his ordinary field crop of the same
variety. The heads from the field
are about 81 inches long, well filed
and without comparison with the cul-
tivated wheat, would be considered
good sample of wheat; but the heads
of the cultivated crop are nearly
twice as long, the berries are much
larger consequently heavier, and there
is one more mesh to the head than
there is to the field crop. We hope
this and other experiments will he

us for publication. We referred to
this subject last week in reference to
corn; now is the proper time to make
