Australians Fond of Meat.

Australian apDetites are quite ro-
bust, judging by recent statistics.
which show that the average Australian
eats every year 264 pounds of meat.
which works out nj IN average of two
sheep and one-fifth of n bullock for ev-
cry man, woman and baby in austral-
asia He eats more than twice az
much as the average Englishman, three
times as much as the average French
man. and four times as much as the
averag &c German or Swiss. In addition
he consumes about three and three
quarter hundredweights of wheat, two
and a half hundredweights of pota-
toes, and almost one hundredweight
of sugar. If he is a Tasmanian he eats
a quarter of ton of potatoes in a
year.

the wheat produced in the territor,
mentioned is hard red spring. Thi
kind of wheat is divided into tire,
subclaSses or divisions, according t,
the percentage of dark, hard and vitre
Gus (flinty) kernels. For bread-mak
ing purposes it is generally believed
that flour from wheat containing {
large percentage of the dark, hare
and f1inty kernels is superior because
OF its stronger, more elastic, and more
abundant gluten. This is the charac
ter that has given the spring wheats
of the Northwest and the hard winter
wheats of certain sections of the
Southwest their enviable reputation il
the worlds market, and is responsible
for the almost universal premium
millers are willing TO pay for these
wheats in normal times.
The subclasses for hard red spring
wheat are: Dark northern spring
containing 20 per cent or more dark
hard and fiinty kernels, and not more
than 10 per cent or less of humpback
northern spring, which contains less
than IS per cent and more than %
per cent dark, hard and flinty kernels.
and not more than 10 per cent or less
humpback red spring. which contains
% per cent or less dark, hard and
flinty kernels, or more than 10 per
cent humpback.
How Wheat Was Graded.
OF the 41.711 cars of hard red spring
wheat received and inspected at Du-
luth during the last half of 1913, A..
GAG cars. or 35.1 per cent, were classed
as dark northern spring; 25,S97 cars.
or 62.1 per cent, were classed as north
ern spring; and 1.16S cars, or % per
cent, were classed as red spring
There are six grades numbered from
1 to 5, the sixth being called the
sample grade. OF the hard red sprina
wheat received at Duluth, S44 per cent
was placed in grade No. /, and S.3 per
cent in grade No. 2. making more than
80 per cent graded No. 2 or better
For the same period 1882 cars were
inspected at Minneapolis, 71.9 per cent
or the cars being placed in grade No
L, and l4.3 per cent in grade No. 2.

LEAF SPOT HARMS LEGUMES
Fungus Which Causes Disease Lives
Over Winter on Dead Leaves
Two characteristics.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Common alfalfa leaf-spot and red
clover leaf-spot are similar in appear
ance but are caused by two distinct
fungi, says a specialist of the United
States department of agriculture who
has published the results of studies Of
alfalfa and clover leaf-spots in Bulle-
tin 759.
The fungus which causes alfalfa
leaf-spot lives over winter on dead
leaves which escape decay. There are
two characteristics of leaf-spot caused
by this particular fungus which usual
ly serve to distinguish 1t from spots
caused by other fungi. One is the cir
cular shape and small size of the spots,
and the other Is a small raised disk
ir the center of the fully developed
spot.
The disease is one Of the most Sc
rious and widely known of those which
attack the foliage of alfalfa. 1t causes
greatest loss during wet weather. and
cases have been reported where 1t has
destroyed half of the alfalfa crop.
Little is known of the method by
which fields become infested. Efforts
to exclude the disease from alfalfa
fields in localities remote from other
alfalfa by the surface sterilization OF
the seed have given no success. Evil
IDENTIFY, In these experiments at least.
the department pathologist says the
fungus was not carried on the surface

in such fields still furnishes an inter-

If the chicken must be confined on
account of bad weather. provide good
straw litter in which their grain feed
may be scattered. This will give them
exercise and keep them interested and
healthy. When chickens that have been
accustomed to free range are closely
confined this frequently checks their
development for the time being unless
they are made contented in their new
quarters. Provide green feed for them

The best time to cut Sudan grass for

The new position is a distinct pro-
motion, carrying a far higher salary
than he could hope to secure in the
%pastorate of western churches, and
giving greater opportunity for adj
vancement. The Rev. Mr.. Biggs had
been engaged in similar work before
coming to Moscow, about 18 months
ago., and is we'll fitted for it. He
held the same position with the Spo-
kane University four years and was
also pastor of the Dean Avenue Chris
in Spokane. Mr.. McCash, who was
president of Spokane University
when Mr.. Biggs was professor of
oratory, is now head of Phillips Uni
versity, at Enid, Oklahoma, and he
secured the position in Texas for Mr..
Biggs, by his high recommendation
of the l~atter's work while in Spo-
kane.
1t has been no secret for some time,
that the Rev. Mr.. Biggs planned to
leave Moscow. He has received many
flattering offers of pastorates in
other places, and also some educa-
tional work propositions. The one he
has accepted in Texas appealed to
him more than any of the others.
The departure of Rev. Mr.. Biggs
from Moscow will cause much genu-
inc regret. He has been a constant,
t~ireless and energetic worker in the
church field here and has been doing
special work at the university. Both
he and Mrs. Biggs and their two
have made many close
here who, while regretting
their departure, congratulate them
the better opportunity for larger
work.

Calumet Baking Powder instead of
other brands for various reasons.
The most important being based on
it's leayening strength. You are sure to
obtain good results when using CAL
umet, for it never falls after having
risen.
Calumet goes further than most
other brands, because it only requires
one to one and a half teaspOonfuls
while others require two. You also
save in baking material, as it never
fails to rise.
Calumet keeps perfectly and is mod
crate in price. Hence, you economic
when you buy it, also economic when
you use it.
One trial will satisfy you of the
truth of these statements and dem
onstrate without a doubt by using
Calumet, we practice both thrift and
economy.
