BETTER CONTAINERS NEEDED
FOR PERISHABLE SHIPMENTS

Perishable products worth mil.
Mons OF dollars are DESTROYED annu-
any on account of breakage in tran
SIT OF the containers in which thew
are packed. More than one railroad
has appealed to the U. S. Bureau Of
Markets to help remedy this situa-
ton, high official of southern
railroad stating recently that in his
opinion shippers should be comnci-
led to use containers to adequate
strength, and that proper car-loadinp
methods should be exercised.
1t is vastly to the interests of the
shipper to use containers of a
strength that will carry perishable
products safely to market, and the
bureau of Markets has made many
investigations and experiments to
determine just what strength con-
tanners should be to accomplish that
result. These Investigations are still
In progress, but the information al
ready collected is sufficiently COM
plete to enable the bureau to advise
shippers with regard to the best con-
tanners to use in shipping specified
fruits and vegetables.

NEW WOODRUFF INDUSTRY
NOW DEVELOPING IN ALASKA

Alaska is now manufacturing wood
pulp. Samples of the first run"
from new mill near Juneau, in the
Tongass National Forest, have inst
been received by U. S. Forest Off
Gals, who state that this marks an
other milestone of progress in pulp
production for the newsprint indus
try.
The mill which produced this wood
pulp is the first of its kind in the
Territory and is operated by hydro
electric power. It has capacity of
90 tons of pulp day with power re-
sources available for increasing the
output to $50 tons. While not equip
ped at present to turn out paper, it
is the intention of the operating
company to enlarge the plant so as
to make a finished product. The
sample received is high-grade spruce
pulp, but hemlock will also be ground
in quantity for newsprint purposes.
The Forest Service has tried for
many years to establish pulp mill
in Alaska, but the pioneering diff
culties attending such an enterprise
coupled with the prevailing low pri-
ces for pulp and paper, have pre-
vented development Of the industry.
1t was not until the summer Of 1926
that the first mill was built. Tho
first run Of pulp was made on Janu.
