Reports Tell
Loss By Hail

Reports reaching Laurel late
Wednesday afternoon and in the
evening disclosed that a number
of districts in the surrounding
territory had suffered extensive
losses of grain crops by hail in
a short space of time. The re-
ports were meager of details, but
indicated the damage was both
north and south of Laurel. As
usual the storms travelled in
streaks.
The first reports we're from
south of the Yellowstone river,
telling of 100 per cent losses of
grain in some sections and in
volving the non-irrigated high
lands as well as portions of the
Clarks Fork valley.
Other reports indicated losses
north of Laurel.
Much of the wheat in this ter
is ripe for harvesting by
combines.

FIRE DESTROYS
WHEEL PLANT At
N. P. CAR SHOPS
Firemen Prevent Spread OF
Flames To Other Proper
~ties-Machinery Lost

Fire of undetermined origin de-
stroyed the wheel shop at the
Northern Pacific car shops east
of Laurel Friday. The fire was
discovered by the night watch
man at 1925 p. m. as he made
his regular round. When he
opened the door of the wheel
shop, a smoke explosion filled
the building with flame. The
Waterman Immediately turned in
an alarm, but the structure was
beyond saving when fire fighting
forces arrived. The firemen did
a good job, states G. p. Lindhal,
car shop foreman, in preventing
the spread of the blaze to other
nearby structures.
The wheel shop, a o~ne-story
frame structure, was built 25
years ago and has had frequent
additions since then to eco
modate new machinery. The ma
chinery destroyed is said to have
constituted the greatest loss in
the fire.
The Northern Pacific has not
yet announced its plans concern
ing the reconstruction of the
shop, Lindhal says. 1t is as yet
undetermined when or where it's
shop will be reconstructed.
The shop, which employed IL
men, provided car wheels for the
area of the Northern
Pacific railway. Services there
involved inspection and process
ing. The processing procedures
included pressing wheels on and
off their axles, reboring wheels,
down wheels and axles
and other necessary operations.

State Executive
Urges Observance
Farm Safety Week

Bozeman, July 27.-With ma
tional farm safety week being OBJ
served this week July "a to 30)
throughout the nation, j. C.
Taylor, chairman of the farm
safety committee of the Montana
extension service, warned of the
increase in hazards during the
harvest season.
Records of the national safety
council, he said, show that acct
dents to farm people reach their
peak during the harvest season.
When machinery with sharp cut
ting mechanism high speed, shaft
ing, betting and gears is used
during the busy harvest season,
the chances of accidents mount.
Inspection and repair is the
first precaution for safe opera
ton of harvesting machinery, he
said. All shields and other safe
guards should be in place before
the machine is taken to the field.
However, he emphasized, one of
the chief causes of operating mis-
haps is failure to stop machinery
before oiling, adjusting Or In
clogging it. Loose or floppy
clothing which catch easily in
revolving parts is another hazard
that may be avoided by wearing
clothing which fits closely at
ankles and wrists.
Taking a few precautions ahead
of harvest time may we'll pay
dividends in an accident-free
harvest season.

at Laurel of two tracts of land
north of the city limits, one, 10
acres, the other 20 acres, which
would be donated by the owner,
DR.. ID. H. McCauley. The small
tract is bounded on the east by
Fifth avenue, and on the west by
sixth avenue; the large tract ex-
tends from Sixth avenue to
Eighth avenue. Both tracts are
bounded by Sixth and Twelfth
streets. In addition to the land
offered, the city has agreed to
furnish sewer and water connec-
tons at cost.
The purpose of the home, as
defined by Governor Bonner, is
tc provide for the care of senile
aged for whom no other care
il available. Under the existing
arrangement, such persons must
be declared insane and sent to
Warm Springs. By constructing
this new home, the state will be
able to provide the care such
senile persons need in a more
suitable environment.
The new home, for which the
Legislature has appropriated $780,
600, is expected to be adequate
for many years to come, said
Bonner. He explained that the
home would have no farm or hos
pital in connection with it and
would consist of a series of cot
tages. Medical care for the per-
sons there would be provided by
resident physicians.
The legislature has established
series of safeguards whereby
the state is not to be burdened
with the care of all aged persons,
but only with those who cannot
be cared for in their own homes,
OF in the homes of members of
their families. The governor pre-
dicted that in the future there
will be worked out an agreement
between state and countie S
already maintain homes for
the aged whereby all such persons
now in county homes will be
transferred to the state home. /
After leaving Laurel, the gov
ernor and secretary of state, ac-
companied by their driver, high
way patrolman Lyons, went on to
proposed sites at Joliet
and Lewistown. Before complet-
.ng their tour, they will also
nave inspected a number of other
sites.
