to handle the water promptly and
with the utmost possible economy.
Wheeler said that there were thirty
times more water in the reservoirs
two years ago than there is this year,
He stated that the department is
right up against it" because of the
long draught. When asked about the
waste from privately-owned artesian
wells, he stated that steps were now
being taken to take action under the
law against all private owners whose
wells were not properly capped. He
declared that it Is a criminal shame
to waste any water at all on the isl
and under the present conditions, and
agreed that it would be good thing
TO take over the five millions of gal
ions that are being poured daily into
the ocean by the two electric com
panies. The necessary funds for this
purpose will have to be appropriated
by the legislature. .......

Barker pismisses insurance Cases.

jefferson City.--Attorney General
John p. Barker dismissed the injunc-
ton proceedings in the supreme court
instituted last summer to restrain the
fire insurance companies from perma'
nently ceasing to do business in Mis-
souri,.
This finally terminates legislation
that directly affected more people and
interests In this state than any other
proceeding ever filed In the supreme
court. 1t was inaugurated when feel
ing over the insurance situation was
tense In the extreme.
One hundred and thirty.two Of the
largest fire insurance companies in
the country were involved.
After the companies had withdrawn
from Missouri on April 80 and had de-
clared their intention of permanently
remaining out of the state, the issu-
ance of the injunction brought mat
tiers to a point, which, after several
weeks of comforting, resulted In the
companies returning and resuminB
business.
The companies withdrew because Of
the repeal OF the Oliver rating law by
the forty.ninth general assembly and
the enactment In its place Of the Orr
insurance bills. The companies took
the position that under the restrictive
features of the new laws they could
not safely continue in business.
The chief Objectionable feature o!
the new law, the companies declared
was that use Of the same ratebook
was made prima facia evidence OF VIC
lation OF the antitrust law.
Under the construction placed on
this point by Attorney General Barker
the companies resumed business with
the understanding that the use Of the
same ratebook would not be held q
violation OF the law, provided there
was no previous agreement as &c
rates.

Jefferson City.-The state board OF
agriculture issued the following Mis-
souri wheat and stock report:
The Missouri! wheat crop for the
year 1913 amounted to $780, 1893 bush
els. These figures are based upon
careful estimates made by more than
Goo correspondents who report to tho
Missouri state board of agriculture.
Tae 1913 wheat crop is 13,S44,1l3
bushels more than was the crop OF
1912. which amounted TO 2l,546,73O
bushels. The average yield per acre
t. 1850 bushels. The value of the
crop, figured at the state price of 81
cents per bushel, is S2S,5O5. SAG.
This Is S9,OG3,977 more than the
1912 wheat crop was worth, The yield
by crop division sections is as fol-
lows: Northeast, G,215,4S2 bushels,
with average yield per acre of 1850

that Missouri has 2.156.637 acres In

ton for the state being 9G.2. Seldom
or never has a wheat crop gone into

Blue Sky Law Is Limited.

Jefferson City.-That the blue
sky" law was not intended by the leg
mlature to apply to business and man
ufacturing concerns. but only to in
vestment companies proposing to sell
their stocks and bonds in Missouri,
was the opinion OF Attorney-General
Barker, rendered to State Bank Com.
missioner Mitchell. The Missouri
blue sky" law was copied largely
from the Kansas statute, but through
amendments was rendered somewhat
ambiguous in terms until nobody
seems to have u clear opinion as TO
what it means, according TO James
Walsh corporation lawyer, in the sec.
rotary Of states office.
