MAcARoNl SEED FOR AMERICA
About 100000 Bushels of Macaroni
Wheat Raised in the Northwest

Washington letter: In course of the
next four years the northwest will be
furnishing macasoni wheat enough to
supply the domestic demand" said
Secretary Wilson. Last year the crop
amounted to 100000 bushels. This year
the farms in North and South Dakota
win produce 100000 bushels, the next
year probably 20,oOoo00 bushels.
The raising OF macaroni in the Unit
ed States is now decidedly past the ex-
perimental stage. When ] was in
South Dakota l saw fortyacre fields
of this wheat running thirty-flve
bushels to the acre. This is. as good
as amy ordinary wheat has ever done.
The seed wheat from which this mac
aroni was grown was brought from the
headwaters of the Volga. Experiment
has shown that it will grow in any
country where there is Il 10-inch rain
fall. In North Dakota the average is
sixteen inches.
"1'he United States has been paying
over $8,000,e00 Il year for macaroni
for the last decade or more. People
who have been in Italy, where most of
it comes from, and have seen the pro-
cess of manufacture, have been cured
of their appetite for it. With cleaner
and better methods of manufacture in
the American factories, that appetite
will assert itself and the demand will
again become normal. The product of
the American factories is better than
that brought from Italy. 1t has nutty
flavor not found in the imported arti-
Gle. Taking it all together. 1 believe
that in few years American macaroni
eaters will be consuming nothing but
the domestic article, and the Italian
makers might just as we'll go out Of
business, so far as we are concerned"

Lost Twenty Years.

Anna NJ. Willis of this place. For TWEEN
ty years she suffered all the torrents
of kidney Trouble, and anyone in that
state is not living, but simply existing.
Now Anna Nj. Willis is fully recov-
cred. She appreciates the pleasure Of
living again and never forgets to tell
You that it is all because a friend adj
vised her to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
In speaking of her wonderful cure
she says: For twenty years suffered
from Kidney Trouble. The disease was
terrible in itself and 1t was all the
more terrible because could get no re-

Thirteen.cent Beef.

Colonel Hobbs. the noted expert on
wheat values, predicts in the current is-
sue of the National Provisioner that corn
fed beef will sell at 10 cents on the hoof,
adding "and no court order can make it
cost less AT the same time he predicts
a wide range between corn finished and
grass stuff.
There isn't enough OF the Juicy corn
fed article to go around" he asserts,
" hike the American meat eater eschews
the tough grass steak. The laws of de-
mand are higher than the statutes of a
legislature and market conditions strong
er than court injunctions.
Present prices of best steers mean 10
cent beef on the hoof. Such cattle are
scarce. The price for them must so
higher. Look out for IS cent beef and
cheap. straight grass fed stuff"

"No1HlNG DOING
A Slang Phrase So Old That II Has
Become Classic,

Brooklyn Eagle: Some of those who
affect the picturesque in their language,
interlarding their speech with what they
suppose to be the latest slang phrase,
eschewing accepted and approved English
for what they think is the latest up-to-
date coinage of the purlieus. may be
shocked to learn that one of the latest
and most frequently used phrases Is at
lease fifty years old, and possibly classic.
This phrase is nothing doing" Thomas
De Quincy. in writing his paper on the
knocking at the Gate in Macbeth all
of fifty years ago, framed this sentence:
"All other murders (referring to Mac
beth's) look pale by the deep crimson of
his, and as an amateur once said to me
in a querulous tone: There has been alb
solutely nothing doing since his time, or
nothing that's worth speaking Of. - Here
the phrase is used In precisely the same
form and In the same meaning that it Is
by the professor of slang in this day.
About the same time, perhaps, few
years later, Emerson said, in one of his
essays that youth would have its fling;
that it demanded reach for Its energies
and ambitions, and that it would never
be content away from the centers of In
dustry and population where nothing is
doing" 1T is the same phrase Shake
speare uses it as "nothing done" but in
the same sense, In Measure for Meas
ure, king Lear" and "Othello." Enough
is shown to prove that the latest slang
is, after all, old and Of good use. Hitch
ing this wagon OF q slang phrase to tho
stars, Emerson. DE Quincy and Shake
speare 1t becomes classic.
1t is n fair deduction to be drawn from
the DE Quincy quotation that the phrase
"nothng doing" was slang In the day of
his writing, and was used as such. 1t Will
be noted that the brilliant master of style
