Artillery Halts
 Attempt to Run .Quemoy Blockade
By ROBERT. TUcKMAN

TAIPEI, LR The Chinese Nationalists held back their at- tempt to run the Communist blockade of Quemoy today while the Reds peppered the offshore islands with more artillery fire.
 As the Formosa Strait crisis rounded out a third week, Nation alist military headquarters re- ported Red shore batteries sprayed nearly 300 shells on Que moy and nearby Nationalist is lands.
 Although the smelling was com paratively light, the Nationalists decided against trying again to push supplies to the besieged is land in the face of the Red gum fire which foiled the last two attempts.
 Some Nationalist military men and the Taipei press voiced de- mands for more American action in getting supplies to Quemoy. They wrote off as ineffective the use of U. s. warships to escort the supply ships across the For mosa Strait only to within three miles of Quemoy.
 Associated Press Correspondent James Carey, who was aboard a Nationalist supply ship which was forced under Red smelling Thursday to pull off the beach at Quemoy before unloading, said the grim fact is "that the Con- munist blockade is highly effec- tive and critically serious"

BOISE, Idaho, lR-Mrs. Charles O. Brady built the first fire of the season in the fireplace We'd nesday. The heat melted honey from a bee hive in the chimney. It dripped down and a swarm of angry bees followed. She stopped up the chimney to keep the bees out of the house, but no one quite knew how to get them out of the chimney.

WASHINGTON, R Con- merce Department officials re- ported today economic minded bureaucrats have pioneered a natural gas business in Arctic Alaska and saved the govern ment big money.
 They also are helping them selves keep warm.
 Six years ago, the officials re- lated, the Navy drilled for oil near Point Barrow but found only natural gas. Not needing the gas, the Navy sealed up the wells and departed, leaving behind thousands of dollars worth of pipe that could be hauled out only at prohibitive cost.
 Civilian employees of four fed eral agencies were having their troubles keeping warm in Point Barrow and they looked with longing at the capped gas wells.
 If the gas could be piped into their government offices and hv- ing quarters, they thought, it would save hauling coal 150 miles by dogsled and moving fuel oil by water from Seattle.
 The employees of the Weather Bureau, Public Health Service, Bureau of Standards, and Inter for Department decided to try cutting through red tape.
 In 1856 they got Navy waiver permitting their agencies to use the gas free of charge. The Sen ate Armed Services Committee agreed to this. The Navy also turned over the pipe and other surplus materials lying about the frozen countryside.
 Then the Air Force lent a hand. offering the use of bulldozers and other construction gear at Point Barrow. Finally the four civilian agencies made available about $350,000 to build a 513-mile pipe line and install generating plant to produce electricity from some of the gas.
 Commerce aides said the gas distribution system, which went into operation recently, will save the government $150,0OO to $20O,- 900 year in fuel and hauling charges. At that rate the system will pay for itself in two or three years.

The Hut

.
 Some years ago a sheet of paper was found thumb-t tackled on the wall in store. Notice says that those who wants a loan from gov ernment to repair or build their house write your name here. :" The writer of this newsletter was first to write his name. Years passed but nothing happened. This summer it was learned that the old army camp near here is condemned and abandoned, and is given to the public. Because the need for lumber for housing had bee critical for many years, the public made a good use for the old huts, etc. The government can rest assured that the ''loan problem" is being solved at least for the present.

 SUMMER. 1858
North vs. South


 Independence Day was cele- brated as usual but there were no white people to participate in the games. In the past military men used to play against the Es- kimo. This summer the games were played with fellow villagers. NORTH against SOUTH played the Tug -of-war." There was a long struggle between the strong men of south and north sides of the village. South side won the game after a long and gruelling fight. When the noise of the ap- plauders quieted down, the angry uproar of the LOSERS raised their voices to "do it all over again." The uproar was so ter rife that the judges of the games decided to pay the losers as well as the winners "to avoid pos sible civil war"
 Good Housekeeping
 A young lady was brought in from Savoonga recently with a gym shot wound in her hands. Reports revealed that Judith Peel oowook was sweeping her room when .22 rifle fell and went off. hitting her hands. She was evac- uated to Nome by the Air Force plane.
 School
 Very nice couple are teaching here this time The school chil- dren are happy once more. Every one says "now we can eat until we are full" They had complained of being hungry in school since the Archie Demerts left. School lunch cooks tell of the friendly atmosphere in the school house makes everyone happy.
 For many years the school had no toilets for the children - ever since the running water and sewage pipes were out of order. This summer two places are fixed for latrines just outside of the school house. Another addition to make children happy.

NEW TIMOTHY SEED IS NOW AVAILABLE

Five hundred pounds of Engmo timothy seed will be turned over to the Alaska Crop Improvement Association this spring, announc- ed Roscoe Taylor of the Alaska Agriculture Experiment Station. Engmo, a Norwegian variety, is extremely winterhardy, and has produced high yields of excellent quality forage in trials in Alaska. It was first tested in Alaska in 1850. The present seed supply is the result of seed production agreement with the Washington State Department of Agriculture.
 Engmo can be best used by All aska's dairymen in planting with Alaskland red clover, Taylor said Seed of this clover, released several years ago, is also avail able from the Crop Improvement Association: Mixtures of Engmo and Alaskland should have many advantages over currently grown forage crops on many dairy farms, TyIor stated. Recommended seed ing, fertilizing and other cultural practices will be issued in a few weeks. Successful production of these crops requires special man. agement, therefore, farmers are advised to try them on a limited scale until familiar with their production.
 In accepting this new seed dor distribution pr. Charles Logsdon, secretary of the Crop Improve ment Association, said it will be offered in time for this springs plantings. Persons interested in purchasing timothy or clover seed are asked to mail their order to Alaska Crop Improvement Asso- citation, care of Experiment Sta ton, Palmer.
 Prices are expected to be soc cents pound for Engmo timothy and 85 cents pound for flask land clover.
