OREGON AND CHINESE wHEAT.-Just

OREGON AND CHINESE WHEAT.-Just
~ received few sacks Of the above new and sU-
peror seed grain, from III. R. Smeltxer, ESQ.,, Of
Bloomfield farm. The Oregon 10 q red kernel wheat,
and the Chinese beautiful plump white kernel.
These extraordinary varieties produced MIR. 8. Last
As to SO bushels of wheat per acre, weighing
50 to 60 lbs. per bushel.
"OREGoN AND CHINA wHEAr-There have been
LEFT at Office two new species of wheat-one called
Oregon, the other China. II was taken from tho
Bloomfield estate, belonging to Henry r. Smeltzer,
near Middetown, 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, 212
bushels and 43 lbs, which fraction over SO
bushels to the acre. This wheat is very hardy, Of
beautiful red color, with smooth cbaif, heads from
to 6 inches long, and average from 80 to 100
grains to the head. Il is believed it will yield ut
least 20 per cent to the than the ordinary
wheat, from the fact that has from IS 10 30 grains
more to the head. The history of the China wheat
is rather singular. A few heads were found in a
box Of Chna-ware imported from the north Of Chi
ma; and the heads being very large and compact,
the discoverer was induced to plant them. Mr.. 8.
informs that last year he raised 42t bushels per
acre with and this year Al bushels per acre. This
is a 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, 80 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.
