FRUIT CANNING
SEASON IS now
IN FULL SWING
Juneau Women Filling Gel
lars with Cans of Native
Fruits and Vegetables

High prices of fruit, sugar, vege-
tables and condiments have not af-
fected the home canning of the
thrifty housewives in juneau, ac-
cording to local grocers.
Just now they are bending their
endeavors to wild blueberries, cur
rants, strawberries and other fruits
locally grown. No Strawberries have
been received from Haines this year
because of the recent Inauguration
Of the canning industry there.
Refusing to be dependent upon
imported canned goods, women have
been canning their own peas, beans
and other vegetables, nearly all sup
piled by local gardens. Juneau
gardeners have had exceptionally
good yields this year and each day
fresh wonders of their growing are
displayed by the markets.
Canning peaches, which will arrive
in Juneau next week, will be sky
high in price. This will be due, it
is said to the shortage of peaches
in the Yakima market which has
affected the price of the California
fruit as well. However, orders are
already being taken for the fruit,
and Gamers are awaiting it's arrival.
From all Indications, Juneau's Gel
lars and attics will be well stored
with home canned sweets, pickles
and vegetables next. winter.

OIL DISTRICTS
NOT DECREASED
Permits Applied for Covering
100000 Acres; As Many
More Are Located

That there has been no decrease
in the influx of prospectors into
those districts of Alaska wherein
indications of oil have been found
is shown by the number of filings
of applications for permits to lease
made in the local u S. Land Office
during the past month. On the con-
trary the records of that office indi-
cate that there was greater activity
in the month of July than any pre-
cedng month since February, when
the new oil leasing laws went into
effect.
From July 1, up to today, total
of SO applications for leasing permits
were filed at the Juneau U. S. Land
Office. These cover locations made
in four separate oil fields, one of
which, around Cape Spencer, had
not been entered prior to July l.
These locations contain a total of
1850 acres. The Yakataga field
leads all others last month in the
number of applications filed, ii per-

Other Locations Made

OhhCi GOCdllOHS NGuC
THE applications for leasing per-
mits that have been made do not by
any means show the extent of the
oil explorations, says the statement
1T is conservatively estimated that
as many locations have been made
for which no permits have been
sought as for WHICH applications for
permits have been filed. 1t is known
hat four locations in the Yakataga
field, 80 in the Cold Bay region, and
five west of Wasilla, north out OF
Anchorage, in the Susitna river val
ley district, have been made and for
which no permits have yet been
asked. The Susitna Valley is a
field in which, little prospecting has
been done and the five claims men
toned are the only ones so far as
is known here that have been To-
Gated.
Preference Rights Claims
"In the Katalla field there is a
total of 1879 oil claims located under
he old regulations which are not
included in the list given out today.
One of these claims, owned by Fal-
con Joslin and associates, has been
patented. The original claimants OF
the others, under the new regula-
ions may claim preference rights
md have until February %, 1921
n which to prove up and apply foi

subject to leasing permits by new
ocators until the preference right
