OREGON AND CHINESE WHEAT.--Just
~ received few sacks of the above new and su-
perior seed grain, from III. r. Smeltzer, esq, of
Bloomfield farm. The Oregon is u red kernel wheat,
and the Chinese beautiful plump white kernel.
These extraordinary varieties produced Mr.. s. last
season As to so bushels Of wheat per acre, weighing
60 to SO lbs. per bushel.
"OREGoN AND CHINA wHEAT.--There have been
left at our office two new species ofwheat-one called
Oregon, the other China II was taken from the
Bloomfield estate, belonging to Henry r. lSmeltzer,
near Middletown, Frederick county, Maryland.
The Oregon wheat was found or discovered by a
missionary travelling through that territory, who
brought it 10 this country in 1899. Mr.. Smeltzer
this year raised from four and quarter acres 2l2
bushels and 43 lbs, which is fraction over so
bushels to the acre. This wheat is very hardy, of
beautiful red color with smooth chaf, heads from
to 6 inches long, and average from 80 to 100
grains to the head. 1t is believed it will yield al
least 20 per cent to the than the ordinary
wheat, from the fact that it has from Is to 90 grains
more to the head The history Of the China wheat
is rather singular. A few heads were found in a
box of China-ware imported from the north of Chi
ma; and the heads being SO very large and compact,
the discoverer was induced to plant them. Mr.. s.
informs that last year he raised All bushels per
acre with it, and this year Al bushels per acre. This
is beautiful white wheat, and has heads or ears
about as long as the Oregon wheat, and about the
same number of grains to the head. The China
wheat is of the early kind, and, far has not been
injured by smut, mldew, or fy."--Sun.
The above valuable seed grain is for sale at the
agricultural store of ]. F. CALLAN, Washington;
also for sale by j. H. KING, Georgetown.
