When I heard that another expendition was ! going, into the Indian territory, 1 sneakA into the camp, sidled along 1 side a soldier, who threw his blanket 1 over me, and became a sort of stow away; for this expedition was primari- 1 ly military.
 We went to Wichita, at the heydey of its wild days. There Wyatt Earp, who later refereed the Sharkey- Fitz- l simmons fight, was head of mounted police force. He had his hands full. The memories of my month there haven't faded with the 50 years that have gone by.

property there are others in the same section which are in such a state of development that they will be producing on a large scale in the near future, it is believed.
 Ketchikan is the very heart of the great Tongass National Forest which covers approximately 15,OOO,- 900 acres. This is heavily forested with spruce, hemlock and cedar. This is being marketed and has been for many years for home consumption. The summer of 1922 marked a new epoch in the industry, however, when for the first time a cargo of several million feet were shipped to Austral- ia. This was the beginning of an export business which will, it is indicated, increase materially in the next few years as the buyers are now negotiating for a considerable amount of lumber for export.
The Alaska fisherman., 1924-10-15
MiNINC--- --TlMBER

The Ketchikan district, in a mining way. is not as active now as it has been in some year of the past, owing to the increased cost of commodities and labor The area, however, is highly mineralized with copper, gold, silver, iron and other metals and it will be but a question of time until the properties are opened up. There are several properties in operation now and some others in the course of development, and practically all of these are being worked by resi- dents of the district and not by out side capital, whereby it is shown that the home folks have confidence in the outlook.
 The Portland Canal district, which is immediately contiguous to Ketchi- kan is drawing the attention of the whole mining world. It is there that the great Premier Mine, but 60 miles from Ketchikan as the crow flies, is located. It is a gold and silver pro- position. This property, bought three years ago for nominal sum, has already paid three and one-quarter millions in dividends and it is said that they have many times that amount in sight. In addition to that

FOX FARMS

Blue fox farming is the infant in dustry of Southeastern Alaska. It has made rapid strides during the past year until there are dozen large farms within a radius of forty miles of ketchikan. These farms are located on islands, each farmer securing from the govern ment a lease on the whole island. These islands average several square miles in size and are so surrounded by water that the foxes are fenced in naturally.
 The blue foxes increase and multi ply rapidly, pair producing from five to thirteen pups.
The Alaska fisherman., 1924-10-15
FOX FARMING

In the city of Ketchikan there are two sawmills which provide lumber not only for local consumption, one of which started the export trade, but they also furnish boxes for the salmon canneries and for the fresh fish shippers of the whole district
 There has been much talk during recent years of the development of pulp and paper manufacturing plants in Southeastern Alaska. While only one pulp mill has actually been start ed in the Tongass National Forest, several applications for permits to develop powersites which, the appll- cants say, are for pulp and paper mills, are now before the federal government. There is no question that the Tongass National Forest furnishes a field for these, with it's vast areas and ready accessibility to transportation, all being located right on the waters edge where steamers of any draught may navigate. In this connection, it is worthy of note that Revillagigedo island, on which Ketchikan is located, offers approXl- mately 100000 horsepower in it's un- developed watersites. These, no doubt, will one day, and not in the distant future, be utilized. It has even been said on competent authori- ty that it would not be difficult engineering problem to harness al least half of these powersites for use in a central location, if at any time it should be deemed advisable to build one large plant.
 With the lumber export business and the pulp and paper industry in mind, it is certain that the forests will ultimately furnish material for employment for thousands and an opportunity for capital. It is off cially estimated by the foresters that Alaska can produce two million tons of paper annually and for all time, with proper reforesting.
