Shooting of moose is over for
a while and no doubt the lucky
hunter who came home with his ]
kill has already preserved the
animal in various ways for win- j
ter's use, but if you do happen
to have some moose, not yet car
ed for. the Extension Service has
just received a few tried and true |
recipes as used by Mrs. Bertha j
Meiers of Anchorage. Last week,
Mrs. Meiers appeared on the Ex
tension Service television pro
gram and explained as she show
ed on the program, bologne sau
sage, moose sausage, and liver
sausage. Also she had a beau
tiful” moose nose, which she
plannd to prepare and serve as
jellied moose nose. Moose nose is
quite a delicacy. These recipes are
available at the Extension office.
Further. Mrs. Meiers gave some
hints from her several years of
practical experience with moose
eookerv. 1. Fry in very hot pan
without much fat. 2. After froz
en for several months, dip in
bread crumbs to keep juice from
drainig out. 3. Trim well after
frozen for several month The
edges will have absorbed locker
odors. 4. Use the flank for cur
ried meat dishes—use brisket
with sauerkraut.
Mrs. Meiers even used the
moose ears. She wishes everyone
who have their animals’ ears
would give them to her—not for
food—but the outside of the ears
is lovely fur for mittens and
caps.
Each week the Extension Ser
vice presents a program on tele
vision station K.T-V.A. Channel
11 at 4:45. It is hoped that all
who has a set listens and watches
the fine material offered on this
program.
Mrs. Audrey Sweeney, of the
Butte, and secretary-treasurer
of the local Flying Club soloed off
the Palmer Airport October 3.
Her instructor was Rene Niel
sen, Mile 73. Miss Nielsen recent
ly received her instructors rat
ing on float ships. This rating is
in addition to those instructor
ratings already held by Miss
Neilsen.

RUSSIAN SHIPPING
l£NGTH OF NORTHERN
SIBERIA, SCIENTIST SAYS
Tnt-'n'ive Russian efforts dnr~
ng the past 15 years have made
it a routire matteT for that
country to send its ships along
♦he length of Northern Siberia, a
British scientist recently told a
University of Alaska assembly.
He is Dr. Terence Armstrong
r~or? the Sco’t Polar Research
Institute at Cambridge, England
a"d author of the book "The
Northern Sea Route: Soviet Ex
ploitation of the North East Pas
sage.” The scientist has spent
much time studying all available
information about this general
area and is a recognized world
authority on it.
In Dr. Armstrong’s opinion the
successful Russian efforts to send
to Northern Siberia are "unden
iably a great achievement, and
one which contrasts sharply with
correspondeing development in
the western hemisphere.”
Dr. Armstrong pointed out that
it is a tremendous task to use
the sea route along the north
j coast of Siberia.
"These waters are icebound
. and impassable for shipping at
least seven months of the year—
in some parts of eight, nine or
ten. In the remainder there still
I is plenty of ice about, and this
m turn causes fogs which tend
♦o be most frequent in the months
when there is least ice.”
Dr. Armstrong explained that
making the route work involved
organizing a large number of ser
vices—icebreakers, meteorologi
cal stations, hydrographic ser
vice "and a large staff of scientists..
He said it is extremely difficult
to obtain information about Rus
sian activities in the Arctic area.
World War II did force consider
able relaxation of information
about, and non-Russian activities
in, the area. Since the end of
♦ he war, the secrecy lid once more
has been tightly clamped down.
“There have been reports in
• r,•• foreign press of the passage
f n •. 1 vessels and troopships,
but these are generally unsub
stantiated,” Dr. Armstrong point
ed out.
He said one branch of activity
' about which the world does know
is the Kara Sea timber traffic.
This information is available be
cause many foreign vessels have
been working on this route trans
porting the Siberian timber to
i hungry world markets.
These ships first call at Mur
mansk. Then they pass through
I the Kara Sea and proceed 400
i miles up the Yenisey River. Dur
ing this time they are under Rus
sian control, which includes lock
| ing up all the cameras until the
i ships clear Murmansk on the
homeward passage a month later.
Dr. Armstrong said the secrecy
which the Soviet government has
enforced since 1946 “makes one
suspicious. But if one suspects
large-scale military activity, one
may be exaggerating the impor
tance of the strategice side; much
purely economic information is
kept secret.” He also stated that
he has the impression Siberia is
being developed industrially on
; a large scale.

For What It’s Worth
Farm Safety
Farming is a hazardous oco"
pation. It ranks next to construc
tion and mining in num'oer ot ac
cidents per 100,000 workers.
I have noticed some unsafe
practices being used on farms this
summer and have heard of oth
ers. Some people got by with
them, while some didn’t and con
sequently had a lost-time acci
dent.
Some accidents that happened
^his summer—Working with an
ax in close quarters, a man sever
ed the tendons on the back of
the hand when the end of the
handle hit an obstruction. He was
lucky—he didn’t lose his hand
and he didn't have to be hospital
ized—but he lost several weeks
of work. Moving into a clear area
would have saved him several
hundred dollars.
Another farmer tried to clear
his field chopper by forcing the
forage in with his foot. The for
age caught his foot and pulled it
under the pressure roller. He was
able to pull his foot free after
it was badly injured. Result—
a lot of lost time in the hospital
and skin grafting will have to be
done. Stoping the machine be
fore attempting to clear it would
have prevented that accident and
saved a lot of needless expense.
Another farmer suffered a lost
time accident and a severely in
jured thumb while working
around machinery while it was
| running. More lost time and need

less expense..
A tractor upset and pinned the
driver underneath. The tractor
was climbing a steep grade when |
the front wheels hit a bump or j
log and the tractor went over j
backward pinning the operator.
Luckily there was no fire or a |
death would have resulted. It |
took about an hour to round up
th<’ neighbors and free the driver, j
The above should make all of
us realize what can happen to us |
any day of the year. It is during !
the harvest season when we are
in a great hurry that we take ,
chances. Unnecessary and danger
ous chances which save only a
few seconds and can cost plenty. !
KEEP SHIELDS in place on
power take-off shafts. DON'T
wear torn or loose clothing
around operating machinery.
SHIELD OR COVER all chain
drives. ALWAYS hitch to the
tractor drawbar—never to the
axle. NEVER fill a fuel tank with
i the engine running. GROUND a
rubber tired tractor when refuel
, ing. NEVER refuel a HOT engine,
let it cool first.
There are many other things
| that I could mention. Check your
j methods of operation and see
how many could cause you to
have a severe injury or maybe kiLU
you. ___
