school.

words of praise for the Cody young
people who are down here. They
are working their way through and
doing good work in school, too.

LONG LETTER RECEIVED
MARQUIS in ALASKA
Busy and Happy in their New Home
i'm Nenana, Center of Alaska

The Rev. and Mrs. R.. R. Marquis,
who went from Cody to Nenana,
Alaska, where MI. Marquist was
given quite an important appoint
ment, have sent out a very lengthy
and interesting missionary letter.
which if space permitted The Herald
would have printed in full.
Geographically. Nenana, is To-
Gated in about the center of Alaska.
1t is reached by a water trip to
Seward, and then All miles over
the Alaskan government railroad
to Nenana, where the rails and
water meets. Here the big river
steamers connect with the rails, and
take freight destined for Nome and
upper Yukon points. The Marquis
family state that since they have
been in the northland they have
seen practically all modes of travel.
from airplane to the dog sled and
"old timer" method. with pack
strapped to back.
They state hat Nenana at N time
was quite a live town, during the
building of a huge bridge across the
Tanana river, but that now there
are but a few hundred people living
there. However, in the spring of
tho many people come in. and
If tho .ooso, IS late, stop there lev
eral weeks waiting for me r'si
to go out, and the boats to arrive
from points down the river.
Rev. and Mrs. Marquis state that
they have d nice church and manse
to reside in, and are very comfort
ably located. The manse is modern.
with furnace and electric lights, and
despite belief to the contrary, a
home in the northland is very pleas
ant. Rev. Marquis has a club room
in his basement and does much
work with his boys Sunday school
class. The weather since October
has been real winter. the mercury
going down at times to so degrees
below zero. but the winter time is
a time of much work. At that time,
with the snow and ice, much freight
ing is done which cannot be sue
cessfully handled during any other
season. Trips can be made over
places which would require detours
during other seasons, and for this
reason the winter time is the bus
lest season of the Alaskan year.
Rev. Marquis states that the
Christmas spirit is keen in Nenana
and much ado is made over this
holiday. The old timers, bachelors
and single men, seem to get much
enjoyment out of the occasion, and
contribute literally to making it a
joyous time.
Rev. Marquis will be called east
this year to make missionary lee
lures, and plans to visit Cody en-
route.

indications of a large beet acreage were not lackino
De1ore the beet price controversy reached its height
On the part OF the great majority of growers no desire
was manifested toward discarding established rotations
including the beet crop.
In line with this attitude most farmers are taking
advantage OF every favorable day to prepare for early
planting such ground as they originally intended to put
INTO oeets. This policy is advisable regardless whether
beets or another crop is planted.
Experience has amply established the reward in
higher beet yields of the early planting practice. other
conditions being equal. To be ready to plant at the right
time involves having the soil properly fitted in advance.
Some seasons conditions are unfavorable for early
work in the spring. This year, however, weather and
soil conditions are leading to an unusual amount of early
held preparations for all crops. With moisture still
greatly to be desired in many localities every incentive
points to the quickest and most thorough preparation
of the ground in order that such moisture as may fall
will better be conserved for the termination of seed.
A higher beet yield of two tons or more
per acre attributable to planting by April Is
as compared with after May Is has repeatedly
been indicated by experimental tests and by
surveys of large commercial, acreages.
The aspect of weather and soil conditions favorinp
early preparations for planting beet seed has doubtless
contributed to the anxiety of growers for a solution of
the price controversy. This latter is no occasion, how
ever, for delaying field work.

Borah Twits Senate
Republicans On
Loyalty
What is parry loyalty?

What is party loyalty?
This question was turned into
a fishhook to irk senatorial dig
nifty today as a result of the
Senate's action in sustaining the
postal pay veto. 1t was asked
by Senator Borah, (Rep.) of
Idaho, who challenged the Greg
ularity" Of some twenty Repub-
lican Senators who voted against
the President.
"Four so-called insurgents
were ousted from the party be-
cause they opposed the Presi-
dent in the recent election" said
Borah. 'tNow 1t appears party
loyalty means to support the
President in q campaign and
then to oppose his issues after
the campaign is closed. What,
is party loyalty? 2"
The question remained un-
answered, although such Repub-
lican leaders as Senator'S Wads-
worth Of New York, Edge Of
New Jersey, Reed Of Pennsyl-
vania and McNary Of Oregon,
opposed the veto.
