"N o one should attempt to raise or move electric w.res other than employes of the Idaho Power company, who are trained to handle electric wires safely”. The careless moving o f hay der ricks beneath or near electric lines resulted in three needless accidents in the-Snake river valley last year, Mr. Frost said. Tw o o f the ac cidents occurred because the boom was not leveled preparatory to moving the derrick. Neither of the accidents was fatal.
