Nh Hill then cited magazine ar.

subject of "How Roosevelt Uncovered

considerable length to analyze the ar

the president was not responsible for

long neglect to prosecute them he
was really the exalted instrument

Mr.. Hill then took up the Philippine

selfgovernment, but independence. He
argued for the election Of United

ferring to Senator Depew's candidacy

Better Than Bluestem.
Since 1864 these varieties have had
thorough testing and their cultivation
is now so established that larger
acreage has been sown this year than
ever before. The yield per acre out
ranks the best Fife or Bluestem va
rieties of hard wheat, as high as SO
bushels per acre being reported.
There are two questions which
have been difficult to answer, name
ly. the market and demand for Maca-
roni wheats. The seminola factories
of France are great consumers and
their increasing importation from all
Sources gives good outlet for the
American overplus. But the best
market will be in this country when
mills are equipped with machinery
fitted for its hard grind. Pastes,
seminola for macaroni manufacture,
and the hard gluten for edible pur-
poses will require an increasing sup
ply. Elevators specially erected for
careful storage will handle the out
put OF the great plains. Already so
large macaroni factories are in oper-
alton in this country. In bread maxi
ing its use is destined to become more
and more popular and the grits made
from Dqrum wheats make excellent
breakfast food. Out of the so varie-
ties shown. some will be utilized for
one thing, and some for another. The
ftNYa nil
%heats and many a land poor wheat
raiser, operating now with scanty re-
turns, will in time reap abundant har-
vests and smile at his former incre-
hulity respecting the new-fangled
wheat whose flinty nature he now
disparages
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1904-12-22

When the hand of the Egyptian
mummy liberated the seed wheat
which was claimed TO be thus discoy-
cred a score of years ago. the farmer
was amazed at the reported vitality
OF the seed which could germinate
after 5000 years of storage in an an
eient crypt. The first glance at the
modern Macaroni or Durum wheats
naturally leads one to imagine it to
De petrified by a like age of entomb-
ment. Flinty, almost crystal, it holds
its nutritious stores incased in a crust
or shell so hard as TO seemingly make
II an impossible proposition for mill
ers; but as a squirrel knows how to
get through a flinty walnut. SO tine
invention of men has discovered the
machinery necessary to grind the
Durum wheats into the finest product.
A Rust Proof Wheat.
The United States department of
agriculture must be credited with
much Of the prosperity which now en-
riches the thrifty farmer of today.
Unceasing experiments presently lead
to the introduction of new cereals
and feeds, inasmuch as staple crops
become infected with disease or are
ravaged by pests Hence the Egyp-
tian corns, whose vast acreage now
cover with kaffir, Milo-maize and
sorghum the semi-arid plains where

A NUNRERO
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1904-12-22
Adaptability of Great West.

France and Italy have long been
the market for Russias output of a
product which was eagerly sought
after. Macaroni is as old as the hills.
and hitherto seemed not to be thought
OF as homegrown product possible
to America. Spain. Tunis and Egypt
successfully grew the Durum wheats.
while many other semi-tropical lands
grew them exclusively.
But the alkaline nature of our
great plains shows their adaptability
to Macaroni wheats. and now success
sive crops without failure have dissi-
pated the idea that they are a foreign
product. The famous Volga region
finds its counterpart in many regions
in our great West.
The conditions of the Northwest
present other factors which make the
wheat belt vastly greater since the in
PRODUCTION of the Durum wheats. At
no point on the hundredth meridian
north or south is the rainfall less than
is inches. while the volga region reg
isters but II inches annually; so that
the country possesses an area for
Durum wheats. where wheat growing
is now practically a failure, greater
Tar than the Volga region of Russia,
which has had the record of being the
finest wheat growing region in the
world Our country on the hun
dredth meridian has greater humidity,
a less degree OF heat, and richer soil:
so what wonder II at this time the

Looks Like Barley.

The grains are hard and CLASSY
yellowish white, and rather large.
The fields of macaroni wheat look
like barley fields Conditions for
their cultivation must somewhat CO.
incide with such as mark their native
habitat. For instance, given an alti-
tude. a climate and soil such as the
table lands of Russia afford, and
these wheats will prove certain of
successful cultivation. Such condi-
tions abound in the West. hence
Americas wheat belt is by them ex-
tended far beyond former limits of
wheat growing. In regions of sum-
mer heat and drought, in attitudes
where rainfall is scantier. they root
themselves deep into a fertile soil
and hold out TO win for their culti-
vator rich harvests. where desert once

only farmers, but also millers. for
years in order to graduate them up to
the utility Of these Durum or maca-
roni wheats. 1t has taken 35 years
to bring these varieties into even a
partial favor, but the past two years
have given great impetus to their
growth and use. Now there is a de-
cided change in the opinion of prac-
tical men, and another year will
demonstrate the wisdom of forcing
them into the front rank of American
cereals. They are essentially drought
resisting. rust proof wheats which
thrive where ordinary hard wheats
fail. In appearance they are tall
growing. heavily bearded. harsh
chaffed varieties, highly colored, the
spikelets two to four-grained. The
chaff is sharply keeled and narrowly
arched.
