that each contributor be allowed to

DURUM WHEAT ADVANCES.
Prices of the Cereal Higher Thar
Ever Before Recorded.

Notwithstanding an unusually large
production of durum wheat this year, the
Department of Agriculture states that
the prices paid are not only the high
est ever given for it in this country, but
even have advanced beyond the quota
tions for standard wheat.
Durum wheat has been the most re-
markable of all the introduced cereals
in this country. 1t was brought from the
dry region Of southern Russia in 1895
as an experimental crop for dry-land
farming 1t is a hard wheat. largely used
in macaroni making. It took hold in this
country Immediately. being very drought
resistant. and extended the what belt
100 miles farther into the semi-arid re-
gion than fore.
At first there was prejudice against
this finty wheat on the American ex-
changes. and the price ran as much as
10 cents a bushel under the standard
price for wheat. The culture has grown,
however, and the prejudice has been al
layed, until this year the price In Chica-
go has been from five-eighths to three
quarters of a cent higher than that paid
for No. 1 northern, which usually is the
highest-priced wheat on the market The
crop this year is estimated at more than
100000 bushels. Part of the high
price, 1t is explained, is due to the fact
that Russia and the Balkans are not able
TO supply their usual quota of this wheat
to the European trade this year.
