LET'S keep THE
MACHINE IN GEAR
In these days of mechanical farm

~4E~ In these days OF mechanical farm
ing practically everyone is famil-
f. NJ Simpson lar with the gears that make the
wheels of tractors, combines, and other equip
ment go round. We know that should one gear
be removed or get out of iine-or even if a sin
gle gear tooth is broken-the machine won't
run smoothly, if at all.
1t is much the same with the livestock and
meat industry The three main gears are the
producer, the professor and the retailer. When
any one of these driving gears" gets out of
order, then the entire industry suffers. Coordi-
nation of their interests can contribute greatly
to the smooth functioning of the industry as a
whole. None of us gains by insisting too vigor-
ously that part of the industry is the only
one which has problems that matter. We gain
more by trying to look at our particular prob
lens as they affect all of U.S. In other words,
whatever hurts or helps the producer hurts or
helps the professor and the retailer also.
The livestock and meat industry is an i'm
portant part of the national economic struc-
ture. We at Swift & Company believe that we
can contribute most to the welfare of America
and ourselves-by promoting harmonious
practical working relations between producers,
professors and retailers.

Progress Made in
"Test.Tube'' Breeding
by j. w. Bartlett
Professor of Animal Husbdndry
New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station

Artificial dissemination of live j. W. Bartlett
stock is expanding rapidly The
first breeding cooperative using this method
started in New Jersey in 1888 Today there
100 such units throughout the nation Evidence of
the success of "test-tube breeding may be found
in the records of the New Jersey unit. Artifcally
sired daughters produced 14co more butterfat and
go more milk than their dams Another survey
shows the average yield of $50 artificial frstcalf
heifers was S,125 lbs of milk and 1924 lbs of fat
in 305 days. This is 22.216 more milk and 249o
more fat than the average of all cows of all ages
in the u. S. A.
Such records as these common, and indicate
that artificial dissemination is good practice because
it pays off in improved herds, lowered costs and
higher production. Five points to remember
l. Good characteristics of proved sres become
available to large groups of livestock owners.
2. Eliminating the herd bull makes it possible to
keep an extra female which should pay breeding
costs for the herd. :. 3. Certain diseases which
might be spread by the sire are lessened 4. Ex-
animation of semen daily fertility of the
sire. e. 5. Participation in planned breeding
program results in a community interest in better
livestock.

on per capita average just about twice as much as Oklahomans pay in taxes the same basis)
 Question: Who gave the Congressman the erron- eous information concerning Aaskas lack of SaXesf}
 9 Another thing the Congressmen criticized AL askans for was that the canned salmon industry takes $5oOooO0o a year out of Alaska in canned salmon and leaves only $lOOOOoo in taxes behind
 Comment If this is a sample of Congressional arithmetic anything is possible The S5OOooooO nap pens to be the gross proceeds of the operation net profit of 10 percent would be high and that would be s5o000O0 Taxes amounting to Sl,OO0,0OO would be 20 percent of the net profits which the Territory receives and that isn't small Alaskans employed by the canned salmon industry-those who bring in the fish and others who supply items such as wire netting for traps and piling also keep part o the $50 900 gross in AlaskaD
 (Question same as before who supplied the information?)
 g. Another thing the Congressmen, some of them found Alaskans too ignorant to govern them selves.
 Comment Rep Homer Angel of oregon has the best for that He says that we are forcing the Japs to set up completely democratic govern ment and he believes "Alaskans just capabale as the Japs" In reality Alaskans ruled under colonial form of government by carpet baggng bureau crats who are sent in from the "Od Country on political pay-off deals and they're mighty hard to 
 dislodge they arrve)
 Question same as Nos. and D.
 We suspect that the hidden informant-that dispenser of information about Alaska to visiting Congressmen-m might possibly be the person who has long blasted away with the charge that Aiaskans don't pay enough taxes; that the canned salmon industry doesn't pay enough taxes and is bleeding the Territory that Alaskans really want an income tax even though the Legislature has turned it down three times and the only must be that we re too ignorant to know what we want.
 This information crops up every two years n the Governors message to the Legislature
 It is interesting to note that the Governor ana those dependent upon his influence for easy gov ernnent jobs have been the escorts of the Congressman and so far have been ushers for MT Arnold.
 We wonder if MT Arnold would consider talking to such men as Senator Doc Walker of Ketchikan to those making up the half of the membership of the Territorial Senate who recently signed petition to President Truman asking for the removal of the present Governor? And will he talk to good many other Alaskans who feel the same way? If he does he will be breaking away from the path established by the visitors before him And he might learn
