The sand and gravei were heated by
being dumped on platforms holding
steam pipes and hot water was used
in mixing. The concrete was poured
at times when the thermometer reg

! The old route from Seattle to
Fairbanks for shipments Of hay,
grain and potatoes was by steamer TO
! st. Michael, thence by river boats up
the Yukon and Tanana rivers, a dis
tance of $500 miles and at a cost of
$50 a ton, or through Skagway and
down the Yukon and Tanana at a cost
of $66. Over the new railroad these
articles can be shipped, according to
government figures, at a saving OF
$40 a ton, 1000 miles in transporta-
ton, and three weeks in time.
! AS the new line drew nearer COM
pletion the government began hand
ling traffic TO be transported over
the intervening stretch of unfinished
1oad by various means. The reduc-
ton in transportation cost has al
ready been reflected in prices at Fair.
banks. Beef has dropped 25c pound;
cats dropped from p14O to $40 ton
and wood costing $3.50 cord was
replaced by Ignite coal delivered at
Fairbanks for Sc ton. Because of
this enormous saving, the buying
power of Alaskans is being augment

The railroad will add agriculture to
the mining and fishing resources that
have made Alaska famous. The in
terror is already being titled and to-
day Fairbanks is grinding flour from
wheat grown there. The possibility
of oil wells Coming in" is not re-
mote.
The government maintains an eX-
pertinent station in this region; tur-
nips, potatoes and root vegetables
thrive. In the Chilkat valley, produc-
ers have formed a company to can
their surplus berries and vegetables.
Dairying has begun.
A new era in Alaskas prosperity
is predicted with the completion OF
this new line of communication; the
lard of the midnight sun will emerge
from its dissolution and it's romance
and adventure make way for the
more prosaic pursuits of commerce.
Mt. Mckinley, 10000 feet high, loft
lest peak Of the North American con-
tinent, is but one of the many scenic
beauties made accessible by the new
read. Alaskans predict that the fif-
teen miles separating it from the
railway will sooa be traverscd by Il
modern paved highway.

A typical construction problem was
the spanning of the Susitna river,
which like many ot:lers OF the pro-

5O4 feet in length and together with
it's two approaches is 1922 feet long,
the largest of it's kind on the rail-
road.
Ice reaches enormous heights in the

red rocks of it's canyons; so that sus-
tanning piers in midstream would be

little better under the tremendous
pressure of the ice pack. A long span
was decided upon and its building IS
a story in itself.
Supplies had to be freighted by
sleds on the ice until the river broke

Special measures were necessary in
