No Hessian Flies

From reports and newspaper
information, it seems that the
wheat in some sections of the
state is being quite severely
damaged by the Hessian fly.
Upon investigation we have
learned that no such condition
exists in Meade county and the
wheat is in excellent condition.
The large amount of rain this
spring aud the absence of high
winds enabled the wheat to be-
come we'll rooted and to make a
rapid growth. However, itisn't
a good idea TO ''crow" too soon,
for the Hessian fly may yet visit
our waving wheat fields and
make up tor lost time. We hope
not, but in case such a misfor-
tune should befall any of our
wheat raisers between now and
harvest time, we print an article
elsewhere in to-day's News con-
taining some valuable lnforma-
ton as to how to destroy this
pest.

The Hessian Fly

That the loss to this years
Kansas wheat crop will be even
greater than that Of 1908, is the
belief of George A. Dean, ento-
mologist in the Kansas State Ag.
rIcultural College. In the year
referred to Al counties had loss
of nearly $9,OOO,OOO.
"The Hessian fly" said Pro
fexsOr Dean, "has been increas.
ing for several years and dc.

of wheat. In 1912 it was con-
fined principally to the north
eastern part of the state and in
1913 serious damage occurred
in that region. The dry sum

seriously hinder the develop

Departed

Frank Bennett, one of Meade's
most highly respected citizens,
answered that summons which
sooner or later each of us must
answer, on Saturday afternoon,
May 18th at 500 o'clock.
For the past few months Mr..
Bennett had been in poor health
and less than month ago, ac-
companied by his family, went
to Mineral Wells, Texas, with
the hope that a change of eli.
mate would prove beneficial, but
it soon became evident that the
hope was vain, that his days of
usefulness here were few. His
parents were notified that his
condition was growing worse,
and left for Mineral Wells at
once, and with his wife and two
children, were at his bedside
when the end came.
1t is unnecessary to recall at
this time the many excellent
traits of character he possessed,
but of which he never boasted.
Up until few days before he
left Meade he was member of
The Southwest Telephone. Co.,
when, due to his poor health, be
retired from the firm. At the
lime of his death he was serving
his third term as a member of
the Meade school board, having
been reelected at the last an
nual meeting without opposition.
He was deeply interested in the
progress of education ard the
news of his death cast a shadow
of gloom over the entire school.
To his family he was a devoted
husband and father, to his
church faithful mem ber, and
TO Meade an upright, honorab Bile,
citizen who en- joyed the respect
and confidence Of the entire
community. His life was one
which might we'll be taken as an
example, and his untlmely death
is regretted by all who knew
him.
Frank /. Bennett was born in
Lafayette, Tippecanoe County,
Indiana, November the 3rd 1871.
With his parents came to Meade
County, March 5th, 1887, and
located near Fowler. On Dec
ember 30th, 1894 he was mar
ried to Miss Katie C. Krisle, and
10 this union four children were
born, two of whom died IN infan-
cy. Several years ago, with his
family he came to Meade and be-
came mem ber of The South
west Telephone Co., in which he
remained until few weeks be-
fore his death. He was a me M
Der of the l. o. O. F., The Mod
crn Woodmen, and Masons
He is survived by his wife and
