constituting the biggest moving
operation ever attempted on Sew
ard Peninsula, has been transferr
ed to a new location on Center
Creek. The job is being handled
by Contractor Curtis of Seattle,
who took special equipment to
Nome- They had to wait for the
cold weather to freeze the tundra
to support the great weight. It is
estimated that the Hammon Co.,
has enough dredging ground lor
pay gravel to keep them going for
50 years.
THREE YEARS
Three years in the federal peni
tentiary was the sentence im
posed at Fairbanks on G. A. Grove
who, by his own and free
admission, was guilty of the crime
of grand larceny. Grove served a
term in San Quentin for burglary,
says the News Miner.
NEAR FAIRBANKS
Engineer Creek, one of the old
time producers of the camp, will
be mined again by the drifting
method this year. Pay was found
on the creek by Albert Littlewood,
who has a lay on the Engineer as
sociation, and is going ahead with
mining operations, says the News
Miner.

The KOHLER Automatic*
produces 110-volt current
The Kohler Automatic Power and Light Plant produces
standard 110-volt electricity, and therefore allows you to
use the same standard electric light bulbs and appliances
used in cities. These appliances are available everywhere
and cost less than those of lower voltage.
Coupled with this advantage of the Kohler Automatic is
the feature of ‘ ‘no storage batteries. ’ ’ This does away with
the trouble and expense of maintaining a large bank of
glass-cell storage batteries. The only battery used with
the Kohler Automatic is a small, automobile-type, for
starting the engine.
Thus the Kohler Automatic gives you all the advantages
of city electricity with the same convenience—simply
turn any button on the circuit and you have electricity
for power or light. Send for illustrated booklet. Come in
and see the plant in operation. «
