The World's Wheat Enters.
The Department of Agriculture
gives the following interesting sta-
tistics of populations in different
countries. as estimated for May of
the present year, and also the annual
per capita consumption of wheat in
each country in bushels:

It will be seen from the above ta-
bles that the French people consume
most wheat, and the people of India
the least. After the French come

garians, Belgians, English and Amer- |
icans, in order named.
In explanation of the comparative
ly low average American consump-
tion of wheat it may be said that the
people of the middle West and
throughout the South consume a vast
amount of corn; not so much by rea-
son of its greater cheapness perhaps,
as from inclination and habit. Pri-
marily, corn was the food of the
negro population in the days of sla-
very owing to its lesser cost, and the |
negro cooks in white families no |
doubt were instrumental in intro- |
ducing the palatable corn “pone” and
other creations of like sort to the
tables of the average Southern plant- |
er. This custom still prevails |
throughout the South and has gained
also a strong foothold in some of the |
Mis:issippi Valley States, thus re- |
ducing below several other countries
our per capita consumption of wheat.

A Dreadfully Stack-Up Eagine.
Smithville, in
sounty of Lee, Ga., has a brass band of
some years’ standing. And this is the
story which the village newspaper tells
of it: “A flagman, almost out of breath,
rushed into the Academy of Music
here the other night while the Smith.
ville Brass Band was practicing and
asked to see the leader. He said that |
when the south-bound passenger train,
which is due here at 7:15 p. m., got
near enough to hear the band the en-
gine pulling the train suddenly became
unmanageable and stopped dead still,
listened a moment, gave a short and |
unearthly shriek, reversed itself and |
took the back track for Macon in regu.
lar Nancy Hanks style. As soon as it
got out of hearing of the band it
stopped, and a flagman was sent ahead |
to ask the boys to cease playing until |
they could get it through town. Now, |

the city while our brass fo is play-
