In the district school on the prairie there

BY THE SEA.

My bluo-eyed pct with golden hair
ls sitting OH my knee,
And gaZes eagerly afar,
Across tho beach, hey yond tho bar,
Who're rolls the restless sea.
She puts her little hand In mino,
And laughs with childish rlee,
10 SOC the foaminy pillows splash,
AS on the shore they fiercely dash,
Then glide bac6 uilently.
But while she laughs 80 merrily,
My heart is far away
And as I look upon tho shorc;
Where loud and long the breakers roar,
My sad soul seems to say :
Tho sea Is like human life;
1t breaks upon tho shore
or time with resistless might;
And whom the goal is just In sight,
Dies-to return 10 more.
"And all along the shores Of timo
Full many wreok doth lie
The pangs Of many a mad carouse.
or blasted hopes and broken VOWS,
OF happy days gono by"
Yet. while muse in mournful mood,
And gaze upon the y a,
My blue-eyed pet with golden hair,
Whose heart has never known care,
Still sits upon my knee.
Her heal is resting OH my broast--
Her eyes in slumber deep;
The ssrle rough sea whose breakers roar
And raadly, fiercely lash ti.e shore,
Has lulled my child to slocp.

state promises an annual harvest of forty
million bushels of wheat. The Red river
valley has been tested only since the COM
pletion Of the Northern Pacific railroad from
Duluth to Bismarck. Now the wheat fields
in the neighborhood of Morehead, where
the road crosses the Red river, are the
grandest and most extensive of any in all
the northwest. The proportion of lands in
Kansas and Minnesota which will this year
pour into the granaries of the United States
well on to 100000 bushels of wheat, bear
about the same proportion to the entire
wheat lands of these states that the seams
of a farmers coat do to the rest of the gar
ment! These states, therefore. turned into
thoroughly cultivated wheat fields, would
amply supply the table of every family of

stituents of biscuit. They confess that
bits of wire are capable of doing mischief
in mill, and propose way of remedying
it; but they place the remedy in the mill.
While we think that the miller already paws
for enough that is not wheat, in bushel of
that article, the quantity by weight is SO
small that no one would object to paying for
the wire at an equal price if delivered sepa-
rately. We think it is unjust to ask him to
atone for the carelessness of the farmer. bv
putting in more cleaning machinery but
as there is no way of discovering whether
the wheat has been bound with wire. until
the mischief is already done and the parti-
cles OF wire appear in the machinery and
bolts, it IS well for millers to be warned that
p. ecautions they can take to remove the
wire before it has an opportunity of doing
injury. In our last issue, we told of de-
vice which is coming into use, consisting of
series of magnets stretched on a rod across
the selves of grain cleaning machines. A
gentleman of this city who represents sew
eral of the wire binder machines, has sug-
gested device somewhat similar, consist

WHEAT AREA or THE NoRrHwEsr.

Within the last three years it has been
demonstrated that the valley of the Red
river of the north-especially that part Of
it lying within Minnesota--is peculiarly
suited to produce wheat equal to the best
grown In this or any other part of the world.
Kansas and Nebraska lands promise better
because an earlier and dryer season for
harvesting than northern Minnesota, but the
earlier and later seasonable rains, and the
certain carpet coverings Of snow, always
found during even winter changes in the
north, are deemed most favorable for the
Wheat-fields OF Minnesota. Already this

slave OF Cortez found few grains Of wheat
IN parcel of rice .and showed them to his
master, who ordered them to be planted.
The result showed that wheat would thrive
well on Mexican soil, and to-day one Of the
finest wheat valleys in the world is near the
Mexican capital. From Mexico the cereal
found It's way to Peru. Maria D'Escobar.
wife of Don Diego de Chauves, carried !
few grains to Lima which were planted, the
entire product being used for seed for sew
eral successive crops. At Quito, in Ecua-
dor, monk of the order Of ST. Francis. bv
the name Of Fray Iodosi Rixi, introduced
the new cereal; and it is said that the lar
which contained the seeds planted is still
preserved BY the monks Of Quito. Wheat
was introduced into the present limits OF the
United States, contemporaneonsly with the
settlement Of our country by the Enplish
and Dutch.

WIRE BOUND WHEAT.

A few months ago, whenever miller or
public journal uttered anything respect
ing the ravages caused by wire in wheat,
the farmers and those interested in the sale
of wire binders were quick to cry out that
such utterances were attempts to create pub
lie sentiment against the wire machines. and
were made in the interests of certain other
machines not using wire. 1t has taken a
long time to convince people that wire does
actually manage, in some way, to pass
through the cleaning machinery of the mill
and penetrate to and through the bolts.
The acknowledgment has come at last, how
ever. that the miller has real grievance to
complain of in grinding wire bound wheat.
Rocky Mountain husbandman. [volume] (Diamond City, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1879-02-27

The fact that something like twenty appli-
cations have been made for patents on mag
netic and mechanical appliances for remov-
ing wire from wheat, certainly points to the
existence OF vast and widespread evil.
If the wire binders have come to stay and
are not to be superseded by cord binders,
1t is well to make sucl, preparation against
the difficulty as the applications tor patents
indicate. We are assured that the parties
Interested in the manufacture of the wire
machines are getting ready to place much
larger number on the market during the
present year than last year, and that they
are backed up by the manufacturers of wire,
thus making quite formidable "ring. !"
They are determined that the wire binders
shall stay, and it certainly looks as if they
meant business, when their agents call
around and ask mill furnishers to keep mag
nets for removing wire in stock, as part Of
their regular mill supplies. We are glad to
observe that they at least gracefully ac-
knowledge that pieces Of wire are not pre-
servers OF boiling cloths nor healthy con-

spout through which the wheat must pass.
The number Of magnets used will of course
depend upon the size of the spout. SO far
as we know, all who haye tried magnets for

The cost OF the experiment, anyhow, is but
triding, and serious mischief may be pre-
vented.-Ame,ican Miller.
