CAUGHT IN MALE ATTIRE
A South Dakota Girl Found in q
Stock Car

Curled up ia the hay box of stock
car filed with cattle on the way to
Chicago, the train crew at Sanborn,
Mimi, Wednesday found a supposed
tramp. The fral Weary Willy had
almost collapsed from the cold and
when pulled out by the train men
uttered a plainti1I cry. II wore the
habilamentS OF a man but had the
voice Of a woman When one OF the
trainmen guessed the secret there
came a confession that the tramp was
a woman and that she climbed into
the cattle car at Miller, SD, and was
bound for her home at Kansas City.
Brakeman f. A Brown who is a be-
nedict and has home In Mason CITY,
took the girl the way car, and when
she reached Mason City, secured her Il
change Of his wife's clothing and re-
ported the case TO the authorities.
The girl gave her name as May Pun
age. When she was a child she said
her mother and father disagreed and
parted. Her mother remarked and
the family scattered. A sister OF hers
went to South Dakota, and some time
ago her mother asked her TO take up
the search for her. She found the
sister at Miller, working for farmer,
and she also engaged as domestic on
a farm, but the rough work was more
than she could stand and She decided
to return home to Kansas City.
Not having any money she sought
aid from male cousin, who suggested
she take a suit of his clothes and
"bum" her way back. She was cared
for by the county authorities, given a
new outfit and a ticket TO Kansas City
She is a blonde and pretty.

The Macar0ni Wheat Marker
An Interesting Article Anen the Macaron Wheat Market by
Prof. c. j. Zinfheo, of Fargo, North Dakota

used for macarOni only, and the idea
prevailed that it was not suitable for
bread making Experiments are now
being made which indicate that bread,
made from macaroui wheat flour, is
healthier than bread made out Of or
dinary wheat flour, IN that { retains
the moisture better, in this respect
resembling rye bread somewhat.
pOrULAEIzING MACAEONI WHEAT
The Grain Growers Convention,
held at Fargo, last winter, appointed
a committee, consisting Of Professor
j. II. Shepperd OF the Agricultural
College, l.. a Ueland, Ejgeley, n. ID.
and +. Strong, Scovillc, n d. to look
after the macaroni wheat interests in
the Northwest, and 10 induce millers
to grind it, and people To- use it for
bread. This committee decided, at
meeting held in Edgeley, lately, to put
tirSt-Class expert on maCaroni wheat
In the field to look after its interest.
His work will be to advertise and
demonstrate the good qualities Of
bread, biscuit, cakes, etc, that are
made from macaroni flour, and TO
acquaint the milerS and elevator
men with the changes in handling
which are necessary to successfully
manufacture macaroni wheat into
flour, semolin, etc. The committee is
asking for contributions Of from five
to ten dollars each from those who
are interested in this problem TO de-
fray the expenses Of this work which
will assure prices for macaroni wheat.
The committee asks that contribu-
tiOns he sent to Prof. j. III. Shepperd,
Agricultural College, N. d.
1t has been learned that Minneapolis
millers used last year 100000 bushels
Of macaroni wheat flour, for blend
with ordinary flour, and sold it at top
prices: yet this year the New York
market intends to discriminate against
macaroni wheat, to the tune Of ten
cents per bushel less for this wheat
than for ordinary wheat, and the
Minneapolis millers talk OF making
the difference twenty cents per bushel.
In view Of these facts, it should be Of
interest to every farmer to assist this

PROCLAMATION OF THE MAYOR

Owing TO the dangerous aud disa-
greeable results following the use OF
rubber return balls. tin horns, chicken
suuakerS, ammunition canes, and the
throwing Of corn, wheat, flour, Oat-
meal. cornmcal and rice, it has been
deemed advisable by the mayor, act
ing under advise from the Carnival
Company, Carnival Committee and a
large number Of our citizens, TO prOhi-
bit the use by anyone during the
ing carnival week, OF any Of the above
throwing rice, corn, wheat, oatmeal,
cOrnmeal, flour, or any substitute
therefor or gathering up confetti from
the ground, which has been thrown,
and rethrowing the same, or using
rubber return balls, chicken squakers,
tin horns or ammunition canes will be
promptly arrested and punished ac-
cording to the law
1t is the desire of the Mayor and
Carnival Committee that all persons
attending the Carnival shall enjoy
themselves to the fullest extent and
have all the pleasure that the time
and occasion offers, but experience has
taught them that the use of the above
mentioned articles not only mars the
pleasure OF the entertainment, but is
dangerous to life, limb and property,
and for these reasons there use is pro-
hibited,

Macaroni wheat originally came
from Russia, where it is grown ia large
quantities in the dry districts along
the Eulga river, from kazan down to
the Azor Sea, aud east on the dry
Siberi plains beyond Arenburg,
wherc is impossible TO raise ordin-
airy }.ucat on account Of the extremely
low rainfall
The United States government took
up the work OF introducing il into the
semi.arid regions Of this country about
four years ago. The seed was distrlb-
uted in small quantities to all the
western experiment stations east of
the Rocky Mountains. but the North
and South Dakota stations were praC-
tcally the only ones that took enough
interest IN the matter TO raise ii on a
large enough scale for distribution
among the farmers,
BIG YIELDS
Wherever the wheat has been tried
in North Dakota, it has proved a splen-
did success At the North Dakota
Experiment Station. the yield per
acre for the last four years has been
four twO-tifths bushels more per acre
than the best fe or blue stem varie-
ties. In the drier portions OF the state
it has yielded even better, and some
sections report as high yield as fifty
bushels per acre.
This year macaroni wheat promises
to surpass all former records. During
the dry spell ia June, other varieties
Of wheat suffered greatly, while macar-
Oni wheat did not seem to be affected
by the drouth; and at harvest time it
looms up way above other varieties OF
wheat, and has a well-flled, compact
head Farmers who raise it are en-
thusiastic over the results obtained,
and it is estimated that there will be
400, 900 bushels OF this wheat raised in
North Dakota this year
There has been only one drawback
to it's general adoption. AT first It
was grown in such small quantities
that the elevator men and millers did
not want to buy it. Now that there
is plenty on the market, there is a
general Misunderstanding as TO what
J uses il can be put. 1t was originally
