MINI. Produces
RuStleSS Wheat
A Few Pecks Developed at Col
lege of Agriculture Are Val
ued at 100000

Thirty thousand dollars is the
value of a few pecks Of wheat
carefully treasured in the vaults
of the Minnesota College of
Agriculture experiment station.
After five more generations of
breeding and selection the re-
oulting grain may be worth mil
lions Of dollars annually TO wheat
growers Of Minnesota and the
Dakotas.
The result for which the sta
ton experts are striving in their
costly research work is new
strain Of rust-resisting grain.
The blue stem grain, which is
grown widely as the spring
wheat crop in the northwest
forms one side of the family
tree, whose offspring may be
the hardy and prolific one de-
sired. Durum wheat, famous
for it's rust-resisting qualities,
is the other member Of the
union. The problem is to COM
bine in one strain of wheat the
rust-resisting qualities of the
durum and the large yield of the
blue stem.
The Federal government and
the state of Minnesota have con-
tributed together about $4,000
up to this time in the produc-
ion of the new seed. The cross
has been successful. There re-
main certain vital problems
which have to be overcome be-
fore the grain is ready for gen.
eral distribution.
For this reason, Dean A. F.
Woods, Of the Agricultural col
lege, was very reluctant to make
the announcement of the adj
vancement which has taken
place up to this time. 'It must
be generally understood that it
will be another five years or
more before the experiment sta
ton will be ready to give out
the seed for agricultural pur-
poses," Dean Woods said. He

Under the Federal regulations
as they now stand, the season

closed until next autumn

erroneous impression on Wnlcn
the newspaper statements are
based, has grown out of the

A LITTLE EXAMPLE

Forest City, Ia, is a good ex-
ample of what can be done in a
town when factions cease fight
ing each other, and go to fight
ing for each other. For a num-
Der of years Forest City went
back. 1t was cursed with fac
tional fights of more than usual
bitterness. The town was at a
standstill-and worse. The popu-
lation fell away about six hun
dred. Property greatly decreased
in value. Finally the citizens
and business, men saw a great
light. They perceived the depths
of their folly. They were cut
ting each others throat-and it
was not getting them a single
thing. They were not arriving
anywhere. So, after years OF
bitter quarreling, they got to-
gether, buried the Ratchet and
agreed to work for the common
interest of the town. The re-
suit has been marvellous. New
business blocks and new resi-
dences have gone up by the
score. Many blocks of paving
have been put down, and the
population Of the town is in
creasing rapidly. There is q
little lesson for every town tc
learn from Forest City's expert
ence.-Winnebago Enterprise.

tinuing the enforcement of the

culture is bound to report to the
Department of Justice violations
of the regulations if the Supreme
Court should declare the law

why YOU ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is the alarm system

In perfect health we hardly realize that

health is ebbing, when strength is declin-

alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful

of letters from farmers wanting
the improved seed for planting
next spring. Several strains of
the seed up to this time have
been produced which have the
rust-resisting properties and are
equally or more prolific than the
blue stem. The baking qualities
Of the product, however, are not
yet up to the standard which
the agricultural experts want to
embody in the new grain.
The ross-breeding, according
ly, will be carried on for a SER
les of years. None of the in
ferior baking wheat will be al
lowed to get out in the state.
The experiment during the
past ten years has been under
the direction Of C. M. Freeman,
assistant dean of the agricul-
tural college. The staff Of the
grain breeding department has
been assisting in the expert
ments.
Should the new seed prove
successful, it undoubtedly will
replace the variety of grain now
grown in the northwest. By
eliminating the annual loss from
rust, an annual saving estimated
conservatively at S10,0OO,00C
will be realized.

EARLY MERICA BIBLES

The first bible printed in America
was IN an Indian language, translated
by John Elliott, pioneer missionary to
the Indians, and published at Cam
bridge Mass, the New Testament iII
1861, the entire bible in 1868. In
lbSS one William Bradford proposed
to- print an English bible by sub.
scripuon, the price Of the book TO thu
Subscribers being 20 shillings or 4
pound sterling. In 1874 during tho
Revolutionary war, there were SO few
bibles in the little group Of states thai
congress voted to print thirty thou
sand copies Even this was found inn
practicable. Type and paper were
wanting and by way Of compromise
twenty thousand bibles were then or
dcrcd to be imported from Europe by

ing given that its use was SO uni
vcrsal and its importance SO great"

CRYPTIC MESSAGE
TELLS OF FAMINE
Woman Missionary In Turkey Uses
Verses of Bible 10 Convey
Message.

NEW YORK, July 21.-A cryptic
message by which an American mis-
sionary nurse in Turkey got infor-
nation Of famine and pestilence past
the Turkish censor is described in a
bulletin issued today by the Ameri-
can board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions. The message, writ
ten on a postcard follows:

the first part OF the twentieth verse
Of the fifth chapter of Job and still
sooner, even now. Of the last Of Psalm
91:3. What a blessing to have God
who is true and able. Lots of love

mixture in demand here"
The first part OF the twentieth
verse of the fifth chapter of Job
reads:
"In famine he shall redeem thee
from faith"
The last part of the third verse Of
the ninety-frst Psalm follows:
For he shall deliver thee from
the snare of the fowler" And it is
added from the noisome pestilence."
The mixture referred to is medi-
cine used in cholera cases. The
board of commissioners interprets the
reference to the mixture to mean that
cholera is raging in that part of
Turkey.

Associated Press Man Sees German

LONDON, July 21.-The Germ an
submarine mine layer OF the U-35
class that is one of the latest prizes
of the British navy was visited by
an Associated Press representative to-
day prior to its being placed on public
exhibition in the Thames.
The prize, flying the German naval
ensign surmounted by the British en-
sign, lay in naval dock yard on the
east coast. The vessel is designed
purely for mine laying. The entire
forward part is composed of wells,
six in number, each containing two
powerful mines, which can be re-
leased by levers. The ship has no
torpedo tubes or other armament ex-
cept small arms for the crew, and is
only 100 feet IN length.
Thirteen bluejackcts and five off,
GERS comprise the crew of the sub
marine. According TO one of the sea-
men she made prior to her capture
19 trips from her base in Germany
to the Rritsh coast and laid over
two hundred mines in routes tre-
quented by merchant vessels. She was
on her twentieth trip when she was
captured by the British patrol boat.
The sailor said when the submarine
was sighted and chased by patrol
boat the crew tried to get rid OF her
remaining mines, but had not suffi-
cient time Seeing that capture was
