CLIMATIC AND SOIL CONDITIONS
FOR WHEAT.

Wheat demands a soil suft1c1entiy
rich in plant food for proper growth
and maturity but not so rich IN nitro
gen as to produce an excess OF straw
at the expense Of the kernels. The
hard spring wheat having the highest
bread making gluten content, can be
grown to perfection in the United
States only in limited territory In
the Northwest.
The cool growing season with abuli-
dance of sunshine during the stages
of filing and maturity and the hor
and dry harvest time so typical OF our
prairies contribute strongly to the
best development of the hard wheaI
varieties as well as to their harvesting
and the preservation Of the CROP
While the weather does not cause
rust and other disease conditions. in
some years, when the weather Is wet
and warm at the time the red spores
attack the wheat, it causes these
spores to multiply very rapidly. In
fact, many farmers think that wheat
rust is caused by the weather. Often
the maturing or ripening Of the crop
q few days earlier than usual, will es-
cane this rust menace almost COM
pletely.
The weather has not changed In the
Northwest sufficient to account Tor any
deterioration in wheat. II the limit
ing factors Of disease could be re
moved, there Is no place in the spring
wheat territory where good wheat has
ever been grown, which cannot AGAR

the springs are too wet or too dry tina
the growing season is too wet. alternat

times we have long dry spells, but Of
the other hand we have the weathe

keep our wheat from turning t

which the celebrated spring wheat
fiour has gained its great fame.

 ''To whatever extent Improvements can be made in this respect the depart ment is just as desirous as the public that they be made, and If so, then as quickly as possible.

 The Newberry case was at the bot tom of all the trouble. The senate had been discussing senate rule, of which McKellar is the author, the pur- pose of which was the regulation of campaign expenditures of candidates for the senate.
 Senator King of Utah. one of the Democratic leaders, had suggested that it might be well for the senate to let the people of the state control their own affairs. To this Senator McKellar retorted that he wondered If the senators trust the people of Michigan to be honest and fair in the

A N APPROPRIATION of S500,000 "A will enable Attorney General Daugherty to conduct 2 vigorous cam paign of prosecution of war contract frauds. The money is to be used by Mir. Daugherty in the employment of lawyers and expert accountants to bring to justice contractors who plundered the government.

 In addition, the active ships will carry 46 observation and spotting planes, 27 small spoilers, 36 torpedo or bombing planes, IS scouts and four kite balloons for observation purposes.
