the south slope OF gorge above het
chikan showed 235 rings. The diane
ter of this stump outside the bark was
SO inches. A 4O-inch Sitka spruce
stump in the same locality had 23U
rings This tree had been l25 feet
high. Near Wrangell three Sltka
spruce logs averaged 30 inches In d.
ameter at the butt inside the bark.
with 262 annual rings. Two examples
of extreme age in Sitka spruce were
noted in Portage bay between Peters
burg and Juneau. A section of log
81 inches in diameter taken Is feet
above the ground had 900 rings; an
other log 81 inches in diameter feet
above the ground had SIS rings. Both
were entirely sound.
Logging in southeastern Alaska
employs the crudest of methods. 1t
is now carried on entirely by hand,
though logging machinery was used
in few earlier operations. Only the
best spruce trees at the edge OF tide
water are cut. The logs are frequent
ly made the entire length of the tree,
and are lacked up and rolled into the
water, where they are tied into RATS
and towed to the sawmill by tugs.
The annual lumber cut in the coast
forests of Alaska is about 100000
board feet. This consists almost en-
tirely of spruce, since hemlock is but
little used. There are about rs saw
mills on the coast, at Cordova, Doug
las, Juneau, Katalla, Ketchikan, Pc
tersburg, Seward, Sitka, Valdez, Wran-
CELL, and other points, most of them
rather crude in character and OF small
capacity. A large proportion of the
output, probably more than one-third,
is used for salmon cases, and much OF
the best lumber goes into them.
The southern and southeastern
coast of Alaska has much greater
timber supply than there is any rea-
son to think will be needed locally
for long time to come. The perma-
nent industries Of the region are fish
ing and mining. The mountainous
character of the country will forever
prevent agricultural operations of any
magnitude The total stumpage Is
large, much of it overmature, and the
proportion of hemlock too great. The
timber should be cut and utilized al

are as sharp as those be-
tween the topographic
and climatic, and. of
course, depend upon them.
The coast forests of south
ern Alaska are the north
ernmost extension of the
coast type of Washington
and British Columbia. The
interior forests are an ex-
tension of the interior Ca
madam forests. The for
ests Of the Susitna and
Copper river basins are
somewhat intermediate in
character, since these riv-
ers rise in the interior
and break through the

side her and match your speed against
hers, you would find she had you beat

much to the bindery folder, but steady
nerves, the habit of concentration,
and natural nimbleness mean more.

jiffy the biscuits were whisked away
and replaced with the stan of life. I
noticed a wistful sort of expression on
the mans face as the biscuits disap-
peared. but he made no remark. I

thought. and then the woman turned

Is far more interesting and of greater
import than any movement towards
land heretofore recorded in this coun.
try. The primal influence of this
great movement is Charles H. Siee
and the organization which he has
promulgated.
This man Is the pioneer Of Florida
In the matter Of placing northern men
than one year ago Charles H. Sieg or
gaDized his first colony. which was 10
Gated In st. Johns Park. Florida.
Every acre Of the 10000 comprising
this colony was sold within 30 days.
The demand was SO great that Mr..
Sieg secured another tract of land.
amounting to some $4,000 acres. at
Jacksonville Heights. and this in turn
vas sold out With the rapidity of the
6rst colony.
Today at these two great colonies.
st. Johns Park and Jacksonville
Heights. are to be seen many beauti-
full cottages: hundreds of farms are
being worked; settlers are thoroughly
satisfied; land values have arisen
1905. and many of those settlers who
bought land. and have not even i'm
proved II as yet. are actually refusing
in profits more than the amount of
money they paid for their homes
Then Mr.. Sieg began his search for
his greatest and his best Florida farm
community. After careful scrutiny
of all Florida lands. he decided that
Marion County. north of the County
Seat. Ocala. held the greatest promise
for his ideals. and he purchased a
large tract of land here
Upon one side of this property lies
the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad: on
the other. the Seaboard Air Line: and
through the heart of It travels the
Ocala & Northern Railroad. Upon
the eastern border of the colony.
which Mr. Sieg has called Burbank
Ocala. the beautiful Ocklawaha river
runs. and over the breast of its waters
travel passenger and freight steam
ers from Palatka to Silver Springs.
