From our Correspondent.
The electrical storm which swept
over this section of the county on
Monday night did, untold damage
to our crops, tributary to Sou1is.
There is about twelve farmers who
lost their entire crops by wind and
hail, we seem to have escaped still
luckier than further north and west
across the Canadian borders, where
there was even some lives lost and
everything in the path Of the storm
was swept clean.

Macaroni Wheat.

There has hccn much discussion in
this section concerning the merits of
macaronl, or f9rum wheat, and
there are many conflicting opinions
regarding. it's productions, as an in
dustry IL is more than probable
that some OF the statements pub
llsned IN the trade journals are
prompted by prejudice and adverse
trade interests. The South Dakota
Agricultural College has issued a
bulletin dealing with the subject,
showing the milling and chemical
characteristics of maCaroni wheat,
and its adaptation for making bread
and macaroni. This bulletin shows
that there are many kinds of maca
rom wheat. each with It's own pecul-
larltleS. Observations by the writer
i'm this section the past two seasons
have convinced us that macaroni
wheat is the most satisfactory and
certain crop and the least susceptible
To rust and blight. Last year when
rust was prevalent throughout the
northwest, those who had fields of
macaronl were free from the scourge.
The yield was large and the berry
plump and bright.
Last Sunday the Standard man.
i'm company with A. w. Lndquist.
of Wllmot, drove over about forty
nllcS of territory and examined a
good many fields. and the finest field
of wheat we saw was one Of 100 acres
of macaroni wheat i'm Lake township
belonging to Mr.. Llndquist. This
wheat stood shoulder high, was as
headed. Mr.. Lindqulst informed us
that he had Sowed two bushels OF
seed to the acre and the field looked
good for yield of 30 bushels to the
acre. There was no sign of rust IN
the field
We take the following regarding
this wheat from the South Dakota
Agricultural College reports:

The uses of the macarOni wheats
are more extended than those of the
