Lewis Grain Letter.

The government report showing re
serves of wheat and corn still in
farmers hands on March 1 was isued
today. Wheat was given as 1853 ,OOO,-
600 bushels and corn 1,O87, 900 900.
These figures coincide very closely
to the estimate made earlier in the
week by 3. w. Snow, wheat being ex-
actly the same amount, and corn 49,
100000 bushels less.
On the whole, we do not regard the
report as being particularly bearish
on United States supplies. Corn is
largely a commodity that is consumed
IN this country, and We do not believe
that the reserves of corn, which are
somewhat higher than usuar, VIII De
any more than is needed for the IN
creased cattle and hog supply. Tho
reserves of wheat are 10, O00, 900
bushels less than the last five-year
average, and are about an average
crop for the last ten years, including
war times. 1t is quite noticeable that
wheat reserves are no larger nov
than they were 20 years ago. OF
course, our population has greatly in
creased, which under normal condi-
tions should require a larger reserve
kept in this country all of the time
There is so little trade in the marke;
these days that the report may prob
ably not have very much effect upor
the market. 1t might have the effeet
of stimulating foreign interests who
have been looking to this Country fol
a portion of their supplies, but we d.
not expect any unusual buying o.
selling orders to enter the marker
because of the report itself.
From now on the interest of tn,
trade will be conferred more abou'
the spring wheat seeding. Quite al
effort is being made on the part O
some people to induce farmers to SOW
other crops in place of wheat. Johi
r. Mitchell, Of the federal reserw
board, advocates seeding one milfia,
acres to flax rather than to wheat
1t is our belief that it is only in {;
decreased crop in this country cha
we will be able 10 obtain permanently
higher prices, and Mr.. Mitchell sug
gestion is one that should be givsl
considerable thought. ay

Gasoline l. so much more danger
Gus than dynamite, its vapors being
invisible and so very light they float
around from place to place and are at
any time liable to come in contact
with sparks or flame, thus causing
an explosion and fire." Chief Stevens
continues in his letter.
"We are learning more each day
about static electricity, and it is my
opinion that this, coming in contact
with gasoline vapors, causes the
greater part of our trouble" the fire
chief continues, referring to the in
spection of fire hazards. "I have
stated many times in my lectures that
in no other city throughout the Unit
ed States, which l have visited, have
found static electrity so pronounced
as in Anaconda, Montana. During
certain periods of the year, / am con-
fident that the least friction would
create static and if gasoline vapors
are present, an explosion is almost
inevitable.
''In no case should gasoline be used
for cleaning purposes inside a build
ing, and never should silks or wool
ems be washed in gasoline, either in
side or outside the house. Personally
| do not"approve of the use of gaso-
line for cleaning purposes under any
circumstances.
Another thing that has given us
great concern is the static electricity
created by the flow of gasoline
through the filling pipe from service
station pumps into tanks of automo-
biles. When the nozzle of such fill
ing pipe is in contact with the metal
of the tank, causing direct connection,
it is customary for the owner OF
driver of the automobile to lift the
hose for the purpose of a.certaining
if the gasoline is flowing, or if the
tank is about filled. In doing so the
connection is broken, and with static
electricity present together with the
right atmospheric conditions, disaster
is certain to follow. This is the an
swer to many of our questionable
fires which have occurred at garages
or filling stations. / was of the opin.
ion that careless smoking mad cause
the explosions, although those pres
ent at the time were emphatic in Their
denial.
Il trust that you will bring thi,
matter forcibly before your people il
order that fires originating from
such will be prevented in tn
future"

NONTANANS Warned
TO WATCH GASOLINE

"The question of handling gasoline
Is becoming a serious one, not alone
in Montana but throughout the entire
country. 1t is a most serious queS-
ton for two reasons; first, because
there is so much gasoline used by the
public today, especially for motor We
hicles, which means that we find it
m nearly every building we enter, and
second, because people do not realize
!he hazard connected with gasoline"
writes Jay w. Stevens, of San Fran
ri.co, chief of the bureau OF fire pre-
Yention for the National Board Of
Fire Underwriters Of New York, to
State Auditor George P. Porter, state
fire marshal, ex-officio.
Chief Stevens is well known in
Montana, having been in the state on
three occasions at the instance of
State Auditor Porter to deliver lect-
1res on fire prevention. This letter
was written Auditor Porter following
she report of the death Of a very
highly esteemed woman Of Anaconda
who lost her life through the ignition
Of gasoline in her home, and Of an
sther woman in Montana who was
seriously injured in the same manner.

NO MORAL RESPONSIBILITY.

