A THOUGHT FOR CHRISTMAS
Gifts are friendships symbols, fine,
Men like to give to them they love;

Gifts are friendships symbols, fine,
Men like to give to them they love;
They come to earth with gifts divine,
To do the tasks of God above,
And there where all is understood
Where it is known how they have striven,
Not what they've kept shall mark them good,
But what to others they have given
The happiest man is he who gives,
To cheer the life Of him who takes;
Who smiles on all with whom he lives,
And for them all pathway makes,
And he has lived his life the best
Who has not toiled for selfish needs,
But has at every chance expressed
His kindly thoughts by kindly deeds.
Nor is it quite enough to give
Unselfshly unto the few;
There is larger life to live,
There is bigger work to do.
That day when man m1st stand alone
And all his record lies unfurled,
Then, shall his service here be known
BY what he gave unto the world.

FULL. ESTIMATES OF COMMISSION
 ARE SUBMITTED

The full Alaska Roac Commission estimates asking for an appropria- tion of $955, ,000 have been prepar- ed for resubmitting to the special session of Congress when it convenes on April II, according to state ment made today by Col. James G.. Steeee, President of the Commission. Col. Steese stated that he had been so advised by the War Department.
 While it is not improbable that these estimates will be cut some, the least we hope to get is the $425,0 approved by the last Con gross and there is a chance that we will get even more, said Col. Steese. Although there will be many new members in the next Congress, especially in the House of Representatives, which means new faces on the committees, the leaders on both the Army and Ap- propriations Committees in both the House and Senate, including Repre- sentatives Anthony, Kahn, Slemp and Sisson and Senators Wadsworth, Warren, Frelinghuysen and others who are familiar with the situation will remain and will accord us every considera tion," he stated. It will be at least month and possible longer time, according to Col Steese before any line can be had on the probable amount to be ap 1 Nv hn urn ( it will be several weeks after il t7e eets before the measure will begin : to assume it's final form.
 Gotwals Returns.
 Col. J. c. Gotwals, who has beer ibsent several weks in the Interior | looking over winter trails and pro posed routes for new roads, will ar rive here this evening on the steam CT Admiral Watson, according tt Col. Steese. The latter plans to make a trip into the Interior ir the near future, leaving, he stated l if possible, on the North western about April 6, going to Fairbanks 1 by the way of Seward, Anchorage and Broad Pass. He desires to ob- serve trail conditions prior to the Spring breakup and go over the roads and trails in the immediate vicinity of Fairbanks, and, if time permits, will probably go into the Tolovana country.
 Col. Steese expects to conclude his observations in the Interior about the middle of May and come back to the coast, remaining sev- eral days in the vicinity Of Anchor age and the railroad district. He will return here late in May.
 Compressors Received.
 Air compressors for the Commits sion's work this season were ship ped on the last sailing of the Cor 6ova, one for Seward and another for Valdez. according to Col Steese. The one going to Valdez will be used in connection with rock work on the high line route above Key stone Canyon on the Richardson Highway near Valdez.

PROPER SIZE OF CONTAINERS
Dissatisfaction Caused by Use of Re-
ceptacIes Not Sufficiently
Strong Enough.

Much dissatisfaction with direct
marketing has been caused by using
containers that were not sufficiently
strong. That is especially true when
containers are used more than once,
says the United States Department Of
Agriculture. Shipping containers
should be light in weight but sufficient
ly durable TO carry the produce
safely.
The proper size of a cOntainer de-
ponds upon the desires of the custom
ers. Most persons wish to obtain
small quantities of each product at
time. Containers should be just large
enough for the produce shipped. If
the carton is too large or too small.
both the produce and the container
are likely TO be damaged, for the pro-
duce will not be kept in place, and the
container will be crushed.
The larger the quantity of produce
shipped in one parcel the lower will
be the cost per pound for transporta-
ton, and the lower the containcr cost
per pound.

Corn Alone Is Very Poor Feed for

E. F. Ferrin, in charge of swine pro-

Mimi, believes that good judgment in
the care and handling of brood sows
during the winter is as necessary as
good feed in making a success with the
pig crop.
The cheapest grain for brood
sows," he says, ''is corn. but this feed
alone is a very poor one for pregnant
sows or gifts. Corn lacks in protein
and mineral matter. each of which is
essential If strong pigs are to be pro

fairly well, and ration of two-thirds
corn and one-third oats is reasonably

with corn is meat meal or tankage. the

In order to know what progress is

farming are producing the greatest
profits. 1t is necessary for the farmer
TO keep a system OF accounts, say

The Keeping OF accounts need not

necessary to have an elaborate system.
TWO Kinds Advisable.
Farm records may be roughly di-
vided into two heads-recOrds of hap
peningS and records Of money trans
actions. The former proves useful
when memory fails. Among the hap
penings that should be recorded are
the dates when animals are bred, men
pasture season begins and ends, first
and last frosts occur. incubators are
set, spring work begins and fall work
ends, seed time and harvest occur. etc.
Such notes as these, when systematic

The most important use many farm
ers make of the records of cash re

checking up bills when sent in to see
whether all payments have been duly
credited. While this alone is only a
small part of the value which can be
