1t is not as rich in protein as or
binary wheat but nevertheless has
a high feeding value. Like the
goose wheat it should be coarsely
ground when fed, and mixed with
other grains. It is not of value
for bread making purposes because
of the peculiar character Of its
gluten; it is, however, a valuable
animal food and can be fed to adj
vantage, taking the place ofexpen-
sive mill products. Composition
of speltz: Water, 1902; ash, 1925,
fat, 2.25; protein, 1925; fiber,
9.22. The protein contents of
this grain, together with it's pro-
ductiveness and hardness seems
to make this a desirable dairy

Farm, Stock and Home.
There is evidently a great desire
to know more about this grain for
feeding, and also about it's yields
and other characteristics. Re-
ports have been secured from
growers as far north as Manitoba,
and south to northern Iowa, and
all are extremely favorable. From
50 to 60 bushels to the ere are
reported from drouth stricken
regions last season, and in some
cases where wheat and oats were
almost a failure. It grows very
strong, and seems adapted to with
stand many vicissitudes of climate.
One from Nicollet county, Mimi,
reports lao bushels from two sacks
Of seed, and others report nearly
as much where other grains we're
very light. Regarding the feed
ing value Of the grain, Prof. Sny-
der says.
Il have analysed the speltz and
find it to have about the same
composition as barley and oats.

the most experienced and scientific
agriculturalist living on earth
today.
Back in New Hampshire and
other New England states may be
seen farms in any number which
have been abandoned by their
owners because, till the land as
best they could, yet it positively
refused to yield a decent crop.
The people who lived on these
farms simply had to move or
starve. They could not make a
living cultivating the soil.and as a
consequence were compelled to 90
somewhere else to earn q liveli-
hood.
Now if a man happened to be
the unfortunate possessor of one
Of these New Hampshire barrens
he will tell Prof. Bailey that the
farm cannot be made Is pay. If,
on the other hand, he happens to
own 100 acres or more Of good
North Dakota soil, such, for in
stance, as that to be found in
.E4EtL .FEE.-H#.
Ramsey county, he will think
Prof. Bailey's query a very foolish
one. A poor eastern farm is a
worthless possession and any at
tempt to make a profit off it will
end in failure, but the man who
cannot make a Ramsey county
farm pay has missed his calling
beyond a bubble ola doubt.
There is, to state a plain truth,
no section of the United States
where farming can be carried on
more profitably than in the country
surrounding Devils Lake. Here
the Industrious and persevering
farmer cannot fail. He wins
every time because the chances
are all in his favor. This fact is
being noised abroad and explains
why SO many eastern people are
seeking homes among us.

DEVILS LAKE.

Devils Lake city is the capital
Of Ramsey county. 1t is a thriv-
ing and growing place, situated
almost upon the banks of the most
magnificent body of water in the
state, and is surrounded by an
agricultural region of unsurpassed
fertility. The country is rapidly
increasing in wealth. and popula-
ton and the future success and
greatness Of the city of Devils
Lake is not only assured but con-
coded. It is bound to grow for
there is nothing that can check it's
development.
Furthermore Devils Lake is q
pleasant city in which to dwell
There are cheerful homes, cultivat.
ed people, refined society, excel
lent schools and fourishing
churches here, SO that no matter
how alluring may have been the
environments Of ones former sur.
roundings, in a social way, he need
not feel, when he comes to this
city. that he has forsaken those
refined pleasures that make life
enjoyable to many. And, be il
said to their credit, if not to our
own, that strangers. almost invar,
iably enter at once into our social
life and find it most congenial, no
matter how cultured may have
been the society in which they
formerly moved.
In an industrial, commercial
and social sense Devils Lake, con-
sidering its size, is fully abreast
Of the times. In fact it would be
difficult to find anywhere a city Of
equal size that surpasses it in
these important respects, SO that
the reader must readily conclude
that ours is, as the Inter Ocean
claims, a pleasant community in
which to reside. Furthermore
there are business opportunities
here which invite capital. The
man who erects a first class hotel
will find that he has established a
profitable business. New business
blocks would prove valuable. prop
erty and money invested in them
would bring rich returns. There
are also other avenues open te
capital, but we will not take the
time to specify them. Suffice il
