TIE GRAVES WHEAT

A GAZETTE reporter saw q sight
last Saturday that would have glad
dened the heart of any farmer. II
was a field of wheat, ON the G. Z.
Carriger place, near town, the prop
erty of Mr.. w. III. B. Graves, and,
perhaps, the finest growing wheat
in East Tennessee to-day. 1t is a
new variety, having been first i'm
ported here and cultivated by Mr..
Graves in 1879, since which time it
has greatly improved in many re-
spects. The field shown us Satur-
day was sown broad cast last fall, on
average soil, without any fertilizer
Although not yet done growing, it
will now measure almost five feet
high the field over. 1t is double
headed and produces from $50 to
200 grains to the head. One feature
about this new wheat we noticed
with much satisfaction, and that
was, there is not particle of rust
on a single blade in the whole field,
while the fields of ordinary wheat,
close by, are almost ruined by it. 1t
is also free of fly. The stalk is large
and wouldsupport the wheat against
a severe storm. There is nothing
more pleasing to look upon in farm
life than a waving field of wheat -
wheat that will yield from 40 to 80
bushels TO the acre. 1t is a sight |
worth seeing. The variety we have
been describing is worthy the atten-
ton OF farmers. We believe that it /
would pay them to take hold of it.
Mr.. Graves informs us that he will
place some of it on the market this
TALL for sale rs seed wheat. /
