PRODUCTION OF GOLD
AT NOME SUFFERS A
LOSS COMPARISON 1926
■ i
Seward Peninsula's gold produc
tion for 1927 probably will be $500,
000 less than in. 1926, and conditions
were quiter during the year, saiid It.
W. J. Reed, Collector of Customs in
charge of the port of Nome to the
Juneau Empire upon his arrival at
Juneau last week from the far north
ern seaport and mining region.
Weather conditions hampered the
gold mining industry, he said. Spring
was unusualy late and the fall abnor
mally early The total gold shipments
made through the Custom House up
to November 1 was 60,486 ounces of
dust valued at $1,106,611. Mr. Reed
did not believe that late operations
would add more than $100,000 to this
amount. Last year up to the same
date gold shipments were valued at
$1,603,703.
The four dredges operated by the
Hammond interests did not have as
successful a year as in 1926. The
company's production was cut con
siderably by delays when it found
necessary to move two of its dredges
some 30 or 40 days being lost.
When the M. S. Sierra, owned and
operated by the Lomen interests, fail
ed to take on its cargo at Golovin,
the shipments of reindeer meat and
products fell below the quantity
which the Lomens had planned to
ship Ice conditions prevented load
ing the ship and a full cargo of deer
meat, 1,200 cases of canned reinder,
a large number of hides, and some
live reindeer had to be left at Golo
vin.
Despite this, however, the reindeer
shipments for the year were almost
as large as those of 1926. Deer meat
shipments for the year amounted to
744,014 pounds as compared to 753,
716 pounds. Twenty-six thousand, six
hundred and ninety-five pounds of
reinder hides were shipped to Seat
tle by the Lomens during the sum
mer. Last year (there were no hide
shipments.

Two or all three dials may be
set by rotating one—or each
dial may be adjusted separately.
Thus, in the Synchrophase you
have, at your option, a receiver

It means ease and speed in accu

like an arrow from a bow
Buick for 1928 gets away in traffic like
an arrow from a bow!
Watch the Buicks next time you drive
downtown. See how easily they step out
in front when the signal changes. And
note how they give other cars the slip
in the friendly rivalry of traffic.
You cannot say you know the full
meaning of “performance” until you’ve
driven a Buick for 1928.
