The Circle Hot Springs is drawing
health seekers from all parts of In
terior Alaska and Yukon Territory,
according to Frank Leach, owner of
the resort who was a visitor in Fair
banks last week. Twelve persons are
at the springs at the present time.
The average number throughout the
season has been about 40. Mr. Leach
has already started upon an exten

ibeen needed owing to the large
and steadily growing business.

'Major John Howorth, resident man
ager of the Tanana Valley Gold
Dredging Co., stated to the Fair
banks News Miner last week, that
two cleanups had been made this
season from the company’s Fish
Creek boat. “The results were very
satisfactory,” he said, “for the posi
tion we were in. We expect to be do
ing much better in the next few
weeks when we will be in better
ground. Dredging operations, which
began on July 22, were preceded by
a great deal of preliminary work. A
t-wo mile ditch was built, 2000 feet of
pipe line was set up, thawing equip
ment installed and penstocks made.
The cold water method of thawing
is employed and is giving very satis
factory results. Eight hundred points
are being used in thawing. The
dredge is handling about an average
jof 2,400 cubic yards per day. Ground
on Fish crek varies in depth from
: 19 to 35 feet and the dredge is dig
jging at present in ground which is
22 feet to bedrock. Two 12-hour
shifts are working and dredging
goes on day and night. It is stated
the company will dredge up to the
end of October and will continue
to work into November if possible.
