Greathouse Says That Indiana Wheat Is Unsurpassed.
The attention of Charles Greathouse, state superintendent of public instruction has been called to circulars, in text book' form, being sent to the public schools of the state In which domestic economy is taught, to the effect that only wheat giown in the northwest, known as spring wheat, makes flour fit for use la pastries. Mr. Greathouse said: “Such mation is not only untrue, but unwarranted by scientific experiments. I am confident the agricultural experiment station at Purdue university, would deny the assertions set out in are detriments to our agricultural Interests, and I have advised teachers of Indiana schools to be on the lookout and to prevent tho use 'of such publications.”
