MISUNDERSTANDING temperatures,
which prevailed throughout Indiana
recently are not believed to have
caused much loss to wheat and other
field crops, although reports to Purdue
university farm experts from county
agricultural agents indicate some dam
age in q few regions. Glover suffered
in places. "A large part of the Hoos-
Ter fruit already had been damaged
badly by cold weather on the nights
of April 10 and March % and 20. Adj
ditional loss 10 buds that still were
living is reported in various localities,
especially in the north part of the
state, where the different varieties
previously had not been as hard hit as
the crops in the southern counties.
IndianapOlis-U. S. Lesh. attorney
general. gave a formal opinion TO the
state board of agriculture that the ST.
100000 total bond issue proposed at
the last session of the legislature for
improvements at the staR fair ground
would not be against the state consti-
tuition, as some persons contended. 1t
had been contended that the state
has no right TO issue bonds for such
purposes. but Mr.. Lesh says that in
his opinion the bond issues proposed
would be legal. as they would be
made by the trustees of the board OF
agriculture as officers of the board,
and not as officers of the state of In
diana.

ture at the Charestown high school
recently completed testing 5000 ears

corn. 1t averaged better than seed
corn used generally in the county.
Tests showed 26 per cent poor
termination and 10 per cent affected
with disease. The improved rag doll
test as used is said to be the only
one that will indicate both c0ndi-
tiOnS.
