to protect Stalingrad and provide
a safe port, which may seem mod-
est for one of the world’s future
powers.
In answer to a question the
speaker ventured the opinion that
in good time Russia would open
against Japan, but not to gain
more territory and would prefer
that Manchuria revert to China,
as it was originally. In fact, he
presented Stalin as a modest in-
dividual, most anxious to work in
hand with the United States,
from which it had gained most of
its war protection, and its means
of progress as a nation; to copy
more or less and measure the
good results that follow capital-
istic government; but he admitted
that this country will still have
its suspicions.
Another feature of the meeting
was a brief talk by Joe Graham,
commending Rev. E. C. Muhly,
as a member of the club now leav-
ing for his new pastorate at Twin
Falls,.Idaho, and for good work
in building up physically and spir-
itually his Mount Olive Lutheran
Church in Shelton, and extending
the best wishes of the club for
his future success. Rev. Muth re-
sponded briefly in returning his
appreciation for past support in
his efforts.
Next Tuesday's meeting will be
ladies’ night with a guest speak-
er from the university.

leaving that country free for its

that control was desired only over
the Balkan and border states for
future protection only, and that

Hints on Poultry Raising Contained
In Report from County Agent’s Office
Laying flocks made up of en-
tirely good, healthy pullets raised
on clean ground and kept en-
tirely away from older poultry
are most.likely to live and lay
best.
Fred Frasier, extension poultry
specialist at the State College of
Washington, sums up these ad—
vantages of well-managed, all-
pullet flocks.
They can readily be established
by buying healthy, bred-to-lay
chicks from a reliable hatchery
early each spring.
Pullets lay more eggs than hens
of the same breeding.
Serious diseases are less likely
to affect pullets where they are
kept in flocks by themselves. If
pullets are kept in the same
flock with older birds, these pul-
lets are more likely to get di-
seases. When layers are kept a
second year they should be kept
separate from the pullets.
Poultry diseases and parasites
are commonly spread from older
poultry to younger stock by con-
tact or through manure or equip-
ment. Starting with a new flock
each year largely offsets this
danger.
Early hatched pullets also lay
in the fall months when egg prices
are relatively high. Most yearling
hens are melting instead of being
in good lay at that time. Partly
for this reason the average pul-
let generally lays from 20 to 50
more eggs in a year than a year—
ling or older hen of the same
breeding.
Intense Drive
To Secure Fir
And Spruce
I Seattle, Dec. 27—Upland for-
ests of Noble fir on the Cascades
and the Olympics are the front of
a war drive by logging operators
and their crews, the objective be-
ing special woods for producing
I4,000 more troop-carrying gliders,
I an announcement of the West
ICoast Lumbermen’s Association
i stated today.
i “Aircraft grades of Noble fir
,‘ and Sitka spruce are hard to get,”
the Association said. “Like the
‘ orders for special grades of Doug-
las fir for military truck bodies,
the urgent order for aero lumber
came at a tough time of the year
for West Coast loggers. Noble fir
grows only at elevations of 2,500
or more feet. At this season snow
enough to make logging impos-
sible may storm along any day
~where the Noble fir ranges.
I “So the order of the day for
the upland loggers is to get out
all the logs possible while the
ground is good. Seven million feet
of aircraft stock will be required,
in an average supply of 700,000
feet per month for ten monthsto
maintain the schedule of glider
i construction.
! “Aircraft lumber specifications
'are so high.” the Association
pointed out, “that only from 10
to 15 per cent of the average No—
ble fir or Sitka spruce log output
will make the grade. That is, some
70,000,000 feet of the aircraft spe-
cies of timber must be felled,
bucked and hauled out of the
woods to provide the select 7,000,-
000 board feet of quality lumber
that American Army gliders re-
quire.
! “The present big production
3drive in upland logging opera-
;tions is to log out and pile up a
giant reserve of Noble fir aero
timber, to provide a supply during
the period when deep snow stops
'high mountain logging.”

Active Club
Directs Infantile
Paralysis Drive
Appointment of the Active Club
of Shelton to direct the 1945
“Fight Infantile Paralysis” cam-
paign for Mason county was an-
nounced today by E. G. Sick, Seat-
tle industrialist and civic leader
who is state chairman of the Na-
tional Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis drive.
Mr. Sick stated that this year
in history as to the severity and
MSHELTON-MASON COUNTY JOURNAL‘
number of infantile paralysis
cases reported nationally. “Wash-
ington, fortunately, had fewer
cases than has ordinarily been
true in past years,” Mr. Sick ob-
served, “but nationally, this has
been the second worst epidemic
year in the history of the United
States. That is why we must do
an even bigger and better job in
the forthcoming campaign. We
must make certain that where-
ever the disease strikes next year
there will be funds available to
fight it just as effectively as has
been done this year."'
Appointed by Ed McKinney,
president of the Active Club, to
organize and conduct the cam-
of Bob. Million, chairman, Lyle
McElroy and John Ballard.
“The drive will start January
14 and continue through the
30th,” Mr. Million said. “Commit-
tee appointments to complete the
fund-raising organization thruout
the county will be announced in
a few days. Campaign plans now
being developed include the active
participation of every phase of
our civic and community life, and
we hope to make it possible for
every business, every organization
and every family in the county
to be represented by some contri-
bution to the 1945 ‘Fight Infan-
tile Paralysis’ campaign."

Postmasters Paid for Stamps
The first postage stamps were is-
sued by individual postmasters at
their own expense in 1845. Post-
masters at Alexandria, Va., Brattle~
bore, Vt. Lockport, N. Y., Mill-
] bury, Mass., Baltimore, Md., Bos-
cawen, N. H., Providence, R. 1.,
St. Louis, Mo., New Haven, Conn.,
and New York, N. Y., supplied their
patrons with stamps or stamped en—
velopes, which are now very valu—
able and highly prized by collectors.
The postmaster stamps were super-
seded by the first government issue
on July 1, 1847.

More Efficient Service Promised
Harstine Island Residents
Speedier and happier landings;
are promised the long-suffering“
residents of Harstine Island withfi
the change of ferry headquarters
the first part of January from
the island to the present landing
dock on the mainland at Picker—
ing. according to Vincent Paul,
retiring chairman of the board of
county commissioners. .
“With the ‘grid’ on the main-
land,” Commissioner Paul stated,
“it will be much easier to get a
mechanic on the job and secure
the necessary new parts for the
ferry than when supplies and
workmen had to be taken by row-
boat across the water to the is-
land.”
The houseboat in which the
operator of the ferry, Earl Harri-
man resides, will also be moved
to the mainland‘with the first
high tides, according to the plans
of the board of county commis-
sioners. Later on, when building
materials are available, the board
plans to construct a new and
more attractive home for the
ferry operator, which will be own-
ed and maintained for him by the
county.
