OREGON AND CHINESE WHEAT.--Jus,
" received few sacks Of the above new and su-
perior seed grain, from III. R. Smetzer, esq, OF
Bloomfield farm. The Oregon is red kernel wheat
and the Chinese beautiful plump white kernel
These extraordinary varieties produced Mr.. 8. last
As to so bushels of wheat per acre, weighing
SO to GO lbs. per bushel.
"OREGoN AND CHINA wHEAT.-There have been
left at Office two species of wheat-one called
Oregon the other China 1t taken from the
Bloomfield estate, belonging TO Henry II. Smeltzer,
near Middletown, Frederick county, Maryland.
The Oregon wheat was found or discovered by a
missionary travelling through that territory, who
brought It to this country in 1889. MIR. Smeltzer
this year raised from four and quarter acres, 212
bushels and 43 lbs, which is fraction over SO
bushels to the acre. This wheat is very hardy, OF
beautiful red color, with smooth chaff heads from
to inches long, and average from 80 TO 100
grains the head. 1t is believed il will yield al
least 20 per cent TO the than the ordinary
wheat from tho fact that il has from Is to 20 grains
more to the head The history Of the China whea,
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 US that last year he raised 42k bushels per
acre with it. and this year AZ bushels per acre. This
is q beautiful white wheat, and has heads or ears
about as long 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,"-Sun.
The above valuable seed grain is for sale at the
agricultural store of J. F. CALLAN, Washington
also for sale by J. H. KING, Georgetown.
