The Wrangell sawmill started the seasons operations on Tuesday morning. The mill is being operated under a lease held by company which was recently incorporated under the laws of Alaska. The ih- corporators are: w. T. Hale, D. A. Rasmuson, G. s. Chapin.
 According to MT. Chapin who ar rived here last week the company already has enough orders to in sure a busy season for the mill.
 Work was begun Tuesday on the construction of a dry kiln. Inas- much as the foundation for the dry kiln was completed before the holi- days it is expected that the con- struction of the dry kiln will go forward rapidly.
 The dry kiln will add greatly to the productiyeness of the mill. With a kiln, box orders can be filled much more promptly, and it will not be necessary to carry such a large stock in the yard.
