NO SUCH THING As corn WHEAT.
Tho Agricultural Department Answers
q Flood Of inquiries From Farmers.

Tho Agricultural Department Answers
Flood OF inquiries From Farmers.
Washington, April 9.yrhe depart-
ment of agriculture reports that enor-
nous quantities OF letters are being re-
cieved from farmers in all parts Of the
country asking for information con-
corning a so-called "corn-wheat," US
ually at the same time requesting sam
pies for trial.
These letters are the result of wide
" published newspaper reports. The
department authorizes the state that
there is no such thing as corn wheat"
and that II is probable no hybrid Of
corn and wheat could ever be produced
or. at any rate, one that would be fer
tile. The grain which caused the news
paper publications, the department
says, is known correctly as Polish
wheat, although 1t Is not native to Po-5
land as the name might suggest. but
it's original home probably IS some
where in the Mediterranean region.
The newspaper reports, the depart
pment says. are correct in saying that
the heads and grains OF this wheat are
very large. the grains being In many
cases actually twice the Size of ordi-
nary wheat. The statement that 1t
yields from sixty to 100 bushels Is.
however, probably considerably exag
Grated, though there may be instances
In Idaho and Washington, in which the
yield may reach from sixty to seventy
five bushels an acre. The experiments
made by the agricultural department
and by experiment stations in few
places show that the yield is rather
disappointing.
The wheat has been grown only ex-
perimentally In this country, except in
a few places. From experiments so
far made, the inference would be. that
the grain would be good as hog feed.
Polish wheat is much restricted in Its
adaptation, and, the department says,
could not be successfully grown any
where east of the Mississippi river, but
only on the great plains region, In
Washington, Idaho, Montana and other
parts Of the mountain and Pacific states
where grain is usually grown. It has
great resistance to drowth. The de-
partment has no seed in stock.

FEW MEN ATTEND.
Startling Statistics Presented 70 Minis
terjal Association at Des Moines.


Des Moines. April s.-When Secre-
tary Charles Johnson told the Minis
terial Association few days ago that
actual count made of men who attend
ed church services and men who visit
ed saloons and other places of lues-
tionable or legitimate amusement
showed that during single week but
1906 men went to church while $780,
$40 went to the other places, the cler-
gymen We're aghast, speechless and
APPALLED,.
"The public will never believe IT.
said they in substance. And fearing
this they decided that the figures ought
to be made public. That they were
submitted soon leaked out and some OF
the ministers have referred to them in
sermons preached on the growth OF
vice and immortality in Des Moines.
Mr.. johnson, being asked for the fig
ures, was reluctant to give them out
on account OF the attitude taken by the
association which he had addressed
Being convinced, however, that their
substance had reached the ear of the
public thru members of the association
or those present at Its meetings, he
could no longer object to the specific
figures being given publicly. They al
ready have formed the subject for dis
cussion among the directors OF the Y.
NJ. C. A, who are discussing plans sug-
gested by Mr.. johnson for reaching
the young men who do not come within
the influence of the church and relig-
ious societies.
The attendance Is not estimated, but
is computed from actual counts made
by agents acting for Mr.. Johnson.
These were stationed where they could
count the men who entered saloons and
church edifices; the counts were made
at different hours on different days and
at different services at the church. The
result in perfectly accurate statement
on the subject.
The Average at Saloons.
The average attendance of men at
saloons was found to be 62 l-3 per
hour, counting ten hours for a day
though they run from a. M to 10
p. m, and six days in the week. The
number who visit the seyenty-nine re-
tail saloons and the eleven wholesale
liquor houses during week, reaches
1861
Mr.. Johnson was securing statistics
to compare church attendance with
attendance not only at saloons, but at
places of amusement.
