lated during the past week by the visit
Of Messrs. Dossett and Sparks, horti-

who did attend were we'll repaid.
The inspectors believe that the Pend
Oreille valley is one OF the most favored
sections in the west for the growing OF
the choice varieties of winter apples,
and that this industry will prove one OF
the greatest factors in the upbuilding OF
the valley.

tions of the county were on exhibition.

displays were made by George Bobier,
r. / Towle and M. M. Sammons.

thepractice Of sowing wheat only at.
ter the bulk Of the flies have depos-
tied their eggs. This time, however,
varies with the nature of the season
from year to year, and can be deter
mined only by experiment. Expert
mental sowings during the past year
have shown that wheat sown in the
southern part Of Kansas after Octo-
beer 18th has been almost entirely
FREQ, while that sown after the first
week in October in central Kansas
and In late September and early Oc-
tober In northern Kansas has been
found free from infestation.
It Is obvious that any method that
makes healthier. stronger plant will
mature a better crop in spite of the
fly than would be possible where the
plants equally infested are neglected
Therefore, the choice of good seed,
enriching Of the soil, and careful and
systematic preparation of the seed
bed are exceedingly important measu
es In preventing the damage due to
