Atlanta, urn. ZSJ 11 hxjmllLlZ .8 $1.85 Thousands of Inquiries are being received by the department of agri culture regarding: the new variety of wheat rnlsed by Abraham Adams of Jullaetta. Idaho, which Is alleged to produce ns high ns 222 bushels an acre, says a Washington letter. The Saturday Evening Post of last week exploited this wheat and since then the department of agriculture has had no peace. In order to ascertain the facts, Director French of the Idaho experimental station at Moscow has been directed to visit the Adams farm and see the wheat for himself. According to reports the wheat In j question has a composite head, that Is, each head Is made up of a cluster of ordinary heads and is of white, soft variety. Agricultural experts are skeptical about it and say that it is a strain of "miracle" wheat or seven-headed wheat that has lnm; bet n grown In Afferent parts of the mountain re ciniiM They say they have analyzed it and found It low in proteid. They 'also iloub' whether It Is good milling j vheat ami think farmers should go j slow about taking up with it until the department fns Investigated. Another "report from Washington ;sas: A Variety of wheat under the j name "Alaska" is being advertised widely a.s capable of jlelding at the ; rat'- of 2'0 bushels to the acre "under i . or lrnaiy soil conditions." j It is st ited th.it this v.ni'tv was i found growing will on th eastern , f Alaska and claims of the! nt na'tii e are made for I ty quests for seed.

Several careful investigations as to the condition of the fire have been made in which several bodies were removed, together with much debris.

The tremendous volume of the ap. pie and pear Industry of the United States Is shown In a comprehensive report on that subject compiled by W X. White, a recognized authority on the fruit Industry. Mr. White takes each state and ter ritory separately and shows how many apple and pear trees of fruit bearing age there were In the United States on June 30 last. Of course, the ex. tent of the apple Industry Is many times greater than the pear Industry, the number of the apple trees in the Union reaching the tremendous total of 201,794,642 trees, whereas the num ber of pear trees Is 17,719,184. Missouri heads the list of states and t rrltorles in the number of frult "bparlng apple trees, while California Is first In the number of pear trees. In Missouri on June 30, there were 20,040,399 apple trees, while the num ber of pear trees In California was 2,512,$!0. New York is secund in both Indus tries, the number of apple trees in thh state bearing fruit beln l.LO.'d.SSi, while the pear tree in New York numbers 2,1 S3. 909. Illinois Is thin) in the list uf apple states, with 13,. 450. HOC trees; Ohio fourth, with 12. 952.62.'. and Kansas fifth, with 11.. MS.070 trees. Other stites that produce tremen. dous apple crops are Pennsylvania. Michigan, Virginia and Kentucky. Delaware with 1253 apple trees, is at the foot of the column, and North Da kota, with 2351 trees, next to foot In the list of apple states. In the number of pear trees Michi gan Is third, with 1,187,110 trees; Texas fourth, with 1.0I4.6SO. and New Jersey 'fifth with 926,117 trees. North Dakota is a bad last In th pear Industry there having been, ac cording to Mr. White's figures, only three fruit-bearing pear trees In that state on June 30. Wyoming, with 135 trees, and Delaware, with 1118 trees, follow North Dakota with the fewest number of pear trees. Mr. White says that while the apple and pear Industries do not rank with the grain and wheat crops, the figures show the magnitude of the former In. dustry, and that reckoning apples at 40 and pears at 60 trees to the acre, It will be seen that the total acreage Is above five million, which 1 50 per cent greater than the potato crop, while the harvesting of the crop gives employment to five times as many persons as the potato crop. i a limited mull allied years.

The chamber of commerce com mittee in charge of Spokane county's exhibit at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition to be held in Seattle next vear has entered Into contract with James McC'onahey to provide moving pictures to be used In connection with the exhibits from this county, says the Review. Mr. MeConahey will go to the l'alouse country today to se cure pictures of harvesting scenes. The members of the Irrigation committee appointed this week by the chamber of commerce to make efforts to have Spokane chosen as the seat of the Irrigation congress to bo held lir the fall of 1909, have active ly started the campaign. Correspond ence has been opened with the com mercial organizations of Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Montana and Califor nia to enlist their support In behalf of the movement to bring the con gress here. I,; Cf. Monroe, secretary of the chamber of congress, said: "Denver, J Col., will be our only serious rival and we will have the advantage over that city In view of the fact that Spokane Is on the route from eastern states to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific fair to be held in Seattle. TlckeU from eastern points to Seattle will be good for a stopover In Spokane, and for that reason we have strong hopes f being able to bring tho Irrigation congress here."
