Way to better Live
Stock.

From an analysis of enrolment
records in the Better Sires"-
Better Stock" campaign during the
first three months, the United
States Department Of Agriculture
presents figures showing that the
use CT purebre9 sires appears to
lead automatically to ownership OF
weIl-bred female stock also.
Summing up the factors which
will hasten live stock improvement
and bring many benefits, the depart
ment make the following requests
Of live stock owners.
Use purebred sires OF good quality
in all classes of live stock. Dispose
Of scrub, grade, and inferior pure
BRED sires.
Keep breeding records. Many
excellent animals Of pure breeding
have in the past been forced to
rank as grades or scrubs owing to
lack Of records.
Join an active live stock associa
ton and attend fairs, exhibitions.
and judging contest where well bred
animals Of good type are shown.
Read good agricultural literature,
including live stock and farm pa
pers. The Department Of Agricul
ture and the various State will send
helpful bulletins on request.
Cooperate with your county agent
your agricultural college, and other
constructive forces in improving the
quality of live stock in your com
munity.
Better live stock aids the breeder
both in direct returns and by giving
locality favorable reputation.
The sum total Of all improvement,
of course. ad.ances the information
al standing of The United States
with respect to its live stock and
livestock pocducts.

Red Bone Notes

WHO said Red Bone was the
darkest place in Lee County? II
you are the in lividual, now is the
time for you to be penitent. That
may have been true but that is
history, FOR the sun OF progress and
developments has already risen far
above the horizon, and if yop want
to- see n place in Lee County that
is advancing a. the rate OF mile a
minute, keep your eye on Red Bone
for she has the brighsest future Of
any district in the county.
The people who in the past may
have lived very far from each other
in a social way have undergone a
great change and the people who
once perhaps disagreed on minor
things do now all mind and speak
the same thing and that thing Is;
! better community, a better school
and the development OF better SO
cial relations and intellectual pow
ers regardless Of cost.
This may have been desert; but
if it waa, there surely was an oasis
around Red Bone. Ii you hare
contributed or should contribute
toward this awakening at Red Bone
we feel sure that you will be rewap
ed many fold III this life and that
tho one who take notice OF an fallen
sparrow will not lose sight OF this
kind deed in the great beyond,

Alaska's most valuable natural re
source-its salmon.
I'VE are going to do our utmost

Irrespective of the results in the
matter of legislation, we have al
ready begun the formulation of a
definite protective program for the
protection of the salmon, which
it is believed, will be a big step
in the right direction.
81 am keenly alive to the needs of
the situation and | am going to do
everything possible to the end that
the salmon industry is conserved
