The second national apple show was
held in Spokane this year the latter
part of November. Some idea of its
magnitude may be had from the fact
that The three floors Of the Washing

100000 square feet, ard q steam heat
ed tent 30 by 800 feet were requir-
ed to accommodate the exhibits. Prizes
aggregatins $4,000 were offered. the
chief being $l.CO0 for the best ex-
hiOit in the carload class. which called
for go boxes. or 30 barrels, of one
or more standard varieties. Besides,
there were prizes for best box, bar
rel, pyramid, basket and plate dis
plays. Fruit from all the principal
apple growing sections was on exhibit
ton. and the show was conceded to be
superior to that of last year. The to-
tai number OF apples on exhibition was

One of the most practical as well as
valuable phases of the work of the
federal department of agriculture dur
ing the past year has been along the
line of helping the southern farmer to
help himself through the conduct of
model and cooperative farms more or
less directly under the supervision of
its field agents. This plan has been
found most helpful along the line of
securing radical changes of farm meth
DDS which have been long in vogue.
The good work was Started six years
ago with one field agent and one model

vision over GO.OOO farms. The result of
the work hts been to secure better
preparation of the soil. better varieties
of seed. more intensive cultivation of
the soil and the production on the
farms of the stuff needed for the con-
sumption OF both man and beast.
