OREGON AND CHINESE WHEAT.-Just
~ received few sacks Of the above new and SUI
perior seed grain, from HI. r. Smeltzer, esq, Of
Bloomfield farm. The Oregon ia a 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
So to GO lbs. per bushel.
"OREGoN AND CHINA wHEAr.-There have been
leh at our Office two species of wheat-one called
Oregon the other China II was taken from the
Bloomfield estate, belonging to Henry r. Smeltzer,
near Middletown, Frederick county, Maryland.
The Oregon wheat was found or discovered by q
missionary travelling through that territory, who
brought it to this country in 1889 Mr.. Smeltzer
this year raised from four and quarter acres 2l2
bushels and AZ lbs., which is a 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 1876
grains to the head Il is believed il will yield al
least 20 per cent to the than the ordinary
wheat, from the fact that ii has from Is to 20 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
MAJ and the heads being SO very large and compact,
the discoverer was induced to plant them. Mr. s.
informs that last year he raised ADJ bushels per
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, mildew or fy.n-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.
