ANS Hospital Has NOSite

The proposed Alaska Native Service hospital is homeless again. A proffered 20-acre site in Palmer recently was rejected in favor of tWo-block location near the water tower in Anchor age. However ANS officials have reconsidered and have an nounced that the hospital may not" be located on that site. Un- official word has it that a loca- tion near Goose Lake now is un- der consideration.
 No announcement has been made as to whether the Palmer site again may be considered. Don Foster, ANS chief, has de- clined to comment on the matter. The reason for the switch in plans, with reference to the Wa ter tower site, has not been made public.

Valley Goes Begging for 200 Years

There comes a time in every Valley farmers life-when the crops don't grow, when the cut worms come, when an early freeze nips the life from a win ter's cash income-that he won- ders what he ever saw in the Matanuska Valley. And he has good cause to wonder, for it took the white man nearly 200 years to come to the belief that this Valley might be good for some thing.
 Apparently Captain Cook was the first white man to discover the Matanuska Valley. He sailed up the channels of the Inlet that bears his name and travelled on for a glimpse of the Valley in 1778. Later Captain Vancouver verified the discovery with a subsequent historical recording. Right there the white men let the matter rest until the early 19OOs.

 but he didn't larry long in the
 early days of Alaska's history.
 Historians feel the reason prob ably was due partly to the Val ley's remoteness and also partly due to fur traders interest in richer fur-bearing areas farther south and east. Fur competition was keen in the earlier years of Alaskan history, Russian traders who might have fostered some development in the Valley could not exist so far from their coast built bases. However they effec- lively blocked the way for any other nations settlement here.

Record Buyer Phyllis Stage is in

unperturbed in her office in q local
department store, while the music
of Vaughn Monroe. Spike Jones and
Eugene Ormandy whirls in the rec
ord shop outside, and her own ma
chine plays Cesar Franck or bebop.
She also finds time to give inter-
esting asides on the record business
to visiting reporters.

usually tell which serious composer
will be one OF his favorites," Miss
Stagg declared. "Stan Kenton fans

sky speaks their language. To q
lesser degree, Hindemith appeals to
them, too. You can find q riff in
Stravinsky's "Petrouchka" and put
1t beside a bebop riff, and they are
almost exactly alike"
Dixieland lovers, on the other
hand, are more apt to be interested
in the music of Dvorak and other
composers Of the classical period.
Record fans who like Charlie
Shaver's trumpet, Miss Stagg
pointed out, will probably enjoy
Haydn's Trumpet Concerto"
Assistant Sidney Levenson, in
charge of the pops division, and a
musician himself, remarked on the
shift in swing. Swing is being
subdued," Mr.. Levenson declared.
"A lot Of mutes are being used, and
the beat Is finer" Bands, he added
are cutting down on trumpets and
concentrating on tenor saxes and
trombones. There's a tendency, too
to Use unusual instruments. For
example, you'll hear the celesta in
Elliot Lawrence's work.
Mr.. Lawrence, incidentally, is de-
clared by these record sellers to be
high on the popularity poll. Claude
Thornhill, too, is coming into his
own, and Eddy Howard's star is
rising. Eyes are turning to the less
dynamic music that hotel orches-
traS turn out.
For those who like rhumba, and
fast rhumba at that, Jungle Fan
tasy" is not to be overlooked. Moro
Morales band plays, and brother
Esy, a fiutist, is starred. The brass
In this record is subdued, too, with

has scored is Enric Madriguera's

the spotlight in much the same way
as Near You" came to fame. "Jun-
gle Rhumba" was used as the flip
over for the hit "Ballerina." The

13-year-old American girl In an
English magazine.
"Lipstick at 1871" we exclaimed,
"and nail polish, too! Think of
having your own radio by your
bed!"
How silly, we thought, to have
so many photographs of "cinema"
stars around her bed. But how
wonderful it seemed to have q
closet full of dresses, and we mar
veled at the thought of wearing
something different every day! The
thought of ice cream and milk
shakes at the corner drugstore
made us lick our lips with envy.
Then there was a strange idea we
had that all American girls married
at II and got divorce few years
later.
AS far as I can make out, your
impression of us is exactly the oppo-
site. You think of us as dull and
drab, with very strict schools, very
little freedom and no parties or fun.
We certainly don't wear lipstick or
nail polish until at least Is and we
don't think about boys half as much
as you seem to. Then there IS the
question of dates. Neither boys nor
girls take these seriously until they
are about Is. We just don't think
about it. The girls certainly know
many boys and 60 to dances and
parties with them and out to the
movies, just as you do. The best
way I can describe it is that they
are friends who are boys rather
than boy friends.
We 60 to the movies as you do
and have stars whom we like or dis
like. American movies are very
popular, although people do not like
your actors as much as your act

