Castlereagh became marchioness of
Londonderry. Society flocked to her
colors. only to find that commissions
could not be bought and then, curl
ously enough, they set out to work for
them. There is many prominent So
ciety woman serving in the ranks with
servants of her own establishment.
The marchioness received the off,
scial attention Of Lord Kitchener, when
he recommended her as the colonel in
chief for the very good and SUFFICIENT
reason that he desired the command
to 20 to leader willing to accept the
guidance of the government. Mrs.
Pankhurst is said to have been more
or less disappointed at this turn, but
she lost no time In grieving- instead,
she loyalty supported the legion Of Am
azons.
The age limit for the organization
was fixed at eighteen to forty. The
big drill hall Of Knightsbrfdge was
loaned and drilling In the military arts
has continued ever since. .
It might be mentioned that all the

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
FOR WHEAT GROWERS

throughout the country will try anG
guard against this, by not raising
wheat on land that produced either
barley or rye this year. as the volunteer
grain will affect the grading for mex
crop. This class of land therefore
ought to be sown to oats or something
Of that kind that the volunteer grain
would not seriously affect in value.
The matter of cookie is a serious one
and every farmer should be sure tc
SOW seed that does not contain cookie
Kingheads are bad proposition as
we'll, and this probably can be guarded
against to a certain extent also. II
looks to us as though the present
system of grades argue altogether fol
better farming and pure seed and q
System of rotation that will guard
against the affecting the quality Of the
wheat by volunteer grain. Where
there gre wild peas it is a very serious
matter, and wild peas should be fought
very vigorously, and perhaps the only
way to get rid of wild peas is to raise
potatoes and corn.
~ d . . i
We are very seriously interested il
this matter and therefore are bringing
it to your attention at this time, and
we would appreciate very much your
efforts to get your local paper inter:
ested in this subject so that we can get
to a basis Of pure wheat that can be
bought at a more satisfactory grade
The reason that we are so widely
interested in this matter, is that we are
forced to buy grain in the country on
what it is graded at the terminal point
and it will make it much easier for us
to satisfy our customers if we can give
them the best grade than to be forced
to grade the grain down on account OF
a mixture of rye, barley, wild peas
cookie, kingheads or anything else that
will reduce the grade We would like
to hear from you on this subject and
would like to know what you are doing
and what efforts your are making tc
bring it to the attention of trade.

The new federal system of grading
wheat makes it necessary to prevent
rye, barley and all kinds of weed seeds
from being mixed with the wheat.
Good, plump, heavy wheat, loses in
grade and price, if mixed with foreign
stuff.
The following very important in
formation was recently sent to his
shippers by r. G. Riebe, secretary of
the Kellogg Commission Co, Mime
apolis This information will help
shippers as well as farmers to aid their
own interests
Dear Sir -
Under the present system of grading,
it is easily seen that some radical step
will have to be taken by the farmers
in the country in planning the seeding
OF wheat for another year. 1t does not
seem to be advisable at this time for
them to SOW wheat on land that had
either barley or rye on it THIS year, be-
cause the volunteer ryesdnd barley next
year would become mixed with the
wheat and in that way would affect
the grade according to the present rules
of grading.
Therefore, the barley and rye land
would necessarily have to be seeded
with some kind of seed to take care of
the volunteer grain that would come
up from these fields of rye and barley
next spring.
We think that this is of utmost i'm
portance to- call to the attention of our
customers, and in fact we believe the
local newspapers throughout the
country ought to take this matter up
in vigorous ways and discuss it through
their paper SO that the farmers would
understand the proposition. There is
great deal Of trouble this year of this
sort, and we are fraid that it will re-
main so, and while we have no means
Of fixing the grades, but we are serious
ly interested in buying the grain in the
country. We necessarily are forced to
buy it in the country on the basis of
the terminal grades, and of course if
they grade wheat down on account of a
mixture of rye and barley, we are
forced to do likewise in the country,
and we therefore, bring this matter up
at this time so that our customers

These discounts do not apply to
wheat grading number 4 or better, as
those discounts are fixed by the gov
ernment. 1t is the discounts to the
right Of the heavy line that are fixed
by government agency here.
They are also subject to change
without notice, new schedule will be
sent as we are advised Of changes by
the Food Corporation.
