Scratch-gold from the storied hills, returned disappointed. -While the rewards to the individual may havé been = small, there is suggestion of living wages to many in.the estimate of © the State Mineralogist, Walter Bradley, that approximately one million dollars in gold was taken from Northern California by itinerants of both sexes who tried their hands at mining’ last year. The average is one hundred dollars apiece, though the story includes many who were stranded in the hills while others received the larger reward. Yet if the foothills contributed a million dollars toward solving the preblems of living for ten thousand people there is something in the fact for which Califoinians may be grateful.

The gold revival stories come in from other points. Up in Washington it is reported hardware stores ran out of pans to supply the would-be prospectors and some four hundred men are now waiting for the spring that they may work the likely bars on the Columbia. .The more successful of the gold seekers in north central Washington, it is said, are picking up from $1 to $10 a day with the aid of their picks and pans. From Australia comes a report of a new electyolytic process developed by a Melbourne engineer by which it is hoped to obtain new gold from dumps scattered over abandoned gold fields in Vicotria. And even Bulgaria, a country not associated with gold, according to cables, is _having its rush. At the little town of Borisovgrad, American engineers, with the aid of fifty laborers, have made _ discoveries that have stimulated hope. They have ordered machinery to make extensive excavations possible. 1 has been proved that an increased incentive may discover more of the precious metal and there is no doubt that in the greater number ‘of prospectors and operators will be some whose success will stimulate the interest in gold mining. Jalifornia, with the spring, is likely to experience such a revival. —Oakland Tribune. SNOW SCENES APLENTY camp of the was under a_ 17-foot snow when visited recently. Imagine a_ two-foot snow over the ridge of the lodge; second story windows end of the building; in the born Lake a succession ridges of snow. The fence above the pletely covered; foot of the top of the water tank. Scout Executive Harris Richsecker and family of three visited the camp recently to learn the condition of the Boy Scout property under the extremely heavy fall of snow. What a setting and what an experience it would be to have a winter camp under snow conditions of the present—to enter a door thru a tunnel under 17 feet of snow. It
the lodge, normally 23 feet above the ground, out onto the lake. Inside the lodge, it was dark, dry and warm even without a fire. At the present time apparently no damage has bee ndone to the buildings, neither from the snow. nor wer ethere any fallen trees from the storms. Still and movie pictures were taken and a place was located where winter campers could safely be unloaded from the trains.
