Combat An Oversupply Of Wheat Washington, D.C., July 10.--A floodtide . of golden grain. that might drown the farmer in his own produce may be stemmed by scien- tists, who are seeking to combat an over supply of wheat, wo lines of research arp under way at the bureau of standards to erase from the calendar that day when there will be too much ecu- nomic loss to wheat farmers. On the one hand, the economics of making paper from wheat stray is being investigated; on the oth- er, the farmer may be shown he can supplant grain with artichokes, found to be a valuable, untapped source of the sweetest of sugars. Paper from wheat straw has been produced in Europe for more than a generation, but its use in the Unii- ed States has been retarded by ine competition of ®* cheap wood pulp paper. The research initiated under charge of W. E. Emley, chief of the division of organic and tibrous materials, undertakes to determine what quality paper may bé produc- ed, how much be made from a ton of straw and the cost. Results are not expectéd for a year. If the cost of the new pa- per is high, as compared with 'wood paper, it is hoped that the property of better quality will justify manu- facture, One element that may reduce the cost is the concentration of straw, by, improved harvesting me- thods, that makes it more easily secured. The other alternative in the re- lief program centers around the raising of the Jerusalem artichoke, the tuber of a native sun-flower and once considered a weed. - it is a hardy plant and able to grow in the same soils and under identi- cal climatic conditions as wheat. It has fought for its existence through extremes of climate and against insects until it can adapt itself to any condition, Its valuable store of levuiuse, the sweetest of sugars, was discov- ered to be easily procured at the bureau of standards, and a semi- commercial factory is being con- structed at the bureau for the production. A surplus of sugar never has been produced, In relieving the farmer of an over supply of wheat the scientists believe they can alse remedy the sugar situation. Methods of transforming wheat inte other compounds, as a way to reduce the over supply, are uo! considered practical because of the cost of the grain.
