MADISON. Wis; JP) A five-point
program lor puDiic ownership and
operation of publtc utilities In Wis
consin oas been set lit motion by
the state legislature under the guid
ing band of young Oov. 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. The meas-
ure must be approved by the next
legislature and at a referendum be

t A second resolution seeks a con
- stltutlonal change to permit munlcl
paliMee to bond themselves in excels
i of live per cent of their assessed val
; uatlon In order to purchase mibltc
i utility property. 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. Loomis,
- one of the young progressives In the
upper house, a bill permitting the
creation of power districts has been
' passed and signed by the governor.

j.nect their utility plant to gain the
-advantages of mass production.
.Open Way To Competition.
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.
A bill now before the senate, how
; ever; would permit municipalities to
enter Into competition with private
r firms. The measure Is regarded as a
' club to enforce fair rates and efficient
i service,

Spring Seeding .
Near Completion
In Wallowa Co.
By (. C. Mifli
j WALLOWA. Ore. (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

tening up rapidly. Irrigated pastures
have been slow In gelling well started
