 From Tee Harbor on to Eagle River the distance is nine miles. and a survey Of that route will be made during Che coming summer with Che view or extending Che road to Che latter point during Che season of 1923. The money available from the forestry branch Of Che Depart ment of Agriculture on January lst win be $250. .0O0 and by July lst an- other S72O.0O0 will be available, both sums being for road building purposes.

 As Che Eagle River locality is ono Of the most extensive agricultural districts Of Southeastern Alaska. Che completion of a substantial road to that place from Juneau will not only be a great boon Co the settlers there. but it will be one Of Che most in- terosung highways in Che North from a scenic standpoint

CANADIAN FUR
 INDUSTRY LARGE
Small Portion of Fur Taken in Dominion From Fur Farms;
 Mostly Caught Wild

The fact that furs continue one Of Che staple and sorviccable article, Of attire In cold countries and ever In demand n Che world Of fashion and luxury lends great encourage mcnt iothe rappers and to the fur farmers Of Canada.
 Yukon. being far north. produces mr Of a quality second to none, and Che Yukon product always commands @ high price.
 The Dominion government win make uo mistake in encouraging Che fur industry in every way possible. When Canadians clotho themselves m uu they arc consuming as a rule. goods Of Canadian production. and thIa keeping Che money at home. one basic economic practice which it Is necessary to follow up in order to realize tho soundcst Of national financial conditions
 More than three and a half million pcIa. worth S2l3SIOOO were pro- iuccd iu Canada ln 1920. according to am article in recent number of Commerce Weekly issued by Che National Bank of Commerce iu New York Nuskrat and beaver pelts valued at SG.0O000O and S5.3OO,OOO respectively comprised about half Che toal with martcn. mink. silver fox and fisher following in the order named The article continues:
 CA very small proportion Of these pclu was produced by Che fur farm ug industry which confines itself almost entirely to silver fox. The lox has proved most suited to domes- icauou and has been successfully raised for Che past fO years. In 1919 horc wcrc l24 fox farms, three mink urms and two racoon farms in operation. with a total of 2.5l3 pelts. worth s50S.5f9. On tho farms at tho end of Che year there were s. BIO foxes. mostly Of Che silver vari- ety. valued at approximately $5.- 0Oo.O00.
 "Tho largest part or Che Canadian mr production is exported. princi- nouy to Che United States. In the fiscal year 1921, imports from Cam ada touucd 2.6SLOOO pelts worth s9.098.O00."
 Yukon contributes largely Co Che Canadian output both from Che ratch of Che trapper and from local .ox farms A careful study Of Che industry win likely see the Yukon Yukon in time as much heavier producer Of furs than she is today and thereby gain for her @ much larger share of credit in the economic auairs Of Che Dominion Dawson Nows
