NEW YORK. September 13.-Aside
from developments in the oil indus

that 1t represented also the throwing

5. R. Capp, who was,in charge of the work of the U. s. Geo. logical Survey in Alaska dur ing the absence on sick leave of Dr. Alfred Hulse Brooks, was recently in the Cache Creek section Investigating a large quartz dyke, which is eA- posed on Dollar and Thunder creeks. The investigation wa- made in response to a request Of the miners of the district to Dr Brooks last winter. It is the belief of the miners of that sec ton that this big dyke is the source of most of the gold found in the creeks of the dls- trict, hence the determination: to get an expert opinion on the subject. Numerous samples from the dyke have been sens to Washington for assay ana analysis. On completing his ll- vcstigation, MT. Capps will is- sue a report on his findings.

In the matter ot production, he said the comp- any had taken out less than half the amount of gold recov- cred in 1922. He also stated that the main development had been the driving of an 850-foot tunnel to cut the Lucky Shot vein at a point some 500 feet below it's outcrop. The vein was reached early in August, but no ore was found, nor has any been opened up since, although nearly 200 feet of tunnel has since been driven on the vein.

 When he came to Alaska iii 1878 he was puny and sickly and his physicians and friends predicted that he would not survive the hardships. he must endure for more than a year or two at the best. Yet, forty five years later, he is hale and hearty and is contemplating s visit soon to all of the Presby- terian missions in western Al aska, penetrating the interior as far as Fairbanks. Next year he intends to make a trip to Pc. Barrow, the most northerIy point of the Territory, to estab- fish new missions.

The potato crop raised at Dawson this year was much larger than expected early Tn the season, the rains during the early fall having moistened the ground thoroughly, enabling, the tubers to make rapid grow tn during the latter part Of the season. Their quality is sala by the Dawson News to be e~- ceptionally good. Carrots par snips, turnips, beets and ruta- bagas all produced bountiful crops and of a quality rarely excelled in any country. The cabbage and celery crops were the best seen in the Yukon m years, some stalks of celery grown in the Dawson gardens being fully thirty-siX inches in length.

ALASKA LUMBER EXPORTS SHOW BIG GAIN FOR YEAR

ALASKA LUMBER EXPORTS SHOW BIG GAIN FOR YEAR Southeastern Alaska lumber
 mills shipped approximately 6,380,000 board feet of lumber to the general market outside
 of the Territory during the
 present year, exceeding the ex-
 ports of last year by virtually 130 per cent, according to fig
 ures recently given out by B. F.
 Heintzelman, Assistant Hist
 rict Forester, and published Tn the Juneau Empire. r Of the aggregate shipments, those made by the Juneau
 Lumber Mills amounted to more than twice as much as all the other mills combined, anu in measurement containeu about 4,290,000,000 feet board
 measure.
 Commenting on the years business MT. Heintzelman is re- ported by the Empire as toi- lows:
 shipments of lumber from Southeastern Alaska mills into the general markets are In
 creasing materially from year
 to year. Lumber export frol the Territory started during the war but at that time ship ments were limited to high
 grade airplane stock. At pres ent the material being sent out contains a nigh percentage
 of merchantable grade in ad-
 dition to clears.
 "The lumber market in Alas ka has been so very good this year that the mill output has largely been consumed local- | ly and very little effort was made to secure outside lumber orders. The Juneau Lumber
 Mills is the only concern which
 has made direct shipments to a foreign country. It has just finished the loading of 1,sAO, 900 feet on the second barkerl- tine to be sent out this year
 :" The total exports from the Territory in 1923 will be ap- proximately 6,380,000 board feet, all Alaska spruce. The distribution is as follows. Australia-3,49O,00O feet merchantable and merchant able box.
 United Kingdom 2,020,0OU clears.
 Canada 3O,000 feet clears. United States 10000 feet largely clears.
 |" The 1928 shipments repre- sent a gain of almost 130 per cent over those of 1922"
 All of the shipments made to Australian ports included Ill the above list originated ln the local mill. Of the 2,020,00O feet of clears shipped to the
 United Kingdom, some 800,000 came from the local plant ana
 a considerable proportion of the clears sent to the States
 markets.
