PERMITS ARE ISSUED FOR
 USE IF NATIVE TIMBER

An inquiry from the general land office regarding the use of native tim Der in the manufacture of necessary containers for products of Alaska that are to be shipped to the States was recently made to the headquar- ters at Washington. D. C. A reply has been received from Commissioner Clay Tallman in which it is stated that it is permissible to manufacture and use any container necessary for shipping the products of an Alaska industry.
 The point in question was brought up by a fish-salting concern on the coast manufacturing it's own barrels to be used in shipping out the pro- duction of their plant. in order to save the excessive cost of having them made Outside and shipped to Alaska. The department held that to prohibit the use of native timber in the man ufacture of barrels would be a restric- ton on one of the important indus tries of the North. The use of tim. Der for making articles to be shipped Outside to be disposed of there will not be countenanced.

RAILROAD MEN
 UNCOVER GOAL
 BED AT NENANA

ANCHORAGE, August 26-Grading contractors in prosecuting their Work along the route of the government railroad in the Nenana coal fields un- the property is now in course of de velopmcnt by w. F. Lynn, who has obtained free-use permit to mine it, occording to the official report of Andrew Christensen. head of the Land and Industrial Department of the Al askan Engineering Commission, who recently returned to his headquarters in Anchorage from q trip of inspec- tion 10 the Nenana and Fairbanks districts
 1.-TWO properties are in process ot development along the line Of the government railroad in the northern part of the Nenana field" says the report of Mir. Christensen.
 "W. F. Lynn, who has q free'uSe permit on, the property containing the fvefoot bed that was uncovered by railroad graders twenty-eight miles south of Nenana, is driving on the bed. Some of the coal from this property was used in a pile driver of the Alaskan Engineering Commis- sion. and proved satisfactory. If the ;, ,F nt l. ity, it is the intention of the commits sion to enter into a contract with when the railroad reaches his prop crty.
 "The other property under develop ment in the northern part of the Ne mana field Is held under a permit by Robert F.. Burns and several associates and is fifty miles south of Nenana. They have uncovered five coal beds, which appear to be an extension Of the large beds exposed on Lignitc creek. These five beds vary from five to quality of the coal appears to be as good, if not better, than the coal eN- posed on I.ignite creeks. MT. Burns and his associates are driving a tun- nel on the largest bed and are prepar, ing to furnish coal to the railroad when 1t reaches their property.
 Arrangements will be made toI have samples from these mines ship ped to the Bureau of Mines Expert ment station, in Fairbanks. and care full analyses vii be made from time to time. It is also planned to install an experimental drier for the purpose of drying the coal so as to improve it's efficiency The principal difficulty with the coal in its raw state is that it slacks rapidly, due to the amount Of moisture it contains. Great interest attaches to experiments with this coal Coal is badly needed by the railroad and for domestic use in the interior of Alaska. Wood sells for exceedinly high prices. and is becom- ing rapidly exhausted"
