! tude of Salt Lake City"
 Navigation on the Yukon has so
 important a bearing on transporta- ton in interior Alaska that it has
 given rise to a general recognition , Of two seasons-the "closed sea son." when the yukon is either filled with floating ice or frozen over, and the "open season. ' The break-up ot the ice usually oc- CUTS about the middle of May, after which the river is open to trans pOrtation for five or six months, or little longer. The breakup is not only an event of great economic significance to the inhabitants in tn
 interior of Alaska, but it presents features Of great dramatic interest as well. One who has not witnessed it, according to the authors of the survey report, can hardly imagine The impressiveness of the spectacle. From bank to bank the surface of the river is 8 solid mass of huge moving ice cakes, which are con stantly grinding and >disintegrating with an awe-inspiring exhibition Of resistless force.
 The freeze-up is less spectacular With the increasing cold of the au- tumn slush ice forms in the river, and as the cold becomes more in tense the ice increases in volume until finally it is sufficient to bridge the entire stream. This means the termination of navigation on the Yukon until the following May.
 The Geologicol surveys measure ments of stream s flow near Eagle were made during the winter at a point about miles above the town, where the river is 1,6OO feet wide, by cutting holes through the ice at intervals of 50 feet and making Sounulngs. In this way the expos ed section of the river was deter mined, and the velocity of the stream at each hole was determin- ed by a Price current meter. Dur ing the period of break-up dis charge measurements were made by means of ice floats. In the open season the flow was determined by the same method as on any large river.
 The maximum discharge measured in 1911 was on May P, when the volume was 253,OOO secOnd-feet. The width of the water surface at the measuring section was 1,645 feet, and the greatest depth Of the river was 2S.7 feet. The average surface velocity was 5.S miles all hour.

REPORT ON THE FLOW
 OF THE YUKON RIVER

The Yukon river in Alaska is one OF the great rivers of the North American continent. A brief report on the discharge Of Yukon river at LagIe, Alaska, by E. A. Porter and R. ". Davenport, has just been is sued by the United States Geologi- cal survey as Water-Supply Paper 345-F. Probably few people have an adequate conception of the size of this river and character istics of it's flow. A. II. Brooks, or the Geological survey, gives the Yukon fifth place among the large rivers in North America and es- inmates it's drainage area at about 330,0OO square miles. It's length, n ciuding the Lewes and TeSliu rivers, is given in tho report at 3,2Q0 miles This may be compared with 5000 miles for the Mississippi and Mis- sOuri, 2,S6S miles for the Macken- zie, 2.O0O for the Colorado con- biued with Green river, and 1900 for the Ohio combined with the Ale gheny.
 The discharge ot the Yukon varies from a maximum of 254,OOO to ~a minimum ot 10000 cubic feet q second. or an estimated average flow of 73,2OO cubic feet. This is a relatively small discharge, the average flow of the Mississippi be- ing 695,OOO. that of the Ohio 3OO.- 900, and that of the Colorado 23,30 secOnd-feet. The Nile, with a drainage area of 1,262,OOO square miles, has an average flow of 116,- 900 cubic feet a second. The flow Of the Yukon is therefore relatively small as related to its drainage area, and this apparent anomaly is ac- counted for by the fact that the in terior of Alaska has the small rain fall characteristic of that portion Of the United States which lies be tween the Sierra Nevada and the Rocky mountains, north of the lati-
