SOUTH AFRICAN RUNNER
PRAISES MAN WHO BEAT HIM

London. Sept. SC. Hefferon, the
South African runner, who got second
prize in the English Marathon, paid
a big tribute to John J. Hayes, the
American, in a public letter written
before he left England for his home.
He said that he had not the least
doubt that Hayes was the best man
in the race, and that he richly merit
ed all the honor the victory brought
him. The excessive heat, he thinks,
knocked all of the Englishmen out
of the contest so soon. At the start
he thought the most dangerous men
were Duncan, Lord and Appleby, and
Svanberg, the Swede.
Tom Longboat, he thought, was a
fake. and mentions that he knew he
would beat the redskin when they
first met Friends of Hefferon pro-
tested Hayes, but after the race was
over Hefferon ordered the objection
withdrawn at once. The South Afri-
can admitted that he had been train
ing for the Marathon for a long time,
and that he is no through with it
yet. He expects to be on the firing
line at Athens in 1910.

VIII Pitch Every Other Day III Ne

New York, Sept. S.-Christy
Matthewson is about to assume the
most monumental task that major
league pitcher ever had thrust upon
his shoulders. He has expressed a
willingness to pitch three games a
week for the rest of the season, pro-
vided that the Giants are at any
time in danger of dropping out of
first place,
Matthewson is the most powerful
ly built pitcher in America, and
though he believes that his constitu-
tion is rugged enough to stand such
continuous strain on his muscles,
it looks as If the task We're too much
to ask of any one man. He is deter
mined to make the effort, however,
and If he succeeds he will have per-
formed the most wonderful feat that
baseball has seen since the National
league was organized, back in the
70's.
Some time ago McGraw admitted
that he had but two pitchers of the
magnitude of stars, and that on Wiltse
and Mathewson he would have to rest
the chances of New York winning the
pennant. The other pitchers can be
used when there is not much at
stake. but, speaking generally, it is
up to these two men to land the
championship. Wiltse is frail of
physique, and to ask him to pitch
more than once in three days would
be almost inhuman. McGraw eX-
planned the situation to his men and
asked Matty what he thought of it.

other day until the end of the sea-
son, TCplltu luG SlNdb IlbNhNA' H''H
If you think it a good idea I am per-
fectly willing to take a chance
"You are on" said McGraw. and
It was decided to put Matthewson up
against a proposition mat would
make almost any athlete quail.
Then it was that the plan of work
ing Matty three times week if nee
essary came to the front. This is not
any idle talk. McGraw and MatE
have made up their minds and really
il tend to go that far to win the pen
nant "Mathewson," explained the
Giant chieftain, 'is in better shape
than he has been at any time this

cording to the evidence, Midland went

REPORT ON alaska
WHEAT
UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO
PUBLISHES BULLETIN.
Gives Facts Regarding the Newly Dis
covered Cercal-NOt Worth Any
More Than Ordinary Grain.
(By r. E. Hyslop, AgronomIst.) }

(By X. e. Hyslop, ABronomlsl')
On account Of the numerous in
quiries coming into our station we
find 1t necessary to issue this presi
bulletin concerning the so-called
Alaska" wheat.
This wheat, when given ample space
or conditions favorable to the indl-
vldual plant, has a branching head
borne on a rather tough straw at a
height Of between four and five feet
The mesh bears two and three kerr
nels When grown under close field
conditions the head tends to be much
smaller, branches less, and the mesh
bears from one to two kernels, very
seldom three. II heads grown under
these conditions alone were examined
the impression would be obtained that
this wheat never bears but two kerr
nels TO the mesh, a mistake which
some writer's appear to have made.
The boards, while not numerous,
are dark in color and considerably
stronger than we find on our common
wheats, but not so long or stiff as
those found on the Durums or Mac
aroni wheats The normal kernel is
light in color, short and plump, with
an unusually open groove which al
lows the kernel to be easily broken
ir threshing. A cross section shows
the interior to be white and powdery
with comparatively little horny
starch. The shrunken kernels natur-
ally are harder.
Taking everything into considera-
tion am led to conclude that this is
the Egyptian or Miracle wheat. a
Poulard and that 1t belongs TO that
variety OF the Egyptian known as Ell
dorado, which is very closely related
to the Seven-headed variety.
The Poulards are peculiarly adapt
ed to dry regions. but never have been
grown to any extent in America. Their
yields have never proved to be of such
q nature as to warrant their extern
sive growth. even for stock food. And
the inferlority Of the flour produced
from them has prevented their use to
any extent for the production Of
bread.
The high yields elaine; for the
wheat in this section Of the country,
in some cases 2-l bushels per acre
are fabulous. one of the promoters
states that from one head of the
wheat he obtained seven pounds, from
these seven pounds he produced 1545
pounds. or a yield in round numbers
o. 220 fold. 1t is from these figures
that the yields noted in the various
papers, and in the circular OF the
Adams-H -Hobe Seed Grain company, of
Jullaetta, Idaho, are computed. To
show the righteousness of computing
yields in this way, we determined in
a couple of cases, the number Of
grains produced from one seed Of Lit
tie Club grown under favorable con-
ditlons in our breeding plat. One
plant produced 1176, the other 1900
kernels Now, reasoning as this seed
company has done, If we should plant
one bushel of this Little Club to the |
acre, we would obtain 1176 or 1900 |
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-09-08

bushels. This would be a rather high
yield, even In Idaho.
This year the company had 700
acres in the wheat grown on different
farms in this locality. A 3O-acre
tract near Moscow, which was thresh-
ed in the middle Of August went about
32 bushels per acre. Mr.. Adams stat
ed at that time that his best yields
had been 35 bushels. He supplement
ed this remark, however, with the
statement that his stands were poor
In every case. But considering the
large acreage, the fact that several
different farmers grew the crop, and
the effect Of close stand noted above
We must take this as an indication at
least, of the yielding power Of the
wheat. This, however, would not be
considered an extra large yield for
this country.
The analysis of the wheat upon
which the company appears to base
IT, hopes amounts to practically moth
ing in determining the bread making
qualities of the flour. 1t is true. that
Bluestem wheat which analyZes high
er in portein than Little Club makes
a better quality Of flour, but it is also
true that Macaroni wheat which an
alyzes higher in protein than Blue
stem makes a lower class of flour,
and consequently is Disseminated
against by the miller. The low grade
flours turned out from our mills usu-
ally show a higher pOrtein content
than the patent. Corn has consider
able portein, but the chemist seems
unable to find any gluten (that all
essential part of a good flour.) Even
II the chemist had found a high glu-
ten content in alaska" wheat, we
would still not be justified in con-
cludlng that the wheat would make
good quality of flour. The proof of
the wheat is in the bread it will make.
Upon our request the company has
promised to have a milling test made
soon. Until this test is made, how
ever we must assume that the wheat
will make no better flour under the
name Of alaska" than It did when
known as Wheat of Miracle"
In spite of all the beautiful stories
which have been written concerning
the origin of this wheat, regardless of
the many wonderful things which
have been imagined about its quality,
and taking into consideration the i'm
preston as to yield, which has 50
skillfully been thrown broadcast
throughout the American continent
by this seed company, who advertise
their wheat for sale at $40 per bushel,
we have yet to find any points OF
merit in it which would warrant the
public paying more for Alaska"
wheat than the prevailing market
price of our common varieties.
