In the Northland
Seattle. Aug. 2 4.—The first ship
ment of a total of 3000 reindeer
carcassees to be sent to all parts of
of the United States will arrive in
Seattle from Nome about Septem
ber 10. according to a statement
made to the Seattle Chamber of
Commerce by Carl J. Lomen. of the
company bearing his name, rive
thousand reindeer are available for
meat, but transportation facilities
will permit only 3000 to be shipped.
Men are now culling over the sur
plus young male reindeer in t je Gol
ovin herd, preparatory to slaughter
ing and shipping, Mr. Lomen says.
All meat will be stored in the giant
refrigertors of the Seattle port
commission until transshipped to
other citiees. The increase of fawns
in the herds this year is substantial.
Mr. I.omen adds. The steamship
Victoria will bring the reindei r :is
fast as possible.
Successfully completing its test
trip over the course which it will
serve as a passenger service carrier,
the 400-horse power flying boat of
the Pacific Airways Company, re
turned to Seattle from Vancouver.
B. C. A one-day flight to Juneau
will he attempted later in the
month. With a desire to test the
new craft in a long flight, and the
expressed wish of several local per
sons to make a trip to Alaska by
air. the promoters of the passenger
service are considering a trip to
Juneau some time this montu. Tr.ey
expect to make the one-way flight
between dawn and nightfall.
Bringing 50.000 cases of salmon,
the Pacific American Fisheries
steamship Catherine P . arrivi d at
Bellingham this week. This is the
vessel's second trip from Alaska
this season with salmon—her first
cargo being 55.000 cases
Dr. C. C. Georgeson. director of
the agricultural experiment sta
tions in Alaska, spent several d.'iys
in the inspection of the experiment
isiation at MatanusKa and in looking
over the agricultural prospects
'the MatanusKa valley. He was
,verv much pleased wth the work
that has been done at the station
during the past year. He states
that excellent progress has bee:.
! made in all lines and particularly
. in respect to the clearing of the hit.d
,and in the construction of the farm
buildings. Dr. Georgeson com
j mented very favorably on the live
; stock prospects of the valley and
especially that of "dairying, and if
very enthusiastic over the sheep
prospect and suggested that befor.
; long many farmers would have
I their own flocks.
! The Alaska salmon pack for 19CI
I will run 1,500,000 cases of reds.
1500.000 cases of pinks and 230.000
chums, according to P. V. Branch
j manager of the salmon department
!turned last week from his annual
inspection trip north. In 1920 th>>
Alaska salmon pack was 4.500.000
leases, a large percentage being
chums front Southeastern Al;. ki
Mr. Branch estimates the 100,000
cases of sockeyes packed on Paget
Sound this season and 225.000 cases
of Ohinooks packed on the Colum
bia river. The normal 1921 pack
on Puget Sound should be 1.:!00.0<m
packed 4SO.OOO cases, and this year
the pack falls back to the record of
1912. The total pack of salmon in
1920 in the North Pacific waters
from Columbia river to sen
including British Columbia, was 7.
500,000 cases. Last year South
east Alaska alone packed 2.200.000
cases of light grades ^pf salmon.
This season the total pack, including
British Columbia, will not be over
2,500.000 cases.
Favored with idcil weather and
with labor, for the first time since
the war. both plentiful and efficient,
the construction program for t?ie
season of the government rai'roui
in Alaska is two months ahead of
schedule, according to advices re
ceived from the Anchorage head
quarters of the Alaska Enp>*.c Tl'ic
Commission by Major C E. Dele. ii:
charge of the Seattle offices ot the
