FRUIT BREEDING FARM MAKING
GREAT RECORD

Much encouragement is being given
TO fruit growing in Minnesota by the
investigations conducted at the state
fruit breeding farm at Zumbra Heights
in the Lake Minnetonka district.
''The farm which contains about ITO
acres was purchased in 1907 says
Andrew Boss, vice director Of the Min
nesota Experiment station. "Slnce
that time a great number of seedlings
Of apples, plums, grapes, raspberrles
and strawberries have been developed
and give promise Of becoming useful
commercial varieties. Already 26 var
ieties of trees, bush and vine fruits
have been supplied to the members OF
the State Horticultural society and by
them made available to farmers and
others desiring them.
"Large numbers of varieties OF
June bearing and everbearing straWber-
ries have fruited this year. That many
of them are of excellent quality is at
tested by the members of the expert
ment station staff, who inspected them
on June 26.
Hardness, high yields and good
quality in the fruit are the objectives
of the investigators. Definite progress
is being made toward these ends.'

THISTLE WILL YIELD TO SUS-
TANNED ATTACK

The Canada thistle, also known as
the cursed thistle, is one of the worst
weed pests. It is prevalent in north
western Minnesota, and spreads by. its
root systems as we'll as by seed.- Its
eradication entails large amount Of
work. ~. ~ }FIt.
The first step in eradication, say
University Farm men, i to prevent
seed development. Some of the seed
is maturing about this time. After the
grain has been cut the infested lassd
should be plowed deep enough to bring
the roots of the thistle to the surface.
Disking the surface cultivation il the
early fall will prevent the growth of
the plants, while replowing later in the
fall will expose the roots to the action
of frosts. 3sy a II;
IF the plant persists after all this
punishment, as it probably will, q three
year rotation Of grain, clover and corn
or some other cultivated crop will fur
nish the Knockout blow. Reinforce
ment can be prevented BY q repetition
Of the rotation.

"Sheep are without question one Of

agent. "More should be raised. They
do not need great deal of attention,
as do dairy cattle, but we can well al
ford to give them necessary attention
as to proper feeds, right handling, and

are things that count and usually mean
the difference between loss and profit
on a fock.'
Mr.. Longley says no single factor

presence Of chaff and dirt. Feed should
be fed on the ground or in racks, he
says, care being taken that it is not

MAY ABOLISH SPECIAL
IMMIGRATION BOARD

Washington, July 24.-The special
board Of review. recently created BY
Secretary Of Labor Davis to expedite
the handling Of immigration appea'
cases at. Ellis. Island. New York, will
likely be abolished in view Of the dis
covery that under the law governing
admission of aliens to the United
States such a board is without power
to pass definitely on such cases.
The commissioner Of immigration
at New York was understood today
to have advised Secretary Davis that
while the creation Of the new hoard
would unq~uestionably result in lack
Of congestion and would facilitate
the disposal of appeal cases. the law
specifically provided that appeal cases
should be passed upon by the secre-
tary himself and that anybody APP
pointed by him to exercise final dts-
position could not function legally.
This. Interpretation of the law. it was
said. was concurred in by Secretary
Davis.
