Few know or recall that in the earlier days an approximate $1,- 000,000 in gold dust was taken from the Kodiak Island beaches.
 Ed. Brooker, who for twenty-four years never cast an eye on the "bonny ocean, but remained stead fly in the Interior mining fields, pros pecting or, conducting come kind of business or other, sufficiently long enough to get another grub stake together, says though gold was laying in millions on the beaches of Nome, lon after gold mining had begun in the tundra district, it took a sour- dough prospectOr to come along and discover the real pay on the beach line.

Department Makes
Estimate of Lamb
Crop for the Year

The government bureau having in
charge crop and livestock estimates
has completed Its observations on
lamb shipments for the current sea
o and says that the total available
output OF sheep and lambs from the
range states from the 1925 crop IL
estimated to be about 800. 900 less
from the 1924 crop. and about
the same ~ two years ago.
II is estimated that 1911. 900 sheep
and lambs are available for move
ment to feed lots and markets from
the range states during the last our
months OF this year. which Is about
400. 900 or about 6 per cent less than
the number moved during the cor
responding period last year. and
about 20 per cont more than for two
years ago. The probable number that
will move direct to markets this fall
(Sept.-Doc.) In about +.221.00O.
which 10 $4,000. or about 3 per
cent less than moved In the fall OF
1924. and about 8 percent less than
for the corresponding period OF 1923.
From this years supply OF sheep
and lambs for markets. II appears
that about 2.1%6.000 will move TO
markets after January l. 1925. from
which II seems that q similar pro-
portion OF the total available supply
will be marketed after January /.
than took place IN the case Of the
1913 and 1924 crops.
EARLY LAMB MOVEMENT
Records indicate that about 1884,
900 early lambs and other sheep were
marketed from these states during
the period of early lamb movement
this year. There include m%arkctings
from California and Arizona from
March to August Inclusive. and from
May 10 August from other western
states. The corresponding movement
with last year WAS 1901. 900. com
pared with 2.66S,000 In 1929. Mar
ketings during this period consist
principally Of early iambs. but In
c1ude some sheep.
