All 4-H members in the Ma
tanuska Valley have been invited

Alaska 4-H Fair which is being
sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of
Anchorage in that city August
26, 27, and 28.
A new, large tent, will be pro
vided for the exhibits. Returns
coming in to the local Extension
Office indicate that there will be
a good showing from the Valley
4-H membership, Lew Hanks,
district agent said this week. If
the exhibitor is unable to take
*his exhibits to Anchorage, they
may be left at the Extension Of
fice in Palmer before 11 a.m. on

NEW TOMATO PRODUCT
BEING PROCESSED
Tomato powder to be mixed
with water to make tomato juice
moved another step toward com
mercial manufacture.
U. S. Department of Agricul
ture researchers demonstrated
that high quality tomato powder
can be produced by a continuous
process in commercial vacuum
drying equipment. Announce
ment of this progress was receiv
ed recently by Mrs. Lydia Fohn
Hansen, Alaska Extension Ser
vice associate director for home
demonstration work.
The new product will have val
ue to Alaskan homemakers, Mrs.
Fohn-Hansen said because it re
quires no refrigeration and is
light in weight. Tomato powder
will be less expensive and easier
to ship and store than ordinary
tomato products.
The new product is an out
growth of succesful studies with
orange juice by the Western Ut
ilitization Research Branch of the
USDA’s Agricultural Research
Service. Orange juice powder is
now in commercial production.
Tomato powder retains its na
tural tomato flavor, color and
nutritive value. It mixes readily
with water. When tomato pow
der reaches commercial produc
tion, Alaskan homemakers may
us it to make tomato paste, soups
and seasoning other foods as well
as for tomato juice.
Further work needs to be done
with preparation of raw materi
als, retention of quality during
storage and marketing before
the powder is ready for home
makers.

University of Alaska students
this fall will find the business ad

tely reorganized to provide the
skilled men and women needed
throughout the territory and else
where, President Ernest N. Patty
said today.
Dr. Fatty explained that Prof.
Joseph P. Fetzer, who took over
the department last term, has
spent the last year studying Al
aska’s business needs and has
oriented his department’s pro
gram to best meet them. Students
can earn a Bachelor of Business
Administration degree.
“As the territory grows, so will
the demand for trained persons
to handle the business problems,”
Dr. Patty said. “Students need
not look elsewhere for this im
portant business training. Their
own university is well equipped
to do the job.”
