CANNED REINDEER
 FUTURE PRODUCT

The cannery car operated by the management of the Alas ka Railroad with view to demonstrating the possibilities of canning Alaska products for exportation, recently canned several cases of reindeer meat, as an experiment. Officials of the railroad who have eaten the canned meat say that it has a fine flavor and tastes somewhat like veal. As the meat is cooked in the can none of the moisture, which con- tains the flavor of the meat, escapes in cooking More of the meat will be canned and half a dozen cases will be shipped to Seattle where it will prob ably be used at a chamber of commerce dinner or served on the menu of one of the promi- nent hotels. By working up in- terest in this way Dewey Metzdorf, general storekeeper, believes that capital may be in- terested in putting a cannery in operation for the canning of reindeer.

 Edmonton, Dec. 20-Further extensions to the Peace River railways are likely to be on the government programme for the coming session of the Legislature.

M. s. NoRco WITHDRAWN

The motorship Norco of the Northland Transportation Co.,, has been withdrawn from the local steamship trade, accord ing to advices received by the Salmon River Dock Co.,, local agents, last week.
 The decision of the company to discontinue handling local traffic was entirely unexpect- ed, as advices received during the preceding week announced that the Norco would leave Seattle for this port last Mon- day.
 Recent arrivals from Seattle report that the Norco's retire ment was said by company officials to have been due pri- marily to the division of traf- fic caused by the placing of the Border Queen of the Bor- der Line Transportation Go. on the Seattle-Hyder run sev- eral months ago.

RESCUE PARTY
 HAS TOUGH TRIP

George Bum we'll known miner, arrived in town Monday from the Engineer Group in the Marmot section suffering from some form of malady which, in addition to causing him great pain, renedered his right arm almost useless for a time and later practically con- fined him to bed. He was as- sisted into town by party of five friends who had volun- teered to bring him in on learning that he was ill. News of Bunn's plight was brought to town by Homer Ficklin, who is prospecting on his claims in the vicinity of the isolated cabin occupied by Bum. During the earlier stages of Bunn's affliction, Ficklin assisted him at inter vals at some prospecting work. Later when Bunn's condition became more serious, Ficklin made him as comfortable as possible and cut good supply of wood before leaving for town for aid.
 The rescue party is said to have found great difficulty in reaching Bunn's cabin in the heavy snow and was practic- ally all day Sunday in arriv- ing at their destination, de- spite the fact that a large part of the trail was broken by sev- eral head of horses, encount-
 cred in Marmot valley, and driven before them. The party took along a hand sled, but Oh
 arriving at the cabin found that Bum was somewhat i'm
 proved and able to walk to l town with some assistance. Following his arrival the suf- ferer was taken to Stewart
 hospital for treatment.

The erection of a home in An chorage for enfeebled and in digent oldtimers of the Terri tory is to be vigorously advo- cated by Anchorage Igloo No. 15, Pioneers of Alaska. The first formal action along that line was taken a short time ago when the Igloo voted to take up the matter with the Fairbanks and Nome Pioneers with a view to securing their cooperation in presenting the matter to the Territorial Legis- lature next spring according to the Valdez Miner. In the event it is found impossible to carry out the full plan of mov- ing the home to Anchorage, an effort will be made to secure funds for the erection of a branch home ill Anchorage to take care of the overflow. The Pioneers already have a five acre tract just outside the limits of Anchorage, given to the Igloo by Oscar Anderson on condition that the land be utilized as a site for such q home. An adjoining 5-acre tract has also been offered if the campaign proves success full.

ORE BREAKING RECORD MADE AT ALASKA
 JUNEAU MINE.

What is believed to be a rec ord breaking down for rock was set recently in the Alaska Juneau mine when a single shot brot down 5,0O0,000 tons of rock, says the Juneau Elm pire. Ten and one-half tons of powder were used in the blast.
 The movement of this vast amount of rock was felt dis tinctly throughout the town. In a number of places the dis turbance was attributed to an earthquake. Dishes were rat tied on shelves in some of the homes. Even the Goldstein building was slightly rocked by the jar. The shot was fired at 3:03 p. m. last Saturday.

