A prorheey as to Wheat.

Cnquestionably those now living
may see the time when in some years
the United States will import wheat
If surplus can be found anywhere.
AS a rule, however, we may exLect
to continue to export grain forever
The Oldest and most densely popu-
lated countries Of the world continue
to export grain, and while the world
endures there will always be ex-
changes Of surpluses. AS to our pro-
duction we are probably nearing our
maximum under present methods OF
cultivation. Ii is, however, easily pos
sible TO double our output by better
methods Of agriculture which we shall
gradually adopt as increasing prices
caused by the pressure Of population
warrant the increased outlay IN pro-
ductiOu.

Once More perpetual Motion"

David Uniapon, q full-blooded native
of the norther territory, Australia, who
combines a genius for mathematics
with a passion for music, claims to
have invented a machine which will
secure perpetual motion. He is now
in Adelaide, the capital Of South Aus
tralia, seeking the means Of testing
the feasibility of his mechanism. He
explains that the forces which he pro
poses to use are grayitation and mo-
mentum and he had to come to Ade-
laide to seek the assistance OF the alb
orinines department IN procuring four
beveled wheels, spindle. a tube and
so on. He is confident that when he
gets these requisites he can put to.
gether a machine which will bring
perpetual motion appreciably nearer.

ANY preparation Of wheat or oats
put into water that is below the boil

ach of person sensitively constituted
refuses to do anything with the pasty
mass. 1t is sent into the second stom-

nipulations of any cook, good or bad.
The starch of the grains, changed to

the small boys fingers are protected
from injury resulting from overwork.
The device is Of such size as to fit

OF the blades is of flexible material,
and upon the exertion OF a certain
amount of pressure the marble is
shot from the device as IL projected

1t has been a sad handicap for the
small boy that at the opening of the
marble season he has not been able
to play marbles more than four or
five hours per day until his hands
got In trim from practice, but with

the image is inverted; the eye inverts
