Rineninr of Wheat

The change in the mode of making -four of
wheat is bringing about change in the de-
mand of millers as to the degree of ripeEess
of wheat for Touring. When -four was made
by grinding between stones and run direct
through the boiling cloths, separating the
whole into -four, middlings and bran, soft
wheats were preferred to ainty and early
ripened to desd-ripe wheat. Since the intro
duction of cast-iron rollers, instead of stones,
and sinca the single process is supplanted by
number of distinct processes Of manu-.
facture, and the best quality of -four is made
from the middlings, millers are preferring the
fiinty wheats and the dead-ripe to the wheat
cut at an earlier stage of ripeness. If the
millers would rest their reasons for preferrirg
the over-ripe wheat and the hinty varieties
upon the one fact that they are more easy to
manufacture by the new processes, we would
have no cause of complaint, because they
would then not be undertaking the truth as
to the stage of ripeness at which wheat will
afford the greatest amount of nutrition or
albuminoids, and at which il will give the
most profit to the farmer. We have on sew
eral occasions called the attention of farmers
in this State to the loss they sustained from
shrinksge in weight and nutritious qualities by
allowing their wheat to stanl in our dry
summer climate till over ripe. The claim OF
the millers by the patent or rolling process,
that fully ripe wheat contains most nutri.
ment, is not sustained by careful analysis. by
general experience or by the facts in the case.
Our attention is called to this subject at this
time by an article prepared by Professor r
G. Kedzie, and published in the Journal Of

The Chatelet Theater in Paris has been
for some time past the scene Of several
criminal attempts which, had they proved
successful, must have led to disastrous re-
suits. On the evening of February l0sh,
for instance, at the end Of ths first act of
the "Milie ct une Nuts" as the SWIM
ming girls were about to launch into space,
one of them discovered that the wire
which was to sustain the whole weight OF
her body had been filed through with an
amount of patience worthy Of better
cause. Had she trusted herself to the
wire without previously testing its eondi-
ton, fatal accident must have been the
inevitable result. Only al evening before,
the plaster had been carefully removed
from a beam upon which lighted gas
burner had been directed, with view to
causing fire. The mischief was luckily
perceived by the tiremen as they were
making their rounds, and the flames were
promptly extinguished.

macher variety. and from each held

twenty-one days in succession, commence

running up to tie time of co npl to ripeness.
These bundles be set away in dry room, aud
allowed all to stand and mature uader
exactly the same circumstances and surround
ings. When the berry was perfectly dry In
all the specimens, each bundle was thrashed
carefully ard the grain obtained kept sep
arately. Then ten grams of wheat fir m
each specimen bundle was carefully weighed
cut, being careful to exclude all broken ker-
ne!s and all foreign matter. The kernels re-
quired to weigh ten grams were very care
fully determined by counting, aid the yield IN
bushels of each cutting was ascertained. The
yield 10 bushels commenced low on the hrst
days cutting, aud continued TO increase grad
ually up to tie fifteenth day, or hfteenth cut
ting when the berry was nearly dry and ws
beginning to become hard and crushed dry
between the thumb nails from that time to
the twenty-tiTst day and twenty first cutting,
when the grain was manifastly dead ripe, the
yield decreased, being half a bushel less to
the acre on the twenty first day or cutting
than it was on the fifteenth day or cutting.
Thsn ten grams OF each sample were care
fully powdered in an iron mortar and the re-
sultant Fl Jur or meal subjected to careful an
alysis to ascertain its comparative constituents
and food value. The analysis proved beyond
doubt that the largest per cent. OF gluten ls
found in the earlier degrees of ripeuess and
gradually falls off till the grain is dead.ripe.
Professor Kadzie remarks upon this 5raIch
of the subject, THAT the claim that gluten Is
principally formed near the close of the pre-
cess of ripeuing, and that the dead-ripe wheat
ntains more gluen than wheat harvested at
some earlier period CT growth, receives DO
support from the results of these analyses"
Again, if the deac-ripe wheat is better for
the miller than wheat cut at an earlier Pc
Rod, it is in consequence OF the physical
properties of the finty berry, and not
from any change in the chemical compost
ton or increase of nutfitive value.
Professor Kedzie further remarks THAT no
effort was made to determine the food nature
of the straw at the different periods of cut.
ting. The grain so far outranks the straw
in money value that the farmer is willing to
sacrifice the straw if thereby he may secure q
corresponding increase of value III his grain !;
but the farmer is well aware Of the rapid de-
terioration of the straw by allowing it to
stand till the grain is dead.ripe; and if the
dead.ripening is attended by no real increase
in the value Of the grain, but an actual loss
in the amount of grain, and the straw deteri-
crates greatly in the meanwhile, he may con-
Glade that it is best to cut his grain as soon as
ripe, and thus save himself from needless
loss"

