That the Alaska Experiment
Station Qf the Bureau of Mines
located at Fairbanks, is desirous
of keeping in touch with this
section of the country, is evi
denced by the fact they have
ordered the McCarthy Weekly

their reading room.
In a letter to the News, John
A. Davis, the superintendent
says: “The Alaska Station
of the Bureau of Mines, in addit
ion to its other work, plans to
maintain a reading room for the
use of the mining men, in which
your paper will be kept on file.
We aim to keep in touch with
mining development throughout
the entire Territory and feel
sure that your paper will prove
a valuable source of information
from your disti ict.
If on the other hand, we can
be of any assistance to you we
will consider a favor if you will
let us know about it.
Cordially yours
John A, Davis
Superintendent.
