NORTHERN NOTES
Louis Blackburn left McGrath a
few weeks ago, headed for Lake Min
chumina, where he has taken up a
ranch and will engage in fur farming
operations.
M. .E S. Brunelle of Cordova was
recently chosen exalted ruler of the
Elks at the annual election of offi
cers. He succeeds K. G. Robinson.
The office holders will be installed on
the first Wednesday in April.
James Williams died last month at
Dawson just a month after he had
entered that institution. On Decem
ber 13 he entered the hospital here
after a trip up from Fortymile with
Percy de Wolfe. Mr. Williams came
from Moose creek, where he had been
engaged in mining for many years.
The N. C. Company of Alaska, suc
cessor by purchase six years ago to
the several posts and enterprises of
the Northern Commercial company,
also succeeds to the name and flag
of the parent organization, in accord
ance with agreement at the time of
purchase. The N. C. Company of Al
aska has filed change of name.
Owners and interested members of
! the Yukon Silver Fox ranch, Limited,
may feel greatly encouraged at the
promising showing made by their re
spective fox farms during the past
year. The past season has proved a
very successful one in this home in
dustry as to date there are over fifty
pelts ready for -shipment to the out
side.
A special committee of the An
chorage Chamber of Commerce me<t
last week at the office of Tom Price,
with regard to the proposed cream
ery to handle the mill fom local and
Matanuska valley dairies. W. J. Bo
gard, one of the prominent ranchers of
the valley appeared before the com
mittee and gave his opinions of pro
posed creamery.

The Northern Commercial company,
the “Old N. C. Co.,” as it has been
known of late, has dropped out of
existence with the disilution of its cor
poration. All property and accounts
remaining at the time of discorpor
ation were assigned to the Alaska
Commercial company, and John H.
Kelly of Fairbanks will act as their
agent in clearing the business taken
over from the former company.
Interest in the annual breakup is
| assuming big proportions at Nenana,
according to arrivals from the inter
ior. There is a strong belief there
that the mild weather will have the
effect of sending the ice out of the
Tanana river earlier than is usual
and the present indications are that
the marking of tickets for the Nenana
breakup sweepstakes will show some
very unusual figures.
John McDonald, well know’n old
timer, who resided at McGrath for
several years, and who took one of
the last boats for the Outside, died
at Seattle shortly after reaching that
city, according to word received at
McGrath. Death was probably due
from the effects of intestinal influ
enza, contracted by Mr. McDonald
while on the lower river last sum
mer, at which time the influenza epi
demic prevailed in that section.
J. C. Edney arrived at Cordova re
cently to become superintendent of
the Cordova Packing company plant
this year, succeeding D. Nielson. In
1925 Mr. Edney was in charge of the
Pioneer Packing company plant a>t
Bering river, which he understands,
will not be operated this season. Over
hauling of the Cordova Packing coip
pany cannery and boats has practi
cally been completed and everything
is ready to start work as soon as wea
ther conditions permit.
This division of the territory will
probably send out fewer insane pa
tients this year than in the past, ac
cording to S. O. Casler, chief deputy
TJnitad States marshal of Valdez. He
anticipates that the Bristol Bay clean
up after the cannery season will be
much lower than usual, due to a new
bureau of public health regulation,
providing for medical inspection of
cannery help before the men embark
for the north. Doctors will be station
ed at the boats leaving San Francisco
, Astoria and Seattle for Bristol bay and
will eliminate those not having clean
bills of health.
David Strandberg, Iditarod mining
operator wiio makes his home in An
chorage during the winter months,
his family residing there while the
children are attending school, is in
Fairbanks for a few days while en
route to the Iditarod for a season’s
mining activity. Mr. Strandberg will
make the trip over the Nenana-Mc
Grath trail, and has his dog team
awaiting him at Nenana.
Tom Aitken, who has been making
his headquarters at the : Hotel Olym
pic in Seattle during the winter, left
recently for Honolulu says a report
-*w««Kiy ft*- mmtouftr «r>
there to meet Mrs. Aitken, who has
been visiting in Australia and who is
now en route back to the States. Mr.
and Mrs. Aitken probably will spend
the next summer in the Kantishna
district, as they intend to do some
extensive development work on Cop
per mountain where they have option
ed several large holdings.
Bedding Needed at
Jesse Lee Home for
Six New Children
The local Jesse Lee Auxiliary of
the Homes Mission Society, have
been asked to furnish bedding for
six additional beds at the Home to
take care of a group of children

Saturday on the S.S. Starr. Mem
bers of the organization will be mak
ing a call on the townsfolk for
