Johnny recently paid his first visit
to his aunt's farm in England. The
little boy had not been there long be-
fore he came running to her in great
excitement.
"Aunty," he exclaimed, with the air
of one imparting grave news, II don't

"Why, what makes you think that,

"Well, aunty, the public houses

Novelist Booth Harrington was talk-

gang Of Germans had made on a soli-

will be unspeakable to the end"

Former Station Employe Grows Re-
markable Crop

That the investigational work of
the Agricultural Experiment Station
of the University of Idaho can be
put into practice with telling effect
is shown by the remarkable crop of
field peas grown in Latah County by
G. B. Lyons. On so acres of land,
that would have been ordinarily sum-
mer fallowed Mr.. Lyons has threshed
1910 sacks of Blue Bell field peas.
The sacks average one hundred
pounds each, making an acre yield Of
1858 pounds or 447 bushels.
The seed was carefully hand pick
ed, the land was fall plowed and was
repeatedly worked with disc, harrow
and roller until the seed bed was in
fine condition and weeds were elm
mated altogether Mr.. Lyons attri-
butes his success in getting SO large
a yield of pure seed of peas, a yield
far in excess of the average OF the
region to lessons in seed selection and
cultural methods learned while an
