Whom and Whenee Ii Came

Wheat, which is now the bread corn of
twelve European natione, and ia fast sup
planting mai2s ia America aud several
interior grains in india, was no doubt
widely grown in the prehistoric world.
The Chinese cultivated 1t 2700 B. g., as a
gift direct from heaven; the Egyptian
attributed It's origin 10 Iris and the
Creeks to Ceres A classic account Of
the distribution OF wheat over the pri
meyal world shows that Ceres, having
taught her favorite Triotolemus agrioul.
ture aud the art of breadmaking, gave him
her chariot, celestial vehicle, which he
used in useful travels tor the purpose OF
distributing corn to all nations. Ancient
monuments show that the cultivation Of
wheat had been established in Egypt be-
fore the invasion OF the shepherds, and
there il evidence that more productive
varieties of wheat have taken the place
OF one, at least, OF the ancient sorts. In
Vulnerable varieties exist OF common
wheat. Col lie Couteur OF Jersey oulti
waited $50 varieties. Mr.. Darwin men

leeted 322 varieties, AMI the great firm OF

eux ct Gle. cultivate about twice az many
in their trial grounds near Paris. In their
recent work on the "Dts Meilleurs BiesN
Nj. Henry H. de YilmorIu has dseoribed GS
varieties of best wheat, which he has
classed into seven groups, Though these
groups can hardly be called dis
tinot species, since M. Henry l.. de
Yilmoriu has orossbred three of them,
Tritioum yulgafe, Triticum targidum, and
Triticum drum, and has found the off
spring fertile. Three amall-gtPined varie-
ties of common wheat were cultivated by
the frat lake dwellers OF = Sutherland thine
of Torjan VAR and as we'll as by Switzer-
Ian j aud OF Italy, by the people of Hun
gary in the stone age, and by the Egyp-
tians on the evidence Of a brick Of pyra
mid in which grain was embedded, and
TO which the date of 3 3O9 b. g. has been
asa gned The existence of names for
wheat IN the most ancient languages con
firms this evidence OF the antiquity of its
culture in al the more temperate parts Of
Europe, Asia, and Africa, but IL seems i'm
probable that wheat has ever been found
growing persistently IN wild state, al
though the fact has often been asserted
by poets, travellers, and historians. In
the Odyssey, for example we are told
that wheat grew in Sicily without the aid
of men, but a blind poet could not have
seen this himself, and a botanical faoC
can hardly be accepted from writer
whose own existence has been contested.
Diodorus repeats the tradition that Osiris
found wheat ana barley growing promis-
ouousIy IN Palestine, but neither this nor
other discoveries of peraistent Wild wheat
seem TO us TO be credible seeing that
wheat does not appear to be endowed
with power of persistency except IN
der culture.
