FLAMES IN FORESTS

Twenty-Mile Winds Fan Fires;
May be Running Wild by
Tonight, Is Threat

st. Paul. MIMI. Aug. 3.-E)-For-
est fires in Minnesota and Wisconsin
became more menacing today as q
to fan forest fires near Wabcno, Wis,
and lack Of rain.
Predictions that the fire in Super
Tor national forest would be running
wild" by tonight were made by E. w.
Tinker, Milwaukee. United States dis
trict forester.
A strong northwest wind threatened
to fan forest fires near Wabena. Wis.
beyond control. Rain which started
late yesterday stopped early In the
evening, the precipitation being neg
ligiblc.
In Superior national forest the
flames were somewhat checked this
morning because of q light rainfall.
but a 20 mile an hour northwest wind
offset this advantage.
Tinker, who came to Superior ma
tional forest yesterday to take charge
Of the situation, said the fires are the
most severe that have swept the for
est In the last Is years. He estimated
the flames have burned over an area
Of between 10000 and $4,000 acres OF
cutover timber land, mostly slashings.
Had sufficient rain fallen last night,
the army Of 1900 forest fire fighters
in the two states hoped to bring the
blaze under complete control.

checks found on Miller. On one
he used the name John Ford as
maker and Arthur Nicholas" as

washington, Aug. 3-tPD-The fed

day reiterated that 1t had made nc
forecast concerning a proper price
for wheat for this market year. and
said 1t did not propose to do 50.
The board said reports to 1t told
of terminals throughout the country
becoming ~overcrowded for the hand
ling OF wheat and described this as
unfortunate"
The statement follows:
1.-The federal farm board is being
besicged by telephone calls, tcle-
grams. and letters regarding the over
crowded terminals and transportation
facilities for the handling Of wheat.
This excessive crowding Of wheat in
to the market has created = lar
wider spread between cash wheat
prices and prices Of wheat sold tor
future delivery than usually exists.
The federal farm board has made
no statement or forecast whatso-
ever concerning a proper price for
wheat for this market year nor does
It propose to do 70. But. under con-
ditions which exist this season when
al reports agree on = substantial
reduction In the world supply as COM
pared with last year. 1t seems un-
fortunate to crowd wheat onto the
market faster than existing facilities
can handle 1t. resulting In cash prices
which are much lower than contract

dustry. has demonstrated its worth
in reducing losses. Experimental
work showed that it eliminated un-
de~rdcvclopcd pigs. that swine reached
market seven weeks earlier and that
nearly Is per cent more pigs were
marketed than under the old methods.
The system, with slight modifica-
ton. has been found valuable in the
control Of the kidney worm Of swine,
widely prevalent in the south. The
adults Of this worm live in the fatty
tissues surrounding the kidneys.
Before arriving at this location,
however, the embryo worms take an
extended tour throughout the body Of
the host, causing great damage.
Another parasite in swine is the
lungworm. Like the roundworm, it
attacks the young pigs at a time when
they are least able to withstand its
harmful effects. It results in coughs,
retarded development, permanent
stunning and even in death.
The thorny-headed worm, DR..
Wright said, also has defied practical
solution. The worm larvae cncyst in
white grubs which, when they develop
into beetles or in their grub form, are
eaten by the swine.
