Even the durums are getting so badly mixed that the durumxmillers state that it is almost ime possible to make a good quality of macaroni flour from the mixture, Another great danger is that the different kinds of: wheat, both hard spring bread wheat and durum macareni wheat are also becoming mixed, and while each might be excellent, when mixed they become practically worthless. for milling.
