FRUIT CONTEST ALTHOUGH
LOSING THE CLARK CUP.
lsnecial TO Tho HARDLY


ogden. Sept. 8.-Notwithstanding the
loss of the Clark trophy by Utah. this
state comes out of the fruit contest with
flying colors and in the awards for in
diVidual exhibits took more than a
lions share of the first and second
prizes. II viii be seen therefore that
while the Utah exhibit as a whole lost
because of unscientific cultivation ana
lack of precautions to prevent the cod
lin moth from finding Judgment within
the specimens of apples, it is particu-
larly gratifying to know that the Utah
fruit considered in its entirety aver
aged so well when shown with that of
tie very best fruit sections to be found
anywhere In the country.
