Growers and Sellers Must Comply with New Potato Regulations

Revised potato regulations have been completed and mailed to potato growers, storekeepers, and wholesalers, it was announced by the Alaska Department of Agri- culture in their newsletter this week.
 Farmers and wholesalers are most affected by the regulation, James Wilson, Commissioner of Agriculture pointed out. Potato growers can show their interest in the potato improvement pro- gram by careful grading, handl- ing, packaging and labelling of their product. Retailers can help, Wilson said, by buying on grade rather than price; by storing po- tatoes at room temperature, and protecting them from light to pre- vent greening.
 AS consumers, Wilson suggest ed, we all can look for graded potatoes and protest when pota- toes obviously "off-grade" are

sold. Inspections for compliance with the new regulations are be- ginning immediately, he said.
 February has been chosen fon nationwide potato advertising campaign by the National Potato Council. Wilson urged all retail CTS to stock potatoes in several different packs and to advertise them as the economy food". ''We must start now to get "off-grade" potatoes off the counters, Wilson stated.

mai National Monument and a specific appraisal of the request of a number of residents of the Naknek area "to open the areas surrounding Naknek Lake Group to about eight miles back from the lake shores of this group in all directions.
 Delegate Bartlett stated that on several occasions in the past he has declared that he believes the Monument is altogether too large. T believe it to be too large" he informed Secretary Mckay, 'be- cause it is unwieldy and unneces- sary administrative1y. It is a matter of record that this Monu- ment was created because of the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes. Now the Smokes have diminish ed until there are only a few so that the very purpose for which the Monument was established no longer exists. Notwithstanding, for one believe that the beauty of the area and it's other special features warrant a national mon- ument there. But it should be realistic in respect to size and should not deny to the residents of the area land which has no proper place within the Monu- nant "

WASHINGTON NEWSLETTER

Action on nine of Delegate Bartlett's bills is being delayed through failure so fan on the part of the Interior Department to submit reports to the House Committee on Interior and Insu- lar Affairs.
 In expressing hope to Secretary Mckay that action might be taken without further delay, Delegate Bartlett pointed out that seven of the measures were introduced a year ago, one eleven months ago, one eleven months ago and one nine months ago. Most of the measures concerned would allow the sale of land to non-profit or ganizations in the Territory. Other bills would establish pro- cedure for the care of Alaska's mentally ill, authorize the Ter ritory to incur bonded indebted ness and call for review and ac- ton every five years on with drawn and reserved lands in the Territory.
 The territories subcommittee of the House Interior and Insular Affairs Committee has scheduled two of Delegate Bartlett's bills for consideration on February 8 and 9. One would extend until June 30, 1859, the Alaska Public Works program, now due to ex- pire on June 30 of next year. The other bill would allow the Terri tory of Alaska to lease school lands in the Territory for period of 50 years rather than the pres ent 10-year period allowed.
 Five additional Alaska mea- sures sponsored by the Delegate were referred to the appropriate comittees this week following their introduction on the opening day of Congress. One measure would abolish the 80-rod shore space reserve on land claims on shore waters in Alaska, second would extend until June 30, 1855, ahe present waiver allowing the transportation of passengers on Canadian vessels between Haines and other points in Alaska, and between Skagway and other AL @aska ports. In addition, passengers and freight could be carried on Canadian ships between Hyder and points in Alaska and the con- -tinental United States. Present waiver is scheduled to expire on June 30 of this year. A third bill would allow the Baptist Mid-Mis- sions to purchase approximately five acres of land in the Homer area for church site. The other two Bartlett bills are so-called private relief measures, one for Gloria M. Medellin of Ketchikan and the other for August J. Strig- ga of Kodiak.

Q TULAREMIA

Tularemia is a disease of wild a
nimals that is transmissable to man
While it hasn't been a great pro-
blem in this state it continues to be
nuisance
Wild rabbits and other rodents
are usual source of the disease
Handling the infected animal may
provide the germ an entrance to the
body through a break in the skin
Infected fingers may carry the germ
to the eye or to the mouth. Eating
poorly cooked infected rabbit meat
may produce the disease.
In this state. there have been re-
ports of this disease occurring as a
result of other sources, however. The
wood tick and dog tick, both OF
which feed on rodents, are known to
carry this disease to mankind A
person, who was investigating a
magpie nest. apparently was infec-
ted by the contamination brought
by the birds eating of infected ro-
dents. Even the deer fly has been
known to first bite an infected ami
NAL and then bite human. thus
transferring the disease
The onset of this disease is very
The Northwest times. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1947-1955, 1954-03-20

often like an influenza attack. There
is marked fever which subsidies
for day or so, and then rises a
gain. The second rise in tempera-
ture lasts about two weeks
In the area where the germ was
introduced, the kernels or glands
are swollen and tender If the germ
gets into the human body through
the skin of the hand, these kernels
will show up at the elbow joint and
under the arm If the introduction
is in the eye, the glands in the neck
become affected
Hunters farmers. butchers and
campers are most likely to get tula-
remia The housewife who prepares
wild rabbit for eating is, of course,
susceptible Thorough cooking OF
the meat of an infected animal will
kill the germ and thus remove con-
tamination.
The physician has several tests
which can be made to determine If
the human has tularemia Because
this disease may resemble other di-
sease conditions, depending upon
how the germs enter the body, the
doctor may not suspect tularemia
unless he knows about the possibi-
lily.
1t will help him to know if the i'll
person has been handling wild rab-
bits or has recently eaten wild rab-
bit meat He should be told if the
patient has recently been bitten by
tick or a deer fly. The handling
of such material as the maybe S
nest is unusual but an important
point in considering the possible
source of this disease
This information is~mportant be-
cause it is the unusual. Tularemia
exists in the state of Washington
If the right diagnosis is made. the
right remedy is available. Where
rabbits, squirrels and other rodents
are most plentiful, tularemia may
eventually occur
