COAST FARMERS
GET ORDERS FOR
HOLDOVER CROP

Two hundred sacks of Matanuska
potatoes have been ordered by Cor
dova merchants for distribution in
that city, and if the Anchorage
product proves satisfactory it is
probable, according to reliable in
formation, that the entire surplus
now on hand at Anchorage will be
consumed there. One hundred
sacks were ordered by Blum and
company and the same amount by
Finklestein & Sapiro.
Seward, Valdez and Cordova now
are paying S25 per ton for the best
Yakima spuds in Seattle. This
makes it possible for the Matanuska
spud by aid of the 81 freight rate,
to enter into competition with the
Outside potato.
Farmers of the Matanuska valley,
are warned, however, that much will
depend upon this first shipment to
Cordova. Unless the potatoes sent
there are up to standard in every
particular it is certain to create
against the product which
it will take years to remove.
Seward and Valdez merchants also
are considering ordering some of
the Matanuska potatoes, but as yet
no orders have been received

Mountain is much larger than that
at Claim point, but is more difficult
of access, and the grade of the ore
there is not so we'll known. The
peridotite covers about three square
miles and contains many stringers
and lenses of chromite ore, of both
high and low grade. The largest
deposit observed was a lenticular
body of high-grade ore not more
than rs feet long, that had a maxi
mum thickness of eight feet at the
center and conained probably not
over 1000 tons. At this place there
are many other smaller deposits and
perhaps some as large or larger, all
of which should yield at least as
much chrome ore and possibly sew
eral times as much as the body at
Claim point. On the other hand,
these ores occur at an elevation
of about 5000 feet and at a mini
mum distance of six miles from tide
water, from which much of the route
lies through precipitous and dense
ly vegetated country. In winter the
ore might be sleded out to tide
water, but in sumner it would have
to be carried by a tram.
