rcld Rico was a visitor this weak
The snow on the mountains came down
quite low recently and the rain is
not too warm, so far we have had a
very fcsvorrble spring but need n ■
lot more warm weather.
The Anchor-'ge USO news states that
Co-op, Manager L.C.Stock was the
gues-t speaker at the USO Forum
last- week and spoke on the Matanusk"
Valley anr’ its problems.
There has been n very cooperative j
fooling in the Valley this spring, !
neighbors have made their tractors
and other farm cquiptment available'
to their neighbors and vheie the
machinery owner was short of help
the neighbors have exchanged work
frequently. The potato planting has
been progressing very nicely and
considerable grain has been planted
and nearly every one has started on
their Victory Gardens.
There has been some very bad wrecks
v automobile drivers on the loose,
ne -fp.ct that no one has been killed
is largely because modern cars have
such strongly constructed bodies.
Tires are being stolen to often
lately and some one is ^ue to learn
what the colored boy, said when he
was asked if he hn^ anything to say
before he was to be hung for a crime
that he had comited," well” he said
"this is sure going to be a lesson
to me" some one will be caught and ,
it may be a pretty bitter lesson to
them too.
Wdrk was started on the Co-op.saw :
mill a short .time ago and it is .
hoped that it will be in operation
in time to cut some lumber for a.
lot of needed construction^ Some
buildings need repairs and silos
are going to be in demand. Cement j
is so expensive that local timber j
should save considerable expense. i
