SERIES OF POPULAR
ARTICLES WRITTEN
FOR PROSPECTORS
PROSPECTORS ASKED TO SUB
MIT TO COLLEGE VIEWS
ON PROBLEMS
A series of popular articles on
prospecting has been written by
Ernest N. Patty, Dean of the Alas
ka College and head of the School
of Mines and following the intro
duction below, will be published
daily in the Gateway until then
completion :
Alaska probably offers a better
field for prospectors than does
any similar area on the continent.
Mining will always be one of the
basic industries of Alaska and it
is not optimistic to predict that
the present annual mineral pro
duction does not begin to approach
the peak of the annual production
which Alaska will eventually
yield. The most disturbing factor,
however, is the limited number
of prospectors thinly sprinkled

over such a vast area.
There are many plans to stim
ulate prospecting and to make the
work of the individual prospector
more effective. The development
of airplane transportation is prov
ing an effective tool. The last Ter
ritorial Legislature offered en
couragement by creating a fund
to pay certain transportation ex
penses of prospectors. The Alaska
College during the past six ;
has trained over 100 prospectc
in its Mining Short Course. Many
prospectors from distant points in
the Territory have repeatedly ex
pressed a desire for this Short
Course training but the funds of
the College have not permitted
bringing the Short Course work to
them and the barrier of travel,
expenses and time have prevented
them from coming to the College.
It is true that an occasional pros
pector from such distant points
as Ketchikan and Nome has come
to the College for the Mining
Short Course but they represent
but a small minority of the pros
pectors in the distant districts.
To serve in a small measure
these distant prospectors, the
staff of the School of Mines at
the Alaska College, has prepared
a short series of articles designed
to meet a few of (the field prob
lems of the prospector. To weld
this series into a unit and make
them more real, “we have at
tempted to weave these articles
around the daily life of two typi
cal prospectors, Larry O'Sullivan
and Jack McKay, who are develop- !
ing a quartz prospect on a dis
tant Alaskan Mountain. These ar
ticles will be published under the
title: ‘Tales From the Hills’ and
will be released to all Alaskan
newspapers for bi-weekly publi
cation.”
Frankly, this is an experiment.
These articles are framed for the
prospectors and “we hope that
they will enjoy them for if they
prove successful we will prepare
a new series at some later date.
We appreciate that the attempt to
