be demonstrated that by applying
electric energy to all farm operations
in which electricity can be OF service
and to all possible duties In the farm
household, the use OF electric current
Will be so great that the power com
pany vii! find IT profitable TO make
the rates low. Otherwise. as already
stated. the number Of customers per
mile OF transmission line is so small
in the country. as compared to the
city, that the expense. and hence the
rates. are much greater.
Solution Rests With Farmer
This puts the whole matter upon
the shoulders Of each individual farm
err Contrary TO what the farmer
might suppose, the more electricity he
uses the cheaper he gets it-provided
that every other farmer follows the
same procedure. While it might cost
every farmer in a given territory 25
cents a killowatt hour for electricity
II each OF them used the electricity
merely for electric. lights in the farm
house and the barn because of the
expense of building and maintaining
the transmission line with only three
customers per mile. compared to ten
times that number in the city, II
might cost ZACH farmer only 10 cents

SHEEP
VERY RARE SPECIE

An Alaskan hunter, named Leach,
describes the habits of the Ski-Horn-
ed Mountain Sheep, q very rare specie
inhabiting the mountain fastness of
the Arctic and Northern Alaska He
says:
ANYONE who has never seen this
strange beast will say, There amt no
such animal As ! am probably the
only mar that has ever viewed this
quadruped at close range, you "a see
readily that ! face some difficulty in
convincing naturalists of the genuine
ness of my discovery.
Skiing to the Bar
ain the old bonanza days | heard a
number of prospectors, just in from
remote Arctic wastes, that they
had seer sheep flying through the air
with their own eyes. OF course, the
story appeared p~reposterous. That
was when Alaska was wide open and l
made allowances, especially since they
hesitated to tell of the sight until
they had made several visits to the
bar. ! am now convinced hat they
were partly right. They had seen
ski-horned mountain sheep engaged
in play.
81 saw my first sheep Of this species
on April l., last year. This date will
also prove an obstacle in convincing
scientific men of my discovery. l was
crossing the Skookum Charley Range
in the Upper Porcupine district when
! saw tracks of a mountain sheep.
Reaching the summit, l came upon an
animal by surprise. The body was
that of a mountain sheep, but the
horns, instead of curling upward
curved downward, almost I the ami
mails feet and extended for quite a
distance straight toward the hind legs.
Baa-a-ai Two Baa-a-as
1.-THE horns, instead of being cir
cular, happened to be flat. While l
was wondering how the animal could
get about with these awkward access
quick as a flash, got on his knees,
doubling up his legs and resting them
on the upper side of the horns. With
a triumphant 'ba-a' the sheep then
started skiing down the mountain
side. At the foot of the hill was a
hummock. The sheep struck this, shot
800 feet in the aid, and landed two
thirds up the side of another hill. He
quickly stepped off his skis, turned
around and gazed at me. ! could
family hear his haunting 'ba-a.'
81 started after him. When / had
reached the floor of the valley he
skiied again, and catapulted through
the air 200 or 800 feet above. l fired
as he flew through the air, but missed
l finally decided he was playing with
me and gave up the quest. l saw only
one other, and that vas at a distance
of more than a mile.
What do these strange beasts do
in the summer when there is no snow?
Their ski-horns make them walk
slowly and awkwardlly, and they
would be easy prey. Not having ever
seer or heard of one being seen in the
summer, ! am convinced that they hi
bernate during that seaso of the
year"

Electric Lights on Farm Not Enough
so far as expense is concerned. IL
armers use 1t Tor as many operations
on he farm as possible. instead of
merely having electric lights or cleo.

This point has been emphasized
with the utmost earnestness by those
seeking to make electric energy avail
able for the farms of America through
the transmission lines OF the power
companies. The interested agencies
are several. They include the Ma

Squirrel-Sportsmen
Must Obey Oct. | Law,
Commissioner Warns

Game wardens in Georgia have
been instructed to arrest any person
with squirrel in his possession be.
fore October l, when the squirrel
hunting season opens, Peter S. Twitty
state game and fish commissioner,
announced Thursday.
1--WE have been receiving COM
plants from all over the state to the
effect that hunters are already in
the woods shooting squirrels, or pre-
tending to shoot squirrels and actu-
ally hunting other forbidden game,
Mr.. Twtty said "To stop this prac-
tice, l have instructed the game
wardens to arrest any person found
with a squirrel in his possession be-
fore the season opens on October l.
This department is determined that
the game laws shall be enforced this
season more vigorously than ever
before, and we will not tolerate the
shooting of squirrels Or any other
game out Of season"
In a letter sent to all county ward
ems, Commissioner Twitty assured
them that the department would
back them with all its power in the
conviction of game law violatorS, and
he has called upon the newspapers
of the state to give his instructions
publicity.
