New Culture OF Wheat.

At Pullman, in the State of Wash
ington, there is in connection with the
State Agricultural College an expert
ment farm where are now growing
more than 100000 different kinds of
grain that are to be separately cut,
thrashed, assorted and bagged this sea-
son. Many of these are hybrid varie-
ties, of wheat, crossed fourteen years
ago by Professor Spillman, now in the
service of the United States govern
ment
The tracts sOwn to the several kinds
vary from one to five acres in extent
In the intervening years these several
varieties have been carefully sowed
the best seed selected and sown again
until properly established This sea-
son is the first in which any large
amount of seed has been secured, which
will be thrashed and distributed to
farmers who desire to test the new
kinds. 1t will be sold at a good price
to cover the large expense involved in
the long culture.
The new varieties are not vet named.
but will be before distribution. Some
combine early maturity with hardness
or good milling qualities and each has
some definite quality or qualities that
are reckoned desirable. The object, of
course is the development of varieties
that will prove of most advantage to
the farmers of that State. The i'm
provement of the wheat crop is mat
ter of the highest Importance to agri-
culturists and also to bread eaters

BOTH GAINED.

Man and Wife Fatten on Grape-Nuts.
The notion that meat is necessary for
real strength and the foundation of
solid flesh is now no longer as preva-
lent as formerly
Excessive meat eaters are usually
sluggish a part of the time because they
are not able to fully digest their food.
and the undigested portion is changed
into what is practically a kind of poi
son that acts upon the blood and nerves,
thus getting all through the system.
Il was a heavy meat eater" writes
an Ills man. land up to two years
ago, was in very poor health. l suf-
fered with Indigestion so that l only
weighed 50 pounds.
Then l heard about Grape-Nuts and
decided to try it. My wife laughed at
me at first, but when l gained to 125
pounds and felt so fine, she thought she
would eat Grape-Nuts too.
Now she is fat and well and has
gained 40 pounds. We never have indi-
gestion any more and seldom feel the
+ desire for meat. A neighbor of ours.
6S years old, was troubled with indi-
gestion for years; was heavy meat
eater, and now since he has been eating
Grape-Nuts regularly. he says he is
well and never has indigestion. i could
name lot of persons who have really
been cured of indigestion by changing
from heavy meat diet TO Grape-Nuts."

Sir We're de We're was the eldest son
of Sir Aubrey de We're, the soaneteer
and friend of Wordsworth. His broth
er, Aubrey de We're, was a more than
we'll known, famous poet, and to him
in his youth Walter Savage Lander
addressed the eXhortation:
Make thy proud name still prouder for
thy sons.
He had no sons, however, never hav-
ing married Neither had his brothers,
We're and Stephen. Thus the name, as
a family name, disappears.
The De Veres were early friends of
Tennyson's, and it was from them that
the poet took the name which he made
proverbial and symbolical of class
1.-The caste of We're de We're" Lady de
We're. the only Lady de We're of fact
then living, was inclined to complain
that her name should be bestowed upon
the black hearted Lady Clara of fiction.
Tennyson wrote dainty verses, but
was not master of dainty manners. He
growled: why should you care? But
Of course you don't. l didn't make
your namesake ugly, and 1 didn't make
her stupid. 1 only made her wicked"

A Conservative Speech.

There were some doubts in the COM
munity as to Homer Floyd's fitness for
position on the school board, owing
to certain lapses in his early educa-
ton; but his first speech in his official
capacity silenced the tongues of all
critics.
He listened to several Rotations
with a grave and interested air, and
at the end of the last one he rose to
address the school, "by request"
Some things are in my province as
member of the school board and some
are not" he said, with a genial smile
ITS within my province to say that
I never heard scholars answer up more
promptly than you children of District
Number Three.
"As to whether your answers were
or were not correct, it is not my place
to say. Your teacher knows, and in
her hands l leave the matter"

GIFTS ARE NOT WELCOME.

Is the Custom of Giving Wedding
Presents Likely to Be Abolished:
1T is the especial wish Of both
parties that no wedding presents should
be SENT" is the startling edict appended
to the announcement of a Forthcoming
society wedding in yesterdays Times,
according to the London Mirror.
The little sentence has cast a gloom
over the faces of many west end
tradesmen, for it foreshadows the
doom of expensive wedding gifts.
The explanation, according to the
| manager of one large house which does
a great business in wedding presents,
is that people are tired of the tyranny
of giving wedding presents.
''It is all very well for intimate
friends and relatives TO make presents
to a prospective bride and bridegroom"
he said, but the whole thing has be-
come a farce nowadays"
Mrs. BIS daughter becomes engaged,
and Immediately every one who has
ever been introduced to Miss B is
forced by etiquette to rush off and buy
an expensive present.
at is, of course, an imposition of the
worst kind, and the revolt against it
started during the last season.
1T would hurt some of the trades
men rather badly if it became a gen.
eral fashion, although l don't think
it will. A great many mothers in mar
rying their daughters rely on the pres
ents to compensate for slender dowries
and few jewels 1t is no uncommon
thing for, say, Lady Cadger, whose
daughter is to be married, to write
round to all her friends to this effect:
81 am sure you will be delighter
to hear that dear Muriel is marrying
Capt So-and-So. 1 know you won't
be offended and I thought it would
save you the horrible worry of choos
ing something if l just mentioned that
dear Muriel has no diamond tiara"
But this is not the worst. AS soon
as the marriage between Lady Cad
gers daughter and the lucky sutton
has been arranged-probably by the
designing mother-that lady institutes
a thorough search for the names of
everybody whom she has ever met or
frigidly bowed to in any society
Crush
Then, after the manner of a tailor,
or ,dressmaker, or a coal merchant
soliciting esteemed ORDERS Lady Cad
ger will issue invitations to every per-
son on the list, it being well under
stood that those who fail to respond
adequately to the kind invitation" are
Immediately blacklisted in Lady Cad
gers catalogue, and marked down as
desirable acquaintances-tO drop.
The position of those who hover on
the fringe of society is even worse
The invitation is yelled threat, for
they know full well that the invitation
to meet the duchess of I, for which
they have worked so assiduously
throughout the season, depends entirely
on the market value of the gift to Lady
Cadger's daughter.

Sinks, drains, eating and cooking

the best safeguard against infection,
and such a safeguard is found in the
universal household necessity-BOrax.
This simple preventive carries in it.

Unlike most disinfectants which de-

lures remedy, being easy to obtain and
easy to apply simple solution in hot
water being all the application neces-

can be obtained from any grocer or

household packages.
In addition to it's disinfecting quail

necessity, and can be used for soften

hands, makes an excellent dandruff re-

injury, while as an adjunct to the bath
it removes all odor of perspiration and
leaves the skin soft and yelvety.
