Tomatoes are grown very extensive

by no means restricted to this section.
Thousands Of acres If sandy and gray

state produce the finest tomatoes. Gil
matte conditions are particularly favor
able for this vegetable. The seasons
are sufficiently long to SOW the seed in
the open ground and have plenty of
time for the crop to ripen before ver

The Cooling Moth In Illinois.

While spraying for the first brood Of
the cOdiing moth is a common prac-
tlce among Illinois apple growers. very
few have as yet attempted to control
the second brood by spraying. and seri-
Gus damage often results from the
work OF this late brood even in or
chards which have been sprayed for
the first brood. In central Illinois the
first worms of the second brood enter
the apples about July 20, and most of
the codling moth injuries apparent up
on winter apples at picking time are
due to the work of this brood. A seri-
u attack Of the second brood Is most
diSheartening to the grower. for the
injury is done after the apples have
attained considerable size and even

Plantz is Victim Of Defeated Can

cial. ANDREW J. Plantz, formerly a ru-
raj mail carrier of Calumet county, is
making Il hard fight to prove himself in
noccnt in the United States district court

PIantz is charged with having de-
stroyed letter which was entrusted to
him for delivery. 1t is claimed the let
ter was never received by the person to
whom it was directed, Plantz tearing up
the letter and envelope and throwing
them in the road along which he was
delivering.
These fragments were picked up by
two acEs vhu took them home and pieced
them together. Che fragments have been
introduced as evidence at the trial
against Plantz and the boys are among
the witnesses. The boys did not see
plantz tear the letter into pieces. but
claim they saw hand supposed to be
that of plantz, throw the fragments from
the rural mail wagon.
The defense maintains that the charge
against Plantz is the result of malicious
ness and persecution on the part Of Will
liam Hurley, whose cmnity PIantz had
incurred by defeating him for the office
of township treasurer. Practically all
of the evidence introduced today has
been of a circumstantial character.
