As it result of lnve?tlgatlons made
by K. O. Woodruff and D?an K.
Winchester, the United State* Geo
logical Survey ha* Ju?t published as
Bulletin 471-0, a report on the coal
fields of the Wind River region, In
Fremont and Natrona counties,
Wyoming. The primary purpose of
th? Investigation was to obtain data
for the classification of the public
land and to collect Information re
lating to the amount and character
of the coal in order to fix a price
at which such land should be offer
ed for sale.
The Wind River coal fields com
prise an area of about 2,500 square
miles and include the geographic
center of the State. This region
lias been known to contain coal of
commercial value since some of th?
??earlier explorers examined coal
beds along I'opo Agle River. Only
small mines mere opened, however.
Uerauso the sparse settlement af
forded very little local market and
there whs 110 comuierclal market
which could be reached until 1906,
when the Wyoming & Northwestern
Railroad was completed from Casper
to lender.
The coal, which is a low-grade bi
tuminous coal, when reduced to a
coarse powder is black but when
crushed to a very fine state is dark
brown. It burns with a short red
flame, ignites readily, and produces
ash not Inclined to clinker. When
burned in a store the coal does not
fuse and shows no tendency to coke
The Wind River coal Is best
adapted for domestic fuel, hut It has
been employed satisfactorily under
stationary boilers, in limekilns, and
In similar places where forced draft
is not required. Owing to the
rapidity with which it disintegrates,
the coal must be shipped In box
cars and can be held In storage only
a short time after It Is mined
This results in mining only in winter
when fuel is needed for immediate
use and when mining Is more diffi
cult and more expensive than in
summer.
The market for coal in the Wind
River region is limited to a few
towns along the railroad and to
widely separated ranches in the
area Consequently the produce of
the large mines must be shipped to
places reached by railroad outtide
of the region. In these markets,
however, ?he coal Is brought Into
competition with that of other fields
in Wyoming and In Iowa, where
mining conditions are generally mor
favorable or where a better grade
of coal Is obtained
A copy of the report may be
obtained free on application to the
director of the Geological Survey,

Although the nights are cold, and
the mercury drops two to six de
grees below the f reeling point, the
dredges near Dawson continue op
eratlons without Interruption, and
likely will not stop for weeks. The
dredges on the Klondike may run
until well on In December.
Some of the hydraulic plants may
shut down any time now. Ice in the
riffles causes trouble.
The dredge stackers have been
hooded within the laat few days
with canvas. The front thus Is ex
cluded from the bearings.
Construction of the two mammoth
dredges on the Klondike, a mile or
two above the city, by the Cana
dian-Klondike Mining company, Is
being rushed day and night. The
dredges are now being enclosed. ?

Trade At Home
II is a hard thing to convince some people, who have acquired the
* mail order habit that it is to their advantage to trade at home. The
green fields fur away appeal to them, so they send their money out of
town for something that is no better than can be found on the local
merchant's shelves. The money is thus gone where they, nor any one
of the community, will ever see it again, and where it can do nobody
good but the person who has it and he is hundreds or thousands of
miles away.
THE MAIL ORDER PEOPLE
are not the only offenders who are blind to the interests of the commu
nity. The merchants are just as bad. Many of them send away for
their printing, while at the same time argue against mail order business.
