Editors note: This is the second of
three articles prepared by John II.
Carter, county farm agent, explain
ing the opportunities Garrett County
dairymen have of improving their
herds through the artificial breeding
program. The first pointed out that
about 200 members have enrolled
more than $4,000 cows in the state
and that service is offered for Hol-
stems, Guernseys, Jerseys, and Ayr
shires. The first article, held over
from last week due to lack of space
also appears in this issue.
The artificial breeding program Of
fers most Garrett County dairymcn
an opportunity to use better bail
than they can afford to own. Most of
the twenty-one sires in the artificial
breeding stud are proved sires or sons
of proved sires.
Among the proved sres in the stud
is the outstanding bull { Valley
Emperor Star. The first five daugh-
tiers of this good Holstein sire aver
aged 16.599 pounds Of milk and Gil
pounds Of fat. These daughters
showed a twenty percent increase
over their dams in both milk and fat
production. That the services Of out

Rural Life Sunday Observed
During May by 4>H Clubs

RURAL LIFE SUNDAY-A day
devoted to accomplishing the many
spiritual values of rural life-is be-
ing observed by All clubs through
out Montana during May. Although
Sunday, May 2, is officially desig-
mated as Rural Life Sunday, All
clubs may observe it on any Sun
day that is convenient for them.
Last year, according to State Club
Leader T. w. Thompson, Rural Life
Sunday was observed by more than
140 clubs in % counties and this
year he anticipates that even more
clubs will take part in special church
services and programs in observance
of the occasion.
The clubs, he said, observe Rural
Life Sunday in a number of differ
ent ways. Several clubs last year
took charge of the entire services at
their churches while other clubs pro-
vided flowers or music for the days
services. Among the unusual
observances of the day were the out
door services held by several clubs.
At the National All club congress
held at Chicago last fall, Montana's
delegation was invited to give a typi-
cal Rural Life Sunday service before
the Chicago Sunday Evening club at
Orchestra hall. Amidst a setting of
Flathead county e%vergreens sent
especially for the occasion, all 80

Paving
 Is Started

Kodiak's biz step toward progress, the paving of the main street, got under way this week, with the digging of the calvert area next to the former conn., missioner's office.
 If all goes according to sched-- ule about 2 OF 3 months from now, Alaska Way will be. a ce- ment street from Mission rd to- Brooklyu Ave
 Before the cement can be poured however, new sewers must be laid, the street graded manholes made and sidewalks moved.
 At last reports, no buildings will have to be moved. as none is inside the curb-line. However, some of them may have 10 be revamped as their entrances may he directly on the curb.
 The culvert has been dug to the middle of the street and will be completed before the other half is done When the actual work oD the street is started. in those blocks for which there is no detour, only ha will be paved at d time
 However from the Mecca to the drug store, there is a detour, and the entire width of the street can be paved at once there
 Ralph Shupp is doing the work op the culvert and Patrick Lynch and Go will pave the street. A total of $50 barrels, or l30 tons of G tmeDt, will be needed for the job.
 The cement was due on the Denali this week but failed to arrive. However the entire street must be regarded, and brought to 8 level of 12 inches below the finished grade. Crushed rock will be beneath the 5 inch thick layer of cement.
 Approximately 12 manholes will be included in the job, and several culverts on side streets will also be constructed. Cur. rently a sewer line is being re- located at the corner of Alaska Way and Brooklyn Ave.
 Any sidewalks taken up ts pave the street will be re-laid m kind, and any new ones will be of concrete. Property owners of course may put in cement ones if they wish.

Easka Line is in favor of this im- provement and recommends that permission be granted to proceed with the work"
 Wbi here, Admiral Zeus'er reported that bis company is now under complete private operation. He said that "al- though the interim plan under which we had been operating prior to July l had been extend d. the Maritime Commission kas not seen fit to again make She provisions of the approved hiil applicable"
 He aided that under the Legislation we would have had untIl March l, 1949 to convert eur operation, but we had to take over unassisted on July l @f this year."
 He said that the company ~has always served all of Alaska and it IS our definite aim to so continue"
 Admiral Zeusler praised the Considerable progress" in Kod : ak since his last visit in I944 snd said that the towns future development appears very bright. Tie potentialities of Kodiak are very large." he added, "and our success in the territory is direct Ey dependent on yours
