Especial Events of the past week,

Citizen of the West
Uses the Most Wheat

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2-Citizsns Of the
United States consume an average Of al
most one and one-fifth barrels Of flour
q year. experts Of the government an
nounce in connection with a report on the
wheat supply and distribution OF the
country just made public. They figure this
on a basis Of four and one-half bushels
Of wheat to a barrel of flour. The average
Of all returns Indicated per capita con-
sumption OF about ka4 bushels OF wheat.
The people Of the far west were the
greatest consumers of wheat. their aver
age being six bushels o person Next
come the people Of the northern central
states west Of the mississippi where
five and nine-tenths bushels are CON
sumed. Then the northern central states
east Of the Mississippi follow with five
and six-tenths bushels and the south CEN
trail states with four and seven-tenths
bushels and the south Atlantic states
with four and two-tenths,
The smaller consumption in the south
IL accounted for by the fact that corn
meal is an important substitute for
wheat flour. In some Of the heavy sur
plus potato producing sections Of the
northern states. such as Maine. Michigan
and Wisconsin. potatoes are another sub
stltute.
