Comparison Made With Old
of Harvesting.
A Spokane man wrote to the Wash
ington State Expermlent station staff,
Pullman, recently, inquiring relative to
the growing and culting of wheat, the
and flour-making content of the berry
Therefore to anecieu oy sou, cjimate and methods
. ui tuning, rroiessor n. w. inaicner,
director of the station, answered the
inquiriee as follows:
I 1. Does the wheat loe any of the
essential elements for good flour by
I standing until ripe enough to cut and
.thresh at one operation,
j " Wheat does not lose any of its con
stituents by standing until it is thor
oughly ripe. It does, however, manu
facture and store up a somewhat larger ! f
proportion or. starcn man n cue when ,
in fhnrlmifrll roa nlftnrv In a altrrVifltf-
softer wheat with a larger proportion i h
gluten. The difference in this respect
is rather small, however."
2. Are the berries as plump when
cut by a combined machine as when
me grain is narvesrea oy a Dinaer or
header, and threshed after standing in
the shock, or having ben stacked?
We a'o informed that the wheat buyers
and millers make a difference between

'I don't know about blm," answered tne shock, for the same reason; that is,
a greater production of starch fills the
berries plumper."
3. Do the berries lost their color
when left growing until ripe enough to
cut with a combined machine?
"The color of the berry is not chang
ed materially until after the grain is
dead ripe, after which it miiy be bleach
ed out to a varying extent, depending
upon the length of time and the cli
matic conditions."
4. Is all the wheat in one sack of an
even grade when harvested with the
combined machine?
; "The wheat in a single sack of grain
harvested by acombined machine is not
necessarily of an even grade. Since the
'machine is run up or down hill, it may
cut and run into the sack wheat growing
! under quite different conditions. This.
however, is equally true of any other
method of harvesting. It is well
known that grain from the top of a clay
point is different from that of a north
hill slope, and both of these are differ
ent from that of a south hill slope, or
upon a flat. I do not think any meth
od of harvesting will secure absolutely
the uniformity you suggest."
5. Is there more wheat lost durins:
the operation of the combined machine
than through harvesting and threshing
by the old method? If so, how much?
"We have no information which
would make it possible for us to state
'definitely whether there is more or less
j wheat lost during the operation of a'
combined machine, than by harvesting
. and threshing by the old method. We
are aware of the objection that has been
I raised in California to the use of a com
, bined machine, but do not think it is a
j 'great' objection, as has been stated.
"There is no question but that the
grain cut witn a comoined machine is
slightly lower in proportion of gluten
which it will show. The yield per acre
is certainly a little later, if the grain is
allowad to become ripe. I am person
ally of the opinion that the most seri
ous objection to the combined machine
is in the distribution over the field of
the threshed out weed seeds."

Here is a simple home-made mixture
as given by an eminent apthority on
Kianey diseases, who makes the state
ment in a New Ycrk daily newspaper,
that it will lelieve almost any case of
Kidney trouble if taken before the stage
of Blight's disease. He states that
Fiich symptoms as lame back, pr.in in
the side, frequent desire to urinate, es
pecially at night; painful and diFColored
urination, are readily overcome. Here
is the recipe; try it: j
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half j
ounce; Compound Karg. n, one ounce:;
Compound Syrup Sarsapariha, three
ounces. Take a teasponful after each
meal and at bedtime.
A well-known phyeician is authority
that these ingredients are all harmless
and easily mixed at home by shaking
veil in a bottle. This mixture has a
pe Miliar healing and soothing effect up
on the entire Kidney and Urinary
structure, and often overcomes the won-t
forms of Rheumatism in just a little
whi'e. This mixture is said to remove
all blood disorders and cure the Rheu- i
niatis-m by forcing the Kidneys to filter
and strain from the blood and system
all uric acid and foul, decomposed
waste matter, which cause the afllic
tions. Try it if you aren't well. Save

Miss Elizabeth Robins has written a
novel to be called "The Convert." It
Is a story of the woman suffrage move
ment, with the scene laid in London.
Miss Robins Is certain to have appre
ciated the higher aspects of this long
fight against masculine and feminine
conservatism. The hysteria in the lob
bies at Westminster last spring was
not confined to the excited suffragists.
It seized most of the critics who scoffed
ai me petticoat warriors, as well as
most of the policemen wuo faced them.
The theme of woman's suffrage, though
conducive to emotional aberration,
could be made stimulating nnd vital in
the highest degree. It served Marcel
Prevost for an Interesting if rhapsodic
study, atjd there Is every hope that
Miss Robins' book, coming from the
better situated sex, will surpass "Fred-erlque."

SKIN DI!
HUMORS IN THE Bi.OOI
When the blood is pure, fresh and healthy, the skin will be soft, smooth
and free from blemishes, but when some acid humor takes root in the circu
lation its presence is manifested by a skin eruption cr disease. These
humors get into the blood, generally because of an inactive or sluggish
condition of the members of the body whose duty it is to collect and carry
off the waste and refuse matter of the sj-stem. This unhealthy matter is left
to sour and ferment and soon the circulation becomes cliarred with the acid
poison. I he blood begins to throw off the humors and acids through the

of Hawaii. Pineapples brought to this country and then canned must be
picked before fully ripe or they won't keep and the flavor is
flat. Hawaiian Pineapple is the best grown. Every morning, ihe
ones ripened to their ''spicy best" are fathered, taken into the can
