MAY REPORT FROM FAIRBANKS ENB;
NAVIGATION OPENED LATE AT NENANA
Although the first break-up of ice
in the Tanana River occurred on April
21), it was not until May 10 that the
river was open to navigation between
Xenana and Fairbanks. The flow of
ice was observed with great interest
in regard to possible damage to future
bridge piers and present bank protec
tion. Judging from observations made
this year it does not seem probable
that any grave danger is to be encoun
tered from moving ice. The bank pro
tection answered all requirements and
suffered no damage, although subject
ed to some heavy blows.
Nenana District
Clearing: All contracts have been
completed from Stations 17300 at Dry
Creek. Mile 357.5, to Nenana, Mile
40S.1. The total acreage cleared to
date is 1)32.99.
(Irailing: Contracts were awarded
for all the heavier cuts and for all
grading that could be done econom
ically with regard to water and frost
conditions for a distance of 31 miles
south of Nenana. The yardage ex
cavated during May was 35,617; total
\ ardage to date 111,828.
Building Construction: Warehouse
No. 1 addition was completed, giving
2200 square feet more floor space to
the structure. The piledriving was
completed on the dock extension; 53
piles were driven, aggregating 1512
lineal feet, the average penetration
being 15 feet. All were point thawed.
On May 21 the driving of piles for a
new warehouse was finished. There
were 209 piles driven, aggregating 3,
311 lineal ft., the average penetration
being 10 feet. The caps were 90 per
ACREAGE
Having for sale at a most reason
able price some of the choicest land in
Resurrection Valley I therefore invite
inquiries from those that contem
plate the purchase of any number of
acres. The success with which all of
those who have already bought
acreage in the Ole Martin homestead
are meeting in cultivating these lands
is the best evidence you can secure of
what the soil can do.

STEAM SHOVELS
AT WORK AGAIN
The steam shovel has been cut in
again at Mile 9 to lower that section
of the grade, having been taken out
on account of the special train service
last week.
Chairman Edes and Captain Mears
decided not to come here to meet As
sitant Secretary Meyer and party as
planned, and the preparations made to
take the party over the line bore no
fruit.
The party was shown the line as
far as the steam shovel work, how
: ever, being taken out on the private
car Seward last night by It. J. Weir,
engineer in charge. They expressed
thewselves as pleased with the work
j accomplished and were enthusiastic
over the prospective trip back over
the road from Anchorage, which they
expect to make after inspecting the
coal fields.
Ballasting of the road from the head
of the bay to Mile 8 continues. The
shovel at the gravel bank at Mile 5
has made one cut the full length of the
bank, and started on a second cut to
day. This work is being rushed under
double shift.
