Be HARD FOR
MAN TO GIVE
UP HIS BREAD
Addicted to the Habit for 5000
Years, Says New York
Newspaper.

NEW YORK, May 27.-Probably man
would survive IL the earth never FRO
duced another grain of wheat But,
says the American, he would not find 1t
easy to get along without this useful
grain, for eating OF bread and other
things made from wheat flour is a
habit to which he has been addicted for
nearly 5000 years.
Wheat, It is thought. was first grown
In the valleys Of the Tigris and the Ell
pirates. Gradually 1t spread to the
East and 1t is known that in China 1t
was cultivated extensively as early as
5000 B. C. Wheat formed the chief
food o! the people Of Biblical times.
The term wheat" is derived from "a
old English word, "hivaete," meaning
white.
The wheat of today differs somewhat
from that Of early history. Through
intensive cultivation and cross-fertili-
zatlon It has reached high state Of per-
lection.
Wheat is most widely known OF the
cereal grains. 1t is found whenever
tho white man has penetrated. 1t is
grown in Himalayan slopes, 10000
feet above sea level on the great cen
trail plain of North America; in the
tropical countries Of Africa and India.
We even find that as far north as tho
slxtleth parallel of latitude in Alaska,
Russia, Germany, France and England
thousands Of acres of wheat are har-
vested ovory year.
The fact that wheat can 6e readily
adapted TO various conditions Of soil
and climate makes It the most valuable
OF all cereal grains.
There ore many different varieties of
wheat due TO the difference OF soil and

GEORGIA DRY"
OFFICERS PULL
OFF BIG RAID
Several Tons Of Liquor Are
ConfiSCated and Hundreds
Are Arrested.

The biggest liquor raid ever pulled
of in Georgia took place in Savannah
few days after the new prohibition
law went into effect on May !. and
resulted in search OF 118 houses and
stores, the arrest of more than 100
individuals. the conhscation Of many
hundreds of gallons of liquors, wines
and beers. and docket cases against
upwards Of 100 suspects. The raid
was participated in by every officer on
the police force, and embraced every
section of the city. 1t came as COM
Dlete surprise TO the majority of the
dealers, although few OF them were
tipped OF and made their preparations
accordingly. The raid was conducted
by Chief Of Police M. l.. Meldrim per-
sonally, who has announced that the
department under him will do all in it's
power TO put down the liquor evil as
long as the law remains on the statute
books.
Every jitncy and street automobile
in Savannah was reQulsitioned TO con-
vcy the squads OF officers to their des-
tlnatiOns, and every dray and automo-
BILE truck was employed to convey the
contiscated stuff to the barracks,
where 1t will eventually find its way
into the sewers. II became known fol-
lowing the raid that the chief of police
had received threats that drastic retail
iatory measures would be taken in the
event he allowed the police to make a
raid. 1t is thus evident that con-
spiracy existed to evade the law. and
this attempt was resorted to in an eff
fort 10 forestall anticipated action by
the police. The chief states that 9TH
or similar raids are likely to follow
al any time until Savannah, known for
years as the wettest spot in dry Geor-
gia. is actually converted to the new
order of things
Sharp Division In Sentiment.
The raid was probably the forerun-
ner Of other troublous situations to fol-
low. If more than 100 blind tigers
could be found in Savannah five days
after prohibition went into effect ii is
a safe prediction that the trade in
cOntraband goods cannot be checked
with ease.
Prohibitionists are pointing with
pride TO the fact that the biggest raid
ever pulled in Georgia could take place
in Savannah. known throughout the
nation as the outlaw community in
Georgia, but this is Offset by the as
sertion of the ants that the fact that
such raid was possible in confrma-
ton OF their theory that prohibition
will not prohibit.
The result may he reflected partIcu-
larly in the political situation. The
Savannah ti-prohibitionists scored
victory over the administration by Sc
curing the appointment OF Neyle Col
quit as clegate-at-large TO the Ma
tional Democratic convention at ST.
Louis, which brings to their aid the
influence Of W. j. Harris, who con-
trolled the state convention, in their
fight TO reduce the term Of the mayor
and aldermen OF Savannah as a pre-
llminary 10 an effort 10 defeat them
for reelection at the polls.
II will also be the most important
issue in the gubernatorial situation. II
is suggested that Nat +. Harris. the
