 Alfalfa Seed was the subject dis cussed by the Farm Advisor at the last meeting of the Chandler Farm CTS Union. during the discussion it was shown that an alfalfa blossom is so constructed that it must be broken open before it can be fer tiliZed. Bees do this naturally. but in the absense of an abundance of bees. il might be well to assist them by mechanical means. Milton Fow- Ter has gone over one of his fields with a float The operation did good in setting seed but it also broke the alfalfa down, thus causing some dam age. IL was suggested at the meet ing that barbed wire dragged sev- cral times across a field in full bloom might have the desired effect on the blossoms without doing any damage Mila maize. Screw worms. and lice on turkeys were also dis cussed by those present.

som?"
Il fear not, Lucy. I presume that
both my political rivals and myself
have personally visited every voter
in the county. Counting noses, the
contest will be very close. The dubi-
GUS element includes some hard-head-
ed old farmers, who refuse to pledge
themselves one way or the other. "
Pretty, ambitious Lucy Farwell
sighed. Outside of being a matter of
pride, the election OF her handsome,
popular husband as district clerk
meant $1,000 added yearly to his earn
ings as an attorney.
This was the crucial day for the
candidates, and Ransom Farwell arose
from the breakfast table brisk and
ready for the burdens and turmoil
of the hour. A sudden CLEAN Of anxi-
ETY. came into the eyes of Lucy as she
kissed her husband good-by. She
gazed earnestly, almost entreatingly,
into his eyes.

"Oh, the fortune of battle!" replied
Ransom, with affected lightness.

Domestic Disturbance.

The trouble began with a tea fight,
The milk was sour, the cake cut up,
and the sugar fell out with the tongs
The spoons clashed and the table
groaned. The fringes on the doilies
snarled, and the crackers snapped.
The sofa and easy chairs we're soon
up in arms, and even the clocks did
not agree, but were at skies and sew
ems. Small wonder that the doors
were unhinged!
Things we're no better In the kitch-
en-. The pitchers were all set by the
ears and stuck out their lips, while the
teapot and kettle poked their noses
into everything. The range was red
hot, which made the saucepan look
black and finally boil over, The bells
started jangling, all the pickles and
preserves in the cupboard were Jared,
and there we're any number of scraps
in the refrigerator and meat safe.

house reached the Of disorder

When l came to think 1t all over, l

II you lose, you have the conscious

THE best in the world!' declared
Ransom heartily, and went out to the
barn to hitch up the horse and buggy
for his last day Of electioneering.
Just as Ransom was leading the horse
out OF his stall there was a rustling
movement overhead. Then some hay
dust sifted down upon him through
the cracks in the flooring,
This was suspicious, for the old loft
had not been used for over a year.
Hay was bought by the bale and horse
feed by the bushel Ransom went
%hurriedly up the stairs, strained his
eyes to see clearly in the dim light,
and made out the Sinking figure Of
a man.
Hey! what are you doing there,
and who are your" he challenged
sharply. Then he peered closer. His
face hardened. He clenched his fists,
his eyes all but glazing. He could
scarcely keep from springing upon
the intruder.
"You-you, Luke Barrett" he
choked out.
Yes, what's left of mel" came the
desperate response. you feel like
killing me, l suppose? Do 1t. I'll be
glad"
Ransom with a mighty effort con-
trolled himself. A more wretched
looking object than the interloper he
had never seen. He was ragged and
gaunt. Drink had brought him to
this-drink, to which he, Ransom Far
we'll, had onoe been a devotee. He
thought Of his redemption, his sweet
loving wife, his bright prospects, and
relented. OF course Luke had long
since squandered the stolen money.
His condition showed bitter poverty.

ply, and led the way to the house.

The Strange Story of White
Flour.

Nearly a hundred years ago an
epicurean faddist of London
Hugh Paddington decided to
have a novel dinner. It's domi-
nant characteristic was to be the
color scheme. White was fash
ionable then. Paddington de-
termined to have all the foods at
the dinner of a color quite differ
ent from their natural hue, with
a leaning toward white. To
match the whiteness of the table
cloth he would have the bread
white. He called a Hungarian
miller into conference and order
ed flour ground especially for the
occasion.
Such a thing never had been
heard of before - perfectly
white flour. Produced from the
ground grain of the wheat flour
naturally took on the comming-
led colors of the grain and there
fore was dark. But Paddington
wanted it white-snow white.
1t was a hard task for the mil
Ter, but after many efforts he
succeeded in producing the de-
sired results by selecting only
the white, lifeless, starchy por-
tions of the grain and discarding
all others. This being accomp-
lished, the epicure was delight
ed. The rest of the color scheme
was easy. AS he had expected,
his dinner proved the novelty of
the day, and the bread was a ire
mendous hit.
That was the first white bread
ever eaten in the history of the
world. AS the wheat grain was
dark, so bread had been dark
from the days of Abraham. To
produce white bread would have
been considered impossible UNI
less a white grain could be
grown. But the Hungarian mil
ler's ingenuity succeeded in
bringing forth a white flour from
a yellow grain. By making the
flour from the starch cells ex-
tracted from the endosperm of
the wheat he obtained a bread
stuff that was of the color and
nearly the consistency of pow
cred chalk.
The white bread fad, as it was
then called, spread like wildfre.
All the smart set of London took
it up and soon the bread made its
appearance on the tables Of the
ultra fashionable all over Eng.
land. No one liked it so well as
the old fashioned blood and bone
producing bread. But people of.
ten sacrifice very much of taste
and health for fashions sake
That was the way it was with
white bread. 1t didn't taste sc
good and it wasn't so satisfying
as the old time bread. But il
looked pretty, the white slices OF
the white tablecloth, and nj
other kind of bread was permit
ted at dinner in stylish London
Flour mills had to be overhauleC
and reconstructed. New ma
chinery had to be installed will
equipment especially adapted TO.
making flour from the starcl
cells of the wheat grain.
Now the main element of nu
triton in wheat is gluten, an,
gluten is dark. The least nutri
tive part of wheat is starch, an,
starch is white. 1t follows
therefore, that the darker tn
flour, within reasonable limits o
course, the more gluten it con
tains and the more nutritious j
is; and the whittier the -four tn
less gluten it contains and tn
less nutritious it is. The whit
flour contains a super-abundanc
of starch. When you buy whit
