MARQUIS WHEAT

Is the variety which has the best
milling qualities and makes more
and better flour, therefore brings
the highest price to the farmers.
The elevators and mills will pay you
more because the wheat is worth
more. AS a rule, unless we have
just such a year as last year, MAR
OUTS brings better results because:
1t natures from five to ten days
earlier than other wheat, avoiding
so much danger from winds and
drouth. We may never have IN
other year like last year.
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1917-01-25

Being earlier, Marquis escapes rust,
which attacks later varieties.
1t does not shell out and waste so
badly as Blue Stem, Red Fife, or
Velvet Chaff, during harvest. This
is true of it even when over-ripe.
The straw is shorter and sitter.
hence in a dry year it suffers less
from drouth and in a wet year it
suffers less from lodging.
1t contains lots of gluten and the
gluten is much superior to that Of
any other wheat, therefore is a bet
ter milling wheat.

CALLS Her COLD FLOODED
MURDERER OF CHILDREN
Prosecutor Pleads For Conviction Of
Mrs. Mooney As Most Dangerous
OF Criminals.
(By Associated Press.)

San Francisco, July 19.-Charac-
terizing Mrs. Rena Mooney, on trial
for murder in connection with the
preparedness parade bomb explosion
here last July as cold FLOODED
slaughterer Of women and children"
and IAN anarchistic conspirator,"
District Attorney Charles NJ. Fickert,
asked for her conviction and the in
Fiction of the death penalty in his
closing address TO the jury yesterday
Either you will destroy anarchy or
the anarchists will destroy the state"
he declared.
That the efforts of the defendant
to prove an alibi for herself were
lies conceived by one old and school
ed in crime was the declaration of
Fickert. This is the most important
case that has ever been tried before
an American court, not excepting the
trial of those who assassinated the
immortal Lincoln" continued Fickert.
This defendant and her fellow an
archists murdered ten men and wo-
men and manned fifty people because
they were bent on destroying the
very government which Lincoln pre-
served and defended and for which he
gave his life"
Fickert said Mrs. MONEYS hand
bag contained mo innocent powder
puff, but instead contained bullets"
Books on dynamite were found in
her apartment, he declared.
alexander Berkman was at the
head of this anarchistic conspiracy"
said Ffckert. He called Berkman the
arch-anarchist of the United States.
Fickert concluded his argument
this morning and Maxwell McNutt
will open for the defense.
1t was expected the case will reach
the Jury Saturday.

of the original plan for one admini-
strator.
The actual effect of the Pomerene
amendment written into the bill was
disputed by Senators. Its advocates
declared 1t was entirely satisfactory
to the administration and council
members. Equal satisfaction was ex-
pressed by those advocating more
drastic action, including Senator
Reed, one Of the most persistent
critics of the council.
During the discussion Senator
Pomerene declared no serious criti-
cism could be lodged against the
councils advisory commission and
that its usefulness should not be
crippled by passage of the committee
amendments which its opponents pre-
dicted might prevent the prominent
men who have been serving as COM
missioners without pay from con-
tinuing in their positions. Senator
Reed and others insisted that all that
was sought was to prevent contracts
for their own supplies from being
controlled by the commissioners.
Among many amendments submit
ted but not acted on during the day
was one fixing the minimum price for
wheat at 81 O. bushel by Senator KEEL
logg. Senator McCumber proposed
one under which the amount of COM
pensation for any farm product RED
uisitioned by the government be
computed at the same rate as that
paid for other products such as steel,
iron and copper, plus reasonable
rate of interest.
Senator Weeks offered as an
amendment to the bill his plan for
joint congressional committee on the
conduct of the war, already embodied
in a separate bill.

DENIES THAT HOOVER
STIPULATED IN FOOD
All Purchases Made in Belgian Re.
lief Work Were For Cash, Says
HemphilI.
(By Associated Press.l

New York July 19.-Alexander J.
Hemphill, chairman of the advisory
committee appointed BY President
Wilson to cooperate with the COM
mission for relief in Belgium, denied
the charge made by Senator Reed
of Missouri that Herbert c. Hoover
had gambled in foor or clothing as
chairman of the commission.
The charge that Mr.. Hoover
rugged" the market in his purchase
of supplies for Belgium is absolutely
untrue" said Mr.. Hemphill. "All
purchases made in the Belgian relief
work were for cash. There were no
transactions in futures, no gambling
or specializing in commodities.
The method pursued was simple.
Officers in charge of the work for
the allies gave Mr.. Hoover at in
tervals the amount of food he would
be allowed to take into Belgium. That
program was sent to this country
and supplies were bought as far as
funds and available shipping would
permit. Under an arrangement with
France and England, funds were
provided on a monthly basis and the
committee never had a large sum of
money available at one time. In
stead it's commitments were US
ually somewhat in excess Of its cash
resources"
