DEVELOPMENT OF COAL MINE
 PROGRESSING

Falcon Joslin, president of the Der ing River Coal Company, has returned to Cordova from a trip of inspection to the mine, and when interrogated by a Daily Times representative as to the work being done there, he said:
 Development at the coal mine is progressing under Superintendent Jones, and the prospects are en- couraging. MT. George Watkin Ev- ans, consulting engineer for the com pany, is now on the ground to study and advise on the development. We have about thirty men employed and expect to increase the force to forty men, and continue work through the winter.
 "We are developing three principal veins of coal and have at present HOO feet of rock tunnel and about 700 feet of gangways, in the aggregate, on the different coal veins. There is between 300 and 400 feet of tunnel on vein Mo- 16 showing clean coal from eight to fifteen feet thick. On vein No. Ii there is about 12O feet of tunnel. This vein varies from eight feet to three feet in thickness. On vein No. 13 there is only about fifty feet driven. The coal varies greatly in thickness. Just now there is about nine feet of coal in the face of the tunnel. Tn addition to this under ground work we have done lot of surface work to prove the extent of the veins.
 "The quality of the coal is excel lent, and all the veins seem about the same. The coal is very clean, hay ing no clay or bone in it, and con- sequently is very low in ash. We have 400 or 500 tons of good, clean coal on the dumps, but have been able to nauI very utLI6 LO Ino lduuIhS for lack of a good road. A few sacks distributed at Katalla have been tried and pronounced excellent by the peo- pie there. The formation has been much disturbed and squeezed, result ing in the veins showing great thick ening and thinning in short distances. It is probable also that much fault ing will be found, but we hope none so bad we cannot overcome them. This condition, however, makes it necessary to carry out much more ex- tensive underground work to definite

 q have great confidence that we are going to make a good commercial mine, which will be an important factor in the future development of Alaska. Also that we shall be able to produce an excellent naval coal"

making away with his coveralls,

as the fellow went thru the pockets.
AS he approached a tent behind
which he had taken shelter, the
burglar fired a shot either at Cor
don or in the air.
Mrs. Gordon, who had remained in
the tent, screamed, and each thought
the other was hurt. While Mr.. Cor

terloper escaped with about $40 in
cash.

Grading Work
Being Completed
Continued from page one


The Shelley-Taylor road is all done
excepting section OF $500 feet.
The purchase of the gravel pit
from Mr.. Harker, for completing
the road east of Shelley, was not
made. Mr.. Harker's price of $500
was considered too high for an acre
OF gravel and Mr.. .......
living half a mile east of Leonard
Cox made the county a present of
gravel for that work and it was ac-
cepted.
j. H. Hansen of Goshen has COM
pleted about two miles of grade ex-
tending toward Basalt and another
contractor, whose name we did not
get, is working on the other section
of three and half miles. Mr.. Snow
is working on the Shelley oodville
road and has about two miles of it
graded. Mccullough and Hurst have
three and half miles graded on the
Shelley-Goshen road. There is a
connecting link between this line and
line two miles south of that which
will probably not be graded until
after the fall hauling is done. Com
missioner Christensen thinks that if
they are torn UP now it will inter-
fere with the fall hauling.
The county finds itself in need of
warehouses at several places for stor-
ing materials used in construction
work and they have decided to build
one at Blackfoot just east of the
stock yards. 1t is to be 60 by 100
feet.

Practical Suggestion
For the Dry Farmers

H. M. Wagner was in from the
Indian mission, Saturday and said he
had been making a trial Of bromis
inermus, commonly called bronze
grass, on a tract of dry land at The
Mission, and it had survived several
years and always looked thrifty.
This year he watered 1t and 1t had
not done 30 we'll as usual.
Mr.. Wagner says they have had it
growing for a number of years on
some of the hills near Gooding,
where there was no irrigation, and
he thinks the dry farmers might find
1t profitable az forage plant on the
dry plains west Of Snake river.
