Timely Payment Gets Mrs. Larson
 Four for One

Because Mrs. Fred Larson walked into the Valley Frontiers man office just a moment or two before II o'clock last Mon- day morning, her 75-cent sub scription to the paper bought 32 Frontiersman issues instead of eight.
 Mrs. Larson was subscriber No. 100, and was awarded three-month's gift subscription to the paper. Because she'd "never won anything before," Mrs. Larson asked for recount 'just to be sure." The recount verified subscription bookkeep- ing, however, and Mrs. Larson accepted her gift gratefully.
 The final gift offered by the Valley Frontiersman to it's read CTS is a six-month's subscription to subscriber No. 500.

FLO ALICE DINKEL
 AND LYNN SANDVIK EARN TRIP TO CHICAGO

Recognized for their out standing records, three Alaskan youths-including Lynn Sand- vik of Palmer and Flo Alice Dinkel of Wasi1la-will repre- sent All Clubs at the National All Club Congress in Chicago November 30 to December A..
 This is the first year that Alaskan All Clubs of the Ex- tension Service have been rep- resented at the nationl meeting. The awards will cover expenses for the trip from Alaska to Chi cago. The trips were sponsored by the following companies: Spool Cotton Co.,, Allis- -Chal- mers Manufacturing Co.,, Swift and Co.,, Bank of Alaska, First National Bank of Anchorage, Bank of Fairbanks, First Ma tional Bank of Fairbanks, Roy B. Earling, Lomen Commercial Co.,, and the Fairbanks Rotary Club.
 Flo Alice was honored for her achievement in clothing; Lynn for his work in garden ing; and Richard Dangler of Seward for his record in poul- try raising.
 Following is complete re- cording of the work of each of these All Club members whose abilities have brought recogni- tion to Alaska for the first time:
 FLO ALICE'S WORK
 Flo Alice Dinkel, IT, came to Alaska with her parents who were among the first of the group of colonists to arrive in the Matanuska Valley in 1885.
 In 1940, she began her All work and joined the Baking Club for which she worked for three years. During 1941, Flo Alice's mother was in the hos pital and the girl planned and prepared all the meals for sev- en persons. She found time to take part in baking exhibits and captured prizes for her entries at the fair. Then for four years she took part in a garden pro- ject. She started with a 10 by 20-foot plot and built it up till it covered almost an acre. Her produce captured prizes at the Fair and in her fourth year she made $1O0 on her potato crop.
 Knowing that she could grow such fine crops led the young girl to undertake canning as her next project. She carried this on for four years, canning 15O jars the first year, 175 the sec- ond, 200 the third, and 283 the fourth. The first year she car ried II of her best jars to the Fair and captured 10 blue rib- bons and one red one. Her en- try in the Sears Roebuck Can- ming Contest won her red rib- bon the first year and a blue one the second year.
 20 Varieties
 This past year she canned over 20 varieties, including veg etables, fruits, and meat, and exhibited 21 jars at the Fair.
 Clothing, her fourth project, has now won her the trip to Chicago, as the first girl rep- resentative of the All in Alaska to attend the Congress. She has been working on the project for two years. In completing

Chamber To Study Incorporation Plans

Some type of long-range plan for the organization of a formal city government in Palmer was the principal topic of discussion at Wednesdays Chamber of Commerce luncheon.
 w. C. Mau, president, told the members it had been suggested that the organization make a study of types of incorporation, with the view toward future in- corporation of Palmer.
 Both Walter E. Huntley and Dr. R. E. Garret urged the need for some type of organized city government. MT. Huntley told the Chamber that it will be only a matter of time before the territory refuses to carry the entire burden of the Palmer school, as it is now doing.
 Dr. Garret spoke of the need for a larger hospital and inn proved facilities here. He said a greater number of hospital beds, plus more equipment and quarters for hospital nurses, would make for better health program. He added that there could be no hope for added med ical service here, which he said is sorely needed, until addition al hospital facilities are provid- ed.
 The group discussed types of incorporation and requested in- formation on several suggested plans.
 Dr. Garret was asked to ob- tain information on a plan for incorporation as a hospital dis trict.
 =. Upon the motion of Rev. Vic tor Alfsen, it was decided that a committee be appointed to in- yestigate all types of incorpora- tion. When it's study is complete, the information will be present ed to Valley residents. A series of debates, public meetings, round-table discussions, or lec- lures by authorities may be scheduled.
 No committee appointments were made at the Wednesday meeting.
 Rev. w. A. Zeile told of the need for a Community Chest plan in Palmer. He said he felt the plan, which solicits funds for all types of charity in one annual drive, would meet with the whole-hearted approval of residents.
 MT. Huntley disagreed, saying he felt it easier to give a small sum of money to various or ganizations than to give a lump sum to Community Chest.
 The Chamber unanimously endorsed MT. Zeile's plan. The group will begin organization soon. Mir. Mau asked for a vol unteer chairman. No one offered to head the effort, so it was de- cided that the chairman will be appointed at later meeting.
 Dr. E. F. Sims spoke of the urgent need of more labor for work on nurses quarters at the hospital.
 MT. Huntley, William Casler and Leon Esslinger offered to help.

