WHEAT EXPERIMENTS +. Moulton, :
Colusa county, furnishes the RECORD q MON
with the result of some experiments made by
him in Colusa of wheat-growing. The plant
ing was of nine different varieties of wheat
on nine acres of medium soil, one acre to
each kind, late winter sowing, 80 pounds of
seed to the acre. The yield was: First
acre-Red Sonora, % bushels and 50 pounds
second scre-Proper, % bushels and As
pounds; third acre-Blue Stem, % bushels
and % pounds fourth acre-White Sonora,
from Sonora this year,, % bushels and 81
pounds fifth acre-Wilis Early Club, (cross
of Club and Red Sonora), 80 bushels and 80
pounds sixth acre-Danish, q bushels and
30 pounds seventh acre-White Tornells,
q bushels and IS pounds eighth acre
-Genesee, 20 bushels and 50 pounds
ninth acre-Old Common Club, 80 bushels
and A pounds. The earliest varieties, like
Sonora and Wills Early Club and Genesee,
Were slightly hurt By the north wind. The
very late varieties, ike Old Club, were too
late to be affected He thinks the Wills
Early Club frst-rate early wheat, the Cen
esee and Tornells is extra good, and the
Danish tie most prolific (if entirely sheltered
from wind), but that Old Club must yet stand
at the head for late wheat.

REGISTRATION WoRK-Under the work of
registration going on in this county. about
three names are transferred from the Great
Register to other localities, to each name

debris dams and works in Yuba and Suffer
counties, and the large force Of men employed
last year uoon the prison at Folsom were
from other portions of the State, and tempo
