THOUSANQ MILE SNOW
imp NOT BAD DEWS
ROAD SUPERINTENDENT
Apnarantly a thousand-mile mush
is nothing in the lifes of Carl F.
Lottsfeldt, superintendent of the
Alaska Road Commission activities in
the Kuskokwim region, and Lavs
Indegard, driver and “Prince of fel
lows,” using Lottsfeldt’s own words.
They, left Takotna on November 30,
and arrived at Kanatak, about 49
days later or on January 17. And
with the exception of a few days
♦hose toughened trail warriors say
tie trip was devoid of any hardship.
As one Seward man said; This Alas-j
ku Road Commission gang are aj
great bunch of fellows.”
However, Mr. Lottsfeldt inspected
trails and shelter cabins in the Kus
h-ikwim and Bethel districts. Travel
ling from Takotna Hiey headed for
Flat and. then to Holy Cross, on the
Yukon. Bethel was reached via the
Paimute-Kaltshak portage..
Leaving Bethel on December 21,
the men traveled along the Kusko
kwim Bay to Goodnews Bay, thence
Fast through Togiak, Kulukuk, and
Dillingham. From this point to Kog
giung, Naknek, Egegik and across
Becharoff lake into Kanatak. Weath
ov conditions, with few exceptions,
were good all the way.
The trip between Bethel and Kana
tak may be difficult in spots but the
treatment and ccusideration shown
travelers by government school teach
ers, cannery people and others a’ong
the ”0016, cannot be excelled in Alas
1 ’-. Mr. Lottsfeldt stated. This por
t-on of the trail is the so-called
famous “Coffee Route;” between.
K°ggiung and Egegik At every point
the traveler is invited in'for a cup
r,‘ hot coffee and “Oh boy!” ex
Mf.’rn Lottsfeldt and Indegard, “she
sure went good.”
Mr. Lottsfeldt departed today for
Juneau headquarter? of the Alaska
Pond Commission. He plans return
ing to Seward in about three weeks
enroute to Nenana from which point
ho and Indegard will take-off into
He wilderness again, to tbe district
headquarters at Taeotna.

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.

Word comes from Bethel that J. W.
Felder, of the Felder & Gale Com
, mercial Co., has disposed of their
large stores and warehouses at Beth
el and Akiak to the Northern Commer
cial company.
According to the report received by
The Gateway, it was not stated what j
field of endeavor Mr. Felder will take |
up but it is probable he will do like
most Alaskans, go to California, buy
an orange grove and long for a whiff
of ozone from the bracing winds of j
Alaska.
SNAKE RIVER FOX FARM
Peter Nelson and his brothers are
making arrangements in Bristol Bay
to start a large blue fox ranch on
Snake river, the coming year. The
boys have a large reindeer herd at
this place with a corps of appren
tices and will work the two enter
prises conjunctively.
CARIBOU, REINDEER, MIX
It is claimed that the caribou have
been working up the coast from Port
Moller and Bear river regions to the
foothills of the Ugashik mountains
where they are now quite plentiful, ar
rivals in SewarS bring word. They
seem to be mixing with small herds
of reindeer which have escaped from
the government herds.
