The Parent Of Wheat.

The most remarkable fact con-
scerning the queer plant, the goats
'eye, is that it has been proved by
experiment to be the parent of cul-
tivated wheat. This fact was acci-
dentally discovered by a French ag-
riculturist. He wished to determine
what effect cultivation would have
upon the goatseye and planted 1e-
mote from any fields Of grass that
might mingle with it few Of the
seeds. The first crop showed much
difference from the original, being
two or three times taller and more
grains to the stalk. At the end Of
seven years. experimenting the yield
was over 300 grains for each one
planted, and the transformation was
complete; every plant was true
representative of cultivated wheat.
LAGER he sowed them in open fields,
and in no instance have they re-
turned to the form of the original
goatseye grass.
The same experiments have since
been tried by the English Agricul-
1ural u, society with the same results.
!he nearest form to true wheat now
found wild is the creeping couch
grass, perennial closely agreeing
In all essential particulars Of struc-
lure with our less cultivated annual
wheat. 5

GOOD LUCK BIRDS.
No One Is Permitted 60 Kill q Wild
Duck In Honaf.

no One Is Permitted 60 Kill q Wild
" Duck In Honan.
The people in Honan, says Alice
Hamilton Rich in Lesiie's Weekly,
do not eat ducks, especially wild
ducks. No one is allowed to kill
them. It is regarded almost Ike
killing a person. The reason for
this care is found in the following
story:
Long, long ego there was o widow
who had very bright son. The
hrother-in-law, because the widow
refused to marry him, took away all
the property ana turned the widow
and m son out to die. The mother
found some work; but, being afraid
the wicked uncle would kill her son,
she sent him far away. But the god
Of good luck took the boy for his
brother and went with him. He
was very, very fortunate and finally
became an emperor. It then be-
came his duty to find his mother,
not only because he was anxious to
care for her, but also because she
only knew where were the ancestral
tablets and graves. Great rewards
were offered for her discovery. and
all the mandarins put out procla-
nations TO that effect. Finally q
wise man came to the emperor and
asked him what kind Of birds lived
in his province. The king did not
even know in what province he was
born. The emperor replied that he
remembered as g child seeing in
spring great numbers OF wild ducks.
The wise man then seid, "Give me q
letter written to your mother, and I
will send it to her." The emperor
was very glad to do this, although
he greatly wondered how it would
be possible for the wise man to
know where to send this letter.
One day the poor widow was
washing rice at a pool when wild
duck came fluttering down at her
side. But something seemed wrong
with it's wing. On examining it she
found there was a letter attached to
it. She thought the letter must
surely have come from the gods, so
carried it to the village elders. On
their examination they found it was
addressed to the widow and brought
not only good news to her, but good
fortune also to the whole village.
Word was sent to the emperor, who
first rewarded the wise man, then
sent handsome cart, accompanied
with long procession Of mandarins
and their attendants, bearing BAN
ners and rich presents to all in the
village who had been kind to his
mother. He also punished all who
had been unkind. Many Of the
young men of the village were called
to the emperor's, court, and the
taxes for that whole province were
ightened, and in gratitude the off,
cials declared that henceforth the
wild duck was to be free from all
danger.
To this day no one is permitted
to kill this bird, as. they still believe
that it is q good luck bird.
