OREGON AND CHINESE WHEAT.--Just
" received few sacks Of the above new and SUI
perior seed grain, from H. r. Smcltzer, esq, of

and the Chinese beautiful plump white kernel.

left at our Office two species of wheat-one called

Bloomfield estate, belonging to Henry R. Smeltzer,
near MiddletowD, Frederick county Maryland.
The Oregon wheat was found or discovered by a
missionary travelling through that territory, who
brought il to this countEy in 1889. MIR. Smeltzer
this year raised from four and quarter acres, 2l2
bushels and 43 lbs, which is a fraction over so
bushels to the acre. This wheat is very hardy, of
beautiful red color, with smooth chaff, heads from
5 to inches long, and average from 80 10 100
grains to the head. II is believed it will yield at
least 90 per cent. to the than the ordinary
wheat from the fact that it has from Is to 90 grains
more to the Read. 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 so very large and compact,
the discoverer was induced to plant them. MIR. s.
informs us that last year he raised 42s bushels per
acre with it, and this year AZ bushels per This
is 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