with children, but the trouble is that
they all get the impression that the
West Is really like that all the time.
During the war my family moved
about q lot, so ! have been to nearly
every sort of English school. AS
there are here, there are day schools,
boarding schools and day and board
ing combined schools. On the whole
the schools are a little stricter, but
not to the extremes which so many
American girls imagine. There are
no grades; the work goes In forms,
but practically every school has diff
ferent names for the forms. For ex-
Fample, one school might start at
the fourth form for children Of IL,
while another school starts at form
2-B for children of the same age.
However, in all English schools the
sixth form is the last one and holds
girls OF is and II.
Instead Of taking four or five SUBJ
jects at time, as you do, we take
10 or II. This, Of course, seems in
credible to you. but it all fits in all
right in England. In fact, we have
less work than you do, as practically
no school has work Of any kind after
$50. School holidays last for eight
weeks in the summer, four weeks at
Christmas and four weeks at Easter.
At Is or is, boys and girls alike take
an examination called school cer-
tificate, which roughly equals your
graduation, except that we usually
stay a year at school after taking 1t
to specialize in a chosen subject.
Unlike you again, the majority Of
girls do not go to college. Only very
bright and studious girls who wish
to be teachers or doctors or some
such occupation go to our colleges.
Instead, many of them go to a
finishing school," either abroad or
at home, where they learn Ian
guages, household duties, cooking
and subjects In which they have lost
interest.
Games play an active part In
school life, but vary somewhat from
American games. In the winter
some schools play hockey and some
lacrosse. In the summer tennis,
cricket, swimming and FOUNDERS
a form of softball-are the most
popular sports.
Now, another thing which goes
against the Americans idea. In the
evenings at boarding school every
one has fun. Sometimes we dance
or play games or get up entertain
ments. Once week there are
movies and sometimes not-so-good
lectures. The bedrooms in differ
ent schools vary from 10 to 2. There
are secret visits to the bedrooms,
wild pillow fights and whispering for
all hours after lights out, until the
stealthy tread of the matron is
heard on her nightly rounds. Then
there are wild leaps for beds and
hastily suppressed giggles.

Poultry Department
Less Chickens in Pot
This Year Than Last

THERE WILL BE less chicken
in every potf this year than last ac-
cording to national and state fig
ures, reports Boyd A. Ivory, poultry
specialist of the Wyoming agricul-
tural extension service.
Preliminary estimates reveal Is
percent national decrease compared
to last year, and II percent decrease
from the 1937-46 average, he points
out. However, Wyoming is among
the western states having the small
est decrease of 4 percent, Ivory adds.
There will be smaller laying
flock on Jan. l, 1949, than on Jan.
l of this year, reports indicate. U. S.
department of agriculture figures
show the number of layers on hand
June l was percent less than year
ago, and the smallest June hold
ing since 1941.
Explaining the trend, Ivory said
that on Feb. 1, farmers reported
their intentions to buy 20 percent
fewer baby chicks because of very
unfavorable egg-feed and chick-feed
price relationships. In the ensuing
months, reports showed that the egg
feed ration grew less favorable-but
the chicken feed ration grew more
favorable. Therefore, the farmers
bought more chicks than they in
tended last Feb. 1.
The picture throughout the nation,
including Wyoming, showed that
farmers acquired 88 percent of their
young chicken holdings from hatch
cries, compared with SO percent last
year-and 81, IS, 83, 30, 80, rs, and
u percent for the years 1946-40, re-
spectively.

Management Practices
Insure Egg Profits

MORE AND CHEAPER poultry
feed will be available this winter
but operators will still need to do a
good job of managing flocks to take
full advantage of more favorable
feed ratios.
Here are few tips that will prove
good insurance for producing eggs at
satisfactory returns this winter:
1. Keep 100 percent pullet flock
and Gull immature pullets and the
old hens as they 60 out of produc-
ton.
g. Don't crowd the pullets; pro-
vide 31z to square feet of floor
space per bird.
8. House pullets separately if old
birds are kept over.
A. Provide 20 nests for each 100
birds.
5. Provide IS feet of roosting space
per 100 birds.
6. Provide one-gallon water
founts per 100 birds.
z. Provide 20 feet of mash hopper
space per 100 birds.
8. Ventilate the laying and roost-
ing quarters to keep the house dry.
8. Provide roosting pits and con-
troll lice and mites.
10. Layers require $50 TO 400
pounds of mash per 100 birds per
month. Avoid making abrupt
changes in feeding program as it
often upsets the flock and throws
it out of production.

cents a hundred pounds in most
states from September TO March.
High yields of homegrown and COM
mercial potato crops have kept mari
kets loaded up recently, although
about half of the carlot shipments
have been government purchases.
Storing by growers and continued
government buying during the fall
to remove the surplus will gradually
reduce the pressure.
