Don't Plant Spring Wheat.

The Missouri Agriculture Ex-
pertinent station has received
quite a few inquiries relatives to
the sowing of spring wheat. The
men there advise against it. They
say that the planting of this
wheat is an invitation 80 the
chinehbugs and other pests to
get busy and the spring wheat
does not mature and develope in
this warm climate as it does fur
ther north where the winters
are too severe for fall wheat
and the spring and summers
cool enough for the development
of the spring crop.

Shippey Sees Dalton.

Lee Shippy of Higginsville was
here not long ago trying to put
on a lecture course for next year.
He visited Dalton. When he got
home, under the caption of
Travelling Around, gave some
mention of Dalton. Part of this
is reprinted, as much
as Shippey sent the Courier.
There was more however, but
Shippy clipped the article in two
and left only enough of what
followed to show that the next
paragraph started, But Dalton
is the last of several. He should
have sent all the article. Below
is the part received:

together, and the result in that
Dalton is not only prosperous
but is getting famous, for every
traveller who visits there goes
forth to sound its praises. All its
citizens seem to be boosters, and
chief among them are: Thomas
