What 10 Graham Flourf

The Bureau of Chemistry Of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture has been conducting an investi-
cation Of graham -four, concerning
which product there is great confusion
in the milling trade, with the idea of
establishing certain standards with
which all graham flours shall comply.
Statements made by many millers
show that very large per centage Of
the so-called graham fours on the
market are mixed products, or imita-
lions made from feed bran, together
with low-grade flour, eight or ten per
cent cracker -four, and in many in
stances contain the sweepings from
the mill.
True graham flour, according to Bull
letin 1874, just issued by the Bureau,
Is 'unbolted wheat meal made from
sound, clean, fully-matured, air-dried
wheat" This may also be called
whole wheat four" or "entire wheat
-four" Mixtures, or fours from which
part Of the bran has been removed.
should be labeled imitation graham
flours.
Bread made from whole wheat meal
was much esteemed among the an
clients for its medicinal properties. It
was reintroduced into general use
early in the nineteenth century by
Sylvester Graham.

SELECTING GOOD SEED CORN
should Be Chosen In the Field a.

Seed corn should be selected in the
field as the corn is being husked from
the shock Expert growers make the
selection by going through the best
part Of the field. picking out the best
medium-sized, well-tipped-out. small
cobbed, early-maturing ears, where
two grow on q stalk. and tying red
string around them near the tip.
These ears will be found in the husk-
Ing and should be kept separate. BY
this method any careful farmer can
have in a few years q productive va
riety Of corn Of standard excellence.
DO not select simply big ears. II the
variety of corn is good. the medium
sized ears will give the best results.
Spread the seed corn out on the top
floor of barn or granary, where the
corn will keep dry and sound and be
free from rats and mice.
The corn should not be shelled un'
til near the season for planting.
Seedmen and careful truckers grow
each variety of sweet corn in separate
plots Of ground SO the pollen will not
mix. Good land is chosen and care
