Those Railroad Rumors.


Those Railroad Rumors.
There has been such large
amount Of hot air erupted COLI
corning the different railroad
propositions that the Press is
loath to take the question up
again. But we had rather be
barking up the wrong tree than
bee caught mapping. So here
goes.
Word comes from Galveston
from newspaper with unusual
facilities for getting Mt the bot
tom of things pertaining to rail-
road, and especially Santa Fe
news, that the cutoff is in reality
to be built within the coming
year. A good deal of speculation
is being INDUCED in by the vari-
Gus towns to be affected by this
new road. Some of them think
that Coleman will get the cutoff
while Others say Ballinger. Some
even suggest that San Angelo
stands u good chance of being
made the junction point for the
new and branch lines.
1t seems to the Press that here
is place to put some of San An
gelo's energy and some of the
money that was to have been
given as u bonus to the Orient.
We could expect nothing better
for San Angelo than this. We
could tie to no better people than
the Santa Fe. What's the matter
with getting busy and getting this
business down to where we could
see more about it?
Then there's the other talk
about the Arkansas Pass coming
on further north. We ought to
have that road on general princi-
Piles and more especially if San
Antonio will join us III trying to
get it to come our way. 1t would
certainly be to San Antonio's
best interests to assist us in any
way she could even to the matter
of digging up bit.
San Angelo is within San An
tonio's natural trade territory
and it would pay the latter city to
get connecting line built even if
she had to pay good stiff price
for it. What goes to great many
of the other Texas cities would 60
to San Antonio if we could only
get down there without going all
around the globe to accomplish
that feat.
The Orient people say that
work will begin on their lines
north of Sweetwater at an early
date. There seems TO be room to
believe this. At any rate we all
hope that it Is true and viii! be
found ready to do our parts when
work does begin, be it however
long delayed.
Now with all this can we not
get at least one of these lines?
Other towns are going to put
forth every effort to take them
away from San Angelo and We
should be wide awake to the stu,
alton. Let the business men anC

dictate that the world grows bet
ter. There are those we know
who will deny that this is true,
yet if they will but broaden their
scope and look for those things
which are good and not for those
which are bad, they will see more
readily that this Is indisputable.
Diplomacy has won several inn
portant points within the old
year. These include number of
cases in which points concerning
the peace of the world were at
stake. A number of instances
where matters of worldwide i'm
portance have been submitted to
boards of arbitration might be
cited for example. The general
public, however, reads the news
papers so much now that this
were supernuous. Diplomacy
has II number of tasks before it
for the year just ushered in.
Among them is the relation of
the South to the negro, or rather
what the northern republicans
who hold the reins Of government
will do to the South for having
tried to purify its ballot and
make its elections in reality a
voice of the people, and not to be
controlled by the party having
the most money.
There are n number of other
questions to be solved by tho peo-
pie through their duly accredited
representative during the ensuing

things and more to think about.

MACARONI OR DURUM WHEATS
Work Of the United States Department Of Agriculture
GUY ELLIOTT MITCHELL.

The efforts of the Department of Ag-
riculture not only contemplate the in
PRODUCTION into the United States of
improved plants and crops from foreign
countries to take the place of those
which American farmers are already
growing, and the breeding up and bet
tering of those which we now have; but
also the introduction of plants onto
great areas of country now thought to
be unfit for farming.
Encroachment is constantly being
made upon the waste places of the
land; the semi-desert and the low
places, by the introduction of crops
which, through long years and centu-
RES of acclimatization in similar
regions of the Old World, have become
either drouth or water resistant.
A striking example of this sort of
work, which has already proven a high
success, is the introduction of the maca-
ROM wheat plant, or, as it is more
properly called, durum wheat.
To Establish Macaroni Factories.
1t was Secretary Wilson's idea at
hrst to introduce the culture of this

intimated that the millers were at lib

Year before last some six million
bushels of this durum or macaroni
wheat was grown; last year the crop
had increased to about eleven million
bushels and the present crop is esti-
mated by Mr. Carleton at from twenty
to twenty-five million bushels.
But the industry has but barely

ers found arrayed against them the
whole combination of Northwestern
millers, who said that the wheat was
poor, made only inferior flour and
would not make edible bread. But the
farmers had the Department of Agri-
culture back of them, and Mr.. Wilson
had his own conviction about durum
wheat and Northwestern millers, and,
moreover, he had the courage to back
them up. The trouble with the millers
was that with the milling apparatus
which they used for grinding ordinary
No. 1 Red, they could not grind the
harder durum, and SO they forced the
price of wheat down in the market and
threatened to have Secretary Wilson
removed unless he stopped advising
farmers to grow durum wheat. The
Secretary, it seems, held his job, and
the farmers had faith in him and con-
tinued planting durum wheat to the
extent of several million additional
acres each succeeding year.
