Nelr Wheat Is Produced.

London-A new wheat, with five
parents and inheriting the virtues of
each of them, is the latest triumph of
Professor Rowland Biffen, of Cam
bridge university. 1t is peculiarly
hardy development, growing from
three to three and a half feet in
height, stout of straw and also good
for milling, and is especially adapted
for the exposed Fen country. This
new wheat will be put on the market
next year. There are several other
wheats and barleys to Professor Bif-
fen's credit at the Cambridge farm.

the aplomb and verve of a funeral

How He Knows.

A travelling sales agent visiting a
large factory made a bet with the
manager that he would pick out all
the married men among the employees.
Accordingly he stationed himself at
the door as they came back from din

believed to be married, and in almost
every case he was right.
'How do you do it?" asked the man
ager IN amazement.
"Oh, it's quite simple" said the

MEAT RAISING EVIDENTLY
NOT PROFITABLE TO FARMERS

The large increase. in the value OF
meat animals on farms is probably
accounted for by the increased cost
Of production and the increased con-
sumption or demand arising from the
fact that production has not : kept
pace with the increase in population,
and in the case of cattle and sheep
has actually declined. It is well
known that producers Of farm pro-
ducts are the last to receive any bene-
fit from highter pricse paid by con.
sumers, yet they ARE among the first
to incras production If thr is a pros.
pect of realizing better Returns. The
very fact that there is a present short
age of nearly 100000 meat animals
in the United States since the cen
sus of 1910 indicates clearly that the
businesses is not profitable to produc-
ers; otherwise every farmer and stock
raiser in the country would have in
creased his herds Of meat animals. 1t
should also be borne in mind that the
estimated average value of meat ami
mails is their value On the farm, and
not the wholesale or retail value.
The farm value, or average price re-
ceived on farms, is much less than the
wholesale prices and considerably less
than the retail prices to consumers.
Just wha the difference is between
the price at the farm and the cost
to the ultimate consumer is not def
nitely known, as the slaughtering re-
cords r not definitely determinable
