the State commission, who said he
had been advised of the ruling by
Frank Bane, executive director of the
Social Security Board.
Mr.. league announced that post
masters had been instructed to bring
to the attention of the public the fact
that they will accept properly COM
pleted forms SS-5 from al employees
whether they have attained the age of
65 or not. It was made clear that this
registration is strictly voluntary as
far as the requirements of the social
security act are concerned.
The message advising Mr.. Price of
the new procedure for identifying en-
ployees who had not previously been
issued social security account num-
bers because of their age reads as
follows:
Post offices arc being instructed
to issue social security account num-
bers to employees aged 65 or over on
and after April 81. Application entire
~ voluntary from Federal viewpoint
You may, if necessary, and not earlier
than Tuesday, April 27, issue State
publicity, together with appropriate
RUE OF reputation making dpplICdIIOIl
compulsory under State, but not Fed
eral law"
Acting on the message, the North
Carolina commission, in meeting Mon
day, adopted a rule requiring that en-
ployers of the State apply to their
local post offices and secure these
special social security account num-
hers for all their employees who have
reached or passed the 65 age limit and
who do not have such numbers.
AS stated, this is entirely a State
number and the Post Office Depart
ment is cooperating in order that
numbers may be assigned to workers
IS years of age and over for purposes
of Identification only for the State I'M
employment compensation records.
Workers above that age limit do not
participate in the old-age benefits OF
the social security program, but II
they continue to work are included in
the provisions of the State unemploy-
ment compensation act.

Pea planting guide

EVEN A SIMPLE job like pea
planting can be greatly simplified
by the use of such a guide-board
as the one shown in the accom-
panying Garden-Graph. The board
is six inches wide. 20 inches long,
and the holes three-fourths inch
in diameter. The board thus holds
80 holes, two inches apart. Set
the board right in the trench as
you plant your peas. Thus the
peas are planted evenly and at a
distance, allowing the foliage Of
one row to shade the roots of the
next row, keeping the roots moist
and cool.
The smooth type of pea seed
should be used for early paintings,
since they are harder variety
than the wrinkled, and will not be
injured by frost. Peas should be
planted at least two inches deep in
heavy soils, and three inches deep
in light soil

fannie Acid Is Best
Treatment for Burns

dered olive oil from the dining car
to be used as a dressing for burns.
Good Treatment Then
That was good treatment in
those days, but she might better,
in the light of our present knoWl-
edge, have ordered tea that had
been boiled to be used, poured over
the burn and covered with sterile
dressing. If nothing else is avail
able, grease or fat or Oil gives a
considerable amount of comfort.
The fannie acid treatment for
burns, which is very widely used
today, was suggested first by Ed
ward c.. Davidson of Detroit in
1925. He found that fannie acid
forms more or less stable COM
pound with the protein constitu-
ents Of the body fluids and cells.
When a dilute solution of fannie
acid is applied to a burn surface,
it exerts it's astringent effect upon
the most superficial tissues, coag-
ulating them and thereby prevent
ing further penetration into the
deeper structures. The use Of tam
mic acid converts a burn in a
short time into what is practically
a sterile wound.
Burned patients, under fannie
acid, suffer less from toxennia and
are almost Immediately relieved Of
pain.
Tannic acid is a brownish pow
der, readily soluble in water, and
often is sprayed on the burn In the
form of an atomizer.
AS fannie acid is present In tea
leaves, this is the reason say a
boiled solution Of tea is the best
dressing that is available for do
nestle purposes until the doctor
arrives.

BEARTOOTH AREA
Best Fishing Section In
Montana Is Goal
Of Gun Club

Stocking of 65O,000 trout, 2OO,-
900 in 20 virgin lakes in Bear
tooth's plateau wilderness and
100000 in more accessible lakes
and streams of this area, has been
announced here by George L.
Throop, president of the Red
Lodge Rod and Gun club.
"0ur goal is to make the Bear
tooth mountain region the best
fishing section in Montana, and our
fish planting program is designed
to realize just that" Throop said.
The club is concentrating on
lakes in the wild, rugged waste
lands of the plateau, where, in
many instances, man has never set
foot.
It was planned to stock more
fish-less waters in this section than
the 20 taken care>of this year, but
time, finances and inaccessibility
of the wilderness were handicaps.
Trails had to be built so the pack
horses could negotiate the tire
some trek. All this took time and
money, and not a little hardship
on the part of those in charge.
Leo Spogen, secretary of the
club, was in charge of the actual
planting in the wild country. He
was assisted by M. E. Martin, M.
E. Martin, Jr., Bobby Martin,
Lloyd Thiel, Chet Castle, Ted
Wright and Ross Snyder, the lat
ter in charge of the Red Lodge
fish hatchery.
A. D. Whitcomb is chairman Of
the clubs fish planting committee.
eve will continue this work un-
til the lakes and streams are fair
ly teeming with fish," Throop stat
ed. @The Billings Rod and Gun
club helped make our activity pos
sible this year with a donation of
$3.50. :Montana's Fish and Game
commission also displayed splen-
did cooperation" He stated the
Billings club would be invited by
the local organization on a fishing
trip for albino trout in plateau
lakes, when the region becomes
open for travel next spring. He
said this would be in the early
part of July.
Next year Rock Creek will be
stocked with fish of from four to
seven inches. This was made pos
sible by payment of $50 by the
local sportsmen to provide food
for smaller fish, thus enabling
them to be held over for another
year. The money was paid to Mon
tanas, Inc. which in turn paid the
fund over to the fish and game |
commission, custodian of the plant
ing stock.
It is also considered likely that |
20, 600 of these larger fish will be
placed in Cooney DAM. Few were |
taken to the reservoir this year
because of scarcity of aquatic life.
It is believed another year will
find plenty Of natural food for the
fish.
Officers of the club, besides
Throop and Spogen, are Bill Cur
ran, vice president, and Joe Bailey.

WINTER WHEAT
ACREAGE c: IS CUT
AAA Officials Suggest A
Decrease Of 20
Percent

Winter Wheat producers and
other farmers who grow fall-sown
crops were advised by the Agricul-
tural Adjustment Administration
today to take account of the prob
able provisions of the 1888 Agri-
cultural Conservation Program in
making their plans for planting
this coming fall; this was releas-
ed by o. P. Roberts, Secretary of
the Carbon County Agricultural
Conservation Association. In anti
cipation of provision for soil-de-
pleting in the 1888 program lower
than the soil-depleting acreage in
1887, AAA officials suggested
seedlings of soil-depleting crops of
not to exceed 80 percent of the
1887 soil-depleting base acreages.
Wheat seedlings in the United
States for the 1887 crop were ap-
proximately 81 million acres and
with normal yields and abandon
ment would have produced $50 mill
lion bushels. Winter wheat farms
seeded 81 million acres for 1887,
as compared with average seed
ings during the period 1928-32 Of
45 million acres. ,ya,ss,a.sss
If wheat farmers seed as many
acres for 922 AS they seeded ia
1887 and obtain average or bet
ter yields, declines III wheat prices
are likely. These declines might be
sharp if there are average or above
average wheat yields in the United
States and other wheat producing
nations of the world.
