Palmer Company
To Distribute
New Invention
A new Palmer company is in
the process of incorporation this
week. Composed of a group of
local business men, the organi
zation will handle the distribu
torship for the Freeman Head
bolt Heater in Alaska and the
Yukon Territory.
The new heater, which has
been in process of manufacture
for only 30 days, will heat the
water in an automobile motor
to starting temperature in 30
minutes, and at a cost of only
four cents a day. It is guaran
teed to be safe and will func
tion in Alaskan temperatures as
low as -60.
The new invention is simple
to install and becomes a perm
anent part of the automobile.
Complete installation and oper
ation instructions come with
each unit.
Heaters are available for
most makes of automobiles for
immediate delivery. An inquiry
address to Box (G) at Palmer,
accompanied by model and
make of vehicle driven, will
supply detailed information.
A company spokesman said
further details and names of the
organization personnel will be
announced very shortly. Terri
torial headquarters offices will
be established in Palmer.
Dairymen Meet
Monday Night
Members of the Dairyman’s
Association will meet in the Ex
tension office at 8 o’clock next
Monday evening, Parker Lester,
extension agent, announced to
day.
A committee from the dairy
man’s group met last week with
Don Irwin, head of Alaskan ex
periment stations, just before
Mr. Irwin left for Washington,
D. C. They discussed final
plans relative to the institution
of the new cattle-breeding pro
gram in the Valley.
Mr. Irwin is expected to have
all final information concern
ing the planned artificial in
semination breeding program,
upon his return from Washing
ton. Mr. Lester said he thought

periment farm will be in the
Valley by early spring.
