PIONEERS TO RULE
 ICE CARNIVAL SATURDAY

Saturday, March l2, has been set as Pioneer Day for the Carni- val at Fairbanks. The Pioneers will have charge of all special activities for the day, and are all set to show modern Fairbanks how things were handled in the good old days of the camp.

About Agriculture

Poultry growers who are US
ing or plan to use lights in
their poultry houses to better
distribute the production of the
hens, are reminded by Miss H.
E. Cuushman, extension poultry
specialist, that the lights should
not burn all night long. The
hens should have at least 9 or
10 hours of rest, but their day.
light hours can be increased by
using lights in the morning or
evening, or a combination of
both. Miss Cushman adds that
growers planning to install
lights should first write Armin

fication specialist, for lighting
plans.
December is the month to
