Seed Luto to Avoid Hessian Fly
From Farm Bureau News)
Several eastern Nebraska counties
are sufficiently infested with Hessian
fliei? to make late wheat sowing ad
visable, according to the State Col
lege of Agriculture. The fall wheat
counties along the Missouri river and
the second counties back may well
delay sowing until the last week in
September. As. a general rule, fairly
! early seeding is desirable. Condi
tions in certain sections this year,
however, warrant delay in order to
avoid tne ncssian lly pesft Those
attending the State fair should not
fail to study tho churls and other
exhibits of the College of 'Agricul
ture and the State Entomologist,
showing tho distribution of the Hes
sian fly, dates of seeding, nnd other
information iclative to insects and
pests.

A message which turns upside down

of removing fho curse of the mnllg

taken. Tho Southern California Auto
mobile club has erected 1,220 metal
road signs to make Dcnth valley fool
proof to the motoring visitor. This la
the largest number of road signs ever

Contrary to what might be expected,
this does not remove tho romance of
