CONSE:RV NATION
 NOTES
By Lew Hanks

The Coop and the Alaska De- partment of Agriculture are to be congratulated for their work on the Alaska Potato Day. It was a fine program. We saw some new equipment, saw some excellent methods of packaging and heard some good advice.
 One statement that impressed me was that of MT. Osborn of the Quartermasters Department at Fort Richardson. He congratu- lated the people of the Valley on the improvement they have made in grading and packaging their produce. He also stated that Alas kan produce properly handled was inferior to none; in appear ance, taste and food value, it is the best. That comes from man whose opinion really amounts to something. He supervises the menus, feeding and diet of the Army in Alaska.
 We don't hear so much any more of that old line that Alaska produce is of poor quality. You can walk into a store now, pick up an attractively made package of Alaska farm produce and see for yourself that you are getting the best. Knocking Alaska farm produce is the mark of the Chee- chako. He doesn't know any bet ter. We have new, good soils here. By practicing good soil manage ment and using crop rotations | that keep our soil in fine shape, we can feed a lot of people. We can supply fine produce to re- lieve the drain on the crop-worn soils in the States. We raise the best. All we have to do now is market it looking its best-noth- ing to it.

Another fresh snowfall offered ideal skiing conditions this past week end at Little Susitna. Satur- days skiers did a good job ot packing the tow slope and Sun day saw several new skiers out, in addition to the regulars.
 Among the new faces were Caroline cashman. treasurer of the Matanuska Ski club. who has been outside the past two months: Rosie Miller, new club
 member: Bud Mack, club vice

 Fifteen carloads of skiers and spectators were unavoidably held up just few miles short of the lodge and skiing area by a truck stuck in the snow. Following a new fall of snow, it has been suggested that motorists use chains or good snow tires when attempting to reach the skiing area.
