NOTES FROM YOUR EXTENSION SERVICE

First Red Dane stock on a pri- vate farm in the Panama Valley are the calves owned by Bob Johnson of the Maranatha Home on the Steel Creek road.
 Johnson bought the calves with the help of Richard Blue, Exten- sion Service agricultural agent in Palmer. During vacation trip in the Matanuska Valley, Johnson stopped by the Extension office to discuss the possibility of his getting calf.
 Shortly after his visit, Blue found a heifer from Red Dane bull and a Holstein COW on the Vern Williams farm near Palmer and had it shipped to Johnson. This month Blue found another Red Dane calf for Johnson.
 We certainly appreciate MT. Blues help", Johnson said. "We wanted Red Dane stock, but didn't know where to get it.''
 The Red Dane cross produces a dual purpose animal that has high milk producing qualities as well as higher meat quality than pure Holstein. The strain also carries hardness that is not al- ways true in the Holstein breed. Potatoes are one of the food buys for December, Marylou Rideout district home demon stration agent said.
 Both in Alaska and the states favorable growing conditions have resulted in bumper crops of good quality potatoes. Thrifty homemakers may well include more potatoes in family meals.
 Potatoes are a cheap energy food, but they have more to of fer than calories. When eaten daily potatoes can give as much as a fourth of your vitamin C quota plus B-vitamins, iron and other important minerals. One medium sized potato has about 100 calories-no more than an apple or a banana.
 When buying potatoes look for those that are firm and clean, have shallow eyes and no cuts, cracks or decay. Keep potatoes cool but not cold, if you buy in quantity, and keep in a dark place. Good quality late potatoes should keep at least a couple of weeks in a bag or bin in the kit chen.
 For tips about potato cookery and recipes using Alaskan pota- toes, see the Extension Service bulletin, "Favorite Recipes for Potatoes" The bulletin is avail able in your local Extension Ser vice office, in Palmer.
 Try this recipe: Oven Fried Po- tatoes: Cut 6 potatoes as for French fries, Rinse in cold water, Drain and wipe dry. Dip in cooking oil or melted fat Ar range potatoes without overlap ping on a greased pan.
 Bake in hot oven 4500 to 500', for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and salt. Yield 6 servings.

one of the five groups, said in a
statement:
"As it is now set up, the con-
ference will be nothing but a
noisy and gaudy pep rally to put
more steam into the drive to loot
our remaining publicly owned
natural resources from the pub
lie domain"
Ask Month Delay.
The five groups asked that the
conference, scheduled to begin
here December 2, be postponed
six months "in order to achieve
balanced representation" Re
