T'J-- Valley Farmer Thinks Alaska Might Be Fun With combining out of the way (on some farms) fanners are thinking of a bit of vacation be fore the heavy season of fall ploughing and seeding sets in. To some thismeans fishing. To oth ers It means the far places. At the Oregon Farmers Union picnic at Champoeg Sunday, two ranchers were discussing how much they'd like to drive the highway to Alaska and wondered it it were difficult The Statesman farm editor, listening in, has been able to dig up some of the infor mation from conclusions by Fran cis C. Durkin, field reporter for the American Automobile associa tion, who, in Jury,, covered the distance in a test run. The trip, which officially starts at Dawson Creek. B. C. and takes one to Fairbanks, Alaska, is 1250 miles. The minimum feasible time for a round trip from the north western United States to Fair banks is a month with minimum expense for two, (800, says Mr. Durkin. With proper care, the mo torist can get accommodations covering the entire route, although in some cases these will not be luxurious. Highway Geed Except for precautions against the ubiquitous mosqultos, Mr. Dur kin reports that the tourist needs no special equipment to drive from Dawson Creek to Fairbanks. The summer climate Is as mild as la the United States. The high way itself is a wide, well-engi neered gravel road which Mr. Durkin compares favorably with many standard U. 8. , highways. While It Is not recommended as a pleasure trip when the tem perature drops below zero, it is a year around highway, for In the winter when ice freezes solidly, cars drive blithely across rivers. where ferries are used In sum mer, and proceed along well- ploughed routes. Durkin also reports that while gasoline and tires can be obtained along the trail. It is a good Idea to carry two spares mounted on a wheel and an extra five-gallon for emergency. This is just a pre caution. Spare parts are not avail able In such profusion as along, say U.S. ,101, but they can be obtained from time to time. An extra fan belt Is a nice precau tion, too, he adds, as he suggests that tires should be given a change several times a day to. cool off KNTHROW Electrical Appliances Available Armstrong.

Ledgiar Obtainable t The two most important proced ures of a trip over the highway, he emphasizes, is bringing along a mosquito repellent and tele phoning ahead each day to make sure of accommodations for the night. Lodging prices along the route are about the same as in the United States. Food, however, be comes more and more expensive the closer to Alaska, but it is practically always obtainable. The logical approach to Daw son Creek for the Willamette val- lev farmer Is thrmirti Snokan Dawson Creek itself, says Mr. inirain, is a small town with a good, but small new hotel, eight standard-make car seendM and service stations, and stores where overlooked items may be bought oeiore ine jump-on. V Calf Loss Reported -Heavy in Early Life Estimates -show that from 12 to IS per cent of the calves that are born do not live to six-months of age, thus cutting down greatly the profit to both the dairy and beet industry. Pneumonia and scours are the diseases blamed for taking the K heaviest toll. Again prevention Is better than cure, and preventive measures, livestock men tell us, include making sure that the cow is well supplied with nutrients be fore the calf is born. And later, calf pens should be well bedded and never allowed to become wet and soggy. They should be ex posed to sunlight but free from drafts. Calf pails should be prop erly washed and sterilized before feeding. Not Everybody Will Eat Turkey This Fall The United States turkey crop for 1948 Is now estimated to be around 23,000,000 head, the small est crop since 1938. The average weight of young turkeys sold has increased gradually in recent years. In 1947 the average weight of young toms was 29 per cent heavier than in 1939. The relationship between feed prices and turkey prices are pre dicted to be exceptionally favor able this year, and there may. be considerable Incentive to feed tur keys to heavier weights than in previous year, market autnorlues state. - HARDWARE lOcro Qactrie Percolator.

Bob is also building another loafing shed for his cows. Not, he says, that they are going to do much loafing but it seems modern cows, to be con tented, must have loafing sheds and he .doesn't .want his cows to develop any inferiority comp lexes. -. ; .v. Farm folk who have been show ing at the state fair over a num ber o years will be glad to learn that Mrs. Ella S. Wilson, who has been directly associated with the Oregon event for nearly half a century will be on hand again to welcome them. Ella was first lined up with the fair in 1903 and steer ed it over some pretty tough going from time to time. During her long term of service she has winessed the construction of each one of the fair's 15 major buildings and tells that she remembers when the week long crowds at the fair numbered less than 40,000, compared to .the 250,000 during each of the last two years. now being controlled. At the Blake orchard, growers will have the opportunity to see the effec tiveness of dust control of walnut blight on large trees. Response to progressive tree thinning over a period of years will also be viewed in both wal nuts and filberts. Anti-Mosquito Campaign Cuts Insect Populus In Columbia river community a campaign was carried out early this summer to spray flooded areas along the river and all other places in and around the city where stag nant water was found. By elimin ating the mosquito breeding places, the city hastoeen noticeably insect free this , summer, residents de clare. . ' , The move to control mosquitoes started at The Dalles when Coun r Agent E. M. Mason called a re ting at the chamber of com- erca in early June. Present were Aiblic health authorities, represen tatives of the city, Wasco county, the chamber of commerce and civic organizations. Arthur Thrasher, president ef The Dalles Chamber of Commerce headed he campaign. Arthur Bode, Paul . Weigelt, Chas. Roth, Jr, and Hans Soli were appointed as cap tains of spray teams. Harry Utes, Wasco county sanitarian, and Soil were in charge of mixing oil and DDT. Utes coordinated the cam paign. Then crews totalling appro xima ely 25 volunteer workers moved through the city on Sunday, June 13, with hand and knapsack spray ers, treating all pools, standing flood waters and other places where insects were breeding.
