Newlyweds Honored
A surprise charivari was
given at camp 10 last Thursday
night to Lawrence Snodgrass
and his bride. A lunch was
served at the mess hall and the
boys working at the sawmill
where Lawrence is employed as
a cat skinner presented the cou
ple with a set of silver table serv- j
ice. They also received the stai -
of a set of dishes, eight cups
and saucers of the new Bavari
an china in modernistic design
with platinum and gold trim.
John Bisson was master'of
ceremonies.

(Continued from page 1)
that the bees get the material
with which to build their cells.
Mr. Irwin has proven that it
is cheaper to kill off the hives
each year and purchase new
bees. It would take thirty-five
pounds to feed them over the
winter. However, he is keeping
the hive of Caucasians and will
compare their work next year
with new bees.
Another thing that Mr. Ir
win has proven is that a laying
mash of first quality can be made
from Alaskan products. In the
proportions of 100 pounds of
oats, 200 of wheat, 100 of barley,
100 of fish meal and 10 pounds
of salt you can make your own
laying mash. The cost of grind
ing runs about 17^ cents per
cwt.
Tests with chemical fertilizers
are complicated and are too
lengthy for discussion here, but
a simple tip that may help some
comes from Mr. Irwin. He says
not to spread manure in the win
ter. Rains in the spring will wash
all the fertilizing values away
before they get a chance to sink
into the frozen ground. Wait
till your land is thawed, spread
it on, then plow it under right
away.
If you have any unanswered
questions on what to raise, how
to raise it or how to care for it
after it’s raised, it might be a
good idea to have a talk with
Don Irwin.
