The Post Office Department
said today it had added some
$500 regular career employees
in the postal service between
March 81 and June 80 without
any significant increase in cost.
The new positions resulted
from a sharp curtailment in ex-
cess hours being worked by
substitute postal employeS
around the country, Deputy
Postmaster General II. w
Brawley said.
Longtime policy had limited
regular employees to a 40-houl
week, while substitutes in many
instances worked 80 or more
hours weekly.
On March 81, the department
asked that bStituteS bt
limited to a normal week anC
that their excess manhourS bC
converted into regular career
positions on a standard work
week.
For example, the department
said, a substitute employe VIII
previously worked 80 hours pc
week is limited now to half o
that. His excess hours hav'
made available a career position
for a second employe. The to
tai wage cost for the two re
mains unchanged, it said.
In most instances, substitute
have moved into the regula
career ranks.
The department said also
had added 5000 persons t,

idly on contact with the air, dis
solves readily and oozes out
onto the beach, becoming so
soft as to be impossible. Gravel
which keeps shifting down
from the bluff covers this clay,
making gravel beach on
which we can fish. II all this
gravel is exhausted we shall
have nothing but soft blue clay
on the beach, utterly impass-
able.
This would, in turn. cause
erosion very readily and the
road would be eaten away in 10

in 1859 and so feet in 1860. The
homes in this area have been
moved back several times but
the road will not be moved.
We would like the state to
get the gravel from the east
side of the road and not push
any debris over the bluff, max

the men fishing below. If the
state sets the example I'm sure
the oil companies will follow.

Editors Note: Following is
copy of a letter sent to Gov
ernor Egan.
Governor William A. Egan,
Juneau. Alaska.
Dear Mr.. Egan:
live and I fish at Kalifonsky
on the Kenai Peninsula. This
year the state is building
beautiful road here, replacing
the Union Oil road. The west
side of the road has been used
by commercial fishermen for
many, many years and in many
many spots they have built up
fishing locations that catch the
eye of tourists, which Alaska
certainly needs. The fishermen
have their web buildings, cab
ms, net taeks, fish drying racks,
smoke houses and so on built
on the narrow strip of land still
belonging to the BLM. We
would certainly like for the
state to select this land SO we
can have some protection for
our property.
On May 18th the project engi-
neer (state) told one fisherman
ne would have to get his prop
erty moved off, that he was
about ready to push the over
burden over the cliff or bank
to the beach, to get the gravel
from under the lots. The fisher
man told him that he had the
lots leased from the B.L.M. and
that he had neither the time nor
the money to do this. The an
sWer was that the engineer had
a road to build and if somebody
got hurt that was just too bad.
AT this particular place the
road is 800 feet from the bank.
We have received word from
the engineer that he will take
all the gravel, down to the blue

Other possible drawbacks to
the federal sale were lack of
proper advertisement and too
high appraised value. Although
the lots were not priced too
high for sale, to begin the bid
ding at premium rate discour-
aged some bidders, one partici-
pant said.
Another BLM sale is sehed-
uled July 10, it was announced,
with additional lots being Off

BLM Lond Sole
Lacked Response;
Few Lots Sold

The Bureau of Land Man
agement's small tract sale held
last Saturday in Kenai drew
a small crowd and little re-
Spouse.
OF the SO lots offered in the
Kenai, Homer, Ninilchik and
Anchor Point areas only III
we're sold. Only two of these
tracts brought more than the
appraised value.
The sale was in direct con-
srast to the state sale held last
week earlier at which all lots
we're sold bringing premium
prices.
Those attending the BLM
sale gave several possible rea-
Ions for the lack of response.
Most restrictive were the fact
hat only one lot would be al
lowed per individual and then
only if that individual did not
have another federal domestic,
and that cash payment for the
lots, priced from $3.50 to So, TOO
would be required.

Vacations Wonderful to Get Home From

End State Park-which we
drove past rather quickly.
In upper New York State,
where we stayed overnight,
we were told that the ther-
mometer last winter dropped
to 40 below zero, so we hurried
on the next morning to Staid
Vermont and thence down
into bustling Massachusetts,.
At Stockbridge, which is
Park Avenue with mountains,
we stayed overnight with
friends just a few miles from
the site of the famed Tangle-
wood concerts. Our gracious
hostess, Holly Clark, proudly
displayed her flock Of Dorset
sheep and revealed her plan
to sell lambs at very light
weights to gourmet restau-
rants at premium prices. We
wished her luck. We had sold
our heavy lambs in early sum-
mer for very light prices.

farm work while their men
worked beside them. I pointed

Pruning Limbs From
Established Trees

When pruning limbs from a tree,
don't become alarmed if the wound
bleeds some, says Ed Ralph, as
sociate county agent. Bleeding, or
dripping Of sap from a man-made
wound is natural at this time Of
year. says experts at the Univer-
sity of Delaware.
Naples, birches and beeches are
prime offenders on this score so
they shouldn't be pruned until
summer.
On the others, the wound should
be painted with an approved wound
dressing compound as soon after
pruning as possible. You do this to
prevent entrance of wood decay
organisms, which normally enter
only through natural or man-made
wounds. Once established, these
Milford chronicle., 1961-04-07

organisms rot out the heartwood.
Once you have trees established,
you certainly do not want them to
rot and die if it can be prevented.
Therefore, a little extra effort on
your part when pruning limbs is
well worth the trouble, Ralph add
ed.
For more information on prun-
ing trees, contact Mr. Ralph at
S56-2553 or stop in at the George
town Extension Office.

and garden jobs.
First, there's the pruning. Ever

Guiding ornamental fruit trees, can
be pruned now, he said. Wait un-
til your other shrubs have bloomed
before pruning them.
Try to prune evergreens in a
natural shape If you use hedge
clippers you are likely to come up
with an undesirable formal ap-
pearance, Stevens said.
Fruit trees can be cut back any
time between now and June, al
though it's easier to do now. You
should get the roses pruned as
soon as possible.
This is the time to plant woody
trees and shrubs too. The quicker
the better. Roses are also included
in this plant-noW category. Get
your woody plants in the ground
by May | at the latest, Stevens
urged.
How about the garden? Well, you
can hustle in such cool wiHther
crops as onions, spinach, cabbage,
lettuce, carrots and radishes as
soon as you can work the soil You
should start strawberry and aspar-
3gus beds now too.
Now if it turns cold you can still

and zinnias for transplanting later
