COMPLETE FIGURES
STATE ASSESSMENT.
Agricultural Lands in Lead,
With Value of Is Million
Livestock Figures.

There are 1,600,212 acres of
agricultural land in the state of
Idaho, with a tax valuation of
$75,031, 750.50, according to a
compilation of assessors reports
made by George w. Lewis, state
budget officer. In addition to
the agricultural land there are
1,078,619 acres of irrigated land
assessed at $53,673,252. Dry
land is valued at more than $780,
100000. There are 1927, 1863
acres of this kind of land.
Timber land is assessed at
approximately $21,0OO,000 of
which there are 1,480,4 acres.
Five million acres of grazing
land carry an assessment of
$25 POI, OFT. There are more
than three times the acres of
grazing land than agricultural
land, but the assessed valuation
is only one-third as great.
Business lots and the improve
ments thereon total more than
$29,000,000 in valuation. The
lots themselves are valued at
S13,358,610 and the improve
ments carry approximately ST.
100000 more. Residence lots and
their improvements total almost
100000 in value. Residence
lots are valued at $19,165, 537
and their improvements at $780,
$4,000.

what is puzzling me is how they

is talking about so that with his
reports there are 332215 bulls

the various moving parts with
wire connections to a common
grounding wire, which it at
tached to a rod which is driven
two or three feet in moistened
earth. The connections with
the cylinder and blower fan
shafts should be made with a
copper strip so fastened and adj
justed that it will bear on a dry
clean part of the shaft, and the
grounding wire firmly fasten-
ed to it. The correct way to
make wire joints is with solder,
and in making connections with
shakers the connection should be
made with the metal parts, or
pan, and be with flexible wire
loose enough so twill not break
from the motion of the machine.
1t is probable that striking
cylinder and concave teeth do
under favorable conditions create
sparkle hot enough to ignite dust.
The cylinder and concave teeth
should be kept in proper align
ment at all times so they will not
interfere. If they are heard to
be knocking the machine should
be stopped Immediately, and
they should be Strengthened up
and frightened.
1t is possible to extinguish the
fire from explosion or any other
cause within the separator if
sufficient water can be sprayed

blowing it out will keep it thin

The other safeguard is the re-
moval of spark, flame, or heat
that ignites the dust.
Investigation has proven that
about half of the dust explosions
are started by discharges of
static electricity. This static or
FRACTIONAL electricity is generated
by friction of the grain and
straw on the moving parts of
the separator. 1t can be removed
to a large extent by connecting
