 The alarm was turned in from down town and neither Mr. nor Mrs. Feaster were aware of the fire until just before the arrival of the depart ment wagons. when Mrs. Feaster being awakened by some unusual noise, discovered the flames and turn ed in a second alarm. The whole structure was mass of flames when the firemen arrived on the scene, 1t being too late to save either the house or the stock Quartered there in. The run was made and the boys worked in weather about 50 degrees below zero.

 The placer gold output of the Fair banks district was produced by about 36 summer mines employing 360 men, and about 20 winter mines, employing so men. Drift mining is on the wane at Fairbanks for in 1918 there were oyer 10 deep mines and in 1919 there were only 2S As only the deep mines can be operated in the winter, this condition has resulted in a great curailmcnt of winter operations and has made the labor problem more serious for if is impossible to have q permanent mining population where employment is assured only for the
 ummcr The larger part of the known deep deposits of rich ground at Fair banks has been worked out and ii will probably be impossible, under the present cost of operation. to revive this form of mining on d large scale. The conditions here, however, are inn proved now that the camp can be assured of fuel at reasonable cost from the Nenana coal field The best immediate prospect for the revival of placer mining at Fairbanks is that of exploiting the large reserves of aurtferous gravel that can be mined by dredges and steam scrapers. This gravel will be mined by the use Of Nenana coal after the general con ditions are improved by the establish ment of direct rail connection with the coast.
 Mining in the Iditarod district, ex cept that done by the dredges, is de- creasing year by year Much of the rich placer ground has been worked cut. and the isolation of the district, with the consequently difficulty of ob taining labor and the high freight rates, has not encouraged the ex- ploitation of the placers of lower tenor The same is true to a great extent of the Tolovana district, where most of the mining has been done by underground methods but some shal- low placers in this district can be developed when operating costs are reduced. Nothing of importance was done in the Hot Springs district.
 Except for the discovery Of another | pay streak on POOrman creek there
 was no important advance in the l Ruby district during 1918. Placers were discovered on the Hogatza river, l in the Koyukuk district, in 1919, but 1 they have not yet been sufficiently developed to determine their value. i PlaceIs are also reported to have been l discovered in the Birch creek basin, | tributary to Wild river, and also in 1 the Koyukuk district. tho these re ports have not been verified. These i placers are in inaccessible regions and would have to be very rich to
 justify their development under pie sent conditions. These reports, how
 eyer, indicate that not all tha Alaska
 Drospectors have become discouraged, The gold production from the Mar shall district has been maintained

For reasons already discussed there was less placer mining in 1910 than 1918. and the outlook for a r-- yiyal of the industry as a whole under present economic conditions is not hopefuI. In the following table com parison is made between the placer mining industry in 1919 and in 1918 Alaska Placer Mining in 1918 and 1919

 A most unfortunate effect of the decline in gold, especially in placer mining. is the Encouragement of the prospector Tho many prospectors devote their attention to the search for copper and other minerals, they as a class are held to their vocation by the hope of finding rich placers which they can develop by individual effort. The loss of 900 men to the placer-mining industry, as shown by the above table, means the loss of an equal number of at least potential nrospectors. Many prOspectors have been drawn away from Alaska by the high wages and good business oppor- tunities which war conditions have created in the states. As a conse- quence broadly half, possible three quarters of the pre-war Alaska pros, pectors have sought other fields.
 Cold dredging continues to hold an important place in Alaska placer min ing. In 1919 there were 28 dredges in operation for the whole or part of the season and they produced gold 1 to the value of about S11O0.000 com | pared with an output of $1425 000 worth of gold by 28 dredges in 1918 Two of these dredges were operated in 1919 in the Fairbanks district two in the Iditarod district one in the | Birch creek district of the Yukon i basin, and the rest on Seward benin sula. One of the Fairbanks dredgee and the Kuskokwim dredge were first operated In 1919 and had successful seasons, showing that dredging car be profitable even under present ad verse conditions. This fact and the successful gold dredging in Seward peninsula during the last fifteen years proves that this type of mining has an important future in Alaska. IT nearly every placer-mining distric of Alaska there are large areas under lain by suriferOus grayels which justi
