promises to be the largest fruit grow
ers assembly of any kind ever held in

This tour will be held under the
auspices of the Kansas State Agricul-
tural college, the Arkansas Valley
Fruit Growers association and the
Kansas Fruit Growers association.
The object is to bring about a
greater amount of cooperation among
fruit growers and to give orchardists
an opportunity to become acquainted
with the problems in the various soils
and climatic conditions in the state.
The proposed tour has been re-
ceived with great enthusiasm on the
part of the growers and so many COM
munities have expressed a desire to
entertain the party that it will be i'm
possible to visit them all. 1t is, how
ever, the intention of the directors of
the tour to visit orchards in the Ar
kansas valley from Arkansas City to
Hutchinson. Among other towns on
the proposed route are Council Grove
Rantoul, Ottawa, Baldwin, Lawrence,
Leavenworth, Atchison and Doniphan.
