Alaska, on the big freighter Oduna,
of the Alaska Steamship Company.
The Aleutian Livestock CompanT has
had 2.000 head of sheep on the west
side of Tnalaska Island for the last
three years and plans to increase this
new Alaska industry 1n a large way.
“We expect to make Seattle out
headquarters and market our wool
from this city." said Mr. Moore yes
terday. ‘Western Alaska is destined .
to become one of the greatest sheep
raising countries in the world. We
have found that Alaska wool has
only from 35 to 3f> percent shrink
age compared to from 65 to 70 per
cent shrinkage in the States. The
sheep on Tmnak Island will have
grazing twelve months of the year.
No Snow Year Around,
“There is no snow the year around
on the island and only an average of
two inches during the winter months
on Tnalaska Island. H J. Craven,
my personal representative, is going
to Tmnak Island on the Oduna. He
will arrange for the construction of
an electric sheep shearing plant.
There is a waterfall tw’n miles from
our camp on Tmnak Island capable of
producing 2.000 horsepower. Tmnak
Islands is 100 miles long. twenty-th-e*'
miles in width at its widest point and
contains 500,000 acres of fine sheep
grazing land.
“We have made three shipments of
wool from Tnalaska Island and focnd
the Alaska wool contains much less
dirt than any wool produced in the
States. Tmnak Island is 150 miles
west of Tnalaska. Our ranch is on
the western side of the island. The
sheep shipped on the Oditna are of the
Ramboulette and Delaine va-ie:ies
The shipment totals fifteen carloads
and came from Cascade, Mean The
consignment is valued at f60.O<><\
Land Leased From Government
“Seattle soon mill become a hie
sheep and m-ool center as a resnlt of
the industry we are building in a per
manent m-ay in Alaska,. Our head
quarters now are in Ogden Ft ah. bn:
m*e expect to move to Seattle soon.
The only countries producing wool of
a lower shrinkage than Alaska are
Southern Chile. Southern Argentina
New Zealand. South Australia and the
Falkland Islands.”
In addition to the sheep, the Aleu
tian Live Stock Company •- shipping
six horses and two cow? ox 'he Odrna
to its great ranch on Fnrrrk Island.
The sheep-crazing- land ir Western
Alaska is being: used by the Aleut an
Livestock Company unde- permit
from the government.
