Spraying apple orchards has been the chief employment of farmers in Leavenworth county during the last few days. The heavy spring rains hare caused the soil to become so muddy that it isalmost impossible for the farmers to get into the fields in some sections of the county. Many farmers from all parts of Leavenworth county were in Leavenworth yesterday.

Because the roads were in fair condition and the fields practi cally past plowing, the farmers spent Saturday in Leavenworth, knowing that the next week would bring on plenty of work on the farm if good weather 'prevailed, causing the soil to dry out sufficiently to allow plowing and planting of crops. Miles Baxter, one of the owners of the Baxter brothers' orchard, east of Boling, was among the farmers who motored to Leavenworth yester day. The roads between Leavenworth and Boling were in fair condition, Mr. Baxter said. "We finished spraying our apple orchard last week," said Mr.

Baxter. Baxter brothers sprayed their 4 0 acre apple orchard with lime-sul phur and arsenate of lead, the two cluster-bud sprays recommended by I. N. Chapman, county farm agent to be used on the apple trees when the buds are turning pink, just before bursting open. Mr.

Baxter was unable to give any estimation concerning what portion of an arple crop could be expected this year. "It is too early to tell yet," he said. William Leak, of Tonganoxie, was another farmer who took advantage of the opportunity and to Leavenworth before the spring work started in full blast compelling him to remain on the farm Saturdays the same as any other day planting crops and doing other essential spring farm work. "The ground is too muddy to get into the fields but the roads were in fair condition out my way and I took advantage of the opportunity and came to Leavenworth while I could," said Leak. He completed spraying his apple orchard last week.
