sloan.

will undoubtedly be the main con centration area.
 To purchase the deer from the natives, drive them to the concen- tration camps. establish abattoirs, by-products works, canning equip ment, and to handle the sales of the products in the States will re- quire approximately a $2,000, ,0OO outlay. But the returns will amply justify the investment.
 Reindeer meat is not a competi- tor of beef, as 1t has a distinctive flavor something akin to the dark meat of the Thanksgiving turkey. It can be produced and placed on the market several cents under the present price of beef, and it's vita min content, because of the nature of the feed, will undoubtedly be found to be exceptionally high.
 The fine roasts and cuts will for all time remain a speciality rather than a staple article, except in the lower priced cuts and in the parts suitable for sausage filters. A great deal of the by-products will be used locally in Alaska as winter food for hogs and chickens and al- so as food for the fur-bearing ami mals of the eYer-increasing fur farms.
 On Nov. 1, the reindeer were transferred from the control of the Bureau of Education to the Ex-of ficio Commissioner of Alaska, Gov Parks. The Bureau of Education has accomplished it's objective.
 Through the introduction of rein deer in Alaska 38 years ago, 1t has raised the Eskimos from eaters of blubber to the status of herders of a domesticated animal. It is now necessary for other forces to assist the natives to a higher plane of present-day civilization.
 The Department of the Interior is vitally interested in commercial ization and further development of this interesting, successful experi- ment in practical humanitary civili- zation. The success of this under taking will also put the Alaska Railroad on a paying basis and in- sure the future stability of the great interior section of Alaska whose size is more than 12 time the size of the State of New York.
