No explanation of thia greet
decline in buckwbent raising has
been made. It ia probably, how-
ever, the unreliability of the crop,
which iaaometimes small, without
any apparent reason for the vari-

tunny farmers. Another rseson
for the decline may be the larger
use within the past few years
of cereal preparations, especially
wheat, all of which come under
the general deelgnntioo of hygeinlo
foods. These preparations have
probably won many persons from
