Farmers' Institute.
The fanners' institute at Rome Tues
day was well attended, much better than
the one in Wellington a few weeks ago.
Ye editor attended and was impressed
more than ever with the value of such
meetings. A few of the valuable sug
gestions heard there were: Sow wheat
early, from Sept. 10 to Sept. 20 and do
not sow it deep. Prof. Cottrell objected
to early sowing because the Hessian
fly, which has made its appearance in the
eastern part of the state, never works
atter severe frost. There is danger to the
crop and danger of their increasing in
numDersirom year to year to the destruc
tion of the wheat industry. He predicts
serious losses from that cause during the
next few years He also claims that
home grown seed is best. It should be
selected by choosing the spots in the
field that are the best and fanning out
only the shriveled grains. In this the
l'rot. is doubtless right. The fallacy
that seed must be shipped frutn Russia
or some northern country has been ex
ploded many times but it stil. lives.
Kansas can beat the world on several
things, such as wheat and corn. All
that is ueeded is care in selecting the
seed.
Preston Wyckoff has been especially
successful in raising alfalfa. He sug
gests sowing in the fall on a thoroughly
prepared seed bed and recommends disc-
