ration to effect q big saving of the
country's wheat supply, Julius
Barnes, president Of the wheat
corporation, declared here today.
Mr.. Barnes who held brief confer

the decrease in flour consumption
amounts to 20 per cent. He further
stated that flour mills have increas-
ed their production Is per cent above

policy Of encouraging -four milling

Electric Signs May GLOW
During Stated Hours
Only
MAY ELIMINATE
THEM ALTOGETHER
Use Enough Coal To Keep
100000 Families Warm
ALI Winter
CRy Associated Press.l

Washington. Nov. I0.-The gov
ernment's first move toward elinlin-
ating nonessential industries to save
coal, was made last night in an or
der limiting the use Of fuel for cleo
trio display advertising to the hours
between 7:45 and IL p. m. A score
Of other industries will be affected
by the order.
Faced by the realization that coal
production cannot keep mace with
the rate Of consumption, the admin
stration is ready If necessary to
guarantee supplies for domestic
users and industries either necessary
in the conduct Of the war or vital
to the public.
1t is estimated that the limiting OF
electric advertising to u hours each
night will save so per cent of the
fuel now used in maintaining the
lighting of Broadway in New York
city and hundreds OF ,=ss famous
thoroughfares in towns throughout
the country. In a statement accom-
panying the order the estimate is
carried that 1t will be necessary to
eliminate electric signs altogether.
Exception was made in the order
for signs maintained by small mer-
chants, for the purpose of directing
ZIG P0OAA1 W pAGICCS Va buSAAAESH.
If these are not of an unreasonable
size, they will be permitted To con-
tinue lighted while the establish
ments are open for business, but
must be dark with the closing of the
shops.
Experts say that about 100000
tons OF coal are used annually for
the display of signs This amount. it
is estimated, would keep 100000 fam
lilies warm during the winter months.
Although the fuel administration
is anxious to avoid interference with
legitimate business as far as pos
sible," said the statement accom-
panying the order, at is determined
that the industries essential to the
war and the domestic consumers OF
the country shall be protected
A committee of gas and electric
service companies co-operated with
the fuel administration in framing
the order.

uation at the meeting OF the state
commissioners to be held next Jan
uary.
Were the cities along the Red
trail from st. Paul to Miles City sold
out? II not, what has become Of the
traffic which was ours during
the summer Of 1915? These ques-
lions have been asked over and over
again in Fargo and among the mem
bers of the different civic and boost
er organizations of the state through
which the Red trail passes.
The first movement to get this
trade back will be the joint-meeting
~ the Stark county commissioners
and the members Of the Dickinson
Commercial club. to be held in Dick
inson on Monday, Nov. 10.
A report from Dickinson this morn
ing states that at meeting Of the
Commercial club held Wednesday
evening, Secretary Orchard of that
club, put on his fighting clothes and
in strong language presented the
case of a once prosperous automo-
bile trade, but which has been swal-
lowed up by the Yellowstone trail
boosters. From Fargo to Glendive
auto men will state that where for
merly 25 automobiles passed over
the trail in 1915 there has been one
to that number since Yellowstone
trail boosters became active.
1t is known here that in st. Paul
there are two paid men Of the Yell
lowstone trail. There is also one
located at Miles City. Their specific
duty is to steer the. fasteners west
over the south road and at the west
end of their activities there the au-
toists going east are sent over the
Yellowstone. 49,.
Mr.. Orchard Of the Dickinson Com
mercial club. recently made the
statement that he never would have
resigned the secretaryship Of the
National Parks Highways associa-
ton, If he thought that the organ
ization was going to fall into the
hands of the Spokane and Yellowstone
organization, but thinking and being
persuaded that a larger center would
be of larger benefit to the highway
and the organization, allowed the
matter to pass from his hands with
the result that the child Of his care
and the pet Of the state has been al
lowed to slip from it's birthplace.