The RAINY seasons Changing.

The early experience Of the present popu'
lation of the Pacific coast was that the rainy
seasons eliminated or reached their greatest
severity in December and January. Such
YVES the experience almost uniformly up to
the season of 1878. when the great storm of
that season eliminated on the 205h of Febru-
ary. In 1880 we had our big rains in the
latter part of March and highest waters in
April. In 1881 again the heavy rains came
in February, and the food waters reached
their highest point about the 10th of that
month remaining up till well into March.
The present storm commenced about the 10th
Of March and reached its hight on the 18Th,
but the effects or the highest waters in the
rivers may not come till some time in April,
or even in May. The experience of thirty
years we thin k warrant the conclusion that
the rainy seasons are growing later gradually.

If gold were scarce aud hopes were plenty,

With one wee maid at household care,

And turn to you, my blushing Molly,
And laughing cali you Lady Brownt

Drop butler, footman, grooms and all,
And sit about that little table,
And never call the maid too small.
Some forty years and more bow willing
We'd let run back, my Lady Brown
How gladly give their every shilling
II We might lay their burdens down,
II we might have the sunlight shining
Through cotton shades, as it shone then,
And, tired at night sit down for dining
AS simple and az glad as when
You were but eighteen, | was twenty,
And roses bloomed, for twas spring
When gold was scarce but hopes were plenty,
And life before stood welcoming

Satfled as to Moisture

Since the first CT January the people of
nearly all portions Of the State have been in
state of suspense er doubt as to whether the
season would furnish moisture sufficient to
insure good crops. That suspense or doubt
has now been cleared away, and it has been
settled that there is no longer any reason to
fear on this account. The rains of the last
week have been very general and copious in
nearly every section, and, in the place os
fear and doubt, there comes up from every
quarter confidence and certainty. Large
areas have been Gown and the prospect
now is that the great yield of wheat
and all other farm produce Will be abundant.
Cheerful buoyancy has taken the place of
dependency among the farmers everywhere
except along the river bottoms of those
rivers liable to overflow. Along the Sacra-
mento, the Feather, the Yuba and the Ameri-
can bottoms the farmers, encouraged by the
delayed heavy rains in the valleys and SHOWS
in the mountains have been very active and
busy in putting in crops, and up to the
present time they have been cheerful and
1yful over the prospect of a good harvest to
them at least. The storms that have rem
dered all the State, outside these sections,
jubilant, have had the reverse effect here.
rhe heavy rains north, at the headwaters of
the Sacramento, and the deep SHOWS on
the Sisrras, at the headwaters of the
Feather, Yuba, Bear and American, are a
menace-that the river farmers having
sown will not reap. Already the muddy
waters are submergiHg their growing grain in
the lowest places, and the prospect is that
these waters will increase in hight till the
last grain field along these rivers will be
greatly injured, if lot completely destroyed.
The alfalfa fields that were sown last spring
after the subsidence of the food are also
threatened with destruction, and with them
will go the means of support of stock and all
other means upon which to ground hope for
a seasons prosperity. But with this excep
tion the farmers of the State are jubilaut over
the frightened prospect The question as to
moisture is fairly settled.
