PROPER FREEZER
STORAGE DETERMINES
OPERATIONS COSTS

Storing $50 pounds of food for
a year in a freezer costs more
than twice as much per pound
thaa using 900 pounds of food
from the same freezer.
The difference in costs does
not include the price of the food
itslf, Mrs. Lydia Fohn-Hansen of
the Alaska Agricultural Exten-
sion Service said. A breakdown
of freezer operating costs are in
cluded in a new federal bulletin
Home Freezer-Their Selection
and Use" The bulletin is avail
able in Extension Service offices
located in Anchorage, Fairbanks,
Juneau, Homer and Palmer.
The revised bulletin is based
upon U. S. Department of Agri-
culture research results. The con-
tents include comparisons of
chest and upright freezers and
what points to check when shop
ping for a freezer. Guides are
given for the homemaker to de-
eide what size freezer her family
needs. The average family finds
that a freezer with six cubic feet
of space for person is adquate, the
researchers say.

Dear Editor.

L<CdI GQlIOTs
In reading last weeks Front
1ersman | came across the article
IN regard to city garbage haul
ing. Naturally cities have garbage
problems, but to close the dump,
and have it open certain hours is
only going to invite more dump
ing of garbage along the highway.
1 use the word more. because it
as being done all the time.
Just this evening on my way
home from work. | saw a large
bag of trash dumped along the
highway short distance from
Palmer. This trash was not two
feet from the edge of the road.
To me that isn't a very pleasant
sight, and closing the dump to the
public will only be an excuse for
more of this.
In my opinion every one should
have free use of the dump Wfaeth-
er they live within the city limits
or not, as we all pay city sales tax.
