CONSERVATION
NOTES
i
LEW E. HANKS
t We have the highest potato
• production on record in Alaska.
■ It doesn’t seem to be so great
■ as to cause trouble moving it
. though. I have talked to several
“Co-Op” officials and directors.
• They seem quite confident that
i our potato crop should move to
■ market without too much trouble,
t The thing we’ve go to do is to put
l out a No. 1 quality pack with an
) orderly flow to the local markets.
According to Stateside farm
journals the farming picture in
the states has been in a rather
dubious condition with consu
mer prices still on the upswing
I while producer prices are low or
dropping.
Beef prices seem to be the most
affected. I have heard of prices
. quoted to producers as low as
eight to fifteen cents per pound,
; depending on grade.
Summer potato prices out
’ i side really took a beating. I un
’r derstand that over-production for
! storage and winter sale is not
. j near as great as was expected.
.j Plantings in Idaho were down
and I hear that grade-out will be
heavy.
j We have a lot of new people
coming to Alaska continually.
1 The market is here and we can
keep the production up by use of
good conservation practices in our
. farming. You all know that pre
. cautions must be used to keep
j your land in condition to turn
t out bumper crops each year.
I They are all logical and inexpen
sive in the long run.
Why don’t you drop into the
[ Soil Conservation office this
j week and talk over a long range
L program for your farm?

Moose to Play
Season’s Last
Football Game Fri.
Members of the Palmer Moose
football team will travel to An
chorage tomorrow afternoon for
their fourth and final football
game of the season against the
Anchorage Eagles. Although the
local gridsters have been defeated
in three encounters with the
Eagles this year, their playing
showed a marked improvement
in the game played October 9
when Anchorage defeated the
Palmer team 26-0.
The first tally came when full
back Linn Woodside on a second
down with 13 yards to go went
through the center to open the
Anchorage scoring. The conver
sion point was not good on an
attempted kick.
During the next quarter Pal
mer kept the Eagles from scoring
with good defensive work, assis
ted by several Anchorage penal
ties, and an Anchorage fumble
which found the Palmer Moose
on the Anchorage 6 yard line.
The Eagles previous smooth
sailing aerial work did not appear
up to par during the Friday game.
Several times the Anchorage boys
were stopped by bad passes.
As in previous games, the
Eagles led in the total number
of penaltes, drawing eight of them
for a 80-yard total. Palmer was
penalized five times for a total
of 45 yards.

It is widely recognized by Master
Brewers that one of the most
important factors in making good
beer is the quality of the water
used in the brewing. Water . . .
\ perfect for brewing . . . flows
crystal pure from Olympia’s own
artesian wells near Olympia,
Washington. It is this water
that has given Olympia Beer its
leadership in character and quality.
