Horse power, has worked out a form
ula for giving Montana primary"
benefits referred to in the act. That
formula provides that the amount of
power generated at the Hungry Horse
plant during the drawdown season of
critical year, or one-half of the
total power developed at Hungry
Horse and at downstream plants
from Hungry Horse storage, which
ever is less, will be made available
for sale in Montana.
Such an amount of power obvious
ly meets geographical preference re-
quirements of the Hungry Horse act.
On the basis Of this formula, the
amount of power to be reserved for
use in Montana will be approximate
ly 10000 kilowatts. This is con-
siderably in excess of power that
would be available to Montana if the
project were operated on an isolated
basis. Firm power from the project
operated isolated would be 10000
kilowatts.
Of the 10000 kilowatts allocated
for the primary benefits of Montana,
the following amounts have been
POWER COMMITMENTS
1. $4,000 kilowatts of firm power

I attended the most interesting
club meeting the other day -a and
came away with so many new ideas
for my home, that I'd like to tell
you about it. The entire program
was completely fascinating 1.-THE
Story of Glass and Home Decorat-
ing which our chairman, and a
group of six members whom she had
selected, presented following a COM
plete program guide furnished by
the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Cone
pany.
The afternoon just few by as
our members told us the complete
history Of glass from its first dis
covery by a group of Phoenician
sailors up to its many uses today.
One very interesting part Of the pro-.
gram was the presentation Of three
beautiful full colored wall charts
showing how glass can be used for
decorating in today's home. These,
too, were part of the material furn-
ished by the Pittsburgh Plate Glass
Company and prepared by Theresa
Booth Wells, the noted club auth
ority.
All Of US were especially eager to
get decorating suggestions for our
own homes - and were certainly not
disappointed-for the members who
participated in the program showed
US 1O1 ways in which glass can be
used to make our homes more con.
venient, as well as more beautiful.
I'm chairman Of another club
meeting scheduled soon for ! diff
ferent group of women, and I'm
planning to obtain this same ma
terial to present to this group. The
program chairman told me that the
material furnished by Pittsburgh
Plate included everything from
newspaper notices to printed book
lets. And that certainly simpifes

members interested during an after

MODERN ETIQUETTE

@. If riding in someone else's
car and he stops for refreshments,
whose place is it to pay the bill?
A. If the host suggests stopping,
he more than likely expects to
pay. However, the proper thing
for the guests to do is to offer to
pay (and with sincerity. or at
least to suggest dutch treat"
Q. When a hostess has arranged
for some kind Of game or enter
tainment, is it permissible for a
guest to ask to be excused?1
A. Never; it is very discourteous
to do so.
@. Is there any occasion when
a hostess should wear a hat in her
own home, such as a formal re-
ception?
A. No. The hostess, and those
who preside at the tea table, do
not wear hats.

Department Of Health. ST. Thomas
The prevention and treat
ment of ricketts, is not accom-
plished by food alone, but by
the addition of vitamin D. The
skin contains small quantities
of a material called ergosterol,
which may be changed into
vitamin D by ultraviolet light.
The vitamin D then assists in
the use of calcium and phos-
Iphorus in better bone building.
This explains how ricketts, may
be prevented and cured by ex-
posure to sunlight containing
ultraviolet rays, hence the
term sunshine vitamin.
During the early years, cod
liver oil is the time honored
preparation and still the best
food source of this nutrient.
Plants contain the same moth
er substance, ergosterol, upon
which light acts in human cells
to produce vitamin D. Tests for
vitamin in plants have been
done mainly on Northern
fruits and vegetables. And
the scarcity of this nutrient
may lie partly in the relative
small amounts of ultraviolet
light in the sunshine and it's
slight penetrating ability.
On the other hand, if the sun
light is of the proper intensity
and reaches the plants for a
sufficient period of time, it is
reasonable to feel that the
same good work proceeds as
that found in the body. Hence,
it is more than likely true that
fruits and vegetables grown in
the Virgin Islands sunshine
and allowed to mature tho
roughly in the sun do contain
active anti-rachitic power.
Therefore, a free supply of
vitamin D comes largely from
the sunshine through irradia-
ton of our skin, and probably
to a smaller extent from the
irradiation Of our local fruits
and vegetables.

