WHEAT ! 1 \ PRICE TO
MEET FREIGHT RISE

. Y - . . . " 4
Farmers are to be allowed an in
crease in the price Of wheat to equal
ize the advance in freight rates which
will 60 into effect June "a. @
A telegram from Mr.. Hoover, re-
|ceived yesterday by Federal Food Ad-
ministrator E. F.. Ladd, reads as fol-
lows:
"The advance in freight rates June
"a will in justice to the farmer neces-
state an advance of few cents a
bushel in the price of wheat at the
principal Mississippi valley and east
ern terminals. The advance will be
worked out SO as to equalize as far as
possible the loss that the farmers
would otherwise incur through the in
crease in rates.
"Details of the rate advances will
probably not be known until June 25:
at which date we are assembling a
committee of traffic experts to con-
slider what actual advances in price
is necessary as compensation. It is
impossible to complete such plan for
a few days after the above date.
1T is our intention, as far as the
peculiar character of the rate ad-
vance enables us to do so, to work out
a plan that will leave the farmer in
the same intrinsic position that he was
in before that date"

F0RDCAR UPSIDE
DOWN IN DITCH

The engineer on train No. pulling
into the city last Thursday on the N.
P, reported that he noticed a Ford
car bottom side up down twelve
foot embankment at the overhead
bridge about one mile east of Alta.
AS soon as the word was received
here Operator ]. C. Taylor was tele-
graphed to by Operator Meyers of the
local N. P. Office and asked to 60 down
and investigate as it was thought
somebody might be injured or killed:
Mr.. Taylor went out to the place and
found a new Ford lying at the bottom
of the embankment in badly smash
ed up condition. There was nobody
in sight and apparently if anyone had
been hurt they had been taken away.
There were foot tracks around but
:! nothing to show who was the owner
! Of the car. Looking at it from the
I top of a twelve foot embankment it
hardly seemed possible that the car
could be tipped upside down without
l>anyone getting hurt. Perhaps we
shall be able 20 get particulars later.
! At this point where the bridge crosses
above the railroad track is a nasty,
sharp turn, and it might have hap
pened after dark.
After tie above was written we
thought we would call up the Medical
Block and see if we could get line
up on the accident and we did: 1t
seems that DR.. Lubbehusen had been
out to make professional call east
ct town and was accompanied by Mr..
Edwin Reinehr. It was almost mid
night when the accident happened and
|Dr. Lubbehusen was doing the drlv-
iag. He made that turn a little too
short and in less time than it takes
to tel Of it they were both lying un-
,, der the car at the bottom Ct the bank.
It seems that there is sort OF dip
there at the bottom and when the car
went over it fell so that the top and
I body of the car was raised and this
saved them from serious injury: Ihey
were enabled to crawl from under the
/. car and were scarcely hurt at an.
They got neighbor to bring them to
town. The windshield was smashed
and a few minor details around the
car were injured. They went out TINS
morning and turned the car right
side up, gave it crank and 1T ran
the same as ever. It was mlgnty
lucky outcome of what might have
been a serious if not fatal accident.

FINANCIAL ST !; E
MENT OF &TATE.

The cost Of running the state has
increased by leaps and bounds during
the Frazier administration in spite of
the fact that. two years ago Governor
Frazier made his campaign largely on
a platform of more economic adj
ministration of state affairs.
The following table will show the
amount Of payments from the general
fund Of the state for the first II
months of the three last fiscal years.
The payments from the general fund
represents expenditures by state de-
partments, officials and institutions:
From July 1st, 1915 to June 1st,
1916, 81, 1,936,866.
From July lst, 1916 to June 1st,
1917, scott, 200.
From July 1st, 1917 to June 1st,
1918, $2,aO0,837.
It will be seen that the Frazier ad-
ministration during the first II
months of the present fiscal year
spent $363,971 more out of the gen
eral fund than was spent during the
same period two years ago. This is
an increase of over $33 900 per month
and this is not the total increase, in
as much as large amounts were spent
out Of special funds.
The state board of equalization in
1917 levied the highest tax that the
state has ever been called on to pay,
making the total valuation for the
purpose of taxation $685., ,000, 900
which together with other sources Of
revenue, was estimated to yield the
sum Of about $2,558, 900, the amount
it was estimated, would be required to
run the state.
The fact that this amount was un-
der-estimated rather than over -esti-
mated can be proved by the fact that
not since 1911 has the general fund
been so low on June / as it is in 1918.
The following shows the balance in
the General fund on June l. of each
