WAGON BRIDGE
TO BE BUILT
Road Comniision to Finish Palmer
Knik Road Junction Highway
Soon
Work on wagon road feeders to the
government railorad in the Matanuska
Valley section is being pushed by the
Territorial and War Department's
road men.
O. A. Hall, designing engineer for
the Alaska Road Commission, has
completed his field work and is en
route to Juneau, where he will draw
up plans for the wagon bridge across
the Matanuska river at Palmer can
yon.
The bridge at Palmer canyon will be
built this fall and will consist of one
150-foot span and one 100-foot span,
of combination steel and wood, and a
159-foot pile trestle approach.
The bridge, when completed, would
be first-class in every respect and will
meet all demands. Hall said while here
en route south that the wagon road
from Palmer to Mile 20 on the Knik
Willow Creek wagon road would be
finished this summer and as much!
work done on the Willow creek road
as possible. Two crews are now work- j
ing on the Willow Creek road and it j
is the intention to get the road in
shape for heavy hauling by Septem-j
ber. A survey will be run from Tal
keetna to Cache creek this fall and the
trail brushed out for permanent work
next season.

LAND DEPARTMENT REPORTS
ON HOMESTEAD ENTRIES
The Land and Industrial Depart
ment authorizes the following:
A statement received from the
United States Land Office at Juneau
shows that there were fourteen appli
cations filed in that office during the
month of June, 1917, for homesteads
in the Matanuska and Susitna Valleys,
eight of the applications being allowed
at the time they were filed and six are
pending for further action. Of these
applications, two are pending for evi
dence of citizenship; two are rejected
because of conflict with the original
townsite withdrawal at Wasilla; one
rejected because it embraces unsur
veyed tracts of land, and one which
amends a former homestead entry is
awaiting further administrative ac
tion.
On June 27, Eugean B. White, of
Anchorage, filed a relinquishment of
his homestead embracing the SW V< of
Sec. 12, T. 17 N., R. 1 E., S. M., about
two miles northeast of Matanuska.
The Register issued final certificate
on June 21 to Peter Murray, of Mata
nuska, whose homestead embraces the
SVjNW%, NHSWVi of Sec. 21; S%
NEtt, N%SE%, of Sec. 20, T. 17 N.,
R. 1 E., S.M., l?i miles from the town
of Matanuska. Mr. Murray was
among the early settlers in the Mata
nuska Valley, having located upon his
land sometime during the year 1911,
and he is one of the first homestead
ers in this valley to recive a regis
ter’s final certificate. The issuance of
final certificate when the homesteader
has complied with all the terms and
conditions necessary to obtain title is
practically the equivalent of a patent
issued, the homesteader becoming
prima facie the equitable owner of the
land.

35 MILES OE
GRADE READY
Gives Progress Report On Line From
Tanana River Toward
Coal Fields
District Engineer F. H. Bailey, in
charge of work between Nenana and
“Lignite," a station in the Nenana coal
fields, reported on July 15th that work
is progressing satisfactorily along the
entire line and that practically all
grading to 35-Mile Crossing will have
been completed by the first of August,
with the exception of a short stretch
of swamp, perhaps, half a mile in
length. All of the heavier cuts have
been started as far as the Nenana
river and the grading around the bluff
at 35-Mile Crossing will be finished
in about three weeks. Contractor
Bartlett, who is working in the vi
cinity of 30-Mile roadhouse, should be
through with his work about the mid
dle of July.
The Chandler party, which is locat
ing the spur which is to tap the coal
beds on Upper Lignite creek, is mak
ing rapid progress.
Bailey states that besides the men
engaged in railroad building, mosqui
toes are exceptionally busy along the
line, he and Raeburn having encoun
tered them at every point. They ap
pear to be equally as numerous this
summer as they wore last and make
traveling particularly uncomfortable.
A.
FIRST 110-TON ENGINE
ON THIS DIVISION
Locomotive No. 285 from Panama is
now in service and is being used in
the ballasting of this end of the line,
working two shifts in charge of Engi
neers Anderson and Calvert. It is the
first 110- locomotive to be used on this
division of the U. S. R. R.
The second locomotive from Panama
will be put in service during Septem
ber.
