Serious Fault

times whole fields would break down
after maturity but before it was dry
enough to combine, making it difficult
to harvest and also causing loss of
bushelage. However, its early maturity,
about 10 days earlier than what was
called standard varieties" made it
popular with the southern farmers who
sometimes planted maize after the
wheat was harvested, thus double crop
ping the land.
DR.. I. M. Atkins of the Denton. Tex,
Experiment Station saw this weakness
and knowing the sturdiness of Ten
marq's straw inherited from its grand
pappy, the Hindu from the HimaIayas
in India, he married this Early Black
hull to Tenmarq and the new baby
was named Wichita. The straw of this
wheat was much sturdier and the plants
matured almost as early as its weak
kneed parent On the other side of the
family it picked up some of Tenmarq'S
superior milling quality and did not
seem to inherit Tenmarq's fear of
thunder.
Wichita was bred and developed for
the southern latitude of Denton, Tex,
with some tolerance of perhaps 200
miles toward the north The altitude
at Denton is only 600 feet which makes
it still more of southern plant. The
Wichita variety became popular in a
short time, spread over western Okla
homa, northwest into southwestern
Kansas where it was growing 5000 feet
above its origin. 1t produced well and
the mills found it of good milling quail
ity.
Kidnapped
Now here comes the buggy ride in
the dark sack. Here was a wheat plant,
an educated mongrel which science
calls hybrid 1t had in its genealogy
spring wheat from the far north used
to taking advantage of every scarce
degree of temperature. 1t had the rather
weak winter hardness of its Blackhull
parent to take it through the winter,
and it had from its last parent, Early
Blackhull, and from its great grand
father, the Hindu, an extreme earliness
not found in any other of the varieties
grown many generations in colder eli
mates.
Then almost in the twinkling of an
eye this southern plant was kidnapped
by couple of farmer pirates and over
night hauled, when altitude is con-
sidered, 1000 miles north from its orr
gin.
The country east of the Rocky Noun
tains is plagued with hail. Insurance
rates are high and losses are frequent
and heavy. The altitude ranges from
$500 feet. to $500 and some wheat i;
grown at attitudes of 5000 feet. Some
lucky Colorado farmer had brought uI
some of this wheat to northeastern
Colorado 300 miles north of its north
erly limit and $500 feet higher than it.

ANOTHER CASE or MISREPRESENTATION

ANOTHER CASE OF MISREPRESENTATION
rs A saying around these parts, not necessarily
true, that nothing good stays very long. 1t is unfortunate
that such a saying would come to mind when the name of
Harry E. Taylor is mentioned. It is unfortunate, indeed, but
try as hard as we can, it is difficult to escape that feeling,
and the saying springs to mind.
THIS IS WITH specific reference to statements made
by M Taylor before a Congressional committee relative to
matters Of the Virgin Islands. In fact, it came at a time when
they could do the greatest damage in that the new Organic
Act is being considered.
HARRY E. TAYLOR worked in these Islands over 20
years. He enjoyed the good will, hospitality, devotion, and
absolute safety and tranquility of this place. First, he was
Commissioner of Industry over the Pearson administration.
AS such it was his task to explore ways of developing the ma
tural resources of the Islands and to suggest ways and plans
which would lead to the ultimate self sufficiency of these
Islands,
ATE Mr.. TAYLOR moved to St. Croix as Admins
traitor, and remained in that position until his retirement. As
titular head Of the Island he was in a pivotal position to
make the most serious and farreaching contribution to the
political, social, and economic welfare of these Islands, and
particularly St. Croix. It was a position of challenge, and one
which indeed would have challenged a man of imagination
and deep conviction.
UGH the 2O-odd years that he served
he came in for frequent and bitter criticism. 1t was
felt that he never really considered that ST. Gfoix was a place
which should be developed for natives; that regardless OF
any expressions Of sincerity and devotion to the cause of
developing St. Croix, these expressions did not ring true
WHATEVER misgivings and doubts that might have in
fluenced local thinking with respect to MI. Taylor are now
fully justified. He was a man who worked for a salary, stayed
on the Job until retirement, during all that time working
.ceaselessly to secure his economic future Through the ad-

Lad Tells OF
Shooting Pal
By Accident

WESTVILLE, n. S. R-Stewart
Wright, IS, told a coroner's jury
yesterday how he shot his 14-year-
old pal to death March 2 while
they listened to Shooting radio
program and read comic books
about the Two-Gun Kid.
Stewart said his chum, Roland
Muir, suggested they play with two
rifles kept behind the kitchen door.
Roland put six shells in one rifle.
Stewart said he thought Roland
elected all of them from the mag
aZine.
"Just in fun I said to Rollie
Hands up" Stewart went on.
Stewart pointed the rifle at Ro-
land and squeezed the trigger. The
gun fired, sending a bullet through
Roland's forehead.
The jury returned a verdict of
accidental death and recommend
ed that comic books "of the type
found at the scene" be banned.