Mr.. Lloyd George says the United
States has the same moral RESPONSE
bility in the Ruhr crisis as it had in
the war, and should join England "a
finding a solution of the problem. The
former British premier suffers from
the same illusion that has misled not
only others Of his countrymen. but
many Americans as well. They thinL
that this country entered the war to
vindicate some moral principle-as q
general protest against the miIitar-
ism of Germany. The fact is that
America took up arms in defense Of
its rights on the high seas, which had
been invaded by Germany. German
militarism was demonstrated in It's
most frightfui form for two and a
half years before the United States
entered the conflict. The moral re-
sponSibility, Il any existed, was pres
ent during that period, but the Unit
ed States was not provoked to wac
until its W rights had been flag
rantly violated. This country did
not fight to discharge a moral re-
sponsibility then, ans It is not now
going to assume a moral responsible
ty that Mr.. Lloyd George fancies ex
lists.

MANY BREEDERS OF
POLAND China HOGS

Every one of the SO bred sows
sold In the Montana Poland-Ch China
Breeders consignment sale held at
Billings on Washington's birthday
went to men who were buying for a
start or for herd Improvement" says
Prof W. f. Joseph, of the Montana
experiment station at Bohemian.
He says that the fact that the ma
jor portion of the sows were bought
by new men is an encouraging indi-
cation of more and better hogs for
Montana. Twenty buyers from diff
ferent localities, mostly in the terri
tory tributary to Billings, bought the
offerings. The top price was $6e,
paid for a spring gilt, and the aver.
age was about $40 for the consign-
ment.
+. w. Coombs, a red hog breeder Of
Laurel, Montana, says: "What Mon
tana wants is a more stable market
for grain, and the hog will help to
stabilize the price"
The Montana State Fair board has
contracted with the Poland-C China
breed organization for a futurity
show which offers $1,000 in award
money. According to B. F. Moore,
secretary, the fair board is only OBJ
ligated for one-half of the purse, as
the other party agrees to guarantee
the same.
As the futurity provides for the
exhibiting of filters of four pigs n
the junior and senior classes, large
numbers of hogs are induced to the
fair, and stronger competition is pro-
vlded for the open class money.
The 1922 futurity demonstrated tn
fact that Montana has as good swine
as can be found in the northwest.
Hugh Walter, of Townsend, took an
exhibit of Poland hinas, upon which
ne won most of the firsts at the Mon.
tana State Fair, to the 1922 Pacific
international Stock Show at Port
land, and won the grand champion
chip award on siws.
The most practical object lesson in
economical pork production of a de-
cade was the Ton Litter Club pro.
Jected in Indiana last year. Of the
555 farmers who attempted to raise
a ton of pork from one litter in SIX
months, 81 succeeded. Not a "scrub'
litter made the goal. A litter of big
type black hogs topped the list witt
S,O40 pounds of jerk in 100 days.

station at Bozeman.

POULTRY PROBLEMS
IN MARCH WEATHER
(By Francis H. Brent. Jr.l

Wy GAdA~Ao IL OASnb, JE.J |
If artificial lights have been used
during the winter, it would be best
to discontinue their use now. The
days are getting longer, and too much
forcing of the flock will result in the
impaired health. of the fowls.
You are likely to find that your
birds will lay some soft-sheIled eggs
at this time. This is due either to an
over7fat condition, or to heavy produc-
ton through the winter. See that the
birds are supplied with plenty of
oyster shell and, if necessary, feed a
little graduated bone or bone meal IN
the mash. Also see that the birds
have plenty of exercise to keep down
the fat.
Letting the hens, run will probably
not help the egg production to any
great extent, if they are getting
plenty of exercise in the house. How
ever, if you have a house that is not
well ventilated, or the birds are not
getting the necessary exercise, it is
all right to let them out on pleasant
days. This will, in fact, very likely
show good results. On the other
hand, if you let your birds run on
stormy, damp, dreary days, you will
also get resultz-but they win be the
kind that you are not looking for, and
do not want.

duction and low prices. Try putting

prices are high and production low.
Although not quite as good as fresh
eggs, they are far better than some
store eggs, and very good for cook
ing purposes.
This is a good month to set any
broody hens that you may have. Put
them in a pen, or house, by them
selves, where other fowls will not dis
turb them, and set the nests in a
sheltered position. A piece of fresh
cut sod placed in the bottom of the
nest adds a bit to the moisture.

Oats, barley, rye, corn and hay are
grown chiefly for local consumption
IN Montana. The 1922 crops were
good ones, while at the same time
shipments of livestock last fall were
heavy, and the past winter has not
been severe enough to make heavy de-
mands upon the feed supply. So
farmers and stockmen of the state
generally have on hand a good supply
of feed.
Potatoes.-A special report on DO.
