Pr0spect0rs Farmers Trappers Tourists
 The Nenana district offers oppor- tunities for prospecting, farming, and trapping that are unequaled in any other section of Alaska.
 Gold placers of known value, close to Nenana, are producing annually sub- stantial amounts, and there are scores of streams within the district on which little or no prospecting has been done. These streams, until short time ago almost inaccessible, are now easily r reached by means of the new Govern ,, ment Railroad, and undoubtedly soon il, Ill will be the scene of much mining ac- HI tivity. HI
 Farming in the Nenana district has HI the advantage of growing season fully ten days longer than that of any other section of Interior Alaska. There is HI much desirable land in the district open l|I to homesteaders, and marketing possi- III bilities are being expanded steadily. LII HI Fur-bearing animals of the Nenana LII and adjacent districts are noted for the fine quality of their fur, and trappers HI HI annually bring large numbers of pelts HI to Nenana and receive for them higher HI prices than are obtained for the average HI furs of other districts.
 Game of all kinds abounds in the Nenana district, there are scores of trout streams easy of access, and the scenic wonders of the district are un- surpassed The district is the natural e gateway to Mt. Mckinley National Park, and close to Nenana may be viewed the largest coal ledges in the world.
