MORE WHEAT TO
BE PLANTED

Total paintings of principal
crops in Montana this season
is expected to be larger than
in 1916, the Bureau of Agricult-
ural Economics reports.
Should farmers carry out
the plans expressed on March
l, larger acreages of spring
wheat, oats, flax and dry
beans will be planted. With
the exception Of sugar beets
and potatoes in the same COM
mercial areas, the supply of
labor should he adequate for
the seasons operations. The
labor situation for harvesting
beets will be alleviated to some
extent by the use Of mechan-
ical harvestens.
As a general rule, other farm
machinery was adequate in
1916 and it is believed that
with replacement of parts and
repair of old machinery, along
with new machinery that can
be purchased, farm operators
this year will be able to work
without much difficulty
Prospective planting of g.
$4,000 acres of all spring
wheat are indicated as of Mar.

Chairman Clyde B. Aitchison OF

shippers, who are opposing the pro-
posed increases will be heard to-
morrow.
The nations carriers are seeking
increases which would average
about 81 per cent. The present
proceedings, however, are restricted
to consideration of the request for
an immediate 10 per cent portion
of the overall rate boost.
Mr.. Franklin. regarded as one OF
the carriers chief witnesses, under
went a barrage of questions from
the long row of attorneys represent
ing shippers. the Agriculture De-
partment and others. The questions
and answers dealt with the highly
technical and complicated pro-
cedures of rate making and OF rail-
road cost determination.
Higher Costs Cited.
Repeatedly the Pennsylvania
vice president declared the roads
have been forced to ask for the rate
increase because of increased labor
and material costs.

proposed increase.
Mr.. Woodruff said the carriers
need the higher rates so that they
can be assured of "a fair living
wage" He said that in 1916 the

ACCIDENTS
PREVENTABLE
Delaware Safety Council Stat
es That Now Is the Time
For Prevention
RECORDS DISCLOSED

The Delaware Safety Council
asks the following pertinent ques-
ton: "Are you prepared to keep
accidents out of your home 2"
Based on recent records, an aver
age of one person dies every 16
minutes as a result of home ac-
cident. In addition, one person is
permanently disabled every four
minutes and someone is temporar-
lily disable every seven seconds.
Nearly all home accidents can
be prevented. Parents and adults
in every home have the responsible
ity to see that safe conditions are
provided and maintained and that
safe practices are followed.
The time to prevent an accident
is NOW-before it happens.
Can you answer yes to the fol-
lowing salient points:
1. Do you own and use a ladder,
stool, or other sturdy support when
reaching high places about the
home?
2. Do you have a fiashlight and
'first-aid" tool kit containing a
good hammer, screwdriver, pleirs,
and other necessary tools? Are
they located where you can always
find them?
8. Are inside and outside stairs
in proper condition, or does a tread
need replacing or a railing need
Tightening or repairing?
4. Are the floors clear of such
hazards as holes, protruding nails,
splinters, and loose boards?
5. Are screens strong and Sc
curely fastened to prevent an ac-
cidental fall from the window?
6. Are there any frayed electric
cords or loose electric plugs or
switches in your home which might
cause a fire or serious shock?
Z. Have your electrical applianc-
es-washing machines, heaters,
fans, toasters, irons, heating pads,
and the like-been checked recent
ly to make sure there are no loose
connections or short circuits?
s. Have gas pipes and gas equip
ment been inspected and repaired
to prevent leaks which might cause
asphyxiation or explosion?
9. Have chimney fiues and heat
ing equipment been cleaned? If
your furnace has ben converted to
use a different type of fuel, has it
been checked carefully by a COM
petent person?
10. Do you have recommended
fire-fghting equipment? Is it in
good condition and available for
quick use?
