Ladies To The Farm

The plan to enroll 10000 city and town women
for work on the nations farms may be more

many persons believe Women already have proved
themselves able to handle of Jobs which here
tofore had been considered outside the circle of
feminine ability
Members of the fair already have shown that
they can handle farm tractors and other farm ma
chimes; they have proved themselves well adapted to
the dairy industry; they take the places Of men
in many orchardng operations; in the berry patches:
in the truck rows. Even toward the hard work of
threshing and harvesting grains women have dis
played aptitude.
In foreign countries the ladies have come to the
fore in industry and farming while their husbands
have gone into the roles of where greater ply
steal strength is necessity. The women Of Rus

They were greater factor in national production

true, But there is to believe they any

Mobilization of a corps of farm workers from
the nations homes will not in itself answer the oues

THE SCHOOL TAX

Members of the Sixteenth Territorial Legislature
were paying attention to the voice of the people
when they refused to levy any additional Territorial
taxes. Believing that it their duty to tax only
for the purpose of paying the bill the next two
years, they broadened the base of the school tax
and added to the tax on the canning of fish
Now it is the duty OF the people to hold up their
end by paying as soon possible the only tax which
the Territory asks from them-the IS levy to help
the schools of Alaska.
All persons, and women, between the ages
of 81 and So, and who gainfuly employed must
pay the tax. There exemptions such as
women who are unemployed and dependent upon the
income Of their husbands who are employed and pay
ing the tax, members of the armed forces paupers,

The tax applies both to residents and to non
residents who employed in the Territory and is
payable right to the school tax collector on de

of employees and their ages and must pay the tax
by deducting it from salaries

Urges Culling To
Lick Feed Problem

One of the most serious problems
confronting Pine county poultry
raisers at the present time is that of
feed, according to Clyde P. Shum-
way, county agent. With a real
shortage of protein feeds and pros
poets of short crop this year hens
which are not layers must go, he
said. Culling of non-layers now and
continuing through the summer, is
recommended by Miss Cora Cooke,
University Farm poultry specialist.
Letters of information on culling
and some tips on feeding have been
sent this week to all neighborhood
leaders. The leaders have also re-
ceived circulars in full colors, show
ing a simple method of culling and
poultry raisers desiring a copy may
contact them for same.