CHRISTMAS TREE ENTERTAINMENT IS
 FINE SUCCESS

The annual Community Christ mas Tree, held Friday evening in Pioneer Hall, under the auspices of the Moose lodge, was a splendid success. All the kiddies were there, of course, and also a major portion of the adult population. The lat ter apparently enjoyed the proceedings quite as much as the children, judging from the smiles that wreathed their countenances as they watched the little folks react to the joyful eagerness af anticipa- ion until it eliminated in the unconcealed gladness of reali- zation, as their tiny hands re- ceived the gifts bestowed by merry old Santa Claus from the festooned boughs of the huge Christmas tree.
 The Moose, patrons of child hood, with characteristic gene rosity, provided a splendid gift and also a stocking full of goodies for every child in the community and these were in every instance so augment ed by rememberances from friends and relatives that each kiddie's arms was full by the time the last gift was be- slowed.
 The gift giving was not con- fined to the little one's alone, as many took advantage of occasion to surpsise adult friends by hanging their offer ings on the tree.
 The gift distribution was pre- ceded by a short program of songs and recitations by the children, in which the tots ac- quilted themselves splendidly. The big hall was handsomely decorated and, with the re- spIendent Christmas tree, pre- sented a decidedly pleasing spectacle to the eye.
 The entertainment was excel lently managed and the com mittee in charge is entitled to the utmost praise and the thanks of the community for their highly capable and suc- cessful efforts.

materials A site for the mill, which, of course, must be on tide water, will have to be found, and likewise a town site, for we will have thou sands of people at work in the mill, in tho woods, in the ship ping and supply sections, while naturally a number ot other industries to supply the people will grow up at the town and must be provided for. ....

Other islands in the vicinity and lands on the mainland are potential surces of timber supply.

CONTEMPLATE THIRTY
 MILLION DOLLAR
 PULP INVESTMENT

plant development contem plated by the Zellerbach Pap CT Go. near Ketchikan are giv en in detail in the followinG article from the San Franciscc Chronicle of November 18th
 "A water power and paper. and pulp development in Alas ka the ultimate cost of which will be close to $30,00O,O0O. providing employment for from three to four thousand men and producing 500 tons of paper a day, is under consider ation by a group of San Fran cisco capitalists and manufact- urers. Hydroelectric plants to produce 50,O00 horsepower are contemplated
 "The local men headed by Isadore and J. D. Zellerbach of the Zellerbach Paper Con- pany, have applied to the Federal Power Commission for a preliminary permit to in- vestigate and make surveys on Revillagigedo Island. Eight prospective power sites are covered by the application.
 Upon the result of the invest igation, which may take two years to complete, will depend the question of the develop ment. Not until the survey has determined the amount ot power that can be developed at each of the sites, and wheth- CT they can be tied in to af- ford a maximum of power de- velopment, together with the cruise of the amount of timber available, can the feasibility of the project be decided.
 "We have reports that the thing can be done," said Isa- dore Zellerbach yesterday, in discussing the plans of himself and associates, who include M. R. Higgins and E. M. Mills, Vice-President of the Zeller- bach Company.
 While several surveys and investigations by substantial concerns have been made to determine Alaska's possibili- ties for paper manufacture, none of them have been suf- ficiently promising to justify the investment of a big sum of money. Many power appli- cations also have been filed with the Federal Board, but most of them by promoters.
 We, however, have been quietly looking into this thing for a long time and the offic- ials of this company, MT. Hig- gins, MT. Mills and myself, have made a personal investi- gation. I spent a few weeks up there last season. It looks good and if the conditions will justi- fly it, we will spend approxi- mately $3O.OO0,O00.
 :" May things, however, must be determined. The Govern ment is anxious to get the pap CT and pulp industry started in Alaska and is offering every encouragement to concerns that wish to make investigat- ions. So we are going at it right.
 {" We will send a force ot power engineers and survey ors into the district next spring, while expert timber, men will cruise the land and determine the amount of tim Der, the future source of raw
