the occasion. She uttered no further
reproach, but simply promised the
two biscuits if he would explain why
he had lied for him.

death-bed of his son to vote against
the measure. 1t was announced from
the floor of the house that Mr.. Miller
had postponed the funeral of his son
one day in order to vote no" on this,
important question. The debate was
long and intereting inasmuch as the
principal speech for the bill was made
by Assemblyman Cady of Wood who
was supposed to be against it until a
few days ago, and that he should
lead the discussion for the measure
was a great surprise Z. Ray
Stevens, author of the measure, ex-
planned its provisions at great length.
Mr.. McCabe, a democratic member
from Milwaukee, said he was not op-
posing the measure on partisan
grounds but because he wanted to
satisfy his own conscience. Then he
began an effort which involved some
of the shrewdest parliamentary
practice ever seen on the floor of the
assembly, to have the bill so amended
that it would be submitted to a vote
or the people for ratification at the
next election. In this he was bafied.
Assemblyman Cady spoke from the
position of man who had changed
his mind. He said he had made nm
his mind when the bill was first intro
duced not to vote for il, but the
amended measure was so fair that he
was now going to vote for it. AS
semblymen Keene and Barker of Mil.
waukee said that they had received no
petitions, letters or requests of any
kind from their constituents that thew
should vote for primary election
bill, and that they therefore felt no
obligation to vote for the measure
against their personal views on the
matter e. A. Williams and Assem-
byman Si-kworth spoke briefly along
the same lines, and these were
practically all the arguments advanc-
ed against the measure. Assembly
men David Evans of Waushara and
Sturdevant from Clark also spoke for
1t. Then came the vote to pass as

MAcARoNi WHEAT.
May Become One of the Great Staple
Products Of This Conntry.

The United States Department Of Ag-
rieuiture has just announced one Of the
most valuable discoveries Of recent years.
Ii is the introduction # the drought-re-
sisting macaroni wheat, imported from
the Eolga region Of East Russia. This
wheat is adapted to semi-arid districts
and can be probably grown in the great
plain regions Of the United States far
beyond the Tooth meridian
Already astounding results have been
obtained by the government In South
Dakota, where the crop has just been
thrashed from one locality, II is reported
that the yield of macafoni wheat will be
from 80 to 40 bushels per acre, which is
one-third more per acre than The average
yield of the regular wheat from this sec
ton. The establishment OF TINS new
wheat industry will be of incalcnia5ie
benefit to agriculture in the semi-arid
plains. A million or more of acres can
thus be given to profitable wheat rails
ing, which, o. account of drought, have
heretofore beer entirely idle
Macaroni wheat differs radically from
the ordinary bread wheats. The grain is
much harder, and In the best varieties
contains an unusual amount Of nitrogen
and correspondingly small amount Of
starch. The quantity and quality of the
gluten make it exceedingly valuable for
making macaroni. The area outlined by
the Department of Agriculture where
maearoni wheat will succeed best is q
long belt extending northward and south
ward through the great plain from North
Dakota to the Texas coast In width it
