any previous season In the history of the Tanana It was at first thought that the taking out of the dumps In the winter time was not an economical way of mining in the Tanana the handling of the gravel twice being a great ex- pense but the shortage of water In the early spring months leaving a very short season during which the water supply can be relied upon has made the wisdom of the old methods apparent even to the most earnest theorists in the advisability of mer work only Big dumps will be taken out and advantage taken of the water supply as it comes Kelley will have a capacity of horsepower working on his ties this winter and every ounce of power will be utilized to bring to the surface as much of the pay gravel as it can handle There will be one plant on 3 above Fairbanks creek two on 3 above on Dome and one on G below on Dome Other operators will be equally busy Kelley believes but for the gation in which much property on Dome is involved that creek would have shown
