POSTOFFICE APPLIED FOR
AT THE GRANITE MINE
A petition lias been presented to
| the postal department for the esab
ltshment of a postofflee at the Gran
ite mine. Hobo Bay. The name of
the new office when establish will
be “Granite.” with W. J. Millard as
postmaster.
There are more than one hundred
men employed in the Granite mine,
district, and the postofflee will prove
a great convenience for them. The
launch Shamrock, which carries the
mail from Valdez to Port Wells and
way ports, calls at the Granite nearly
every trip, and the added expense of
crossing the bay from Golden will be
very small.

SURVEYORS FINISHING'
WORK IN NENANA FIELDS
The surveyors who have been work
ing in the Nenana coal fields for the
past two months have nearly complet
ed their work, and will soon leave for
the states. The party has been head
ed by W. H. Thorne and W. C. Guerin.
It is stated that the horses which have
been used for packing the party’s
outfit during the summer will not be
sold but will be turned over to the
Alaska Road commission.
'EXPERT SITS HiSM
IS IN GRAIN BELT
Prof. C. C. Georgensen, head of the
government experimental agricultural
stations In Alaska, declares that the
Interior of Alaska will rival Canada
and the western grain states when the
territory has been settled. "Let the
right kind of people settle in Alaska
and you will see production of grain
and farm products that will be as
tonishing,” he told a Seattle newspa
per man before leaving for Alaska on
the last trip of the Northwestern.
In speaking of the experimental
stations In interior Alaska, Prof Geo
rgesen said:
"Our work this year has been very
successful and wheat, barley, oats,
and rye have made very heavy yields
and have ripened successfully where
ever planted. The vast Interior re
gions of Alaska are suited for the j
various valuable grains and for gen
eral farming has been proven. The j
coast regions are better fitted for the 1
raising of stock, feed and vegetables.
The coast would also make a great ^
datrylng country, and the government
dairy farm started on Kodiak island
is doing well. Although this has been
the dryest season we have ever ex
perienced, the experimental farming
has ben very successful. In the in
terior the grain grew short straw but
on the other hand bore a heavy yield
of grain itself.”
