HIDDEN RIVER PROSPECT
 HOLDS GOOD PROMISE

The gold quartz prospect of the Boadeker brothers in the Hidden river district, northwest of Chulitna, has great possibilities, in the opin- ion of C. c. Tousley, who spent the summer prospecting in that locality with Gene Bartholf. MT. Tousley returned to Anchorage last week while Bartholf went into the Will low Creek district, where he prob ably will spend the remainder of the season, reports the Anchorage Times.
 The Boedeker boys have what MT. Tousley believes will make a real mine. They have been en- gagged all summer in developing the property and will remain in the dis trict until snow and cold weather compel them to abandon their work.
 The Boedekers appear to have found the only worthwhile pros pect in the entire district. At any rate, Tousley and Bartholf could not find anything and they cov- cred lot of territory during the time they were out, extending their prospecting some distance from the Boedeker camp.

GREAT NATURAL HARDER MAKES N|N|LCH|K THE
 ARCADIA, COOK INLET

While Seldovia boasts it's mOu- ern waterfront and Kasilof VIII soon have fine dock, being built by Capt. Heinie Berger of the MS Discoverer, Ninilchik refuses to surrender the bun as the Arcadia of Cook Inlet. The man who De- gins to spin the yarn about not cake trees, and buxon Wahinies or the South Seas, will find himelf brought up suddenly with: wait until you appraise Ninilchik.'
 History has it that Czar of Russia in times bygone, growing fed up with arguments about lib- erating the serfs and prohibition, called in one of his sea-farlng cronies and told him to take the agitators and sail west as far as the 18Oth meridian, which he be- lieved to be the end of the world, and kick his passengers off.
 While searching for the day dropped by slippers as they cross the east and west dividing line, the good ship got mixed up in a Cook Inlet tide rip and the an chor was tossed overheard at what appeared to the captain about the most likely spot from which even vigorous agitator could not escape. Setting his passengers ashore he sailed away.
 But he did not know that the same fault in the upper kenai formation that made the creek and provided convention centre for steelheads and rainbow trout, brought up with it seam of coal; that the sand beaches were filled with clans; that Ninilchik was the rendezvous of the moose clan; that the soil grew tons of spuds to the acre and about anything else in the hardy tuber and vege- table family, while salmon of every variety crowded and elbow ed each other along the shore line.
 According to traveller arriving from the Inlet country. he stop ped off for a few weeks at Ninil- chik. He walked a few miles from town and killed a moose. Taking a rib roast he returned. sought of the natives and told them they could share the moose if they would pack it in Nothing do- ing", said the Arcadians. "Bimeby the moose will be grazing in the turnip patch out back and it's net so far to pack the meat.
 With this great natural lalder from which to draw the primary essentials of life, the Ninil3hlk Arcadians see no reason why they should hire a press agent and start a town lot boom and spoil everything by having a ci4y grow up where the bulbous spire oi the ancient Russian church, with its hallowed memories, gives the lit- tie fishing village a touch of Mus covite atmosphere and stands as a reminder that instead of ban- ishment to an inhospitabla s.icre the first settlers of Ninilcails had the edge on the Czar.

have been recommended and wide ly used for the treatment of ear
 mango, several of these are either 1 Iineffectve in killing the mites or
 are of a physical composition that
 makes them unsuitable for the pur- pose for which intended Among the remedies that have been found to be effective and satisfactory in other respects are the following: CD Iodoform, part; ether, 10 parts; and cottonseed oil, 25 parts | CD Oil of cade, part; and cot
 tonseed oil, 8 parts.
 (3) Carbolic-acid crystals (phen- oD, 2 parts; and either cottonseed
 oil or liquid petrolatum, 98 parts. Application of the remedy is by means of pledgets of cotton. These are saturated with the solution and
 the ears gently sWabbed so as to insure the entire inner surface as
 we'll as the adjacent external DOT
 tions. From 10 to IA days later re- peat the operation so as to insure the destruction of any mites that
 escaped the first Urea tment, as well
 as any that may have subsequently, matched from eggs. When the sec ond treatment is given, remove all
 scales, wax, and other debris as thoroughly as possible Proper care should be exercised, however, to avoid injuring any of the delicate structures in the deeper parts of : the ear.
 ERADICATION The only efficient way of hand ling ear mango is to eradicate it, thereby eliminating the necessity of wasting valuable time and eff fort in treating the foxes for the
 disease at frequent intervals each year. The essential points to be observed in successful eradication are as follows:
 CD Use an effective remedy and apply it thoroughly to the entire inner surface of the ears. (2) Treat all foxes on the ranch at the same time, starting in on
 those at one end and going right through the ranch until all have
 been treated.
 (3) Give all the foxes a second treatment after an interval of 10 to IA days.
 (4) DiSinfect or torch the fox houses sometime during the per- iod between the two treatments.
 When ear mange has once been eradicated from the ranch, be on guard to prevent it's reintroduction.
 Foxes coming from other places should be kept under quarantine and treated for ear mange before they are liberated with other anil malls on the ranch.

SAY HENRY FORD
HAS BOUGHT OLD
MILL EQUIPMENT
CCOntinnsd from First Page]

which had been lying idle for about
three years, for a few hundred dol
lars.
Many residents of the State, par
ticularly those interested in objects
of historical value are said to be
highly indignant at the removal of
one of Delaware's historical articles
from the State. The mill equipment,
according to authoritative informa-
tiOn, makes a wonderful museum
piece, but there is no museum in
Delaware, it is pointed out, of ade-
quate size to accommodate it.
The outside of the building in
which the equipment was housed is
partly built of logs, covered with
drop sidings. The mill has been in
the hands of the Burton family, well
known in Sussex, for 100 years. The
equipment of the mill had always
been driven by water power and was
never mOderniZed. The grinding
equipment consists of two separate
machines, one for grinding grain
coarsely and one for grinding it
finely. 1t was constructed before
the more modern equipment, permit
ting adjustment of the grinding sur
faces for different degrees of fine
ness and cOarseness was invented.
According to experts who have ex-
amined the equipment, it was con-
structed between 1890 and 1900. The
present building which housed the
equipment is of little historical note,
for according to experts, the milling
has Outlasted three diff
ferent buildings. The remains of
the former buildings, the first of
which was a log building, may still
be seen, in part. The roads to the
mill, in the past three years have
grown up with brush, weeds and
grass, and in order to reach it, one
must walk down a small path on
foot
Wilmington residents, among
those voicing indignation at the re-
moval of the equipment from the
State, stated that "it was a shame
that some one 1000 miles away had
to buy it."
Attempts, it was stated, were |
made by the same agent to buy an
historic store in New Castle, from
Laird. Mr. Laird refused to
consider the sale of the store, it
vas said.
