EXPERIMENTAL FUR FARM
l
The need of a small demonstra
tion and experimental fur farm
in Alaska is more evident than be
fore, states E. F. Graves, Territorial
veternarian, who recently was at
Petersburg. At such a ranch the
fox farmers could see the results
of various feeding tests and other
ranch methods and it would be the
center of exchange for better ideas
and tend toward cooperation nev
er before obtained, he said.

REVIVED INTEREST IN
The cutting of six feet of ledge [
matte in the Eklutna Power Com i
pany’s tunnel, being driven from j
the power house site ' • the lake,;
has revived interest in the KnirC'
Tt.iver region, where a large and!
promising ledge of copper ore;
crops. This ledge was discovered j
by M J. Conroy and Paddy Marion 1
in 1906. and is spoken of very fav- |
orably in Moffit’s report of 1925. j
The vein is exposed near the head- ■
waters of Jim Creek and passes:
across the mountain into Wolverine j
Creek It c.onsistes of an intermix- j
lure of massive chalconyrite and S
pvrrhntite from four to eight feet i
■.ide. Assays gave 15.09 percent'
-oppe!, 2.95 zinc, 1.75 ounces silver j
per ton.
Whde the vein matter cut in the
iEklutna tunnel carries an appre
ciable amount of sulphites, those in
‘a portion to know report it as not
! worthy of excitement, but having a
j -tronp bearing upon the smaller
'gold nuartz veins cropping in the
j vicinity. The ledge matter was en
countered in a line contact. Across
the lake is a massive iron gassan
: evidently capping copper or silver.
ANIMALS ATE HIM
Gus Heiderich was recently
! found frozen near Sitka. His
hands, part of his face and his
left shoulder had been eaten by
animals. Heiderich was born in
Germany, the Sitka paper says,
and came to Alaska in 1898; he is
reported to have prospected in the
Tanana Valley in 1905.
TANANA AT CORDOVA
The freighter Tanana. of the
Alaska Steamship Company, on
which will arrive the third big
Mikado locomotive, was scheduled
to arrive at Cordova today, it is
reported. In all probabilities the
vessel will load copper ore there
which wouid bring her to the port
of Seward in a couple of days.
