TT a main work in the Kuskokwim
region last season by the Alaska
Road Commission, a« reported by
Superintendent Carl IiOttsfeldt who
left the city today for Juneau, con
sisted of the completion of the auto
incb'le road between Takotoa and
Ophir.
A new road on Little Creek, in
this section, was also advanced one
and one-half miles. A new 25 mile
tractor road was constructed between
upper Tuluksak Landing and Bear
creek. This road has been used most
ly by the New York Alaska Gold
Mining company.
Bead work in this section for next
year, though as yet not officially ap
proved, may consist of gravel sur
'acine between Flat :nj Iditarod.
Twc Ford tn’cks were sent in last
to help in this work. Mr. Lottsfeldt
said work will also be started on
the summer portage between Russian
Mission, on the Yukon, and Kaltshak,
on the Kuskokwim. Contracts for
ties was let this winter.
Some of the winter work inspect
ed consisted of placing mile posts
cn the Nenana-Flat trail between
Telida and Flat. Thirty miles on the
Flat-Holy Cross trail was relocated
shortening the old location 12 miles.
New shelter cabins were constructed
one at the Little Delta, betweeTi
Shagaluk and Iditarod: one at tlie
foothills on the Tuluksak-Bear creek
trail; and two on the winter mail
nail between Bethel and Quinhag&k.
RED FOX SCARCE
I
George Albert of Port Heiden, one
I of the oldest of the trappers on the
I Aleutian Pennsiula, reports the light
est catch of red fox he ever saw. In
; bygone years he had collected as high
: as 1,500 fox in a season. This year he
had a meagre one-dozen all told.
E. J. Beck, superintendent of the
Southwestern district, Bureau of Ed
ucation, made a trip the first of the
year to Kalukak and Togiak, to make
a survey of the government reindeer
herds. Doctor Randle accompanied
him to give medical aid to the natives
H. E. Bowman will make a run to
Me Cushen, Nickolosky, and Atka, to
look oVer fox farms. Mr. Bowman pas
sed thru Seward last month bound
Westward.
U. S. Deputy Marshal James S. Bo
gart,stationed at Unga, made the trip
on the last Starr to Unalaska. As
usual, he had considerable business
along the line.
The trappers around False Pass,
had a very good season on the trap
lines, say recent arrivals in Seward
from the Westward.
At King Cove the cannery is ex
pecting the crews to arrive about the
middle of March. There is plenty of
work to be done and a new dock to be
driven. Robert Gould is winter man at
the plant.
Judge Driffield, at Unga, has been
laid up with a miserable cold and has
not been out and around as much as
he usually is.

H. Brown, trader at False Pass, had
a very successful season this year, it
is reported. He has a nice place and
his wife and child make it a real
home. Recently he made a business
trip to Unalaska and returned on the
S. S. Starr.
Mr. Sjoberg, of Sjoberg and Ment
zer, located at Uyak, is very busy
these days on account of buying out
A. Krondall. During the recent bad

The Grebe
"Colortone”
hushes annoying sounds and al
lows notes of voice and instrument
to reach you in full natural tones
IT enables you to alter to your
taste the quality or timbre of
speech or music from high, thin
pitch to low, deep, round tones.
This receiver, unlike others, is
not at the mercy of the loud
speaker. The “Colortone” also
helps to subdue to a great degree,
the scratching, hissing, whistling
sounds that are usually the bane
of radio reception.
The “S's” and the ‘Tf's” are plainly
audible; naturalness of sound replaces
the artificiality which has heretofore in
terfered with radio enjoyment.
Do not miss a demonstration of this great
Grebe innovation.
