square of wheat the stocks of which
are as large as a good-sized lead pencil
and about six feet tall. The heads are
fully six inches long are now heavy with
large plump grains almost ripe.
Last fall his brother, A. Adams of
Juliaetta, Idaho. sent him one head of this
wheat and from this single head he will
produce at least a peck of fine, large
grains. In the summer of 1904 A. Adams
was prospecting for coal in British Co
lumbia, near the Alaska line when he
found one head of this wheat growing
wild. He took 1t home and planted it
and from the single head raised seven
pounds of grain. In the spring of 1906
he sowed the seven pounds and har-
vested 1916 pounds. Mr.. Adams says that
he has raised as much as 125 BUSH
els to the acre. This year he has 800
acres planted.
State Chemist l. S. Jones of Idaho, who
examined the grain of the wheat says.
THE kernels are plump and sound and
with the best blue stem for flour making
purposes
The heads of the wheat are much longer
and larger than the ordinary varieties
and the grains, too, are much larger
and plumper. The heads are heavily
bearded.

Hardware Company In
New Building.

Gadsden, June 2.-(Special)-The Gaes-
den Water company is once more getting
insistent for a settlement of its differ
ences with the city, and is again sug-
costing that unless some sort of sat-
factory settlement is made the water
supply will be shut off. The city is in
debted about $4,000, and the franchise of
the company has expired. The company
would like to have new grant while the
city has long declared its intention OF
owning it's water supply. Meanwhile the
service of the old company is very I'M
satisfactory. and yet it is not justified In
making improvements without some new
contract with the city. The city on the
other hand has not been able to market
bonds authorized for the building of
plant at a satisfactory figure, and the
problem becomes more acute as time
wears on.
