Mrs. McKimmon says, "it is true that soft wheat Hour does not cotain as much of that elastic ingredient known as gluten us does the h»rd wheat flour, be' it contains quite enough to prod ice light, tlut'.'y rods and wholes ne, well risen leaves. I should like to emphasize that statement se that it may never be forgotten. "Ail we need to consider is that the flour shall he of good ru:a;i'y, the yeast shall be fresh and lively, and tiiat the mixinn and manipulation of the dough shall be properly done. "For six months of one y. r 1 pent much time in experiment ing with biead doughs, ising both hard and soft wheat >ur. Results with the North Carolina were excellent. 1 found that i bread dough made from th: soft wheat flour must be stitFer than that made with hard wheat, and it required, therefore, a longer period for rising. "The flavor of the bread was unexcelled, and the lightness of 'he finished product left nothing tn v- desired. Av man need rot fear, therefore, to use flour ground in her neighborhood mills if she will follow recipes and di rections which the Office of Home Demonstration Work will bs glad to send. "! understand there are at present around two hundred flour mids in North Carolina, which produce approximately four million barrels of flour per year. Knough to feed the whole popu lation of the state. The housewife who learns to use this home pro duct not only gives her family a wholesome food, but helps in the great movement to make North Carolina feed itself. "At the annual school and conference for North Carolina Heme Demonstration Agents helil in July, one of the most interest ing demonstrations given was in making tea rolls with North Carolina soft wheat flour, home made liquid yeast, and an egg from the poultry raised on the farm. The rolls were prepared, baked and served to the audience that all might test their quality, and the agents were enthusiastic in their praise of the results." Neal's Saw Mill Almost Burns James M. Neal, of Meadows, who was here Tuesday, reports that his saw mill came near burn ing Friday night. The dressing machine and other equipment was considerably damaged. The fire was discovered about mid night by parties passing the road. The origin of the fire is unknown.

Meredith, j".vri.'tnry o:' nj. ciculture, di»rinj.r President Wil.ovs admini stration, in a s;atement to The Associated Press. "Those WIM gr.iw wheat \- clusivdy or nearly so ami on sequently are ;>^niit»nt upon', the return from their wheat crop almost entirely for their income, ( he said, "have had their incomes cut by the recent decline in wheat prices and the seriousness of the situation insofar as they are concerned is a matter of interest and importance to everv other interest of the nation, labor and business being concerned as well as the farmer. Certainly steps should immediately be taken to prevent such a situation being forci d upon a croup of people who are pr ducing one of our staple products. "The entire income Amsrican farmers receive from wheat, i however, represents but ten per cent of the total income of the farmers a croup. Then that commodity which represents ten per cent of the total income is only ten per cent lower in price than it was ay-arago. It appears then that so far as the price of wheat alone is concerned the present price of corn is a* much eigher than the price for that Brain a year ago than wheat is lower, and inasmuch as there are more than three times as many bushels of corn produced as there in of wheat this very in crease in the price of corn great Iv excei i'-: th" shrinkage in wheat. Whether corn will maintain its present high price I do not know, bit if it dues those who are wheat and corn growers, which is a large number at least, are in no worse situation than they were a year ago and many of them are in much better situa tion.
