COOPERATION OF
RANCHERS URGED;
AID IS OFFERED
Country Fair Offers Oppor'
tunity to Farmers to Or
ganize for Profit.

If homeStelders N Southeastern
Alaska will cooperate in warehous-
ing and establish a system for sup
living the local market upon which
merchants can rely for stocks, the
future OF the farming industry in
this district is assured, said Ed. M.
Kane, manager of the Southeastern
Alaska Fair Association, in a state
ment issued today. The Fair, which
will be held here September 1929,
will offer ranchers of the district an
opportunity to perfect an organiza-
tion which can handle these things,
Mr. Kane pointed out
In his statement Mr.. Kane said:
'1The growing of foodstuff and
breeding of the different kinds of
livestock supplying milk products,
beef, pork and the numerous by
products that enter so largely into
the manufacture of wearing apparel
and many Of the necessities of every.
day life, plays such an important part
in the economic development and
continued prosperity of the world
that, agriculture has been termed
the basis OF all wealth This state
merit will have to be modified as ap-
plying to Alaska The mineral oil
and timber resources of the Terri
tory are so extensive, that agriculture
regardless of its growth, will always
be a second larry industry.
Possibilities Are Great
+ho of nj
ture in Southeastern Alaska are so
much greater than the average per
son believes possible. that it is sur
prising that this important industry
has not reached a fuller development.
No line of industry is of a more per-
manen- character, or promises great
or and more continued returns on
money and labor invested than does
the farming industry, in its many
branches. Financia. depressions may
cause a large percentage of people
to cconCmiZe on many necessities.
but the consumption Of farm prod
ucts does not fluctuate to any ap-
preciable extent during those finan-
cial flurries And. situated as we
are, several hundred miles from the
ceDters of large accllmulations OF
foodstuff, with several DAYS to one
or two weeks between the arrival
of boats. and high freight rates, To-
cal ranchers have an excellent OPP
portunity to develop ready market
for everything they raise.
'It has been demonstrated that
very good grades Of farm products
can be raised in this district. Sew
eral new varieties CT vegetables are
being grown locally this season for
the first time. Those new articles
are maturing qUiie as satisfactorily

duction many fold.
Organization Is Needed
''But before the local ranchers can
hCpe TO reap a rich harvest from
their labor, it will be necessary for
them to establish warehouses to
store their products, and a system
by which they can supply the local
markets with the different kinds of
vegetables as the demand calls for
them. If an organization can be per-
fected TO carry on this work, the flu
ture OF the farming industry in this
district is assured. 1t will not be d
1res, ion then of finding a market for
he home grown articles. but of
growing sufficient crops to supply
the local markets.
"The farmers of Tanara Valley are
operating under a cooperative stor-
age and marketing system. They
own their warehouse and warm-stor
age, and pool their products. and fill
contracts from common stock. BY
This method they not only supply the
local merchants with a large ma
joTity of the products they buy, but
sell a large volume of products to
different camps on the creeks. The
farmers of Southeastern Alaska can
pattern storage and distributing

tive organization to their financial
advantage. if thcy will grasp their

making arrangements for the dis

uc.s, and the pla aiming of suitable

IS collecting information on co-opcra-
tive farm organizations, to present to
the farmers and gardeners who will
visit the Country Fair. We believe
that it is quite as important to i'm

Volume Is Required
"Thc farming industry of South
eastern Alaska can only be dew eloped
to successful issue by producing a
large volume of products, to be dis
tributcd in every community in
Southeastern Alaska. by one central
organization. Individual
marketing will never prove success
ful to the farmers in outlaying COM
munities. His selling cost will eat

Osd Invitations Recall the Social
Events Of Early Abilene

Ed McC0ll0m has preserved three
old invitations which were issued
years ago, when Abilene was gay
with balls and banquets. one was
an English dinner dance given py
his mother, Mrs. Hattie McColl0m.
June 4. 1883. The menu included
frogs legs. boiled chicken, boiled
ham and loin of beef, English plum
pudding and wine sauce, strawber-
ries and cream, ice cream and two
kinds Of cake. .
Then there was the Christmas ball
given by the Knights OF Pythias
Christmas night, 1883. No menu
was printed on that invitation but
the affair promised to be most elab-
crate IL the list OF names on the
committees might be an indication.
The hall was given at the Bonebrake
opera house and supper was served
at the Henry House. Another anair
was the second annual ball Of the
Culbertson Guards, also at the Bone
brake Opera House. This was un-
doubtedly one Of the events Of the
social season.
No pavements nor automobiles but,
oh boy. them was the days!

LENGTHENING THE Lifeline

Folks like to talk about the good
old days when grandfather was a
boy. They try to make out that
people lived so much longer then than
now. But they didn't The fact
is six years have been added to hui
man life since grandfather came into
the world. In other words, a child
born today has an average chance Of
living six years longer than if it had
been born a century ago.
A great deal of this lengthening
of the span of life is due to modern
plumbing The plumber has cleaned
up the plague spots Of America. He
has made the home sanitary, which
means safe.
When every home in this country
is thoroughly sanitary, six or even
sixteen more years may be added to
life.
In thinking Of plumbing think or
it as increased days upon this good
old earth.

TOOK HOSE TO SALINA
Fireman Left This City Without
ADEQUATE Fire Protection


Adequate Fire Protection
When the fire at Salina got under
way this morning some unknown
person telephoned here to send up
lot Of fire hose. Geo. Yeadon, hre-
man, without consulting the fire
chief or mayor, took ten sections OF
hose and went to Salina, leaving the
city short fireman and with a
shortage of hose that would have
been serious in case Of fire. The
Salina chief was called by phone
this morning and said he had not
ordered the hose and knew, which
was the fact, that Abilene hose could
not be used because Of difference in
couplings. The hose was brought
back to Abilene this afternoon and
there is likely to be rather inter-
esting time over the fireman's leav-
ing the city unprotected without
authority. The commissioners will
make orders that will prevent such 9
happening again.
