ALASKA NEWS NOTES

Sitka spruce which will be made into paper pulp not only for the Pacinc coast and the Orient. but for the gen. eral pulp market
 The latest estimates available show that there is a stand of approxima tely 70. ,0OO. .000 feet on the Tongass na- tIonal reserve and approximately 2s.- 000,O00.0OO feet on the Chugach na- tional forest in Alaska. Recent inves- tigations have shown this amount to be much larger than was supposed. The Alaska forests in fact contain ap- l roximately one-sixth of the total stand of timber on the national for. esis.
 The annual cut on the Tongass for est has increased gradually from zero at its creation in 1902 until 1t amount ed to approximately 43.ooo.ooo feet in 1912. This entire amount has been cut for local uses; largely for boxes to contain cannot salmon. The latest large sale is remarkable in that n in tlicate beginning of the utilization of Alaskan timber in the gcnral market.
