mands for American flags of all sizes
from great banners to be flung to the
breeze down to small emblems to be
worn in the buttonhole, have swamped

their capacity, inquiry among local
manufacturers here revealed.
One firm said that from its three
factories, working with augmented
forces, about 2.000.000 flags of all
kinds are being turned out each week.
A fourth factory, it is announced, had
just been opened to handle a $100,000
government order for flags for var
ious branches of the national military
and civil services.
From the general public, it was said,
the greatest demand is for buttonhole
flags.

Mining Notes
A party of Treadwell engineers i
made thorough tests and soundings!
from the launch Amy a few days ago I
at high tide, and the greatest depth;
found anywhere from the center to j
the edges of the great subsidence, was
125 feet. This is regard by mining
men as a good indication of no furth
er subsidence at this particular spot
and that the big hole is filled in as
much as it probably ever will be ex
cept from the surface debris.
Sumner S. Smith, federal mine in
spector, who had been in Juneau, re
cently left for Anchorage where he ,
will spend the next six months as an
adviser to the railroad commission on
matters pertaining to coal claims in j
the Matamuska district.
Arrivals in Fairbanks from Fox re
port that drilling operations have,
been commenced on Goldstream by
the two representatives of the Oro
ville Dredging company who arrived
i here last week from the Outside. The
drill is now being operated on Num
ber 21, opposite the mouth of Engi-i
neer creek. It is understood that the
drill crew and the two engineers are
i comfortably located near their work.
Two crews arc to be put on as soon
as the work is well under way, and
the drilling will be pushed both day
and night.
Reports from the Marshall district
state that pay has been located on
six chums on Disappointment creek
which is richer than anything here
tofore located in that district.
