comes from Baltimore, whore it is
stated that strawberries win be scarce
and high this season.
Most of the farmers are demanding
from % 10 so cents q quart for the
necessary ingredient Of the delicious

price TO IS and 40 cents. 1t is said
that the high price is due to the short

S. H. KNEPPER SHOWS
SOME FINE FIELD PEAS

Mr.. and Mrs S. H. Knepper and
daughter, Mrs. Grice, whom Mr..
Knepper says is becoming a regular
lfsfarmerette," were in town Tuesday
afternoon with samples of Blue Prus-
sian peas grown on their farm four
miles north of Moscow. This is Mr..
Knepper's "first offense" in the pea
growing industry and his success
means that he will continue the work.
He planted so acres of peas last
spring, inoculating the seed with cul-
ture obtained from the University of
Idaho experiment station, and he
brought lot of the peas to town and
took them to the university to show
the success of the incubation. He
showed pea roots with half dozen
large nodules on them, and the pea
vines are large and well covered with
pods that are filled with large, plump
peas. One Of the stalks had branched
just above the ground and had five
large stalks, nearly four feet tall, and
the five contained 145 large pea pods,
all from one seed pea. Mr.. Knepper,
who is successful farmer, is delight
ed with his first venture in pea rails
ing. Last year and for many years
previous he raised some of the best
corn ever grown in northern Idaho.
Last spring he decided to sell his
large farm and retire from farming.
but changed his mind and decided !
that no other occupation is safer than |
farming in Latah county His land |
is now worth much more than the |
price asked for it last spring and he |
has fine crop as added profit for
holding onto his land.

Paid Road Indebtedness

E. w. Porter, A. Wilmot and E. P.
Atchison, and Mr.. Bechtol, of the
Kendrick Furniture Company, went
to Moscow the first of the week and
settled the unpaid balance due the
contractor for the work on the road
between here and Kendrick. The ex-
pense incurred in the construction of
the road exceeded the estimated cost
leaving balance due which has now
been taken up and paid off by these
men, thus clearing up all outstanding
Indebtedness for the work performed.
1t will take probably $500 to COM
plete the work as outlined and it Is
believed the necessary funds to COM
plete the job will be secured before
very long. 1t will furnish a splendid
road between Juliaetta and Kendrick.
