NOTES FROM YOUR
EXTENSION SERVICE
By Lew Hanks,
District Agent
AH dairymen and other inter
ested persons are invited to a
meeting January 30 at 2 o’clock
at the M.E.A. Mr. Eckert and Mr.
Sweetman will give us informa
tion on the latest in dairy hus
bandry as well as care, use and
repair of machine milking equip
ment. It will be well worthwhile.
Better figure on attending.
There are some signs of spring
showing up. The days are getting
longer and the new seed catal
ogues are arriving. Speaking of
seeds, the latest thing hot off the
press is the new Extension Ser
vice publication “Vegetable Var
ieties for Alaska 1956”. This is a
list of approved standard varie
ties that grow, yield, taste, and
market well. Some seed sources
for each variety are also given.
This list is a MUST for every
producer and gardener in the
Territory. You can obtain one by
calling or writing to an Extension
office in Alaska. Get one. Don’t
buy your garden seed by just
looking at the picture on the seed
for a packet. Check your list
and select the variety you know
will do well. Most local stores
will be carrying these varieties,
before they compiled the list so
you know it’s good. There is also
another new Extension circular
out by the title "Your Lawn”. It
was prepared by H. J. Hodgson.
It has a nice pretty green picture
on the front. Inside in clear logi
cal steps it tells how to grow a
top quality lawn. It also is well
