2 New Dredges
For 2nd Division
Joe and Barney Belleview,
who nave operated the Dry
Creek Dredging Co., for many
years, at Nome, are moving to
the Inmachuk section this year
where they will construct a new
dredge.
The new dredge will be of 3
cubic foot capacity buckets, and
be powered by Diesel. They have
taken a lease on the A. V. Coro
vado property 24 miles up the In
machuk river from Deering. The
machinery and dredge parts are
by Bethlehem Steel, and are
aboard the freighter Sutherland.
If ice conditions permit, they
should receive their machinery
and supplies by the latter part
of July and complete construc
tion by fall.

The American Creek Dredging
Co., of which Lloyd Root is man
ager, will operate two and one
half cubic foot dredge on that
creek this season, it was announc
ed upon the arrival oif Mr. Root
who was accompanied by his
wife. They arrived by plane Mon
day from Fairbanks.
The new dredge parts together
with diesel power units, ele-ctr;c
light plants, and other modern
camp equipment will be taken on
the tramway to Iron Creek
where it will be hauled over
land to American Creek, a dis
tance of about 10 miles. This op
eration will be carried forward
on the ground which the Bar
ney Rolandos have prospected
for some years.
The boat itself will be of the
pontoon type and will dig approx
l
innately three miles of property
which has been laid out ahead
of it. With each year seeing the
opening up property and the in
stallation of new dredges, Se
ward Pennsula’s gold production
during the next few years is de
stined to go ahead by leaps and
bounds. In addition to other
equipment it is expected that six
Allis-Chalmers tractors will be
used on the diggings, for freight
ing and stripping.

DAWN OF NEW DAY FOR HYDRAULIC MINING may bring a gold boom to land around Aobnrn, Cal., where
tbis concrete barrier 155 feet high crosses the American river, as the first of a series of debris dams being built under the direction of
army engineers. Before hydraulic mining was legislated out of existence in 1893 after years of strife between miners and farmers, it pro*
dura] the bulk of the gold mined in California. The lake is Intended as a settling basin for diggings unworked for years. _
