C., and took a trip through the Frazier Lumber Mills. where 390.OOO feet of lumber are produced daily There were five saws in operation and he found much pleasure in watching the smooth flow of lumber throughout the mill. He was especially inter ested in seeing plyboard made from steamed logs on spindles, which, rotating on great knife, were peeled into huge sheet until the logs were down to ten-inch diame- ters. He followed the process through the cutting of the sheets into standard lengths to where the lengths were glued together with alternating sheets in cross grain, then subjected to weight and dried

PLANE DROPS DIESEL ENGINE
 IN PIECES BY PARACHUTES

Clarence w. Poy, mining en- gineer who over year ago took over the Big Four mine, twelve miles up Mineral Creek, near Val dez, recently accomplished the seemingly impossible task of trans porting a complete 20-horsepower diesel engine by airplane to his property.
 The Big Four mine is practically inaccessible except by plane and during the winter MT. Poy was able to land all of his food supplies and light equipment by air. However, summer presented a different prob lem, but by the use of parachutes, Mr. Poy successfully landed the en- zine at the mine. The following ac- count to the Cordova Times of the operation by Mir. Poy describes this newest method of transportation:
 "On July s, 1894, the Big Four mine near Valdez successfully trans ported it's 20-horsepower Fairbanks Morse full-deisel engine from the town of Valdez to the property by means of plane and parachutes. The diesel was deposited within a few hundred feet of the tunnel
 This new type diesel was taken apart first, and the heaviest, fra giie parts were wrapped in mat tresses and dropped by parachute from an elevation of 300 feet. Care was taken to harness the machin- cry to the chutes so that the par cels landed in the most desirable position. There was no guesswork as to what position the parcel would land. The heaviest piece of machinery was about 25O pounds, and was dropped in snow that col leets around the edge of the glacier
 Two Russel parachutes, one of them 24 feet in diameter and one 2S feet in diameter, were used. MT. Walter Hall, a licensed parachute specialist, provided the parachutes and engineered the dropping MT. Reeve, whose Fairchild plane is es- pecially adapted to this type of work, did the flying.
 Where planes cannot land, l do not hesitate to recommend this me thod of transportation when time and assurance are vital factors. I believe that this supplementary me thod of transportation (the para chutes) will be used at properties that are far from landing fields

He found is fascinating to watch the suspension of pulp car ried through on very fine screen to where it's water content had been completely removed and to observe how great sheets of paper while still in solution running over rollers, have the edges trimmed by a fine trickle of water.
 Returning to Seattle Mr Peder- son attended the meeting of the Washington and Alaska synod which convened July 1913.
 The youths spiritual movement seems to be the keynote of religious work everywhere of every denom- ination, reports MT. Pederson.

News has been received in An chorage that Iver Nearhouse and George Johnson have uncovered splendid gold quartz veins in the Hope area, where they have been prospecting the last two years. They drove 200 feet of tunnel dur ing that time, and recently started to clear off their old dump to make a set up for actual mining. In dig ging down in the dump they re- ceiyed a happy surprise by un- covering a second vein close to where the original tunnel was started The quartz from the new vein shows highly promising free milling gold.
