to them that DR.. G.. e. Saunders Of the
central experiment farm has lately
made report on this subject. Among
other items it is noted that, although
closely related to true wheat, both
spelt and emmer are, in a commercial
sense quite distinct from it and should
be compared rather with oats and bar
ley.
1t is thought undoubtedly possible to
make flour from emmer and spelt, but
extremely improbable that this will
ever be done in America. Meanwhile
these grains are being used for the
feeding of cattle, etc., and it is for such
purposes that they deserve considera-
ton.
The most striking characteristic Of
spelt and emmer stated by DR.. Saun-
ders as distinguishing them at once
from all the true wheats is the fact
that the chat adhercs to the grain
after it has passed through an ordinary
thrashing process. The grain itself is
usually long, Of rather large size and
very hard, resembling the macaroni
wheats rauser than the ordinary
wheats. Tie straw Of the emmers S
usually rather short and thin ana
sometimes is net sufficiently strong 20
prevent lodging of tic grain. In spelt
the straw is coarser.
The heads. of emmer are essentially
short, compact and flat, the spillelets
being set very close together, while
the heads Of spelt are long and open,
the spillelets being set far apart. All the
emmers are bearded, but some of the
spells are bcardess. Spelt is generally
of coarser type than emmer, and the
proportion of husk present in the
thrashed grain is usually larger
Roughly speaking, one may say that
emmer weighs from thirty to thirty
eight pounds and spelt from twenty
two to thirty pounds per measured
bushel.
Both emmer and spelt have been
found so far as tested at the expert

A SALOON
BURGLAR MAKES NEAT HAUL IN
THE MURPHY PLACE OF BUS
MESS AT EARLY HOUR.
Back Door Opened by Cutting Hole
and Removing Bar and Then Bur-
glar Proceeded to Help Himself to
About $50 in Cash Register and
$40 in Small Bank.

NJ. II. Murphy's saloon at the corner
of First street and Grand VEN was
burslarized between 2 and 3 o'clock
this morning. the burglar entering
through the real door and taking be-
tween $50 and $50 left in the cash reg
lister for change for the early business
this morning and in a small safe be,
longing to Jimmie Murphy, the son of
the proprietor, the latter containing
about $40. The police have been no,
tilted, but hal not made any arrests
at last reports.
The burglar planned well his work.
executing his plans with a good deal
of precision. The back yard was en-
tered through a gate in the wall along
the Grand avenue side. There is a
door leading from the yard to the sec,
ond story of the Murphy building. This
a closed, but not locked, as the sec,
ond story is occupied as sleeping
rooms. The IGOR from this little hall
to the saloon was broken open and the
saloon entered in hal way.
The back dOor is closed and fast
ened with a bar in two iron staples on
the doOr facing. The bar holding the
door is kept in place by a bolt driven
into the facing of the door above the
open staple on the south side. The
burglar had taken the trouble to prop
e-iy mark the door from the outside
to show him where to work when he
made his attempt to gain entrance,
He first tried to raise the bar through
the opening between the door and the
facing. but finding he could not dc
help out the bolt, he deliberately cut q
! hole through the panel of the door al
the right place, probably using a peck
etknife on the soft, thin wood, making
an opening about two inches wide and
perhaps ten inches long. through
which he thrust his hand. The cash
register and Jimmie's little bank were
then robbed, the burglar retiring ir
good order.
The discovery of the robbery was
made this morning when the place
was opened for business Inc the pc
lice were notified.
