Philip La Follette. One of the main planks In the Progressive-Republican campaign last year, the power program has been ' probably the most controversial sub i Ject during the legislative session. It I may be carried to completion In five i years, . - 1 One measure In the program would permit the state to go into the lteht. heat and power business.

This resolution needs uiuy approval b a reierenaum. ine five per cent bonding limit has In I many instances been the barrier to muni ci pally-owned plants. Sponsored by 8en. O. 8.

For almost a quarter -century, Wls ' cousin private utilities have been Im mune from competition, it has been charged, because of the Indeterminate operating permit granted them by tne state.

(Special) With i spring seeding operations nearlng i completion on many 01 tne iarms in 'this community, the attention ofa number of the larger farmers is be ing turned to the plowing of large tracts of summerfallow. A consider 'able amount of summerfallow In th hill sections has been turned under i during the part week or ten days. Keporis jrom tne most or tne farms i indicate that the soil contains plenty joi moisture to maxe plowing good. ) Weather conditions during the past two or three weeks have been favor ! able for the start of much of the i weeds on the ground and a large crop of them was killed with the first working of the ground. Much of the recently seeded grain Is beginning to come up and In most Instances .the stand gives promise of being quite even. A large part of the spring grain seeding here this season consists of barley and oats, with much of it being of new types of grain which have been tested out In small plots during the past several years nd have been proved to be well adapted to conditions here. Previous to tieae recent tests many of the farmers In the dry sections of the county were rather disgusted with trials at grow ing other grain crops than wheat and for a number of years much of the hill farming consisted of winter wheat I aicme. However, since tne lntroduc I tlon of some of these latest types of I barley and oats the spring grain crop i is gradually returning at a number of the farms and in many Instances yields received have been highly sat isfactory. The fields, which were plowed last fall for seeding this spring, have been worked into excel, lent condition and are said to be holding the moisture In fine shape. A considerable amount of early gar den planting has been done during the past week or two and some who are planning on planting potatoes are busy getting their ground into shape for planting as soon as pos sible. No reports are heard of where any large patches of potatoes are be ing planted in this community this season, however, many of the farm ers who usually plant for one to three acres each year sav thev exnect to plant about the usual amount. Pasture conditions In the hills are line and all classes of stock are fat tening up rapidly. Irrigated pastures have been slow In gelling well started during the cool weather, ,4 The present season appears to be a veiy lavoraoie one iot me sliver black fox farm which Is operated hereby H. E.

Several local people are Joint owners In the stock of the farm as well as a few from out of the county. Several farmers of this end of the vaiiey report tne loss of a consider able number of young pigs during recent weeks from various causes. In some Instances the loss of the entire litter has been suffered. L. V. Lath rop. of Leap, recently had two sows loose their litters and Roy Oastin re ports the loss of nine pigs several days old from getting into another pen during the night and being crushed by larger hogs.