In Press Statement
CONTINUED from nrst paeel


Is, 1949 have sold the State High
way Department four Of these $50
automobiles under the same con-
ditions which 1 have been selling
cars to the department since 1899
under Democratic and Republican
administration.
For years it has been the custom
for many Of the state departments,
authorized and sanctioned by the
Legislature, to pay mileage for the
use Of privately owned automobiles
being used on state business. The
present rate for such mileage, for
all state departments is seven cents
a mile for the first 200 miles, and
six cents per mile for all mileage
over 200 miles during any one
month.
During an emergency last
spring, it became necessary for the
Sussex County division of the State
Highway Department to rent four
automobiles on a mileage basis.
The rate agreed upon was five
cents a mile exclusive of gasoline
and oil used. This rate was consi-
dered to be in line with the APPROX
ed rates as heretofor paid by the
state. If it had been possible at this
time to have secured delivery Of
automobiles then an order in the
low priced brackets of the appro-
pirate type, this would not have
been Necessary. No motors were
installed in any Of these rented
cars at any time.

Fire Protection Week
Set For October 8-14

While fire constitutes q major
hazard to the farmer as evidenced
BY the fact that the annual fire
loss on farms in the United States
amounts to about $100,00O,0OO, new
ertheless, with proper precaution
they are relatively easy to prevent.
BY inspecting the farm regularly
and BY Immediately correcting the
fire hazards discovered, 500 Of
these fires can be prevented.
A suggested check list for Sus-
sex County farmers to use for fire
prevention inspection is as fol-
lows:
]. Get rid Of all rubbish inside
the house and clean up the dried
grass and weeds near buildings,
fence rows, etc.
2. Store gasoline and kerosene
away from main building. Use
cleaning fluids that won't explode.
8. Make sure that all the family
and ''help" smoke safely. Don't al
low any smoking in bed, barn, at
tics, or closets. Keep matches in
metal containers away from tiny
hands.
4. Protect buildings with prop
erly installed and we'll maintained
lightning rod system.
5. COmbustible roofs are a major
farm hazard. Make sure that the
roof is of fire retardant material.
6. Defective chimneys and heat
ing apparatus are a major cause
for farm fires. Make sure that the
ehimneys and heaters are cleaned
at least once a year, and that they
are properly installed.
q. Misuse Of electricity is another
leading farm fire cause. Make sure
that the wiring and appliances are
installed by competent electricians,
that the wiring and appliances are
kept clean, and that frayed wiring
is Immediately replaced. Be sure
that the fuses are of proper size.
8. Out in the barn, partially cur
ed hay ignites spontaneously.
Watch the hay particularly for sew
eral weeks after it is placed in the
NOW or as long as there is any
evidence of heating.
8. Spontaneous ignition is a real
fire threat to the farmer. In the
home, oily rags may ignite spon-
taneously. Keep them in fire-proof
containers.

which bids are available will be
S480,000. Additional costs will
be incurred in architect fees,
construction supervision, furni-
ture and non-fixed equipment
bringing the total amount up to
about S575,000, exclusive of land
and improvements which have al
ready been paid for by the Hos
pital Association.
If these figures are not changed
in the final checking, more funds
will have to be acquired to as
sure completion of the hospital.
The amounts available as of now
include S135, 900 from the coun-
ty; $215,000 in donations to the
Hospital Association; and $3.50,
900 from federal aid making a
total of $40, 900. This leaves a
deficit of S35 900 since the pro-
ject cost is now pretty well fixed
at about $575,0 900.
The need for additional funds
is being considered by officers
of the Hospital Association. A
spokesman for the Association
estimated this morning that is
possible to anticipate collection
of $4,000 on the unpaid pledge
balances of something over
the fact that this will mean 95
twice that amount, Considering

records of the citizens in MAX
