Modern cultivated wheats fiora varions parts of the world comnleto the ex. liibit. Most of the wheats have been acquired through the cooperation of the office of - the Cereal invest iirnt ion of the Department of Agriculture. This department is constantly enifnged in growing new and old varieties of wheat in. order to determine their suitability under various conditions in the United States. - Wheat was first introduced into this eountrjr In 1520 by tho Spaniards and jater into New England and. Virginia vy. the early settlers, according to Di rector D. 0. Davis, of the museum. la Europe and Asia it hns been rrowa , since prehistoric times." Mr. A'ane states The beginning of its ultiTation belongs to an. early period lu the history of the human race. - " Mankmd has" probably always used tue seeds f the wild grasses for food. Borne of these furnish very fair-sized grains -nnd from such our cultivated cereals are unquestionably . derived, thonp-h lxinr.lxtii minr unit nlwnv. Irae them to their wild prototypes. An example of such is the wild Emrarr of Palestine, a largo grained wild grass uitu uas uevn ciuuuuu vy romu.iu oe tl anctster of" our cultivated wheats 'Certain primitive wheats are still grown In places in. southern Europe ... ftuch. are the Einknrn,' Enuncr and Bpelt. each of which probably repre- sents a group of wheats of separate ngm. The Euikorn still grows wild in Siberia, and elsewhere in the South ft Europe. - Bpelfc is the oldest of the cultivated wheats. It was probably the wheat 'of ancient Greece, Rome and Egypt. ' "Together with these simple forms there are to be seen such unusual forms as Polish Wheat, which in spite of -its jiamo does not come from Poland, but from the mountainous regions of Spam; Alnsk-L Wheat which is of the ' tvne known as tne ju.irncia wueai" or 'Beven-headed whent of Errrt": and Club Wheat grown in Chile and in our Hocky Mountains.

The hard spring wheats of tho northwestern great plains region of the United States and Can ada, are represented by Marquis, Bed life and Kitchener varieties . Partic ularly remarkable is a huge-eared wheat railed Dicklow, grown under irriga tion in Idaho. ."Adjoining the wheats at the mu seum may be seen some of the main kinds of barley. Ordinarily the most Ijiistly of the grains among these is a perfc-etly bald variety, which k grown for hay and may survive, as a fodder, loug after cultivation of the others becomes obsolete with the cessation of xnaJt-making.

I de cided to try it l'at- i ruK s day was celebrated nil over the j world, so I shall dijjreatt enough to tell it. In about 410 A. D. l'atrieins a ISeoteh man from Kilpatrick went to Ireland to be a missionary. Ho was a Protestant and labored there for 40 years. He was a great man, and built many cluinhes sad schools, pl.aeiiijr the latter near the churches, the first time schools and churches were huiit near together. One day he was explaining the Trin ity to his people, and taking a sham rock, n species of the clover family, he explained the one leaf with its three divisions, as the same as the Trinity Ireland adopted him as its national Saint and the shamrock ns its notional flower, and green as its thig color. It has always been a mystery why the Roman Catholic church ehiims h'un, for he was a 1'rotes tant missionary, lie is alio said to have caught up all the snakes in Ireland and shut them up in n box, which he threw in the bottom of a lake; but the fact is, that "Bonny Krin"' never had any snakes. The Irish celebrate St. Vat rick's day all over the world and it is an interesting date to remember. On Friday afternoon the basketball ! team went to Brandon s hoolhouse. Where i they played a matched game, resulting in i victory for 1'uion 25 to 9. !
