PROTECT YOUR HOME

The most dangerous place you can be in the
ordinary course of existence is in an automo-
bile The second most dangerous place is in
your home.
These deductions are made from figures re-
Gently released by the National Safety Council,
covering the accident record during 1885, when
accidents caused more than 100000 deaths. Auto
mobiles accounted for 81, 600 of the total-an all
time high record-and home accidents for
around 81 1000
It is sad commentary on the habits of the
American people that easily avoidable home ac
cidentS cause more injuries and deaths than in
dustrial accidents The average American in
dustry has made astonishing strides in reducing
both the frequency and severity of accidents.
Part of this achievement followed better guard
ing of machinery. But the most important cause
of the reduction was the installation of phi
losophy of carefulness in the workmen.
At home and on the road, the man who
wouldn't think of taking a chance at his work
apparently feels free of such Exhibitions. The
driving errors that cause motor accidents are
we'll known. Not so we'll known are the principal
causes of home accidents Falling out of win
dows, slipping in the bathtub falling downstairs,
tampering with electrical equipment these are
sources of thousands of deaths and injuries each
year.
These figures should make you think-and
think more than once. The hospital and the
morgue await those who are thoughtless care
less and reckless.

AS milk prices rise at the local cheese factory,
we learn that many farmers in the county are
getting as high as fifty and six dollars month
from their milk and several are getting as high
as seventy-five and one hundred dollars. When
we can get that much money with as little work
in comparison with other ways to earn money
1t behooves us to keep ourselves informed on
the many ways to enlarge on milk production
and to study better feeding methods during the
winter months when the supply of the necessary
green food is scarce
Ashe county has so few industries where
farmers can get source of livelihood that the
work going on at the local cheese factory is de-
serving of the interest and support of all the
citizens whether they are actual patrons of the
plant or not.

son it has been in the past fifty years, local
farmers should begin to realize that their corn
crops mean real money to them and bend every
effort toward giving these crops the best Of
attention during the remainder of the growing
season.
And after the growing season is over, care
should be taken in harvesting and garnering the
crop along with all other feed stuffs for stock
that is needed so sorely during the long winter
months. If the prices are high for corn-as they
assuredly will bet is temptation to sell it,
but farmers should be sure they have enough
feed before they let it CO. When they re-buy in
the spring they will more than likely find that
all the profits they expected to make will be
completely swallowed up in the extremely high
price corn will be bringing. Furthermore there
is prospect of the supply being SO exhausted
that it cannot be bought regardless of price.
Farmers with good corn crops have veritable
gold mines this year and they should be regard

The term Roosevelt Luck" which anguish
last winter but revived vigorously after that
successful Philadelphia convention, is being
quite generally applied to those circumstances
over-which- there-is-no-control, such as the
Spanish Revolution breaking on the very day
of the Republican acceptance speech and crowd
ing Governor Landon on the front page-and
later the elements combined to break with such
storm as to ruin radio reception of his address.
:. Not to be termed exactly luck but certain
ly favorable, is the report of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States on the improved
state of the nations business. The report shows
how finance, commerce, and industry have
climbed back to prosperity and predictions are
that 1886 will be the record year of them all.
Joseph p Kennedy, former chairman of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, is of the
opinion that normal reaction" will create a
"real problem about 1886 or 1899.

The startling news of the death of Bernard Kelly, who formerly operated the Alaska Hotel before the fire of 1894, was revealed last night when his body was found lying partly in the water of Ber- ing Sea at Cape Nome.
 Steve Pedersen, a native boy was returning along the coast in his small boat and saw dark object lying on the beach. Upon drawing near he saw a body. Noticing an automobile moving along the road the native boy beached his boat near the body and ran to intercept it.
 Supt Ross J. Kinney of the AL aska Road Commission was in- speeting the road near the Cape and it was he whom the boy stop- ped. Together they went down to the beach, looked at the body and then decided to go to the Cape Nome Roadhousc and tele- phone the federal authorities al Nome

Townsend Denied Charges Made Against Plan
Encouraging News Received Nome By Postmaster C. Mish

Postmaster Guy Mish of the Nome postoffice who is in receipt of several telegrams and a recent letter from P. L. Neil Postal h. spector for Alaska, from Seattle, said today it seemed very favor able that the Nome Federal build ing would probably be built this summer and furniture, etc, ship ped to Nome on the last boat.
 His statement was based on a letter which arrived yesterday from MT. Neil, under whose au- thority the furnishing of the new Federal building will be carried out. MT. Neil. who had planned on visiting Nome within the next week notified Postmaster Mish by telegram that his visit had been postponed.
 He had requested MT. Mish to assemble all lists of furniture re- quired in the new Federal Build ing and that furniture which was already on hand so that the full requirement would be known, & the government supply same.
 The lists have been prepared  and mailed to MT. Neil who wrote that it was imperative that these lists, and the information request ed be in his hands as soon as pos sible, as the government definite ly planned on the construction of the Federal Building at Nome this summer, and it would be nee essary to have the furnishing re- quirements of all federal actiVi- ties so that the supplies could be shipped to Nome not later than the last boat this fall.
 While it has been generally ac- cepted here that the new Federal Building for Nome was a certain item, no previous information has been as encouraging as the recent letter written by MT. Neil and received yesterday by Nome's Postmaster, Guy Mish.
 As was brought out at the Chamber luncheon yesterday. while Dr. Gruening was in Nome. the need of a new building to house federal activities here is extremely serious. The present offices maintained by some fed eral agencies in the old and dilap- dated Pioneer building are entire ly inadequate and present ser ious danger of fire. The records gathered by these offices are not housed as safely as should be.
