Journal Editor
Renninisces
in Year 1875

In the February, 1850, issue,
of Farm Journal, Wheeler Nc
Millen, editor-in-chief wrote
his "reminiscences in the
year 1875 in an article entitled
"All of U.s."
The article follows:
Here all of us are; facing the
last February of the first half
of the twentieth century. A few
days after you receive this is
sue of Farm Journal I shall be
observing another birthday.
Since I was born in the nine
teenth century, before another
twenty-five years roll by, I may
be ould enough to write remin-
iScenceS. So this month let me
be old and cantankerous and
pesSimistic, and imagine that I
am already Is years older.
Would I, perhaps, be writing
notes like these?
February, 1875: l can remem-
Der clearly how, back in 1850,
nearly every family had an au-
tomobile. People were putting
television sets in their homes.
New houses were being built by
individual families. No one used
ration coupons for anything,
although some had been used
during the second World war
and people knew what they
were. All meat and grocery
stores were then owned and
operated by nrivate individuals
and companies, who competed
with each other on price and
quality.
March, 1875: My neighbor
was arrested today and they
say he will be sent to jail for
two years. His sow raised a lit
ter of nine pigs, but he report
ed only eight to the Meat Ad-
mi~niStration. He had managed
to hide the other one from the
farm inspectors, but some one
found it out when he butchered
the pig. He had hoped to give
his four youngsters a little
homegrown meat. The Meat
Administration says that not
nearly enough meat can be pro-
duced or imported, and that the
ration must be reduced to a
half-pound per week.
April, 1875: Our hens, encour-
aged by spring, laid an extra
egg today. It would be nice to
have two for breakfast again
some morning, but it has be-
come too dangerous to try to
dodge the law. Besides, for
many years now one egg a week
has been the allowance, and we
have got used to getting along.
We never appreciated our good
fortune when it was possible
to have two eggs, and bacon,
too, every morning for break
fast, and even cream for our
coffee. I remember how sorry I
felt for the English, back in
1949, when they had only one
egg a week.
May, 1875: I went down to
the Lumber Administration to-
day to apply for three two-by-
fourS to brace up the barn. Had
to fill out three sets of applica-
ton blanks, six copies of each,
and draw a diagram to show
just where the pieces would be
used.
June, 1875: This morning I
stood in line until noon before
the Health Administration Of
fices. Wanted to get the tooth
pulled that has kept me awake
most of three nights. 1 couldn't
get in to see the clerk. Long
ago, before we had this "free"

come tax depletion allowance
on oil and gas operations would
curtail and perhaps destroy OPP
portunity for new oil develop
ments in Montana, according to
Rep. Wesley A.. DEWart.
D'Ewart described new oil
developments and exploratory
work in Eastern Montana in a
statement to the House Ways
and Means committee, and
stated that the present deple-
ton allowance makes it possible
to attract risk capital into oil
prospecting.
He opposed the proposal by
Secretary of Treasury Snyder
to reduce the depletion allow
ance and restrict it in other
manners.

"A THUMBNAIL SKETCH OF A
 CUMmUNIT1 HOSPITAL
By Mrs. M. .. Johnson

1t took the fIu epidemic Of the First World War to awaken the people of Nrangell to the need oI a hospital. Records show that an attempt to establish one haa been made many years earlier, and local doctors had occasionally provided limited hospital facilities, but when the flu struck and took sev- era lives, only home care was available. Persons who were not stricken ministered to those WHO were ill and the doctor fought the menace with the meager supplies that he could obtain while ues- perate war was raging. Only one registered nurse was located here and she became a flu victim anu later left town.
 A hospital at that time might have commanded the necessary remedies. To see the doctor tired and despairing because he lacked the medicine he needed to success fully fight the epidemic was some thing to remember. The need of a hospital was not forgotten but how to get one was the problem posed and the years went by.
 Then new hospital was built in Ketchikan where Peter Trimble Rowe, Episcopal Bishop of Alaska, had maintained a small institution for many years. Patients now went to the new and more modern hos Dital and the older institution had to close. An opportunity had pre- scented itself to interested Wrangell people and the good bishop who had ministered to both body and soul in the territory for many years gave to Wrangell equipment from Ketchikan and the promise of fi- which the town of Wrangell se- cured fine site. Citizens of Wran- gell, chosen to be in charge of the construction period and to form the first hospital board, were the late Charles Benjamin, chairman; Harry Gartley, Arnt Sorset, J. c. Grant, A. R. Gurr, and Leo Mccormack. Mrs. Olive Mclaughlin, later Mrs J. c. Johnson, was secretary and MT. Gurr, treasurer,
 Twenty-Five years ago the Wran- gell General Hospital was opened. Bishop Rowe had been here earlier for the laying of the cornerstone CHURCH CARRIES INSURANCE
 The National Council of the Episcopal Church carries insurance on the hospital The Woman's Aux Hilary of the Episcopal Church has provided linens, bed garments and supplies many times during the years. saving hundreds of dollars.
