The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1921-08-12
lATAH COUNTY
NEWS PARAGRAPHS
Clipped From The Columns
of Neighboring Papers.

rnltted to the public in this news
paper by the county agricultural
agent, it appears that Frank Ben
scooter, ive-wire farmer of the
Kendrick section, took time by the
forelock and halted the labor wasted
on mixed seed wheat. He deter
mined to find something out OF the
polyglot field that spoke in so many |
Languages to HIM to see it he could |
play the game of the survival OF
the fittest. He paid particular
attention to the jenkins club heads
and mis- seed selection turned out
well. From year to year from a
little more than a bushel IN the
first planting he arrived to 35 acre
field from the original seed and has
continued to select and evolute un-
til he attracted the attention OF
the state seed commissioner. His
seed became famous and while a
great deal of it was sold and plant
ed in Latah county several lots went
to other counties and other states.
Here is the object lesson.
Genesee News: Have you ever
made trip of any distance over
land? Have you ever come to the
forks of road where each one was
equally travelled after you had
been told by a resident TO keep the
main travelled road?"- and you
stopped and wondered which one
you should take to get you to your
destination the shortest way and
there was no sign-board there to
tell you which one to take. Would
ut you have gladly paid the price
of making a sign-board for that par
ticular place IT you were sure you
we're going to take the right road,
and possibly avoid getting onto the
wrong road and travelling several
miles out of your way? OF course
YOU would. Ihen it SINNERS down
to the fact that there should be a
sign-board placed at every turn OF
the road where it is possible for
stranger to take the wrong road tol
Genesee.
With the coming of hard-surtacee
roads must come the slgn-board ane
the tourist park. Genesee has made
no move whatever to guide people
toward our little city. There arr
MANY times when people are coming
from a neighboring town who d.
not know all the lntricacies Ut tn
roads tor the nearest route and ofte
times take the wrong road tor sev
eral miles thus causing delay an
inconvenience. 1t you have eve
taken trip into strange sectlo
of the country you we'll know hoy
to appreciate friendly sign-boar
which points the way.
Troy News: j. H. Walker of Dri'
coll Ridge brought to the New
office on Saturday branch trol
the top of one OF his Lambert cherr
trees that was solid mass Of rlI
cherrls, and asked that If possibI
1T might be kept as an exhibit II
the tar. In one place on the brane
in a space as big as mans hand
we'll developed cherries were coun
ed and the entire branch was loade
IN the same way. Mr.. Walker sta
ed that this year was the most pr
life IN fruit production he had SCI
for a long time, but the hea'
bearing on these trees was the rul
HIS cherry crop this season hi
been big paying part of his far
earnings.
Juliaetta Record: After all it
perhaps the best thing that t
government has decided to SCI
home the bodies of all the de
American soldiers resulting ire
the late war. Those who desire t
bodies of their boys sent home C
have them sent at government {
pense to the point of delivery wi
500 allowed for burial expens
At least we are reliably inform
this is the way the government
returning the bodies Of the sold
boys.
