Of This And That
By Betha Digree
Two nice, sunny spring days
. . . then came the rain again
. • . one can think of nothing
better right now than turning up
the thermostat, popping a bowl
of popcorn (with lots of fattening
butter, of course) and settling
down comfortably with an inter
esting book (preferrably one of
outer space ... or an exciting
mystery) . . . pleasant to think
about, but “Bertha the Beast” (one
of our milder names for the lino
type) is hungry and needs copy
to make her happy ... so we
must just forget the corn and
book and get busy . . .
Mary Sorum was a busy gal over
the weekend . . . packing to be
done for her vacation from her
duties as cashier at the Bank of
Kodiak . . . getting ready for her
installation as president of BPW
on Monday evening . . . She left
Tuesday morning via PNA for
Seattle where she was joined by
her mother . . . after spending a
few days in Seattle they will go
to Anaconda, Montana to visit
Mary’s son, Bob Lear, and his wife
and daughter . . . Mary is looking
forward toward her first meeting
with her year old granddaughter
... Mary will also visit her father
in Portland, Oregon before re
turning to Kodiak early in July
. . . her husband, Les, will keep
the home fires burning during her
absence and (she hopes) keep the
grass cut.flowers planted
....and a rockery built_ail
that should keep Les out of mis
chief . . .

FERTILIZERS PAY DIVIDENDS
By using proper soil tests and
applying the correct type of ferti
lizer, Alaskan gardeners and
farmers can grow improved crops
and add to their income.
“See your extension agent,”
says soil specialist Paul F. Martin,
who has compiled a new Univer
sity of Alaska Extension Service
leaflet, “Sampling Soils.” Also re
cently issued by the Extension
Service is a circular titled “Fertili
zers Pay Dividends.” Both are
available without cost from local
extension offices or by writing
Box B, (College, Alaska.
The soil illustrated leaflet notes
that the Extension Service has a
modem soil testing laboratory at
Palmer to serve the public. Tests
for the major plant foods—nitro
gen, .phosphate and potash—as
well as acidity or akalinity mea
surements and other special tests
are available free of charge.
The pink colored leaflet des
cribes proper methods of taking
soil samples and suggests that
interested persons obtain mailing
cartons and additional information
from their local extension agents.
For example, this question “How
Do I Sample My Soil?” is answer
ed in the leaflet as follows: 1) Dig
a V-shaped hole 6 inches deep.
Then take a half-inch slice from
one smooth side of the V-shaped
trench; 2) Trim sides of the slice
leaving a one-inch strip on the
spade. Dump this strip into a
clean bucket. Repeat in 10 to 20
places within any one field where
conditions look similar.
