CONSERVATION
 NOTES
By LEW HANKS

I had talk with MT. Onkka of the Alaska Road Commission the other day. He stated that the Road Commission had good re- suits from listing or ridging snow to prevent blowing. Last winter they ridged snow in several fields. Two places I know aboutwere on Bugge's hill and the open field north of the Fair Grounds. The snow lay in place on those fields until the wind evaporated it.
 Maybe we won't get that much wind this winter. It could also be that the snow that lies on the fields will be all the moisture we get to start crops.
 The conservation bouquet of the week goes to Leonard Moi fit. He used cultipacker to roll down the snow on a potato field that is subject to blowing. He did a fine job. want to con- graduate him on being the first farmer in the Valley I have ob- served putting this practice into effect We have hopes that the ridging and packing effect of rolling this field will do a lot to- ward maintaining the snow cover.
 Clarence Hoffman has used an A frame to ridge up the snow. We will have a good comparison on the two systems next spring.
 When planning those wind breaks to prevent snow and soil from blowing, how about starting that first Windbreak about 100 feet back from the road. Take out the fence along the road and the Road Commission will take out the brush Then nothing

would make the Road Commis- sion more happy than to have you farm right up to the road ditch. They spent $30,000 main taining roads last winter.
 MT. Onkka says that if the right-of-way lines could be kept clear of brush they could cut their snow blowing costs in half. That's a lot of tax dollars that could be saved for better pur- poses. Temporary electric fences could be used next to the road when those fields are used for pasture. That's a good way to get the use of some extra farm land, as we'll as help keep your roads open. Think it over.

children catch most of the soft
shell crabs, but they do.
Seems that when it gets rainy
and muddy-as it has been re-
cently-the supply of soft shells
fall off. The boys and girls
and their nets are at a loss
when the waters muddy
hence the supply diminishes.
But there are still some down
at the Center Market City

for them.
Delicious little butterfish are
here for pan frying, and Nor

Spot. One of the best fish in
our waters. The butterfish are
coming in from New Jersey.
Medium shrimp are available,
but the jumbo variety that come
from Louisiana have been a bit
scarce. You can buy both the
cooked and "green" shrimp at
our stands at Center Market
City. Also fresh or cooked
crabs.
Fresh tuna and salmon steaks
are items you might try soon.
They're both delicious.
The bluefish that usually
come from Florida are now ar
irving from New Jersey. Seems
the New Jersey fishermen have