London, Nov. 10.-A dispatch to

German official circles view the

general satisfaction that the present

FRANKLIN co.
BREAKS RECORD

Breaking production records is
getting to be habit with the Frank
lin Automobile Company, and this
condition seems particularly expsd
lent these days when the demand for
this economical car has so greatly
increased.
Only few weeks ago the Company
reported a factory production record
of 2S5 cars per week, and now comes
the announcement that 294 cars, an
average Of 53.4 cars per day for the
5h working days Of the week. have
been constructed in a single week.
Since the fall schedule calls for 242
cars per week, Ii is apparent that the
producers are striving at least to
keep ahead of the schedule outlined
for them, even IL they cannot quite
keep pace with the sales demand for
the Franklin Car.
When the FIVE new additions to the
plant were put into service in March,
Il was expected that congestion
would be relieved. as the added facil-
tiles and floor space were considered
ample for the manufacture on the
scheduled plan Of 1000 cars in the
223 working hours OF the month.
Barely seven months have elapsed
since the Company was placed on this
IL, 900 -car-per year basis and now q
record Of production is announced mt
the rate Of 1900 cars per year. the
maximum production capacity Of the
plant. When it is remembered that
only as far back as June, 1915 the
Company was building only $500 cars
annually, the rapid growth of the orr
ganization Is all the more apparent.
The Franklin Company now has
the distinction of the biggest payroll
within the Syracuse limits and occu-
pies, as part OF its plant, the largest
single Industrial building In that
city, nine acres Of floor space being
under one roof.

SHELTER FOR SHEEP.

1t is impossible to suggest ah, very
definite sheep barn plans without

the barn is to be built In planning
barns or sheds for breeding flock Of
sheep space of ten or twelve square
feet per eve will give sufficient room.
The essentials Of shelter for sheep are
O dry floor, (2) good roof, o. an abua-
dance Of fresh air, az avoid drafts, o.
avoid narrow doors and passages so
eve heavy with lamb will not be III
jured, and 90 provide sufficient feed
ing trough space so all the sheep can
eat at the same time.
We find that a shed twenty-five or
thirty feet wide and as long as neces-
sary to house the flock gives very good
results at tire Missouri agricultural ex-
pertinent station. 1t should be open on
the south ana may be built with feed
trough ana Feed alley along the north

Santa Barbara, a city of 10000, is
nicely situated in a valley between
high mountains, with break at the
south end of the city, giving them an
ocean frontage.
We visited the old Santa Barbara
mission. There are 81 of the old
Spanish missions in California and
we have visited nine of them.
The country along this coast and as
far south as San Diego is given much
to bean culture and many thousands
of acres of limas are yielding a boun-
tiful crop. The sugar beet also claims
"a large acreage. AT Carpenteria,
south of Santa Barbara, we saw the
world s largest grape vine. 1t is about
three feet in diameter
One more crooked and steep pass,
but well paved, called the Conejo
grade, took us into the San Fernando
valley, and by way of Hollywood to
Los Angeles, which we reached nearly
noon on September 27.
We had an enjoyable visit with Mr..
and Mrs. Edward Carr, both in going
and returning. The second night of
our going trip, we were guests at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. George Nc
Caughna.
The time was delightfully."- spent
there, as we had the added pleasure
OF the company of Miss Flo Webster
and her mother, and the Parkill fam
lily motored over from Ocean Park to
spend the evening.
But one short storm and only one
tire puncture on the trip, and a cloud
less sky and full moon while in the
Yosemite, and good health and large
appetites, made the trip profitable
and enjoyable.

ACCIDENT AT WEEKS HOME.
Fixture Blown off the Steel Cell
inc by Crossed Wires.

During the absence of Judge John f..
Weeks and Mrs. Weeks in Montpelier
this week strange accident occurred in
their home on South Pleasant street
In some manner not easily eXplainable
the electric wires connecting with one
of the two lighting fixtures in the upper
hall of the house became crossed. So
fierce was the electric heat that large
hole was melted in the brass base of the
fixture, and the steel ceiling to which
the fixture was attached was blackened.
The entire fixture dropped to the floor,
where it was found upon the return of
Mr.. and Mrs. Weeks from Montpelier.
1t was regarded by Judge Weeks as
a narrow escape from fire, and lays his
his good fortune to the fact that the
ceiling was one of Steel At the same
time the ceiling acted as a partial con-
ductor for the electricity and carried it
to the other hall fixture, finally burning
out the fuse and causing an ordinary
short circuit The wiring at the Weeks
home was done in 1904, and as result
of the accident it has been found that
no insulation was placed between the
hall fixtures and the steel of the ceiling
The fixtures are now being reset with
proper insulation to remove any further
danger. According to Clarence c..
Wells of the Middlebury Electric Com
pany there are number of buildings in
towniwhere the wiring is not entirely
safe according to the improved stan
dards, the work having been done many
years ago.
