Virtually the whole country is thirsting for water and wells are being driven in some places and water is hauled to other sections not so fortunate. t In sdme places farmers are'asking the question, "Whoowns the crop when the wind blows the seed front" one farm to another?" One farmer tells of having rented a field to the government and seeding it to rye later to be plowed under. Now it is growing a mixed crop of oats and rye, the oats coming on the wind from the farm across the road- Births ^ Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Williams of ; Jackson, Miss., are parents of a son, I Jack Dwight, born Saturday, May 5. ; The little fellow is very welcome as ; the first boy in the family, having j two sisters.

KLBOTRIO RATES In connection with the recent announcement by the Illinois Commerce Commission of a reduction in electric rates amounting to $1,065,000 for residential customers of the Public Service Company of Northern Illinois, James Simpeon and George A. Ranney, chairman and vice-chairman, respectively, of the company have issued the following: statement in behalf of the company: "We consider the terms of the temporary order issued by the Illinois Commerce Commission in its electric rate case against this Company moat severe and not justified by the facts presented to the CMnmission by the Company and embodied in the record that covers some, fifty-eight hundred pages of testimony and hundreds of pages of exhibits. "The Commission's ideas ef property value from which the rate base is determined are, in our opinion, too low and do not give sufficient weight to all the relevant factors bearing on present fair value. "In arrivinflLjLfc the estimated earnings of the CflBpfcny the Conimission, for rate-making purposes, has excluded some operating expense items claimed by the Company as proper and has included rentals derived from property leased to and used by another utility, which the Company believes should be omitted from operating income. The Company believes that these adjustments of earnings, made by the Commission, are unwarranted, their effect being to give apparent ground for a rate cut greater than existing business conditions justify. "Under the Illinois Utility Law a temporary order is only a brief stopping place on a long, tedious and expensive road of hearings, injunctions and litigation. More than five months have already been consumed in the taking of testimony, at gTeat expense of time and money to the Company, which, under the law is required to bear not only its own entire expense, but also a great part of the expenses incurred by the Commission in the course of rate hearings. \If this case were taken to the Federah^Courts by inj mction proceedings It woffld meitn interminable delay, disturbed public relations, and further heavy expenses, all to be borne by the owners of the business. "'Notwithstanding the inequities of the Commission's findings, the Company, deeming it wise to avoid further lengthy and expensive hearings and court proceedings, has decided to adopt the rate reductions imposed by the Commission, believing that, in view, of its public statement, the Commission will see fit to make the temporary order a final order. In doing thi3, however, the Company by express reservation does not accept the principles upon which the order is baaed. ^ "The Company's staff will thus be relieved from devoting their time and energy to defending our rate structure before the Commission and the Federal Court, and will be enabled to address themselves not only to a continuation of the high degree of service rendered to its customers and commented on favorably in the Commission's order, but to the development end expansion of the consumption of electrical energy and gas in the growing territory served by the Company. "Most of the recent improvement in the Company's gvoss revenues has not been translated into net income, due to corresponding increases in taxes and uncontrollable operating expense*, although *11 prudent operating economies havo been and will continue to be exercised. "The Company management, given a respite from rate hearings before ' the Commission, will continue to wage its vigorous compaign for new business, and hopes that Increased earnings from thisvsource will justify the directors giVmg favorable consideration in the not too distant future to the resumption of dividends on common stock "New business in a rapidly growing territory, however, requires large amounts of new capital. A study of the Company's present capital structure indicates that this n&w capital, when required, must be raised by the sale of stock rather than bonds. This will not be possible unless the Company is permitted to earn sufficient amounts to provide not only for divi dends but for a reasonable surplus after their payment T !
