LEGION POPP|ES FOR
SALE MAY "a ARRIVE

Memorial peoples to be worn here
on Poppy day, May "a, in honor of
the dead of both World wars, have
been received by Mrs. R. H. Sterrett
of Laurel unit of the American
Legion Auxiliary. The little red
flowers came from Fort Harrison
where they were made by disabled
veterans employed by the Auxiliary.
"The peoples are crepe paper rep
licas of the wild poppies which grow
in France and Belgium where so
many of the battles of both wars
were fought" explained Mrs. Ster-
rett. "They are peoples which grew
between the crosses, row on row. in
the World war l battle cemeteries
and so became the memorial flower
for the war dead. Now they SYM
bolize memory for those who died for
America on land, sea and in the air
in every part of the world.
each flower is made by hand by
a disabled veteran, the paper petals
~carfully attached to the wire stem
and shaped to resemble the blooms
with which nature decorated the
battle field graves. The work gives
the disabled men something interest
ing to do during the long hours of
disqualification and convalescence. 1t
occupies their hands and minds, help
ing them get well. 1t also enables
them to arm money, which builds
their morale and makes things easier
for themselves and families"
The peoples r being unpacked
and counted by the Auxiliary's poppy
committee and made ready for the
volunteer workers who will distribute
them in all parts of the city on
day. No price will be asked
for the little flowers, but everyone
receiving one will be asked to con-
something for the welfare of
he disabled veterans, their families
and the families of the dead. "The
day contribution makes pos
'ible the Legion Auxiliary's extern
'ive rehabilitation and child welfare
Mrs. Sterett said.

Molasses has long been recognized
as an excellent livestock food. Cattle
fed molasses in their ~fattening ra.
tions have provided heavy gains and
have had glossy coats Indicating the
healthful effect of this feed. Lambs
fed molasses in fattening rations at
the Colorado agricultural experiment
station have shown exceptional bloom
and less death loss than where mo-
lasses was not fed.
For a long time these favorable
results secured with molasses were
attributed largely to its sweet taste
and to its carbohydrate content. In
recent years, however, research work
ers have discovered that molasses is
a very good source of the B complex
vitamins as we'll as important min
erals.
1t now seems apparent that these
outstanding results secured by includ-
ing molasses in livestock rations
have been due in large part to tie
vitamins and minerals that it con-
tains.
Formerly cane or "blackstrap"
and beet molasses were quite similar
in their digestible nutrient value,
but more recently the beet molasses,
which is at present available to live
stock feeders in this intermountain
area, has been processed to contain
a concentration of these valuable vi
tamins and amino-nitrogen products
and now provides over six times as
much digestible protein as is found
III cane molasses.
Experimental feeding tests con-
Quoted at several western ~agricultur-
experiment stations have demon
strated the superior quality of this
high protein feeders molasses at
present derived from the sugar beet.
For instance, in one cattle feed
ing experiment conducted by the Col
orado agricultural experiment station
where equal amounts of cane molas-
ses and this product were compared
in a standard fattening ration, the
cattle fattened with high protein
feeders molasses produced greater
gains, showed less shrink to market
and lower cost of grain.
While both groups of cattle brought
the same price per hundredweight
at market, the cattle fed the high
protein molasses showed a higher
dressing percentage and higher car
cass grades in the packing plant.
These experimental results tend to
Indicate that the beneficial results

livestock rations may very probably

content.
During the last war the increased
Industrial demand for molasses had
very definite effect on it's present
ost to livestock feeders.
The present availability of this
Ugh protein product, however, with
is concentration of these essential
nutrients should appeal to those who
re interested in reducing their pres
fattening costs.
In the words of those in charge

When a feed (high protein feed

TERRITORY TO COLLECT FROM VB FOLTA RULES

JUNEAU, Federal Judge Fol ta issued a writ of mandamts last week ordering the Alaska Veterans Board to repay $350, 900 advanced by the Territory.
 The writ provides for two in- stallments of $175,OOO each, with the first payment on January 3l, l948, and the second on April 30, 1948.
 The money was appropriated so the Board could begin maxim : loans to veterans, but the ac:ion to recover the entire amount was started by territorial treasurer Oscar Olson when the Territory'S funds became virtually exhausted.
 Board spokesmen said they ex- pected to appeal the decision.
 The Veterans Commission said that with a backlog of nearly a million dollars in loans and oon- uses to process, funds do not "peI- nit the repayment, especially with new paper mills coming to Alaska and opening up more bus mess opportunities for veterans than ever before.

 Georges hands shook and he was speeches.. The voice was that of Felix Martinez, a buddy whom Vetter himself has listed as dead in his duties as a sergeant in a French forest in August, l944.
 Martinez, a Mt. Vernon, N. Y., resident, assured Vetter he was very much alive even though a hand grenade had exploded in front of him in full sight of his company. He had not returned that night in France, but was res cued by another outfit.

Its Above Nature" Father Turner Said

STOCKPORT, Eng, CP)-The parish priest of St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church said today his parishoners were awed and en- raptured by a crown of 22 yellow roses which he reported still fresh five months after they were placed on a statue of the Virgin Mary.
 The statue, four feet six inches high and of carved orangeWood, is the personal property of the pastor, the Rev. James Turner, DID.
 He said that every year, on the first sunday in May, it was taken to the sanctuary for the tradi- tional croWning ceremony, and that the garlands normally began to Wilt and shed within two weeks.
 This year, 7-year-old Pauline Byrne crowned the statue with roses. The priest said the blooms which were bought from local florist, had not been touched or Watered since then. He said hundreds of devout Catholics were Hooking to the church to see the statue.
 Tt is not for me to say it is a miracle, but it's above nature and beyond nature," Father Fur ner said.

MANY ARRESTS FOR ILLEGAL FISHING MADE BY AIRMEN

ANCHORAGE, In a report made the last of September, a record number of fishermen n southeastern Alaska were tagged for commercial fishing violations this year during the fishing sea- son there, according to Clarence Rhode, Fish and Wildlife pilo., who returned here last week af- ter three weeks patrol in south eastern waters.
 About TO men were charged with violating fishing laws, pilot Rhode said Not only did a poor season force some to try illegal fishing, he said, but also the game commission had more men and equipment on patrol this yea: than ever before.
 Two single-engined SeabeeS were on the job as we'll as the Grumman Blue Goose, piloted by Rhode. The three planes, in addition to several coastal launch es, were kept busy for month watching fishermen, and tagging those who tried to fish during closed periods or in closed waters.

 The deadline for submitting ap- plications for the tests, which will be given in $50 cities throughout the United States, Alaska and Ha- waii, is November 10, l947.
 Male high school seniors and graduates between the ages of l7 and 21 are eligible to take the ap titude tests. They can obtain ap- plication blanks and bulletins ex- blaming the NROTC program from high school principals, col lege deans, professors of naval science in colleges and universi- ties, naval officer procurement. of fices and navy recruiting stations throughout the country.
 The candidates selected will be- gin the fall, 1948, term at one of the 52 colleges and universities in which NROTC units are es:ab- lished. The Navy will pay for their tuition, books and normal college fees, and will provide each student with a $50-a-month living allowance. Candidates may indi- cate their choice of colleges or uni versailles, and subject to quota i'm itations, will be so assigned. 1 Under the program, the candi- dates may take any course leading to a baccalaureate degree pravid- ed they include certain naval sci ence subjects. They also are re- quired to participate in certain drills and cruises, and upo.l grad uation, to accept a commission in the navy or marine corps, if qua,- flied.
