some hours in an attempt to rectify
matters, but without avail.
Then some of the farmers neighbOrs
came oa the scene, but after much
tlnkering they also had to retire dis
comhted. Finally, a young man from
nelghborlng farm was asked to try
his hand On the job. He looked the
pump over, hammered at it for a while,
and after little more tinkering, had it
IN working order again. The owner
of the pump was delighted.

Keeping Records on the rort,,

The Bureau of Animal Industry has
published a very valuable book giving
Records of Dairy Cows in the United
States" This publication contains
valuable information and excellent
halftone illustrations of record COWS of
the country. It urges dairymen to
adopt better business methods on the
farm-a complete system of bOOkkeep-
ing whereby definite knowledge of the
sources of profit and loss may be ascer-
tanned. In no department connected
with the farm is there more need for
absolute data than in the dairy. While
village merchants and grocers, for ex-
ample average about alike in their
knowledge of their businesses, their
prices and profits being nearly equal,
the records show that there are pro-
gressive and unprogressive dairymen,
one making a good profit while his
next door neighbor with the same soil
and market may be losing money. The
difference in their profits therefore
must be accounted for largely by the
difference in the intelligence put into
their business. Experts of the Depart
ment of Agriculture believe that one
fourth of the COWS in the entire coun-
try kept for milk do not pay for the
cost OF keeping and nearly one-fourth
more fail to yield an annual profit. The
object of the book issued by the Bureau
is to show dairymen the Importance of
keeping records complete enough so
that it will be possible to avoid the
handling of improbable animals and
to bring the dairy industry of the coun-
try up to a paying basis.

Trials of a Turkey Raiser.

Members Of the House of Representa-
tlVes are having quite a lot of fun at
the expense of Representative Charles
d. Lands of Indiana, who has been
making some experiments in turkey
raising.
Representative Lands bought a few
pairs of bronze turkeys, paying a big
price for them, spent a lot of money in
turkey house, with all the comforts
of turkey home, heated ROOMS for the
expected chicks, ETC., and laid in a stock
of literature on how to get rich on tur-
key raising.
At the outset one of the finest hens
became dissatisfied with the Iuxuries of
home and finding the trammels of the
modern method distasteful made of for
the woods. The other hens stayed at
home, however, and in due time
brought out five broods of fifteen or so,
fine little chicks. They were being ten
derby reared but one day escaped and
went into wheat field for a change of
diet. A rain storm overlook them,
they caught cold and every young
turkey died. Turkey-raiser Lands was
disconsolate over his loss and while
he was bewailing the fate of the young
brood, in stalked the insurgent turkey
hen from the woods and behind her
was a husky brood of woodland raised

Wheat

not been considered valuable for wheat
raising.
The Introduction of macaroni wheat
into the United States came about
through the pilgrimage to Europe and
Asiatic Russia in 1899 of Mark A.
Carleton, of the Department of Agri-
culture, (then the assistant in charge
Of cereal investigation.) He was sent
there by the Secretary of Agriculture
in order to gain all possible information
in regard to macaroni wheat and to
select such varieties as would probably
succeed in the great grain regions and
especially in semi arid portions where
the ordinary bread wheats were some
times at best but an Indifferent crop.
Mr.. Carleton made thorough explora-

and the Weather Bureau are mutually
agreeable. The value of the Weather
Bureau records is appreciated and the
thorough cooperation of it's officials is
acknowledged. With the increase in
the number Of observing stations and
more comprehensive and complete
meteorological data at hand theweather
service will naturally be a still more
important factor in the adjustment of
claims and the trial of suits in which
the question Of weather in any Of it's
phases may enter.
Macaroni Wheat Introduction.
Mention has been recently made Of
the great value to the American farm
er of the importation of a new variety
OF wheat known as Durum or macaron1
wheat AS has been stated this grain
has been instrumental in bringing into
production land which heretofore has

was made in this country was of an
inferior quality and was sold as such
on the market, being produced from
the bread wheats. Now there are 20
or more factories using American ma
caroni wheat and proudly branding
their products, "Made in America from
American Grown Wheats." Macaroni
flour is also used for the purpose OF
blending. 1t is mixed with low grade
of bread wheat flour making most
valuable article for bread making and
pastry cooking. Macaroni flour is also
used for ordinary bread making. Tests
made by the Department of Agricul-
ture and by private families have de-
monstrated that bread made from
macaroni flour is very palatable and
nutritious, many people preferring 1t
to ordinary wheat bread. The use OF
the flour extends also to many other

OF MACApON STATION

1905 cannot be accurately determined
at this time, estimates run from $4,000
600 to 100000 bushels-this is a
comparatively new crop in the United
States. Instead of importing macaroni
wheat for the purpose of manufac-
turing domestic macaroni, the United
States is now exporting annually about
100000 bushels to France and Italy
and other European countries, for it
has been found by the manufacturers
there that the American grown wheat
makes most excellent product. Sec
rotary Wilson stated that the value of
the macaroni wheat industry in this
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1906-02-28

country now reaches more than $1,000.
900 annually.
With so many splendid possibilities
in it's favor, officials of the Department
of Agriculture believe that macaroni
wheat has a great future. Bread and
pastry made from it will find well
come addition to the tables of the
American people while the introduce
ton of the wheat into the Great Plains
region has proved an inestimable boon
to the farmers of the semi-arid belt,
extending from North Dakota to Texas.
While it may take some time to edu-
cate both producers and consumers to
it's excellence and value it is believed
that macaroni wheat and it's products
will give it high rank among standard
farm crops.

articles OF common diet such as rolls.
bread-sticks, griddle cakes, etc., and
officials Of the Department of Agricul-
ture think there is no reason why a
breakfast food far excelling a majority
of those in common use at the present
time, both as to palatability and nu-
tritiveness, cannot be prepared from it.
AS a stock food macaroni wheat and
it's products have been found by actual
experiments to equal if not surpass
bread wheat Owing to the fact that it
is a surer crop than the latter, with a
heavier yield, farmers will learn to
turn to this abundant source of protein
in using balanced rations.

set on STOOL and the slow seeping
of water through the wick is started
by suction. The wick at the end of
the long leg of the improvised siphon
is separated into several strands, one
strand being placed in each pot to be
watered. The caretaker may now go
away for the day with the assurance
that his flowers will receive all the
water necessary. In warm weather,
it is best to cover the pail and wrap the
tube cloth, to prevent the wick from
drying. The German inventor Of this
device says it has always worked sue"
cessfully.
