TUBA MANUFACTURING co,
 MAN HERE STUDYING
 OPERATING CONDITIONS

Probably the most thorough, interested visitors in Nome at the present time is w. B. Macaulay of Marysville, California, who with his wife were passengers or the last inbound trip of the Vic, toria.
 MT. Macaulay is chief engineer of the Tuba Manufacturing Com pany of San Francisco. Benicia and Marysville, California. and came here for more than one pur- pose. Primarily his visit was to oversee the completion and the turning over of the big No. 3 dredge to the Hammon Consoli- dated Gold Fields. which was done last week. Since that time he has been studying its progress and watching it's different funct- ions to see that 1t gets under way properly. This is for the pur- pose of getting by experience, de- tails that might not work out the same way theoretically" said Mir. Macaulay, "and the service that our products are giving is thing that we are interesting ourselves ir for the benefit of the buyers and for the growth and develop ment of our business"
 This is Mir. Macaulay's first trip to Alaska and the study of the conditions of placer mining in this district is especially inter esting to him as 1t brings out problems that have not had to be met in many other places where placer dredges are used. He has been over the ground in different directions from Nome to get an idea of the problems that will have to be confronted from time to time by prospective purchasers of dredging equipment and has made many conclusions of benefit for future reference.
 Sevearl mining men of this region have taken their problems to the engineer whose business it 1t to map out and prepare plans for machinery to meet any special conditions that might arise at different locations and he has ex- pressed his willingness to see any who have problems of this kind in mind with the idea of helping them with their mechanical prob lems of mining.
 The Tuba Manufacturing Com pany's plant at Marysville covers an area of three city blocks and is equipped with heavy machinery capable of handling the largest and heaviest of dredge parts and other machinery. The plant was built in Marysville twenty years ago as that city was in the heart

Apparently the great Kougarok frec.nct has passed through the final stages of depression and is slowly working it's way back to it's former place of activity. This is evidenced by the broad smiles exhibited. by many who have just arrived from that section. No doubt this is due to the increased activity of the Alaska Road Com mission and particularly to the faithful services rendered by Mir W. W.
