NOME: A CITY THAT
HIBERNATES
"Nome, Alaska, In recent yearn has
been a city thut dwindles In winter
to u population of hut n few hundred,
and spring has brought a lessening rv
turn of residents. Thus this remote
mining camp, after a meteoric career
anil growth Into a city, gradually Is
resuming the status of a town.
Situated on the bleak north coast of
the ley storm-swept Boring sea, close
to the Arctic circle, Nome Is frozen In
and sunned In for nbout woven months
of tho year. Its chief Industry, placer
gold mining, depends upon the use of
running water, therefore thu nctlvl
ties must stop when the water con-

large part. of the population of Nome
has always returned to the States In
the fall, malting the Journey hack to
the north In June, when navigation
opens.
Tho over-night creature of an tin-
usual gold discovery, tho town grew
up on a site that prohahly could not
have been worse titled for n commu
nity of human habitation. It is open
to the full sweep of the violent storms
and tho henvy wnvos that often bent
In from the sea. It has a relatively
narrow beach and Immediately within
Is a strip of tundra, froen solid In
winter, hut a sea of mud during the
open season. In this mornss tho town
grew up. In the early days men nnd
animals lloundered through streets
that were knee-deep In mud. Lntcr
tho principal thoroughfares were
boarded over. Knch summer fool
hardy newcomers built structures on
the beach only to have them wholly
destroyed by tho blasts of September
when, almost without warning, hugo
waves swept to the edge of the tundrn
and often Into tho town Itself.

discovery was widely heralded through
Alaska and the western Btntos. Thou

tho Hummer of 1800 and the town was

covery was made thnt the sand of the
beach at tho edgo of tho town was rich
In gold, and thousands of prospectors
with crude equipment took out respect

ture of the Nome gold fields cev more
than 20,000 people to the region the
following summer, und the town grew
Into n thriving city. Plncer miners
burrowed Into tho sand like moles for
30 miles or more up nnd down tho
bench.
Nome took Its name from Capo
Nome nearby, which was named as
the result of a misunderstanding. It

their offerings were perfumed tlowors
and sweet-scented gums.
The projecting stones of "HI Sol,"
tho highest pyramid, seen here nnd
there over the pyramid, mark the up

workers until they gained the summit
of their ambition. The pyramid wns
divided Into stories" by placing a se
ries of truncated pyramids one above

Two hundred and sixty-eight must
bo climbed to reach the summit. The
pyramid Is 210 feet In he'ght, nnd has

summit Is f0 by 105 feet square.

located on tho steep projecting coast
of tho Galllpoll peninsula, It commands
a view of tho Aslntlc side tho plains

WHERE PEARL BUTTONS
COME FROM
Ono frequently must follow n long
trail to strango places to find tho origin
ot tho most common conveniences of
our homo, wardrobe, or dinner table.
For exumplo, pearl buttons nro de-
pendent upon preservation of certain
MIHlsslppI river llsh.
This oconotnlc curiosity Is explained
in a communication to the National
Geographic society by Hugh M. Smith,
an follows:
The perpetuation of the llsh sup
ply In the Mississippi and Its tribu
taries Involves n vory Important Indus
try besldos fishing. Investigations con
ducted for tho bureau of tlsherlos
years ago showed an Intlmnto relation
betweon certain kinds of fishes nnd
the mussels, which yield valuable
pearls and support a pearl-button In
dustry which gives employment to
about 20,000 persons, nnd has u prod
uct worth from $.1,000,000 to $0,000,
000 nnnunlly.
"The young mussels, of microscopic
slzo when thrown off by their parents
In myriads, need to pass the first few
weeks of their Independent existence
on the gills of fish. If the fishes are
not present at the proper time, tho
mussels cannot survive Furthermore
-and this Is n most Interesting fea
ture of the co-operation of fishes and
mussels the young of particular kinds
of mussels require the gills of par
ticular kinds of fishes as nurseries.
"The blnck bass Is host for several
sorts of nnisnels, the crnpples for sov'
ernl others, the cntflsh for others. The
skip-Jack, a kind of herring, Is the only
known host for the hrst jf nil mus
sels; nnd ns this fish Is not by nny
means nbundnnt, its innlntcnnnco Is.of
prime Importance to the welfare of the
button Industry. In 1010 more thnn
one nnd a half million skip-Jacks were
rescued.
The peculiar requirements of tho
young mussels halng been carefully
determined, the bureau of fisheries has
gone extensively Into the business ot
artificial propagation of pearly mus
sels by n method which Is fl vast Im
provement on nature. The spawning
mussels, held In ponds, arc at the criti
cal period provided with tho special
fishes needed for the nttnehment of
the young.
'The fishes obtained In the rescue
operations are turned Into the ponds
nt the time the mussels nre spnwnlng
and become thickly lnoculnted. They
are then liberated In the open wnter
and dlstrlbuto themselves nnd the mus
sels throughout n wide stnatch of river.
Thus two Important branches of the
bureau's work go hand In hand."
RUSSIA: THE HEIRESS OF
FAMINES
Never, in civilized times, have so
many old-world nations felt the pinch
of hunger at once; yet suffering from
want of food is no fiew story to many
of them. Especlully has Itussia been
the luckless heir to periods of ueur
starvation
Writing to the National Geographic
society, Ralph A. Graves tells of Rus
sian famines of the past as follows:
"Next to tho proletariat of India
and Chlnn, tlie Russian pcusnnt has
felt the pinch of poverty und hunger
more keenly und more frequently than
uny other citizen on earth
"Ono of the earliest famines In Rus
sla of which there Is any dollnltc rec
ord wns that of 1GO0, which continued
for thrco years, with a death toll of
500,000 peasants. Cats, dogs and rats
were eaten ; the strong overenme the
weak, und In the shambles of the pub
lie murkets human flesh was sold. Mill
tltudes of the dead were found with
their mouths stuffed with straw.
"Three Russlnn fnmlnes of compnra
tlvely recent date were nmong the
most severe In the history of the couu
try. They occurred In 1S91, 1000 and
1011. During tho ten years following
the llrst of these periods of dearth
the government allotted ncnrlv $125.'
000,000 f;or relief work, but tho sums
were not always Judiciously expended.
"In 1000 tho government gave 40
pounds of Hour u month to ull persons
under eighteen and over llfty-nlno
years of age. All peasants between
those ages and infunts under one year
of age received no allowance, und It
became necessary for the younger nnd
older members of the family to share
their bare pittance with those fr
whom no provision was made. The
suffering was .intense and the mortal
lty exceedingly henvy, but the avail
able statistics are not wholly relluble,
"The famine of 1011 extended over
onc-t.hlrd of tho area of the empire In
Europe nnd nffected more or less dl
rectly .'10,000,000 people, while 8,000,
000 were reduced to starvation. Weeds,
tho ,),irlc of trces' uml ,)ltter ,,rDttrt
made from acorns constituted the
chief diet for tho destitute. This was
unquestionably the most widespread
and most severe fnmlno that has be
fallen a European nation In modern
times
