The wheat crop Is fine but we
venture the assertion that not one

county have any wheat to harvest.
Let us notice a few reasons why
our farmers should raise wheat:
First,it Insures his bread instead OF
having to buy it from the northern
wheat belt, paying the middle man
a profit here. Second, is rests and
builds up the land. Third, 1t
tbriyes through dry seasons when
the corn crop is practically failure.
Fourth, the straw, especially in dry
seasons, makes a splendid rough
ness, almost as good as hay.
Surely our farmers should get busy
this fall and SOW more wheat there
by encouraging the mill and thresh.

to handle the product. We think
this subject needs no argument but
should be agiLated. What do you

Welsh and Ancient Britons.

All the histories agree that under
the wars of practical extinction car
ried on By the invading hordes OF
northern Europe in Britain, only those
Of the ancient inhabitants escaped
destruction who fed to or already
lived in the mountain Businesses OF
Wales. 1t does not appear to have
suggested itself to anyone to doubt
that modern Welsh is essentially the
language of the ancient Britons, or
that the Welsh are the descendants
of those interesting people, who occu-
pied the British Isles when they were
termed the lend of the world (ultima
thule)" by the old Roman writer's,
and were successfully invaded by
julius Caesar, 3. C. SIS. The Welsh
were always recognized as good fight
ing men, as witness Fluellen in
Shakespeare. Two famous regiments
in the British army continue the ira
ditions, "The Royal Welsh Fusiliers, "
who have been in every warlike affair
of consequence in which Britain has
been concerned since 1890, and "The
Welsh Regiment" comprising the old
Forty-frst, the Sixty-ninth and the
Royal Glamorgan militia.

Bank-Notes Made Of Silk.

Bank-notes made of silk of par
ticular shade that will battle the bank
note forger are now possible. AS is
known, most OF the expert bank-note
forgers use photography to obtain
their best results; but recent inren-
ton makes it possible to manufacture
silk of particular shade that cannot
possibly be photographed.
Discovered by woman, this inTen-
ton is new process for waterproof
ing fabrics without rubber and dyeing
them in the same operation. Linen,
cotton, or other materials to be treat
ed by this process are placed white
into one end of the machine and
brought out at the other end a few
