Maintenance

Maintenance of the spot is
completely voluntary. There are
no regular appropriations to see
that the grass is cut. the graves
unencumbered and the shrubs III
good condition This work is ac-
complished only through contri-
buttons of owners of family plots
(of which there are about 25) and
of interested persons. and the
actual task of seeing the i'm
provements made is done through
love
MIS-. H D Moring has taken it
upon herself for nigh on twenty
years now to see that the Gardens
are pretty. It is she who collects
whatever money comes in from
donations and applies it wherever
She sees fit She has added spirea,
abelia, forsythia crepe myrtle. and
many other shrubs to the scene
and has marked off beds for jon
quils. iris and other flowers in
season

one Of her grandfathers was a
nurseryman, and Mrs. Moring be-
lleyes She must have inherited his
love Of landscape gardening and
the out-of- doors, It is one Of her
pleasures to work in Grove Gar
dens, and in a way she feels, one
Of her duties
Moving the extensive lawns is
one of the biggest money eaters,
She finds. Harold Gary janitor at
Cumberland High School, is her
regular helper with the moving
and they are both particularly
proud of the new rotary mower
they use this year.
Mrs Moring says that visitors
often come to the peaceful spot
to relax and mediate. and she
feels justly proud and glad for
them so to do.

LOCAL STUDS INTO CHIPS MAY CROW

Potato chips from locally grown tubers provide a potential market for Alaskan potato farm CTS, according to Curtis H. Dear born, University of Alaska ex- tension horticulturist.
 Clarence Nelson and Earl Sten- ehjen of the Anchorage Potato Chip Company work with Dear born to test potato varieties. So far the Kennebec potato is the only commercial variety consid- cred satisfactory for shipping purposes. Both Arctic Seeding and Knik varieties are rated low for potato chips, Dearborn said
 It is still too early to be sure the new varieties Q14-3 and 47.3, soon to be name0 answer all the potato chipper's require ments. Nelson and Dearborn test both commercially and new var ieties in the Anchorage firm un- der professional conditions. Each potato variety is tested for browning in hot oil, even color and percentage of raw or partial ly cooked chips remaining when the batch is cooked. Then manu- facturer and scientist score the chips for the most desirable color. texture and flavor. Enough chips of each potato variety are pro- cessed in the Anchorage com pany's plant 10 show the merits of each for commercial use.
