Duty OF Wheat VIII
Not Solve Seed Problem

Portland, Ore, April 1S-The removal
of duty on wheat by Canada and tho
United States will not solve the prob
lem of short supplies in this country,
according to northwest growers and mill
men today.
They say that the wheat grown in
Canada is not of quality good enough
for use as seed here. Then again, they
point out, il would be the height Of
folly for England to allow Canada to
supply this country with milling wheat
when the mother country is herself
starving for supplies.
In local grain circles there is no fear
that this country viii be flooded with
Canadian grain. Canadian wheat prices
are practically as high as in the United
States. The arrangement will, they say,
allow Canada to secure wheat from this
country for seeding.

At the last session of the Idaho
legislature one of the good roads
measures enacted provided for the
use of wide tires on wagons. Sug
gestion has been made that although

measure in mind in the purchase of
new vehicles. The following are
the provisions of the law:

eighths inch tubular steel or iron
axel, one and one.half inch steel or
iron axel, or any axel of equal or
greater strength than those men,
toned unless the tires of such wag-
on be at least three inches wide.
: "Section EVERY resident of the
state who goes without the state,
purchases and bring into this state
for use any wagon which has not
the tires of the width prescribed
herein shall be guilty of a disde-
meanor, providing, county commits
sioners of any county within the
state may at any time allow the
sale of and use of wagons with
tires of less width than herein pro-
vided, on certain roads when in
their judgment it be found neces-
sary.

guilty of the violation of any of the
provisions of this act shall be fineC
in the penal sum of not less thar
$25 nor more than $100, or by i'm
prisonment in the county Jail MOI
less than Is days nor more thar
three months.
"Section 4-This act shall tax,
effect and be in force from ant
after January 1919"
