INFLUENZA DEATHS
REACH TOTAL OF 9

Fatalities resulting from influenza
in Great Falls during March reached
total of nine Monday. Four of these
deaths were those of Great Falls resi-
dents; the remainder were those Of
persons in other parts Of the county.
number Of deaths that were caused
BY pneumonia have also been listed.
In instances where pneumonia only has
been given as the cause of death it is
impossible to tell whether influenza
was present, it was stated by health
authorities.
The state department of health has
made rule that a combination of dis
eases may not be given as the cause
of death. In this way if influenza
were followed bv penumonia, the for
mer must be given as the cause of
death. Where this rule is not followed
either Influenza or penumonia may be
listed singly and it cannot be deter
mined whether either was an accom-
panying cause.
Health officials expressed the opin-
ion that the epidemic is passing. Dipb-
liberia cases continue to be reported.
though they show no increase over
those recorded for last month. Scar
let fever, which was prevalent in some
districts, has practically died out.

John wanamakors Passing

The recent death of John Wana.
maker takes away Il great and good
man, who was prominent in the
political. religious and business life
of the East and of the nation. Mr..
Wanamaker was well known to the
Newspaper fraternity, for he was Il

He built up a marvellous business
in two eastern cities and his success
was due, as he believed, to the pub,

that his greatest business rival in

row grow wheat. Only corn and
hay now exceed the bread crop IN
acreage occupied ard normally only
these two crops and cotton, exceed
1t in value. This country has eX-
ported surplus of wheat every
year in its history since colonial
times. with the exception of 1886,
besides keeping pace with an ever
increasing demand at home. Dur
ing the past 20 years the volume OF
exports has been decreasing, except
under artificial stimulation of the
recent war period. Production has
not been increasing as rapidly as
population and the point Is being
approached when we shall consume

THE FARMERS PROBLEMS
: AND HOW TO MEET THEM

ture. Our business, our funrc
growth. our school, churches. ana
indeed our very existence i.a n city
depends on the farmer. He might
get along without us; we cannot
get along without HIM The broad
irrigated acres to the north and the
vast. but arabic. drylands to the
south, are even more essential to us
than Our streets. schools and busi-
ness houses are.
1t behOoves ia therefore, to think
of the farmers needs The prob
lens that have troubled the agri
culturists In this and other states
are mainly three: the problems Of
transportation, of taxation and of
speculation.
The problem OF transportation
has seeraei more recently the more
acute yet 1t Is not, probably, the
lEost serious. j. r. Howard, presl
dent of the American Far mBuranu
Presents these figures. The totm
annual income of farmers is Si0.-

tion 81 l23,G600o9, making ihe far

er states that the farmers pay 20
per cent of all freight rates. In
that case only percent OF the far
mers total expenditures is for trans
portatiOn. If that is tr;le then
transportation is not the most ser.
f0us drain on the farmer. Nor
does the burden snch ms il is. seem
capable OF being lightanel. Fi'ip
railroads claimed they earned cnly
3 1-3 per cent in 1921. far shora OF
the 3-4 per cent recognized az iegi,
mate by the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
More serious than the freight
rate, has been till recently the lack
of ears to move the crop. JuliusE

to move wheat promptly to the sea
board. but he declared This is due
to an overrigid policy of regulation
of our railroads in the last ten
years. The earning power of our
railroads has been destroyed and
their credit undermined so they
cannot maintain their equipment,
and keep 1t up to the expansion OF
this country. An adequate return
must be allowed them to enable
them to expand their facilities 1t
might have been added that the
wages demanded by the workmen
chat seem pretty high to a farmer,
adds to the bufden to be borne
both by the railroad and by the
farmer to whom it is passed along,
So there seems little relief in sight
from that quarter. GOv.-elect Sweet
has offered the remedy of store
houses for the farmer. What relief
may be available here only time
will tell. Evidently the farmers OF
Colorado want to give ii trial.

BATTERY CIRCUITS
Lesson No. "a


In general a cell is a single unit
used as a source of electrical en-
ergv. while a battery is two or more
cells connected together in any OF
three ways. The three methods OF
connecting cells together are IN
serious" in parallel" and in
combination of these two ways
known as the "series multiple u
"series parallel" connection. The
way in which the cells are connected
in any particular circuit depends
upon the voltage or current desire
for operating the apparatus in the
circuit.
The average voltage of the ordi-
nary cell Of carbin-zinc type IS
about one and one-half volts per
cell, and it makes no difference how
large this cell may be built the po-
tentials across the two terminals
will not be more than this amount.
Similarly the lead acid type of stor-
age cell has a terminal voltage of
aobut two volts which is also indie
pendent of the size of the cell.
1t is necessary Therefore to resort
TO some other method than merely
constructing q large cell in order to
secure a voltage higher than may
be secured with a small cell. The
SERIOUS" method of connecting cells
accomplshes this purpose. For the
votages of the individual cells ad-
ded together gives the vol
tage of the group for eX-
ample % ID volt, "B" or plate
battery for vacuum tube work has
Is small dry cells connected ir Sc
ries. Also the filament which re-
quires a source of six volts is cup
piled ordinarily by a storage bat
terry made up of three cells connect
ed in series, each cell having a vol
tage of about two volts.
While the series connection gives
a voltage higher than the voltage Of
a single cell the current output of
each cell remains the same as in q
circuit where the current is the
same and furnished by single cell.
In order to get greater current
than we can secure with the series
combination or the single cell we
must employ the parallel" connec-
ton. BY using this arrangement the
current output of two cells in par
allel is equal to the sum of the out
put of each cell but the voltage for
the combination is the same as the
voltage of the single cell. There
fore if 100 dry cells were connected
in series the voltage would be
