No one can recOllect when the power
was invoked in New Jersey, and con-
sequently there was great surprise ex-
pressed month or SO ago when Grand
Master Alger made three Masons lat

ment was also made that Mr.. Cleve-
land would soon be received into the
order under similar circumstances.
New Jersey Masons are proud of the
fact that they always render it as diff
ficult as possible for an outsider to gain
admission to the order and there was a
great deal of grumbling at the action
of the Grand Master, but the storm
did not break until the meeting of the
grand lodge last week On that occa-

Roosevelt received his Masonic degree

but despite his distinguished position

over to the little lodge at Oyster Bay,

demonstrated his proficiency in open
lodge.

IF the greatest value for the semi-ari
districts.
The demand for both the wheat an'
lour, including semolina for making
nacaroni, during the winter has ST
increased that there is already prac,
ically little to be obtained, and there
las recently been a considerable in
.rease in prices. SO long, therefore
IS the grain is grown where it should

siderable increase in production for
he next years crop, and no doubt
here will be.
About 100000 bushels of the 1903
:rop have gone to Minneapolis, to
he lake cities. or to foreign cOun-
-ries, and the remainder has been
lsed at the local mills with the ex-
,eptiOn of a compare lively small
amount that has been sold for seed or
led to stock.
On the basis of the consumption of
the present crop and the evident in
crease in demand, the production of
next year ought to be 100000 BUSH
els. 1t is practically certain now that
the crop of 1903 was not SO large as it
was supposed to be at first.
Keep to Semi-Arid Districts.
1t is important, however, again to
emphasize the necessity of growing
the wheat strictly within the semi

to the farmer. And it is only the
grain produced in these districts that
is Of the high quality characteristic
Of this wheat.
In a former publication of this de-
partment (Bulletin No. 8, Macaroni
Wheats), a map is given of the area
east of which none of this class of
wheat should be sown. 1t is probable
now that this belt should be extended
much farther westward, almost to the
Rocky Mountains. We are finding
constantly that the grain will grow
with even less rainfall than we have
been granting to it. On the other
hand, the acreage in the eastern pOr

the Red river of the North, and east

and other mountain and Pacific states,
so long as the soil is not too greatly
lacking in humus
Use Pure Seed.
1t is important also for the farmer
to note that the name "durum'' is like
ly to be largely used for this wheat in
stead Of the term ''macaroni' in fu-
ture, especially in commercial circles,
and it is necessary to become familiar
with the term.
The word durum is really the COR
rect name for this group of wheats,
and besides, it is now found that the
name macaroni is misleading, as the
wheat is already known, from the re-
suits of many trials, to be excellent
for making bread as we'll as macaroni
Other kinds of wheat are often used
for making macaroni. although the
durums certainly makes the best prod
uct. The word durum means hard
and is, therefore, very appropriate, and
being a short. easy name ought to
come at once into USE
Finally, it is a repetition fully JUS
titled to call attention again to the
urgent need of the use of pure seed.

AN ENJOYABLE FESTIVAL

The eleventh annual grape picking
festival given yesterday at Eintracht
Hall by the Verein Oesterreich, Aus
TRANS speaking German and hailing
from the city of Vienna and the prov
inces adjacent, proved a great sue
cess. The entertainment started at 3
o'clock in the Afternoon and continued
till midnight. More than 1000 at
tended. The society is considering the
hiring of Mechanics Pavilion for the
next annual event.
The object of the ball was for the
benefit of the sick fund of the Verein
Oesterreich Society and from the
number in the hall and the various
forfeit games a good sum was realized.
On one side of the hall was arranged
a grape arbor, hung with real grapes
and vines, the object of the grape fes-
teal being that any one might pick
the grapes providing he was nor
caught. On being caught by the
guards who are on watch, the victim
was hustled to the pen. from which
he was released on payment of a fine.
This and many other games of the
fatherland swelled the revenue real
lied from the entrance fee. Dancing
and refreshments were provided until
midnight.

Constance Crawley Plays the
Difficult Role With
Much Grace.

Constance Crawley is the handsome
woman who plays the leading roles
with the Ben Greet Company. Last
season as Everyman this splendid &C
tress won the highest praise from all
the critics and audiences. The part of
Everyman is a particularly difficult
and trying one, the character being
OF the stage throughout the entire per-
fCrmance with the exception of a few
moments. The part has one important
speech after another, and only an ac-
tress with the greatest kind of per-
sonality and magnetism could success
fully sustain the difficult role Miss
Crawley also created a sensation in
Twelfth Night" and her appearance
in Much Ado About Nothing" is
awaited with interest.
Mr.. Greet has a happy faculty of
discovering and developing talent.
Edith Wynne Matthison, who was
pupil of Mr.. Greets, is now with Sir
Henry Irving, and among others who
studied under him are Mrs. Patrick
Campbell. Dorothea Baird, Basil Gill
and H. B. Irving. They are now stars
and the time is not far off when Con-
stance Crawley will take her place
with the best Of them. The opportuni-
ty TO work under Mr.. Ben Greet can
not fail 70 make a success for any one
with talent and brains.