Extension service agronomists
have issued a call to action in plan
ming and planting the fall garden
to provide food for late fall use
and for storing, quick freezing and
canning.
Late gardens should be planted
this month If an adequate fall food
supply is to be assured, agronomists
said. The seed bed should be pre-
pared thoroughly, but not too
deeply.
A 5-10-5 or a 4-12-4 fertilizer
should be applied at the rate OF
Is to 80 pounds per 1000 square feet
Cultivation should be often and
shallow, since damage to roots may
result from deep cultivation.
Such crops as bush snap beans
spinach, Chinese cabbage, late cab
bage, kale, beets, carrots and broc-
coli may be used and many of them
will mature at just the right time
for winter storage. Cabbage and
broccoli will still mature from seed.
Kale is a crop that will serve
the double purpose of supplying
green's during Ghe fall and spring
and still act as an excellent cover
crop for the garden soil during the
fall and winter.

Virginia Farms:
Long Deserted,
Prosper
By Jones Birchfield

There are 1000 rolling acres Of
Virginia farmland in the southern
section of Loudoun County-de-
serted more than 100 years ago by
families who sought more accessible
homes-that are being brought back
into production through wise PLAN
ming and eflcient operation.
This 1,000-acre section, located IN
the Mount Giliad section OF Route
Is south of Leesburg, consists Of two
farms. One farm, Of 750 acres. Is
owned by Mr.. and Mrs. Howard W..
Vesey, and the other, Of 265 acres,
is owned by Col. G. B. Strickler.
The Veseys and Col. Strickler live
in Washington.
More than 100 years ago this land
was only accessible over steep dirt
roads that often became bottomless
mud pits. Early families residing
there wanted better schools and
closer contact with community life.
When the two farms were pur-
chased about four years ago the
land showed the effects OF long
abandonment. The rolling pastures
that today support herds of fat
cattle, and the meadows and crop
fields were almost impenetrable Will
dernesses of brush and scrub
growth. In some of the fields seri-
Gus soil erosion had started.
Alfalfa, Grass Block Erosion.
Col. Stricken, a retired Army en-
gineer, was one Of the first Loudoun
land owners to 60 in for contour
strip crops. Before the Northern
Virginia soil conservation district
was formed he borrowed conser-
vationist from another Virginia
district to lay out the strip con-
tours on his farm. Now, where 1t
Is needed, strips of alfalfa, oats
and grass and clover wind side by
side along his hills.
On the Vesey farm the program
during the last four years has been
to establish permanent pasture IN
every field except those suitable for
rotation crops. These pastures con-
sist of bluegrass, timothy, orchard
grass, lesbedesa and white clover.
Emphasis on Beef Cattle.
Both the Vesey farm and the
Strickler farm are devoted primarily
to the raising Of beef cattle.
j. r. Lintner, Loudoun County
agriculture agent. refers to the
Mount Giliad farms as q demon
stration of what can be accom-
plished on the land where wise
planning is followed by proper in
vestments.
"They thought We couldn't bring
| it. back" he said. Some farmers
told us we would never raise alfalfa
on those fields, but we've got 1T there
today. And 1t is as good as you'll
find anywhere.
(which all goes to show that one
Of the best places to put your money
is in the land-if you do 1t the right
way"
