NEW WHEAT DISEASE.
"YelIow Berry" Found in Several
States by Crop Experts.

Aberdeen. S. D., Aug. l6.-Professors
LeClarc and Chilcott. experts Of the
agricultural department, who are trav-
cling through the wheat-growing states
from Texas to North Dakota. investi-
eating crop conditions, were in Aber-
deem and vicinity for several days.
They report the discovery of a new
wheat enemy, heretofore unknown to
the department, which for want of a
better name they call yellow berry,
The disease consists of a yellow spot
on the berry, which changes the COM
position of the berry from protein to
starch, lowering the food value of the
grain. The experts estimate that the
value of the grain is reduced at least
2 cents a bushel by the existence of
yellow berry in a wheat field.
The professors found but very few
wheat fields in South Dakota affected
with the new disease. but report the
trouble prevalent in Kansas and Ne

Evidently it was impossible to learn
anything from so secretive a woman
Nevertheless George tried another
tack. do you know if Mrs. Jersey

He asked this because it struck him
that Mrs. Jersey might have been
tempted to write out her relations with
the vane family.
Miss Bull did not reply to this ques-
ton herself ''rhat is not my bust

possession of her aunts papers"

Margery artlessly.
"What did they consist Off" asked
Brendon.
"You need not answer that ques-

and from that moment Margery pre-
served lumpish silence. George rose
in despair.
"You will not help me-" he said, TAX

He saw nothing for 1t but to go, yet
he hesitated to abandon the chance OF
learning something from Miss Bull. He
stared at her pinched, white face and
wondered If 1t would be any good ap-

his business to strangers, especially
anything regarding Dorothy, whom he
looked upon as a sacred vestal not to

that to mention his love in her pres.
ence would be like casting pearls be-
fore swine. He therefore turned to
Miss Bull, who stood with folded
hands, eying him frigidly. IF I could

Miss Bull cast a shrewd glance at
him, rapidly made up her mind and
told Margery to go. The girl looked
at him tigerishly, as she was evidently
Jealous. and sulkily withdrew.
