mittee of the kennebec Farm Bureau,

Cialist and y. l.. Decring, county
agent leader, met representatives of
the Central Maine fair at Waterville.
Saturday. The two representative
bodies are to work out plans for the
Farm Bureau exhibits at the fair
next fall. The Central Maine fair
association is very anxious for the
Farm Bureau to have exhibitions
there. Last year the kennebec Farm
Bureau won the first premium of
$25, awarded to the county making
the best exhibit.
County Agent Day is receiving re-
ports from orchard owners of the
county who complain that t0eir trees
are being girdled by mice. In most
cases the tree can be saved by bridge
grating. This is one of the subjects
which is being taken up at the graft
ing demonstrations. One man said
that he bought some rabbits and as
soon as the animals became pets they
also became pests in that they .girdled
the trees in the same manner as
do the mice. The bridge grating
process appears to be the most effect.

bark and cutting off the edges above

shows that the mending results are

WINTER soIsT1CE YESTERDAY

That the winter is passing rapid IY is evidenced by the fact that we are already past the shortest day of the year. Yesterday. Dec. 22, at 3:57 a. m, the sun reached it's farthest point south and has already started on it's uphill climb. This event is known as the Winter Soi- stice. from the Latin meaning "to stand" as the sun apparently stands stiu in it's southward motion TOT several days.
 Theoretically, yesterday, Dec. 22, was the shortest day this year, put this can only be proven mathematic- ally, as the 22nd in only two seconds shorter than the 21st. Yesterday the sun rose at 9:5s:47 a. m. and set 2:o0:4s p. m.. and the interval from sunrise to sunset was hours. ss seconds. The height of the sun at noon was 2 deg. min. while the direction at time of rising was 5.

SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATES IN
 LATE GENERAL ELECTION

Upon receipt of election returns from Shungnak this week the last remaining precinct in the Second Division has made it's report and the General Election returns are now complete.
 As the returns first came in from near by voting precincts various conjectures were rife as to the final outcome and not until the last re- turns were received was the repre- sentative race between Mrs. Kttil- sen and Dick Raelson. clearly de- fined.
 Shungnak's vote places Mir. Raei- son in the lead of Mrs. Kittilsen by three votes.
 F. M. Aver is elected to the Long Term Senatorship by a majority of 23 votes: Charles W. Brown IT.. was elected short term Senator by a large vote over E. L. Holt; John A Wilson headed the legislative candidates with Richard Decker a close second. James P. Daly third and Dick Raelson fourth
 Now that the race is over and the successful candidates are receiving the congratulations of their friends the public will have an opportunity to learn whether or not their repre- sentatives were sincere in the ad- vocacy of the various principles enunciated in their campaing plat fcrns. Their records at Juneau will be proof sufficient.
 Apropos of the coming session of the Legislature it has been suggest ed that a more satisfactory record of the legislative proceedings be kept. It is proposed that the met hod employed in the Congress of the U. S.. namely the Congressional Record, be taken as a model. The reason for the suggestion is that if a complete record. patterned as above stated, is kept. the people of Alaska will be able to watch more Closely the attitudes assumed by their representatives. The House and Senate Journals record certain stages of Bills and procedures but fail to completely record that which tfanspires.
