WHEAT BADLY HURT.
Northern Walla Walla County Will
Reseed Large Acreage.

All the wheat on what is known as
the Upper Flat, near Clyde, will have
to be resown, according to the report
that Sam Smith, j. E. Webb and Ben
Grote brought back yesterday after a
trip into that section, says the Walla
Walla Bulletin.
owing to the moderated weather
they were able to determine this fact,
and they state that there was abso-
lutely no question but what the wheat
is gone.
Joseph f. Painter and c. w. Pear
son telephoned to Walla Walla this
morning from the extreme northern
part of the flat that the wheat was
frozen out there, and that the farmers
are making preparations to reseed
their land.
Farmers in the immediate vicinity
of Eureka Junction Jared better than
those of the upper part OF The fiat, as
reports from there are optimistic. The
wheat in that part of the country, the
farmers say, is damaged but little, and
practically no reseeding will have to
be done.

WILL TEST DRY LAND.
Northern Pacific VIII Conduct Ex-
periments In Montana.

Director Linfield, of Montana ex-
pertinent stations, staes that prepara-
tions are being made by the expert
ment station staff at Bozeman, Mont,
to carry on a number of dry-land ex-
periments this year. The Northern
Pacific and Great Northern railways
and the state have contributed be-
tween them about $500 to pay the
expenses of conducting the expert
ments, is the report that comes from
Bozeman, Mont.
One experiment will be conducted d
near Shelby junction, another one a
little north of Harlem, and a third at
Wayne's Siding, near Great Falls,
All these places are located near the
route of the Great Northern railway.
On the Northern Pacific the expert
ments will be carried on at four diff
ferent places. There will be one
farm at Billings, another near For
syth, another close to Glendive, and
the fourth within a short distance OF
Miles City.
The object of the experiments is to
ascertain what crops grow to advan-
tage on dry lands and how such dry
lands ought to be cultivated.

STATESMAN SUED FOR 10000.
WalIa Walla Paper Charged With
Slandering Paving Company.

The Warren Construction company
this afternoon filed a suit in the su-
per!or court against the Evening
Statesman alleging libel and asking
for damages in the sum of $4,000,
says the Walla Walla Bulletin.
The suit was filed by Attorneys Os-
car Cain and Brooke & Bartlett, rep
resenting the Warren Construction
company.
The alleged lbelous articles were
published in the Statesman during the
present month. The first one on the
evening of March 3, in which it was
alleged that the Warren company had
sprung another scheme to blind prop
erty owners by its proposal to furnish
material for bitulithic paving to any
contractor for S1.45 per yard.
An editorial and news story pub
lished in the Statesman last night at
tacking bitulithic paving are also made
the basis for the suit.
Representatives of the company as
sert that the Statesman has been
prompted to make the attacks against
it for business reasons. They also as
sert that the suit will be vigorously
pushed in the courts and that the
Statesman will be held to strict ac-
counting for its utterances on the
paving question.
The suit promises to be one of un-
usual interest in as much as a great
many discriminating charges have re-
Gently been made in connection with
the paving controversy and the trial
will likely bring out some inside in
formation bearing upon the affair.

Wheat Not So Badly Damaged.

1t was feared by many farmers in
this district that much damage had
been done to wheat, but the estimates
of losses have been greatly reduced.
a number of extensive farmers have
stated that fields they believed one
week ago to have been seriously dam
aged are looking 200 per cent better
today than on the day following the
storm; that several who had intended
reseeding had abandoned the idea.
Upon investigation II has been found
that the seed has been injured very
little. If any.
r. T. Juvenal, who is probably one
of the largest farmers in Franklin
county, expresses the belief that the
crop will come out all right. As an
evidence of his faith he will do no
reseeding, barring, possibly. a few
patches. In the western part of the
county where the soil is much lighter
some tracts will be reseeded.-Spokes-

TO DESTROY HESSIAN FLY.
Insect Discovered i'm Montana Which
Is an Enemy to the Pest.

Montana has won new fame and If
the expectations of experts of the de-
partment of agriculture is fulfilled the
state will have the distinction of fur
nishing an insect enemy of the Hes
sian fly, the great wheat pest that
will save $1O0,OO0,O0O a year for the
farmers of the United States, says the
Rocky Mountain Husbandman of
Great Falls.
The discovery of the parasite also
proves that the wheat fields of Mon
tana are perfectly protected from the
ravages of the dreaded fly.
The tiny insect upon which the gov
ernment entomologists are depending
to check and possibly to destroy COM
pletely the Hessian fly is the polygno-
tus heimilis, and it is indigenous to
Montana, Northern Dakota and Idaho,
where it was discovered during the
summer of 1905 by G. ]. Reeves, of
the bureau of entomology of the de-
partment of agriculture while on field
work connected with investigation of
the Hessian fly.
