~ love the wild flowers, SO we got ready
and began to love them. The diff
ference between loving the tame
flowers and loving the wild flowers is that if
you love the tame, garden, flowers you spend
most of your money for fertilizer while if you
going to love the wild, or Semi-civilized,
flowers you spend all your money for books.
Unless you have lot Of books to tell you how
to love them and what wild flowers to love- you
never get anywhere.
The first book to get is Gray's. You buy
Gray's book and go out into the fields and

Gray's book to learn whether the blue daisy
thing is a nice flower and worthy of your love
or one of those happer choruS-grl flowers that
will have you in court for breach of promise
and read all your letters to the jury.

ORGANIZATION PROMOTES MINK FARMING INDUSTRY
 IN ANCHORAGE DISTRICT

Mink farmers in the Anchorage district have organized an associa- tion for the promotion of the mink farming industry in the rail belt. The name of the organization is Kenai and Susitna Valley Mink Breeders Association. It is intended to make the association a real bene- fit to all who are engaged in mink farming, the first objective being the cutting of costs by collective buying of feed and other supplies needed by those belonging to the association. It is believed that ma terial savings can be made by mak- ing purchases in large lots. It also is hoped to reduce costs to the indi- vidual farmer by collective use of cold storage facilities. These are matters which will receive the im- mediate attention of the officers, the question of marketing being left for the farmers to handle in their own way independently.

ALASKA NATIVE BAND HAS TRIUMPHANT VISIT
 TO CANADIAN CITIES

The principal speaker at the meeting of the Chamber of Com merce Monday was Staff-Captain Acton. The president called on the Captain for a report of his recent trip to Vancouver with the Salva- uon Army Native Band. Captain Acton said in substance:
 The Alaskan Salvation Army Band which toured several cities ln the south have now returned to their homes after a most successful campaign. Unfortunately the S.S. Princess Mary was held up by se- were storms, thus delaying the ar rival of the band in Vancouver about 36 hours. This demanded 8 encouragement of plans, as they did not arrive until Saturday evening instead of Friday morning. An of ticial deputation met the band on it's arrival and hurried the members away to one of Vaneouvers lead ing broadcasting studios, where a program was put on the air. This program by the Native band was greatly appreciated and messages of appreciation were sent in to the studio from many sources, includ- Ing Alaska.

RICH QUARTZ STRIKE
 MADE NEAR VALDEZ

Three hundred feet below the surface, 16 inches of solid quartz carrying values in free gold so high that a guess of anywhere from $5,0O0 per ton up would not be an xaggeration-ore so rich that no assay is necessary to demonstrate that there is a fortune in sight ore in which the glittering yellow metal is everywhere apparent in size from small flakes to veritable nuggets. This, says the Valdez Min CT, is the news brought to town last Sunday evening by T. J. De- venney when he returned from the property near Mineral Creek, owned by him and W. A. Dolan, and on which they have been doing devel- opment work for more than two years, and he brought with him a sack of ore that bears out all his as- sertions.
 "A single shot has dissipated all fears as to whether or not the ore goes down in the mine or whether the values are maintained" said MT. Devenny, flor there is the vein, wider and richer than on the sur face. There is no longer any ques- tion but that We have a mine, and in that mine a stake that will pro vide us with all we require for the remainder of our lives-a mine that will give a big boost to the Valdez mining district"
 The vein is a true Assure, with we'll defined walls, indicating that the ore body may go to great depth.
 In driving the several tunnels, particularly the two upper ones, a fairly close account of the average vaues, outside of the payshoots was kept and a number of assays were had. The samples sent for assay were selected to the extent that any sample showing free gold was re- jected, yet the general result was, on the average, about $20 per ton. In the lower tunnel the ore has been tested from time to time by pulverizing and banning, and at no time has this yielded blank. MT. Devenney is of the opinion that the ore, particularly from the portal in for distance, is not so rich as that above, but this is accounted for by the fact that it is considerably farther removed from the payshoot than in the two upper tunnels. However, it is probable that all of the ore outside of the payshoot can be milled at handsome profit.
 MT. Devenney will leave shortly for the property and will continue driving in on the payshoot to ascer- tain it's extent, and as soon as this has been determined, plans will be made to install a mill on the prop erty,
