Seward Dock Loaded
 Down with Barrels;
 For Westward Salteries
OPPORTUNITY FOR cooPERAGE PLANTS PRESELF TO EN-
 TERPRISiNG INDIVIDUAL

The fishing business in the Cook Inlet district has never been better than this year, according to Seward arrivals yesterday. The German plant at Anchorage has packed 14,000 cases of salmon, a considerab ble more than they had anticipated. From the low CT inlet the salmon run was good but the herring industry has literally swamped the salteries. Captain Tom Perry of the mail boat Salmo, which plies between Anchorage and Seldovia, during the summer months, is au thority for the statement that there is good opening for barrel factory in this region. This year it is esti- mated there will be more than 30,000 barrels and cooperage stock shipped into the Inlet district A walk down to the Seward dock this evening will convince one there may be good deal of truth in Capt. Perry's state ment for the local dock is crowded with barrels from one end to the oth- CT. All will be loaded aboard the steamer Redondo, which is scheduled to depart for the westward tomorrow.

Swedish Prisoners Convert Farm Into Model Penal Home

HALMCTED, Aug. r. R-An abandoned farm has become Swe- den's model penal colony. About five years ago the government con- ceived the idea of sending prisoners there to complete their terms at out door work in virtual freedom. Trans fer to the farm was made the re- ward for good behavior and now is the gial of all Swedish prisoners.
 The land has been put under cul- tivation by the prisoners so success fully that it serves as an object les son to peasants of the district.
 Notwithstanding the complete free dom of movement permitted for farm work, none of the prisoners has at tempted to escape.

Airplanes Will Use Steam
 As Power, Briton Predicts

CARDIFF, Aug. IT. (P)-The use of steam engines in anrplanes was pre- dicted by Dr. John s. Haldane at the annual meeting of the Institute of Mining Engineers.
 In the course of a paper on coal and steam, Dr. Haldane said in the very near future he believed steam engines would take the place of in- ternal combusti ton engines to very great extent, and that future devel- opment of the steam engine would be along the lines of increased steam pressure with smaller and lighter engines. The complete engine and boiler would be much smalled and lighter than an equivalent internal combustion engine, and would in all probability be more suitable and even superior for use in airplanes and motor cars.
 Another scientist, Sir John Cad man, said he looked upon oil as a phase which was passing. What oil was doing today coal would do again tomorrow, aItho oil would go into certain channels of use which coal would never again be able to regain

dredge, when completed. Referring back to the beginning of activities, preparatory to moving the machin- cry, timbers and equipment from the railroad to Fish Creek, 30 miles away from Fairbanks, the material was transported half way to the creek where rail connections ended where it was unloaded and left to the ar engagements of the company to con- vey the remainder of the distance. Within a month, by super-human ef- fort almost, from the time the ma- terial was set off at the rail end, un- der the management of MT. Lemons, over 500 tons of the material was transported satisfactory to the creek bank, feat which, according to MT. Whitworth, has been uneQualled in the North. When it is considered the bad weather which was met with, causing the roads to become ram- bles of mul, hub deep, forcing the company to additional expenditures in the purchase of tractors and oth- CT machines with which to haul the material in, the enormous amount of tonnage freighted in to the creek site in such short space of time, is readily seen was a great task.
 30 Men On the Job.
 Since July l, the assembling of the complete hull has been under way with crew of about 30 men. To the crew MT. Whitworth paid marked compliment for their untiIing and consistent efforts to shove the work ahead as rapidly as possible He could not say at the present time just how many men wou,i be en- ployed on the dredge, following it's competitor.
 Praises Pioneers Alaska.
 MT. Whitworth said unstinted praise to the pioneers of Alaska is due them for the rough and ready measures used in the development of the country. Their determination and persistency in bringing the frontier territory to it's present standing, is wonderful showing. The courtesy of the Alaska Railroad officials and employees, over the entire line to Gil Jfcto nd dino features which MT. Whitworth said his company would ever recall. The anxiety to help in what ever man. ner they might, was very assuring and most satisfactory. Endeavors of this sort, where there is no com petition, is remarkable, he continued, and is splendid asset to the ter ritory.
