N Of wheat are supposed to
make barrel Of -four. This
may have been true In the old days
when wheat was merely wheat. Now
competition Is so keen and -four in
spection so rigid, that flour Is sold
on its merits.
In general way the price depends
largely upon the rubbery quality Of
the bread gluten contained In the
wheat. The amount Of gluten does
not always signify because the glu-
ten in some wheats is not "expan-
sive.' In other words, 1t is not
thirsty, which means that It win not
absorb water and the cells will
break In rising.
Some wheats are strong In starch
and are good for crackers: other
wheats are suitable for macaronI
and breakfast foods: other wheats
