THERE ARE TOO MANY MEN IN ALASKA NEGLECTING RE-
 SPoNSlBiLlTY FAMILY

C.l6 lnIeTlOr dlSLIlcLS competed, the four Mormon elders, who returned
 Saturday from Fairbanks, -contin- uing on to Juneau on the s. s. Yu-
 kon, left the following report as to
 their visit, and what, in their opinion
 is wrong with Alaska and sugges-
 tions for improvement and growth.
 The members of the party included
 Messrs. Heber M. Meeks, James Judd, Alvin Englestead and Lowell
 T. Plowman Their summary follows;
 Returning from the Interior of AL
 aska we are well pleased with the flu
 ture outlook for the Territory There ,. is much to encourage and very little
 to discourage the people. Every coun-
 try has it's difficult problems to solve,
 Alaska has hers. But the people ofI Alaska are not left alone in this mat
 ter The government is extending al helping hand. Will the people accep1 the preoffsred help and cooperate
 with Uncle Sam to develop the re-
 sources of the country? Much depends on how the people answer this ques
 tion.
 "An agricultural college has been established near Fairbanks, the far thest North of it's kind, in the world 1 Tn connection with it a school of mines. Two experiments stations areI operating, one near Fairbanks, theI other in the Matanuska valley. There thl5 government has shown its willing ness to assist in solving the mining annd agricultural problems of the Territory. The progress made in thtese matters depends upon the whole hearted cooperation of the people. The success of experiments made, over a period of years in growing crops, confirm one in the belief that the Matanuska and Tanana valleys will become veritable gardens of Eden yielding in their strength. In these valleys thousands will find happy homes. There will be the hum of in dustry, the church and the school All N the elements to make life joyous and abundant. may be assembled here and .a great progressive commonwealth built up that will eventually take her place in the great sisterhood of States,
 Alaska has suffered from exploi- tation. Men have followed the course of least resistance. Have mined and fished and trapped the fur bearing animals with little regard to the flu ture or permanance of the industry A more conservative course should be followed.
 we find a great dearth of children in Alaska. Family life is one of the great needs. There are too many men in Alaska neglecting the respon- sibility of family life. Home and fam fly are the only sources of permancy and greatness for any country. This has beenn sadly neglected in Alaska. But for this neglect there would be today thousands of young men and women, born and reared in Alaska fighting her battles and solving her problems who would make her the greatest commonwealth she is destin ed to become.

Barnyard Underworld Is
Seen on New u. S. Film

The pests and parasites which men
ace live stock and threaten the well
fare of farm families are exposed in
their sinister roles in the new United
States Department of Agriculture edu-
cational motion picture, 1.-The Barn.
yard Underworld"
The new film, one reel in length,
tells the story of slipshod farmer
and his insanitary barnyard. His live
stock fall victim to the attacks of dis
ease-breeding worms, mites and lice
which infest the sanctuary his care
lessless has provided for them. A
veterinarian orders a thorough raid
upon the haunts of these creatures of
the "barnyard underworld" which
threaten disaster TO the farmer. A
general cleanup, disinfecting and re-
building campaign follows and in the
end the farmer reaps the rewards of
his vigilance. There is also a thread
of romance in the story.
Copies of United States Department
of Agriculture films are available for
loan without charge other than the
cost of transportation, which must be
assumed by the borrowers. Prospec-
tive users of the film should apply
for bookings to the Office of Motion

Use of Larger Power Units
Becoming Quite Popular.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Several of our better farmers are
working 8, 9, 10, and 12-hOrse teams,
driving them with one pair of lines
and actually doing more work than
two, and in some cases three, men
were doing before"
This comment, received by the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
from w. r. Hauser, live stock special
list In South Dakota, is typical of nu-
merous reports pointing out the prac-
teal value of big-team bitches. Dem
onstrations on the use of these large
power units for keeping down the cost
of crop production have become an un-
usually popular live stock extension
project. Twenty-four big-team-hitch
demonstrations in South Dakota last
fall were witnessed by total attend
ance of approximately 1000 farmers.
In Minnesota SO similar demOnstra-
tons were held late last summer in 26
counties, the total attendance being
more than $500. f. w. Peck, direc-
tor of agricultural extension in Mime
sofa, says that several hundred OBJ
servers already have obtained the nee
essary equipment and implements for
using big-team bitches on their farms.
The successful use of big-team
bitches involves the arrangement of

pose of avoiding side draft and for

Agricultural Notes

H-s-O-s-C-s-C-s-C-s-C<>-s'
German millet can be seeded sue
cessfully any time up to the Fourth Of
July.
A legume in the rotation increases
yield and protein content. The extra
margin is profit.
Rust is the enemy of garden tools.
1t not only wears out the tools but in
terferes with efficient work.
Don't fail to clean up and white
wash the barns. The white walls
make the barn seem lighter and larger.
and the work is easier in clean WELL
lighted barn.
In bearing and neglected orchards
where the presence of fire blight or
blister canker is suspected, it is advis-
able to disinfect and paint all wounds
two inches or more in diameter.
A distinct trend among farm power
users which is becoming apparent is
to add small tractor of the so-called
garden size for odd jobs around the
farm.
The use of sprayers has been great
ly extended among potato growers,
following the startling results obtained
by 300 and 400 bushel potato club
members.
Cultivating a field year after year
burns out the humus, and then see
what happens. Every big rain, or the
melting snow of spring, takes away
some of the surface soil.
A good tanning mill, in the hands Of
a careful man, will last more than 20
years. The spare time in winter can
be used to no better advantage than in
cleaning up the seed grain.
In those sections where alfalfa is an
unqualified success, soy-bean hay
should not be looked upon as a crop
for the regular rotation but consid-
cred more as a catch crop to be used
in case of winter killing of the alfalfa.
