WET WEATHER HAMPERS FORAGE CROP
HARVEST IH MATANUSKA VALLEY
Wet weather is hampering
the forage crop harvest in the
Matanuska Valley, according
to the USDA statistical report
ing service and Paul Pownall,
agricultural statistician.
Rains during the week end
ing Aug. 24 totaled around
three inches, and fields are
soft with lodging fairly com
mon. Ensiling of oats, peas,
and barley have continued
every day, however, except
when rains were heavy.
Very little hay has been
harvested without some dam
age. and the heavy rains have
delayed the use of the dehy
dration and pelleting machine
because of too much moisture
in the grasses.
Small grains are maturing
slowly. Barley fields are turn
ing color slowly and need
much dry weather to ripen
enough for combining, Pownall
said. A few early fields of oats
have started to turn color,
whth grain filling well. Heads
are heavy and the stand is
generally good.
Pownall said that potato
vines are continuing to grow
and fields in most cases are
well covered. In many fields
the tubers have not fully siz
ed as yet and another week or
two of good growing weather
is needed for best develop
ment. The crop is one to two
weeks later than last year. A
small quantity was harvested
in the past week, sufficient to
supply local store needs and
for resale on military contract.
The statistician noted that
the quality of the head lettuce
crop this season has been un
usually good and that the sup
ply is plentiful. Good quality
Alaska-grown cabbage is
: available at all stores and
roadside stands. The main car
rot crop harvest has not yet
started.

Library Deposits
Now Refundable
All deposits made by patrons
of the Palmer Public Library
are now refundable, it was
decided at a special meeting
of the Library Board on Aug.
23.
The move was made to make
the library eligible for fed
eral and state funds, accord
ing to the library directors.
Deposits may be picked up at
the library any Wednesday
evening or Saturday after
noon until Sept. 21.
Board members said they
hope that patrons will change
their deposits to a member
ship and thus help the library
to grow.
“Memberships are only $2 a
year and much good reading
can be done for this small
amount,” it was stated. “Mem
bers of the Palmer Public Li
brary Association are those in
terested in having a library in
Palmer, and this is the group
which elects the board of di
rectors for the association.”
Alaska Farm
Month Marked
Gov. Egan has declared Aug.
11 through Sept. 8 Alaska
Farm Month, Sigmund H. Re
stad, director of agriculture,
said this week. These dates in
clude those of the agricultural
fairs in the state, and the time
when Alaska produce is at its
best.
Farm Month is designated
for the promotion of Alaska
agriculture by i n dividuals,
government agencies, cham
bers of commerce and farm or
ganizations, Restad said. This
year’s activities will include
farm month displays at fairs,
press releases, radio shorts,
and a TV series, according to
Restad.
“Although the season has
been cool and wet, causing
many crops to be behind sche
dule, there is a good supply of
local produce in the Anchor
age and Fairbanks markets
and in many family roadside
stands,” Restad concluded.
Each year the Columbia
empties enough water to cover
180-million acres one foot deep.
