ata on HE NORTH DAKOTA - Agricul- tural college has :sent its investi- gators to the Main Roller Mills, Phelps, Minn., the. commercial flour mill that has been grinding’ this season’s rusted wheat into flour, and they _ have returned with a quantity of data, which ‘is now being worked into tabular ‘form and is shortly to be published as:a bulletin supplementary to the wheat bul- letins. which have aoiled the big' milling interests this year. These investigators covered the same~ ground that was covered by a represent- atlve of ‘the Nonpartlsan Leader, - as “recounted in the issué of December 7, but it happens’ that they. visited: different farmers, and_talked ‘with different fatm- ers™ wives.. The facts they discovered, however,” were - of. the -'same nature: Everywhere people were satisfied with 4 the flout being made from the wheat, and the farmers were bxghly elated . with the increased profits which they gote The ‘men .who ‘Went were William “Sanderson, miller at. the college, and | William C. Palmer, editor of the agri- cultural- “college . pubhcations, who will haye much to do w1t§ putting the material - -into. form.. They went to the mill and ‘spent & day there! ‘watching it operate, talking: with. W. E.

The wheat is now being ground in the college mill and careful data being com-. piled upon it. . When the run is finished, the flour that Mr. Sanderson has obtained will_be compared with the flour that he brought from: Phelps, and separate bak- * ings’ of bread‘will be made from the two lots, ‘and 'the bread scored for its white- ness, 'lightness, and fineness, The two “lots of flourrwfll be baked in exactly the same way, and when the comparison is complete: there will be means of knowing - how well the college mill stands up along- _side of “the commercial mill in getting results. for the growers of wheat and consumers. of flour. _ The . farmers .will know: whether the: announcements made from time to time by the A.
