E11gllsl1 n1illcrs and the Com Ex- change have complained ihat wheat from the Canadian prairies is not as good as it was twenty years ago; docs not make good bread, and so on. and [hag even Premier Klng was of- firially informed that the grarlln‘ of wheat in Canada could not be re~ lied upon, and that wheat graded as “number one hard." when l‘. arrived ln England that had evidently been we; 11nd afterward dried. much of it sysoilcd in the process.

It appears that much wheat has becn put l11 the olcvators year after year l11 a frondilion loo wet to keep and in that way SpOllCd.

Still anothcr matter that has cal- led for lllllCh chemical investigation the pmpmalon of gluten, or protein in our wheat.

Two ycars or so ago some of Can- ada's bcst custc111crs began to com- plain that there was less gluten than formerly in our wheat, and that the Russian wheat they uscd lo get was much better i11 that regard than the Canadian. being much richer in glu- ten.‘ (Gluten is that yellowish, r11b- bcry, gum-like substance you find l11 your mouth nfter cl1c1vi11g some ker- nels of wheat for a few minucs.)

Allcf which gees 1o show that a clue proportion ls necessary in order t0 make good loaves of bread. and different varieties, of wheat vary greatly 111 the amount of their glut- en content.

In fact it is not an exagger- ation to sny that his arguments are znnzcllmes buricd beneath a tropical umlcrgrovvzli of confuslng and lrrc- lcvan; verbiage. Let one illustration suffice:
