Development of Bread Grasses â€" If all of our cereal grains were wiped off the face of the earth toâ€"morâ€" row we would not be long deprived of breadstuifs, for immediately we would set about the business of developing other kinds of grasses available for the purpose. ® POV ETBAE C We have in North America nearly 8$00 kinds of grasses, only six of which â€"maize, wheat, rice, barley, oats and ryeâ€"are utilized to furnish food for man The cultivation of these six dates | far back into the prehistoric. They have become what they are toâ€"day through processes of continuous selecâ€" tionâ€"that Ls' picking out the best| plants in each gereration as seed pro-i ducorsâ€"during tens of thousands ot.‘ years.

On the other hand, the wheat umll barley of toâ€"day are much larger and' iiner grains than the wheat and barley which have been found in ancient Egyptian tombs and in the buried cities of Greece. As for rice, wh!ch! feeds more than oneâ€"third of the huâ€" man race, there are now a number of varieties (developed chiefly by the Japanese) which are far superior to )any that were known even half a cenâ€" tury ago. * All of our grains, excepting maize, seem to have originated in southern Asia. | It has been only lately discovered that this cosmic dust forms layers at ‘the bottom of the deepest seas.

To an enormous extent the bed of the ocean is covered with lava and pumice stone, and the floor of the ocean is covered in many parts with the dust of meteorites.
